I am developing a application that can communicate with anyone's Microsoft SharePoint sites. I am new to this approach. I have noticed that there are both SOAP and REST APIs are available to get details of contents from the site. When I am trying to Authenticate the site programmatically, it gives "PasswordNotMatching" and I am not able to authenticate. Do anyone know how can we do the authentication with SharePoint from iOS effectively. Also, I came know that there are different authentication modes in SharePoint, Forms, Windows and Office 365. Which is the mode supported from iOS. If anyone know please help ASAP.

Thank you in advance. :)

Read this: http://sharepointsemantics.com/2011/07/the-client-side-object-model-help-with-headless-authentication-in-sharepoint-online/ Make sure you read the linked articles written by Chris Johnson, following the information there should solve your authentication woes.

Sidenote, you pretty much HAVE to use forms authentication on the SharePoint end.
