Ok, now I see it, but it has a warning (yellow thingy) next to it. Also, when I go into code signing, it doesn't appear. On the portal, it said that I should import some sort of password? What should I do? Thanks!!!
I recommend you make sure you went through all the steps in Obtaining Your iPhone Distribution Certificate... in particular "Downloading and Installing iPhone Distribution Certificates"
Did you download the .cer file? Then after downloading double click it. that will install the certificate on your computer... I think you'll be prompted for a password which you'll have to remember for the future... after this is done, I hope the distribution profile will appear in xcode... Also important, read the section: Saving your Private Key and Transferring to Other Systems... you should keep a backup of your .p12 file...
In the code signing part in xcode (when you go to project edit active target etc...)? there's a warning there?
Then you might be ready to go... select "any iPhone OS Device" and that profile name under the code signing section (when you go to the target info etc...) then build the app, compress to zip, and try to submit it. at least we'll learn if it solves the code signing problem.
Ok, I did all that and it is the same, just to clarify, what do I compress? ie: What file do I give to apple? Thank you so much!
the .app file. When you build the app make sure you have selected Device - Distribution (not Device - Debug....) When you build the project... you should see a .app file under "Products" on the left hand side menu in xcode... right click that .app file and click "reveal in finder"... then you'll see the .app file in finder... right click that file, and select compress... then you'll have a .app.zip file, which is what you submit to apple.
can you post a screenshot of the warning you see in the organizer? Also, what is the name of your distribution profile? remember... your distribution profile is different from your development profile...
Ok, that is what I have been doing. Good. Do you use the little uploader program?? Thank you! EDIT: I uploaded the zipped file (with the uploader program) , but it hasn't changed anything. This is retarded, I spent several months making an app and I can't even give it to apple =( Thanks for you help!!!
You don't use the little program that is called "Application Loader"? Well, I guess I'll try it without that. Thanks!
No. I do it all just using the browser and itunesconnect... I never downloaded the application loader....
NNNNNNNNOOOOOOO, this is what I get in iTunes Connect The binary you uploaded was invalid. The signature was invalid, or it was not signed with an Apple submission certificate. Drats. Thank you!
I get the feeling that you missed steps or something in "Obtaining your iphone distribution certificate"... did you download a .cer file?
so the steps involve... generating a CSR file on your desktop... that is in "Generating a certificate signing request"... then you need to upload your CSR file... that is in "Submitting a certificate signing request for approval" and finally you download the .cer file... that is in "Downloading and installing iphone distribution certificates"... make sure you go through all these 3 sections one after the other step by step...
Yes. I did that. And I end up with a "certificates.p12" on my desktop. That is what I want, correct? I know this is dumb, but what do I do with it?
