IPhone Development / Mobile Provision certificate

Hi I'm trying to set up my ipod touch to start testing my apps on it. I'm following the instructions from the portal but when i load the provisioning certificate into the organizer I get the " A Valid Signing Identity Matching This Profile Could Not Be Found On Your Keychain" alert.
Why does this alert occur and how do I rectify it.
Thanks

Hi New Developer, and welcome to the Dev Forum!
Your Development Certificate and/or Private Key may not be installed correctly. As a first step I would recommend returning to the Portal and reviewing the instructions under Certificates->How To.
Check under Certificates->Development to see if you have a valid Certificate. Also check your keychain by opening the Keychain Access app (in the Applications->Utilities folder). Select "login" from the upper-left Keychains panel, and "Certificates" from the lower-left Category panel. Make sure something like "iPhone Developer: your name" is listed in the right-center table. You should also find a listing for an "Apple Worldwide Developer Relations" certificate. Next select "Keys" from the Category panel and see if a private key is listed with the same name found in your certificate.
If you don't find one or more of the above items, repeat all of the How To instructions.
Hope that helps!

Accepted as iPhone Developer Paid No Certificates?

Guys,
I'm looking for some assistance.
I received the acceptance email and paid my $99. A confirmation email soon followed with my purchase information.
This email contained a link to the Apple Store (where I can see that I have purchased the iPhone Developer Program) but there is no link to download the Certificates?
No that i've paid how can I get my SDK apps on to my device?
Thanks

Dam-n you ImmersiveGamez
I paid my $99 about 35 hours ago and i'm still waiting. (I paid through the Apple UK site, if that makes a difference).
I believe from reading on this site that i'm waiting for either an email from Apple with the next steps or my Developer webpage to be updated.
I just want to test my app on a device!

No certificate for identifier "iPhone Developer"

Hi,
I have a problem, although I successfully registered as a iPhone Developer I cannot test my applications on my iPod Touch. I get the build error: +no certificate for identifier "iPhone Developer"+...
When I first connected my iPod Touch to my Mac when I had opened Xcode, I got promted If I wanted to use it as a developing device. I clicked on "no", thinking I would be asked the next tme again but I was never again asked. How do I configure my iPod Touch so that I can develop on it?
The only relating certificate in my tool chain is called:
"+Apple Worldwide Developer Relations Certification Authority+"
But putting this in the info.plist file as "Any iPhone OS Device" doesn't help either, nor does my name do.
Thanx for any help!
cheers Sebus

Hi,
now after installing the beta 7, I get this message when I try to build on the iPodTouch:
"+No provisioned iPhone OS device is connected.+"
My iPod Touch is connected...
I know this is very basic but I want to start get going and not be held up at this stage...
thank you very much!

Developer Application Provisioning Issues -- Only one app at a time?

_The upshot:_
You can have one and only one developer provision and developer application on the iPhone at a time otherwise you get installation errors (i.e. 0xe8000001).
_To fix:_
Use Xcode Organizer to ensure that you have one and only one application and provision installed to the iPhone that uses your developer certificate.
_To any Apple people:_
If I am wrong about any of this, please let me know. I have wasted 3-4 days over the past 2 weeks due to these issues, and any explanation would be well received! Having one and only one application and provision installed to the iPhone fixed the 0xe8000001 issues for me.
_Long winded explanation:_
It turns out that I am working on multiple iPhone applications at the same time.
Each application has a different AppID (as registered on the iPhone Developer Portal).
I have spent quite a bit of time having major issues with Developer Provisioning and application installation from within Xcode and Xcode Organizer, which led me to not be able to debug my application on a live iPhone.
I finally discovered my problem: I can only have one app and one provision on the iPhone that uses the same developer certificate.
When swapping between Xcode projects if I remove all provisions and applications using Organizer and re-add only the provision of the application I am working on, then the install errors at build time go away.
Samples of install errors that manifest themselves using the 0xe8000001 code:
Thu Aug 21 16:56:02 unknown mobileinstallationproxy[770] <Error>: entitlement 'application-identifier' has value not permitted by provisioning profile
Thu Aug 21 16:56:02 unknown mobileinstallationproxy[770] <Error>: verify_executable: Could not validate signature: e8008016
-- Taken from the Xcode Organizer Console window for my development iPhone --
These errors seem to be occurring because of an install time check against the installed provision files to verify the app, and it seems the provision from an already installed application is being used.
This is probably occurring because the main developer certificate has to be the same between the 2 applications. As the scan through the provisions is occurring, the certificate of the new app matches the certificate from the already installed app, and the provision check fails due to different App IDs.
There is one and only one developer certificate allowed per iPhone Standard program.
I hope that this helps some other people out there with their development provisioning and debug / installation errors.

