I'm trying to develop a WP7 app that will download email periodically from exchange server. I was planning to use WP7 schedule task for this, but it doesn't execute in each interval. So wanted to know how WP7 email client talk to exchange server?
Is there any API/SDK available for Activesync to use in WP7.
--Thanks in advance.
No, Microsoft did not provide the APIs to third-party developers.
for now there is no API to exchange ews for windows phone. But on the exchange server you can create your own web service using EWS Managed API

and on the windows phone use this Web Service

Is there a way to implement skype API in C# or any other language.
I was using Skype4com.DLL but it is deprecated not working with the skype latest updates. I was using it in a Skype plugin(windows application) to log in and make calls. As an alternative, I thought UCWA Skype Web SDK would be the best solution, but it serves a different purpose.
There are companies that are still using it like https://www.minutizer.com/. I can't figure out the way they are able to detect calls and messages.
Help needed! Thanks
According to: Skype Developer Platform supported topologies you can choose from:
You can also choose to use Lync SDK -
By using Lync 2013, a developer can provide instant messaging (IM),
voice, video, application sharing, and meeting session functionality
in a custom client or LOB application
Skype has discontinued the desktop API in 2013. As a result, you wouldn't find any libraries supporting skype programmatically. That's the reason for deprecating libraries like Skype4com and Skype4Java.

The best option for you to implement voice, SMS or video calling is to use a service like Twilio or Plivo which are having wide support for many programming languages including C#.
I want to allow user to be able to edit office documents online within the web application.
I have come to know that I can do it easily by installing Web App Server
But it requires a separate isolated server for installing it. Or I need to install it on virtual machine.
I was wondering if is there any api available (which already have Web App Server installed on it), which I can use directly with my web application to fulfill my requirement?.
The web-based Office document editing is achieved by implementing MS-WOPI protocol. The protocol consists of three parties - a WOPI Server (app serving the files...typically your app or SharePoint), a WOPI Client (Office Web Apps) and a client browser.
Unless you want to implement your own WOPI client (which should be possible but I haven't seen anyone trying to go that path) you have to use Office Web Apps or its younger brother Office Online Server.
I'm trying to develop a Android app which transfers mobile specific information like Text messages or Files from any Android mobile to a cloud. Can I know the process of data transmission from an Android device to a cloud. As a developer how can I proceed and integrate it with cloud.
I am assuming you are talking about using cloud database providers for your android application and not setup up or your own cloud database, you have to be specific what cloud database provider(s) that you are interesting in.
I suggest you to try Dropbox. Dropbox has a very easy to use set of APIs.
Drop-ins: you do not have to do anything (component base)
Sync Api: very easy to use and pretty much handle everything for you.
core API: more flexible, since it is designed for server, you have to write your own nano http server to handle oauth2 authentication's url redirection or your users have to copy "authorization codes" manually from browser.
I suggest you use Sync Api.
I am using sync API for my Android App (EPass PM) and use core API with nano http server to handle OAuth2 for desktop version.
Here is the link to Dropbox api

I have desktop app on server, that can be used by clients via Microsoft RDP or RemoteApp or Citrix ICA. And now i need to somehow interact with REAL user desktop from that application running on server in RDP/RemoteApp/ICA session.
Is there exists some server-side API in Microsoft RDP/RemoteApp or Citrix ICA that can be used to implement this?
My app is currently written in C#, but i can easily use COM/WinAPI if needed.
Yes, on Citrix you can use the Virtual Channel SDK:

Microsoft also has something similar if you want to use RDP:

How do I create a client for the facebook chat for windows 7? I know that you have to use a Jabber / XMPP, but sockets are not compatible with wp7, how can I do? Thanks
You could wait for the Mango release with (some) socket support. Your other option would be to have your WP7 app talk to a server that you own, which then brokers the Jabber/ XMPP calls to FaceBook for you.
