Syncing ipa file on iPad1 not synced?

OS X 7.4 / iTunes 10.6.3 / iPad 1 OS Version 5.1.1
My ipa file is not syncing on my iPad 1. I followed these steps:
Go to your iOS Provisioning Portal and download the AdHoc provisioning profile for your app to your computer.
Connect your device to your computer
Drag the AdHoc Provisioning Profile to your iTunes Library
Sync your device with your computer.
Go to publish.magplus.com and click the Apps tab in Publish
Click the .tgz file to download the build version you want to test.
Double-click downloaded file to unpack it, the identify the AdHoc -ipa file in the unpacked folder.
Drag that file to your iTunes Library and sync your device.
Now the app is installed on your iPad.
My ipa file is in my iTunes/iTunes Media/Moblie Apps/....but it does not sync to the iPad.

>Go to publish.magplus.com and
What the **** is that? I don't recall seeing that in Apple documentation.

"Entitlements are not valid" error message when trying to sync ipa file from iTunes to iPad

Is anyone else getting this error message, "Entitlements are not valid", when trying to sync .ipa file from iTunes to iPad?
The issue I'm having is getting the ipa file that was built by the 'Adobe Flash Packager for Iphone' installed into my iPad.
So, I have a swf file that works and was able to publish it into the Android Market. I then compiled and build the same flash project with the Packager for Iphone into an .ipa file. But when I try and install this .ipa file into my iPad to do my testings, i'm getting the error message.
I would like to test my ipa file in my iPad device before submitting it to the Apple Store.
Any help would be appreciated. thank you.

Developing for iphone can be amazingly complicated and frustrating. (even before you start coding). The process of having to create a Certificate, to approving the Certificate, to Assigning the deviceIDs to the certificate, to creating the AppIDs, to creating the provisioning profiles and then creating the .p12 file... is just too tedious.
I solved the problem of the "Entitlements are not valid". The AppID i had set in the iPhone Developer Portal did not match that of the AppID i had set in the Adobe Flash CS5 -> Publish Settings. (ie. com.yourdomainname.yourappname). After I re-entered my AppID and compile, i was able to sync the .ipa file into my ipad.
I wish the error message had been a little more descriptive. Could have saved me a whole day.
I hope this helps others. But my guess is, if you don't set the 40 character device ID correctly, or the email in the signingcertificate correctly, you'll get this same generic error message.

Syncing "file name", were not copied to the iPad because they could not b

Hi,
This problem has bothered me for a couple of weeks. Copied here is the exact error message iTunes delivers when I try to sync a video library over to my iPad.
"Some of the items in the iTunes library, including "file name", were not copied to the iPad because they could not be found."
What is so weird relates to the randomness of it. I have 19 video files that show in iTunes. When I sync to the iPad, I only get about 5 that move over correctly. The others get an error message as noted above.
Does this issue have to do with the files (i.e. attributes, type (.mp4), or any thing else)?
Is this really an issue with the iPad syncing software?
Getting a little frustrated. Anyone else?
Thanks for any help one can provide!

I also get the same problem, this is very tedious but if you edit the song somehow and re-save it then it will copy. Not sure what the problem is at all, tried contacting Apple about this to no avail.

I am trying to sync my 5th gen. nano. However, I keep getting an error message. The message says: The iPod, "whoever's" iPod cannot be synced. The file format is not valid. Don't know what to do except restore factory settings.

I could not find anything on this particular problem on apples support site. Any suggestions would be greatly apprecaited.

You need to be very specific. Exactly what are you syncing over to your iPod Nano? Can't help you unless we know which files are problematic.
Are you manually syncing or automatically syncing? If the latter, try syncing manually.
If you are getting the "the file format is not valid" message, suggest that you check out KB Article: http://support.apple.com/kb/sp569 which will tell you which files are "acceptable."

Error message :"Can't sync. A file is specified not a folder."