This is why you should create a wildcard developer certificate (com.youcompany.*)...follow the directions in the program portal. Then you can then install all your apps on your phone.

IPhone Developer software Standard

Ok SO i got the iPhone Developer Software Standard. But having issues activating it in Xcode. So i went to the Developer Portal, and made a certificate for Developing and Distribution, and downloaded them. But every time i click build and run, it says that No Provisioning profiles found for iPhone Developer.
Do i not put a name on the Common name? Because when i do it appears on keychain as iPhone Developer:Ed Kraus

figured out myself

IPhone Developer Program Portal

Im at the portal and it has 7 leftside options:
Home - starting point which has a provisioning assistant button
Team - im the only one anyway so this is easy
Certificates - ive uploaded my CSR and downloaded the issued keys for Developer & Distribution
Devices - Ive registered my device's ID
AppIds - CONFUSING - do i need to create an AppID for each app i want to upload? Or what is this for? And how do i choose its name? because if its required for every app, then i would do something like FirstAppNameXXXX and then for another app i would do SecondAppNameYYYY...but if this is just one ID i need to create it would be diffnt...
Provisioning - CONFUSING - its asks me to create a profile name, check the certificate to use and then an AppID so i guess AppIDs are not optional. So do i need to create an AppID and a provisioning profile for each app i upload?
Distribution - i guess this is the final step...so ill get to it when i clear up the previous 2 which have me a bit confused
I would like to know whats next so i can upload, first a free app, and then a paid version of it.

Follow the process in this pdf...
iPhone Developer Program
Standard Program Portal User Guide for iPhone OS 3.1 Version 2.5
• AppID: One for each app is my method, but you can create a global ID if you like...see the PDF above. Not optional if you expect to go into the store.
• Provisioning is for testing on a device - I use one profile but again, multiple IDs.
• Distribution is for uploading to the store
I suggest you don't waste time doing two apps, and work to design a free app that has in-app purchasing instead.
Good luck in any case and be sure to check the portal for additional resources, how-to videos, etc.

DPS app builder doesn't accept mobile provision files

On p.45 of the "step-by-step" guide it says:
" if your mobileprovision files are not accepted, go back to the Apple developer site and re-create them. "
I tried that a hundret times now but still the same problem, am I missing something?
please help!

@buglegirl101
Is your error message also the same as posted by someone above? If yes, generate your mobile provision file from another App ID and not from the App ID which end with *(asterisk). App ID which ends in * is a wildcard App ID used to create Enterprise signed app only. If you don't have an App ID created yet beside the App ID that ends in *(asterisk), use the "create new App ID" button to create one. And then generate your certificates with the new App ID you just created.

Provisioning Certificates Requests (How Many?)

Do I need to request a provisioning certificate for every version of my App that I upload to the App Store?

From the 'iPhone Developer Program User Guide Standard Program v1.1 PDF':
If you wish to build and distribute multiple applications, it is necessary that you create a wildcard App
ID in the Program Portal with only an asterisk in the Bundle Identifier field. This wildcard App ID must
be included in a single Distribution Provisioning Profile that will be used to build all of your
applications.

