If you mean the Golden Apple that Eris (Goddess of Discord) threw amidst the goddesses with the words "to the fairest" inscribed upon it. Then the apple was given to Paris, to decide between Athena, Aphrodite and Hera.

Was Aphrodite friends with someone named Melanian?

Melanion was not Aphrodite's friend, so to speak. He was a man who fell in love with Atalanta, but knew that he had no way of beating her in a footrace, which was the requirement in order to marry her. Therefore, he prayed to Aphrodite (in this version of the myth, it is Roman and her name is Venus) for help in winning Atalanta's hand. Because Aphrodite scorned Atalanta for spurning love, she gave Melanion three alluring golden apples, which he used to throw off the race track and distract Atalanta, thereby giving himself enough time to run ahead of her and win the race. In this way Aphrodite helped Melanion, but in no way were they friends. More appropriately, Melanion is Aphrodite's supplicant.


In Norse mythology what is the golden apples?

The tree of golden apples was a wedding present from Zeus to Hera. They were guarded by many creatures in different myths and one hero had a quest to steal one.No it's this. During a festivity, which is the wedding of the parents of Achilles, Eris, the goddess of discord, was not invited. She got mad, so she gatecrashed the party and threw a golden apple with the inscription, "to the fairest". Three goddesses claimed the apple. These are Hera, Athena and Aphrodite. They cannot decide who the fairest of them three is, so they appointed a Trojan prince by the name of Paris to judge who is the fairest of the three goddesses. Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite all tries to bribe Paris with different things. Hera offered Paris to be the king of Europe and Asia. Athena offered to give him wisdom and skills to triumph in all wars. Aphrodite offered him the love of the most beautiful woman, Helen of Sparta, who is the wife of the Greek king Menelaus. Paris chose Aphrodite, and it ignited the Trojan War._____________________________________________________________Actually these are both Greek myths but as the question refers to 'apples' not 'apple' I would presume is is referring to the first story.