My iphone 4 will not sync. Error message is "A file is specified, not a folder". I haven't changed anything since the last time I synced. What does this mean and how do I fix it?

hi
I had the same problem (update failed for normal user, update worked for administrator, but then normal user still got asked about installing the update even though it was already done).
Following the advice on http://kb.mozillazine.org/Software_update#Software_Update_not_working_properly worked for me, in particular to remove the update-related xml files.
good luck

Fonts not displaying correctly in my .ipa file

Hello Forum People!
Been searching around for the following answer but nothing seems to be jumping out.
I'm just in the process of testing my first Developer App .ipa file and the fonts don't seem to be loading correctly. The article pages and standard pages and not HTML content. I thought the fonts are embedded similar to a PDF, is this not correct?
When was I doing my testing via the adobe viewer app the fonts seem fine. Now that I've created all my certificates and gone through the whole process the fonts don't seem to display when viewing the .ipa file using the DPS App builder. The font in question is Bryant Pro.
Anyone got any ideas?

Can you explain a little more about @font-face and how do I include the font files with the folio?
When inside the folio, I went to 'Create App...' inside the folio builder side menu.
At the minute I just use suitcase to store my fonts and open the fonts i need when working on a print or dps job.
Can you point me in the direction of a tutorial which might talk about this more detail? What page does it dicuss fonts inside the 'Step_by_step_guide_to_dps_se.pdf'

.ipa file not running on iphone

Hi,
Apps created by using Flash CS5.5 executed on apple device successfully.
But nw I want to execute any .swf app on iphone/ipad from command prompt.
So, I downloaded simple helloWorld.swf file from http://www.mediafire.com/?bf2f9uii1h1xksb
& using "adt" command I created it's .ipa file.
Bt the problem is that it is not running in my iphone means app icon come there bt launched with white blank screen..
What may be the problem?
Thanks,
Sampada

Although you called it a simple hello world swf, it's not simple. It does show "hello world", but the code it is running involves an RSL Preloader, and it's accessing external URLs. Specifically it downloads a Flex framework file. That isn't something that you'll get away with when making iOS apps.

IOS new version ipa file is not showing updates in afaria

Hi,
I am using Afaria 7 SP 4,
I have updated my application policy with a new version ipa file,
While applying the policies to device, there is no message shown for the updates in afaria application.
on taking the iOS build the build number is incremented to next version.
could anyone help highlight on what could be the issue?
Regards,

Well, first of all, I'm on OS X, not XP, so the control panel doesn't help me :\
as for the automatic update, I like it for all the security updates etc. etc. that come down the pipeline that I don't read about.
Thanks for your attempted help though

.IPA Files not working when I try to install them on my iPod Touch

Hi all
So recently I tried installing a .IPA file from the internet. It installed on my computer fine, I clicked it, it opened in iTunes, and then I tried installing it onto my iPod 4. the blue progress bar on the PC and the iPod were going fine until it reached the end, and I was greeted with a error message saying the app failed to install.
I'm kind of a noob with this sort of stuff, so if someone could please help it would be much appreciated.

As you found out, you can only install apps purchased/obtained from the App Store. Alls are licked to the account the "purchased" them

Unabe to transfer .ipa file from PC to iPad mini....

Sir,
I have an .ipa file in my pc (Windows 8). I wanted to sync and send it to my ipad mini using itunes. All went good and itunes in PC showed my app (Sygia-mapmyindia) in the app section and in the virtual ipad screen in iTunes. But, the app is not visible in my ipad mini...I have tried searching, restarting my ipad but all in vain....
Please help me out..
Waiting for your reply.

I perfer the GoodReader App, as it can reflow the text so it is more readable on an iPod Touch. There are other PDF apps that can reflow text, but make sure they specify the ability to reflow text otherwise they are just giving you the page as is in a very VERY TINY font
Apple's iBooks can display PDF, but it is an AS IS display. No text reflowing.
iTunes can transfer PDFs to iBooks, there is even a tab for that when your iPod Touch is connected to your PC and talking to iTunes.
Many apps allow iTunes to transfer files for them. Under iTunes -> your iPod Touch -> Apps Tab, scroll to the bottom of the apps list, and there is a section for file transfer for each app that supports file transfer. Find your PDF app in the bottom list and if it is listed, you should be able to transfer your PDF via that app.
Or get a free DropBox.com account for your PC and download the DropBox App for your iPod Touch and transfer that PDF that way. Many Apps can get files via DropBox.