Push enabled distribution mobile provisioning cert rejected by App Builder

Hi *,
with the first app using push notifications we struggled in DPS App Builder 2.6.0.
The distribution provisioning profile detail view on developers.apple.com lists 'Enabled Services: Push Notifications, In-App Purchase, Game Center'.
The development provisioning profile states exactly the same.
APNS certs are set, push is enabled and Adobe Push Server selected.
Using these distribution provisioning profiles in the App Builder with push messages activated, the App Builder accepts the development profile but does not accept the distribution profile as push enabled provisioning profile! (red box, message stating a push enabled profile must be used).
Any idea where to start searching or why a profile with Push Notifications enabled is not accepted?
Thx
Holger

Just deleted all mine and started again, generated new app id with push active, new mobile provision files and new Push production and development .p12's and I am getting the same problem.
According to DPS app builder my push production APNS certificate is not valid! see screenshot below, driving me mad at the moment!!!
I cannot save my progress in DPS app builder as it will not accept the certificate so need to leave it open till I get it to work.

When is Apple going to open up the iPhone Developer Program?

I signed up for the iPhone Developer Program almost as soon as one could sign up for it. I was one of the unlucky many who got the "you are not important enough to let into the Developer Program" e-mail. That was months ago when the rumor was that they would be opening it up around the time of the WWDC. Well, it is now WWDC time. Is there any more info on this?
Why don't I use the iPhone Simulator? The iPhone Simulator does not simulate the accelerometer very well (i.e., it does not simulate it at all) and the accelerometer is important for my app. I can't even tell if my app is feasible without running some test code so that I can get a real world sense of how well the accelerometer works.
Between this and the significant issues that I am having with my MBP and Apple's lack of response, I am starting to feel that I picked a bad time to start doing Apple development.

Excuse me, but Apple clearly has decided that some application developers are more important than others. The App Store is opening up next month and I don't think they will be selling apps that haven't been QA'ed on real devices. Oh, I get it. All of the big name mobile software vendors that Apple wants to display in their App Store just happened to get randomly selected.
"Apple has no way of knowing who has real apps ..." Well, I told them that I did. I even told them that it uses the accelerometers, so the simulator wouldn't help.
You note that Apple says that there are 21k developers in a holding pattern. What is it about the iPhone Developer Program that stops Apple from just taking people's money and issuing them cookies (or whatever) that allows the downloaded SDK to load apps on real devices? Inviting people over to your house to install your app on their iPhone/iPod touch is not a very good distribution model; the App Store is needed for distribution. The limiting factor is the gatekeeper for the App Store, not a SDK that can run code on real devices. So, why don't they freely distribute a SDK that can run code on real devices?
After telling the world "look, a SDK for the iPhone" months ago, why can't Apple even give a date to 21k people who took the time to sign up for the Program when they might be able to run their apps on real hardware?
I want to do things the right way (through Apple's SDK) and I really don't like the idea of jailbreaking, but right now that seems like the only option that I have to proceed with my app development.

Information about IPhone developer registration process and other license i

Hi All,
I am an iPhone Developer since 6 moths, I have developed many application on iPhone SDK, but I still don't have apple certificate for development and don’t know how to register for that too. I am using iDeneb 10.5.4 and 10.5.6 for development.
Please let me know the process to registration to post my application in apple store or any other method to distribute it.
Is the license version of Mac OS X is required for iPhone development or I just need to get iPhone developer certificate from apple only, which is available with 2 options $99 and $299??
Thanks,

http://developer.apple.com/iphone/program/ has all the information you need on how to become an official developer for the iPhone.

Iphone 6 mobile site set up

Hello,
I have a few question and I was hoping someone could help.
My first is what do I set up my mobile site to pixel wise? Apple says is 1334 x 750 would I lay it at half that size and use the HIPD 2X setting to double it? What about the PPI? 326?
Also, my mobile site is an extension of my portfolio and all my samples are mostly horizontal so is there a way to get the site to fall with the full frame when turned horizontally. It works fine now but you have to slide the sample to the center of the screen which works great because it is large enough to see and it is the same proportions.
Thanks.

