    public void SendPushNotificationToiPhone()
    {
        try
        {
            int iPhoneCount = 1;
            NotificationService pushNotificationService = null;
            using (WhatsNewAtDbEntities entityObject = new WhatsNewAtDbEntities())
            {
                var activeiPhoneDevices = from items in entityObject.PushNotifications
                                          where items.IsActive == 1 &&
                                          items.Make == 2
                                          select items;

                int activeiPhoneDevicesCount = activeiPhoneDevices.Count();

                foreach (var activeDevicesDetails in activeiPhoneDevices)
                {
                    string deviceToken = activeDevicesDetails.NotificationUrl;
                    int counter = 0;

                    using (WhatsNewAtDbEntities objnewent = new WhatsNewAtDbEntities())
                    {
                        List<ContentCount_Result> count = objnewent.ContentCount(activeDevicesDetails.UserID, activeDevicesDetails.TenantID).ToList<ContentCount_Result>();
                        counter = Convert.ToInt32(count[0].Notificationcount);
                    }

                    if (iPhoneCount == 1)
                    {

                        pushNotificationService = new NotificationService(sandbox, p12Filename, p12FilePassword, 1);

                        pushNotificationService.SendRetries = 5; //5 retries before generating notificationfailed event
                        pushNotificationService.ReconnectDelay = 5000; //5 seconds 

                    }
                    Notification alertNotification = new Notification(deviceToken);
                    if (counter > 0)

                    {
                        //for resseting the badge value to 0(zero).
