Windows Store is an application store for Microsoft Windows, starting with Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012. The platform can be used to provide listings for desktop applications certified to run on Windows, but is also the primary distribution platform for a new type of mobile app called Metro-style apps (common name) or Windows Store apps (official name).

I have a few questions for building apps.
Can u make apps using c++?
How do I get an app from my testing environment onto my windows phone 8?
Do I have to worry about cross phone compatibility?
paying $200 to put apps on the marketplace is extremely out of the question. I just want to test my app on my actual phone.
I assume you are trying to develop windows phone 8 apps, and yes you can develop using c++, but you have to read up on async await, as the sdk have tons of it in order to give the fluid user experience.
And the last time I checked, the developer account only costs $25 now
Well Yes!
You need to unlock your Windows Phone to actually test in on a Hardware Device.
You don't need to worry about the compatibility, but you should take note of the High-Res Phones that are in the Market too.

Is there a way to install a wp7 app in a surface tablet? I've trie running the xap file of my app but the os doesn't know what to do with it.
How can I deploy my wp7 app into a surface tablet?
I have the "Pro" edition.
If you have a Surface Pro, then you can probably try to install the WP8 SDK and then can probably try to run an emulator, and with a following wind you might eventually be able to deploy your XAP to that emulator.
But there's no way currently to run WP apps on Win8 directly.
Maybe this might come in the next release - currently rumoured to be called "Blue"
The Surface Pro runs Windows and therefore can install Windows apps. It does run Windows Phone and can't run WP7 apps.
It's not directly possible - as another poster said you could try the testing emulator. You might have more luck if it was a windows phone 8 app, because windows 8 on your surface pro is very similar to windows phone 8. A windows phone 8 app can be ported to a tablet windows store app extremely easily, but if you can't do this the emulator is your best bet.

I have windows dev account and so I registered my WP device Nokia Lumia 710 in windows dev center to test my apps I currently building... I have Windows Phone sdk 7.1. there were some sites that you can directly download xap files of known Applications that is free in Windows phone App store. Due to high rates in Mobile GPRS (300Mb for 1 US$ in Sri Lanka and it quietly high in here) I decided to download apps manually and deploy it using "Application Deployment" in Windows Phone sdk.
I could deploy round 10 apps to my device, but after that is giving me a error saying "The maximum number of developer applications on this phone has been reached" as a solution it suggest to remove a developer app and try again.
What's the reason for this?
Thank you
The reason is to prevent what you're doing. When unlocking a phone, you're supposed to deploy only applications you've developed. In which case it is unlikely to reach the 10 apps limitation.
Now, you could argue that deploying free apps doesn't harm anyone, and I agree (except that you don't get the automatic updates). But if you can deploy free apps, you can also deploy paid apps. So I believe it's primarily to prevent piracy that Microsoft has enforced that limit.
By the way, if you want to avoid using your mobile plan, you can download and install apps directly from a desktop PC by using Zune. That way, you're still using the Marketplace, and the number of deployed apps isn't limited.

I just have a general question I haven't been able to find the answer to. If you buy an application in Windows 8 Store(Using your Surface for example.) do you have to purchase that same application on Windows 8 Phone store?
Also if you buy something in Windows phone 7 do you get that same application in Windows 8 Store(Using your Surface for example.) or Windows Phone 8 Store?
Applications are separate, unfortunately, between Windows Phone and Windows 8. Buying something on Windows Phone 7 will give you that app on Windows Phone 8, however.
Yes, the Windows 8 Store and the Windows Phone Store are separate. There is only one Windows Phone Store - it just filters the applications based on the version of the phone targets. If you buy a WP7 app, it will be available to you on a WP8 phone.

I've created an iOS app that supports multiple resolutions and I'd like to submit it to the Mac App store. Can I submit the IPA to the Mac App store?
More info:
I have an iOS account that I paid $99 for. Do I also have to buy another account? I'm not using XCode.
No. OS X does not have UIKit as a native framework, so it simply won't run. You could look into The Chameleon Project from The IconFactory, which attempts to create a UIKit API compatible framework for the desktop.
If you manage to get your application into an OS X ready state, you'll need a Mac Developer account to submit it to the Mac App Store. Signup is basically identical to the signup for an iOS account, and costs the same. See developer.apple.com for more.
Update:
It appears it will be possible, http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/air_marketplace_faq.html
Quote, ...There are now several app stores on desktops, mobile devices and tablets that service AIR developers including Apple App Store, Android Market, BlackBerry App World, Intel AppUp center, Samsung Apps, and Toshiba App Place...