Apple gives you all that:
http://www.apple.com/iphone/compare/
For accuracy work in pixels based on your screen resolution.
You can always take a screen snap on your phone to use as a guide and there are plenty of wireframes available for iPhone development.

Iphone development on PPC

Hi - I have a Powerbook G4 that I want to try and do some iPhone development on. Is there a definitive guide for installing on this hardware? I haven't found anything yet that applies to the non-beta builds of XCode. I tried following this guide but it didn't work for me:
http://www.tbradford.org/2008/03/iphone-sdk-beta-2-possible-ppc-fix.html
Since they weren't installed automatically, I installed all the iPhone packages separately and made the change to the xcspec file, but when I attempt to build I still get an error stating that i386 is the only valid architecture to build on. Is there something else I need to do? I'm an experienced developer but very new to the Mac platform, so please keep that in mind for any response you might have. Thanks.
Oh, and if topic is taboo I apologize in advance.

Hi All!
I want to develop some iPhone applications for my company to show them finally how good the iPhone is in compare to develop some applications for Windows Mobile.
Thing is.. i've got an iBook G4.
Even that I want a MacBook, I can't afford me a new one (or used) in the next year.
I already run the newest xcode and iphone simulator and followed the steps described in http://3by9.com/85/ and http://www.tbradford.org/2008/03/iphone-sdk-beta-2-possible-ppc-fix.html.
When I go "Build and Go" xcode compiles without any error, iphone Simulator starts, but then i got a message.. can't install (or start) application to iphone simulator.
iPhone simulator shows no content too! When i reset the iphone simulator by menu, the home screen appears.
Has anyone an idea?
Do I have to downgrade to a beta version of iPhone SDK?
Thanks,
Kind regards,
Harry

IPhone Developer certification Exam

Is there any certification exam for iPhone developer to improve my objective-c preparation and certificate it?
Many other languages have these type of exams (JAVA, .NET) in several forms and difficulties.
Does Apple provide them? If yes, where I can find a certification exams summary?
thanks

I'm not aware of any certification exams specific to iPhone except for those which are part of training courses (some of which are worth looking into, btw), but this SO thread might be helpful: [Have any Professional course (certification program) for iPhone developer?|http://stackoverflow.com/questions/645667/have-any-professional-cour se-certification-program-for-iphone-developer].
Many other languages have these type of exams (JAVA, .NET) in several forms and difficulties.
It might help to make a distinction between languages and platforms. The iPhone is a platform. Native iPhone apps require programming the Cocoa API, which requires Obj-C, but lots more besides. That said, yes, there are indeed many certification exams for other platforms.
Does Apple provide them? If yes, where I can find a certification exams summary?
As above, I think the answer is no (not yet), but here is the summary: [Apple - Certification Programs|http://training.apple.com/certification/all].

IPhone developer sertificate question

I' ve bought "Iphone developer program standard" and created development sertificate
When I load generated sertificate to keychain it's title became 'Alex Dolton (P7DFFT456H)'
What is 'P7DFFT456H' ?
Do I need my name Alex Dolton (P7DFFT456H) instead of simply 'Alex Dolton' ?
Is it correct title ?

alistamobiles wrote:

Based on that being a 10 character string, I'd say it's the prefix that is part of the App ID.
From the Portal/Certificates/App ID section:
"Each App ID consists of a universally unique 10 character “Bundle Seed ID” prefix generated by Apple and a “Bundle Identifier” suffix that is entered by a Team Admin in the Program Portal. The recommended practice is to use a reverse-domain name style string for the “Bundle Identifier” portion of the App ID. An example App ID would be: 8E549T7128.com.apple.AddressBook.