.ipa file will install in iTunes and copy to iPhone or iPad but shows as greyed out with "installing" or "waiting" underneath.

Hey All:
I have an .ipa file that is legit and "signed" (at least I think so) but for some reason will not work on any device. I basically drag the .ipa file into itunes app section and it will show there as a working app.
I select the button that says "install" so that when it syncs it puts it on my ipad or iphone. Once I move over to the iphone or ipad the icon is greyed out with the words waiting or installing under the icon.
Waiting for a half a day at one point before I finally gave up and deleted it from my devices.
Can someone point me in a direction as to what I might be doing wrong? The only thing I can think is that its' not io7.1 compatable but that is all I got.
Thanks
Paul

I am assuming you where generating the .ipa file using a UniversalDistribution Provisioning Profile with an iOS Developer Enterprise Account. If so I had the same problem - turned out it was a Certificate issue - what worked for me was when creating the Certificate which I did manually using Keychain Access I left the Common Name field blank and the .ipa installed properly on my devices. Hope this helps.

Install .ipa-files

Hi,
I'm pretty new on iPad2, so I have a question about installing applications.
How do you do this? I have this .ipa-file from my company. It's a beta application, and it's not available in AppStore..yet.
I have iOS5 and iTunes 10.5.0 (Windows). I've googled/tubed this but can't figure out how to install this .ipa-file.
I've tried:
Drag and drop the file over the left side panel in iTunes. The app is then in the list, but there are no sync button to get the app to my Pad? In youtube I can see that they press a sync button to get the app installed on the Pad, but this seems gone? Have Apple removed this feature? all apps needs to go through Appstore? Only solution to get this app will be to jailbreak it (as I dont want to do that..)?
I've also tried to install the .ipa-file through Dropbox/mail attachment...which doesn't work. iPad cannot open .ipa-files...
Could anyone please help?
Thanks,
Arne

Who do I have to give an apple to get the answer on this one?

Cant install .ipa file

Hi, I have a legal .ipa file that's very important for my job.
I paid for it and sent my iphone codes.
I open it in Itunes but I dont know how to put it in the Iphone. It gives an error message during sync.
Thx for the help
Nico

Ok lets try to be more precise:
Im a taxi driver and the app is specific to get taxi runs from my radio-taxi service.
They asked me for the UDID code. I sent it.
They mailed me the app. A .ipa file about 9,9 Mb. I tried to unzip it and I'v seen the Payload folder with the app inside.
I doubleclicked the .ipa file and ITunes opened up. The icon for the app is now between the Iphone apps but the icon is the generic one and the genre too is generic.
Now I dont know how to put the app in the Iphone4 so I set the apps sync to manual and I'v to choose all the app that must be now copied to or deleted from the Iphone. I do this and include the Etaxi driver app.
I apply the changes and sync. The sync goes well for all the apps but when it comes to the Etaxi app theres a generic error message like "was not possible to intall the Etaxi app"
Maybe its not the way to install an .ipa file? Or something else?
Thx again

No folios or sub tile in shared IPA file

This is a follow on to Chris Huber's question posted at 7:52 am today. He has resolved his library view issues and successfully downloaded two folios to his iPad mini. He has emailed me the newest IPA file to test on my iPad Air.
I now have the same problems he earlier encountered. The app downloads to Newsstand, but there is no subscription tile or folios showing up in the library view. The splash screen launches, but then the library view is empty. I am syncing per the guidelines, as I've done many times before on the apps that I have built, but no luck with the shared IPA file.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Steve

Bart,
Here is the link to Chris Huber's original question:

I am using the same .ipa file, sent to me via email, on an iPad Air versus his Mini.
