Using Apple Mac Developer account for code signing

Has anyone been using their Apple Mac Developer account for code signing and Adobe Air desktop App?
Any hints, tips comments appreciated!

Why would I do that?  I simply want to know, is the binary file I downloaded signed by with MY cert?  I can determine this within reasonable doubt by answering two simple questions:
1.  Is the cert that this file signed with valid (chain of trust and all that).
2.  What is the name of the cert (the identity).
If the Identity is the right one (in our case, the name of our company) and it is valid, then I will trust that this binary is ours.
Maybe this will clarify my question. I guess I could rephrase this question as:
"How do I write a simple tool that will verify a file has a valid signature and will give me the signer's identity"?

  • Is it ok to use two different developer accounts for development and distribution?

    Hi, I am working in a iOS startup company. There are some issues in creating company developer account. But we are not going to submit the app in AppStore, our client will submit with their developer account. So we planned to create an individual developer account and register for Apple Developer Program for developing apps. After finished with the development, we will provide our ipa file to the client for submission. Will there be any issue in doing this or is it good to go? And if its ok, what are the files I need to give to the client for submission, like ipa, provisional profiles, keys, etc.,

    Hi k,
    It's not a problem, and 5GB is better than 4.

  • I just bought a macbook pro and want to use my own iCloud account for my iPhone. How do I sign off of the current account on my iPhone and sign in with my own iCloud account?

    I just bought a macbook pro and want to use my own iCloud account for my iPhone. How do I sign off of the current account on my iPhone and sign in with my own iCloud account i set up my mac?

    On your phone, Go to "Settings", "iCloud", scroll to the bottom and "sign out."  Assuming you have the the account password/security info of the current account, it will delete everything iCloud related upon your approval (don't worry, everything will remain in the cloud.)  Once signed out, in the same settings location (under "Settings", "iCloud") sign in using your Apple ID and Password.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can I create an Apple ID sub account for my kids to use?

    How do I create an Apple ID sub account for kids to use?

    Your best bet is to create an Apple ID for them, enable and use restrictions on the devices.

  • CodeSign error: no certificate found in keychain for code signing identity

    I've been wrestling with this for a week. Can someone help. I have followed the instructions closely to get my iphone app ready for distribution, but I cannot compile my app due to the following error:
    CodeSign error: no certificate found in keychain for code signing identity 'iPhone Distribution: iPhone Developer (my name)
    However, it definitely is there. In my Keychain I see the proper certificate. Furthermore, in the build file my Code Signing Identity -> Any iPhone OS Device is set to iPhone Distribution: (my name) but under "Code Signing Provisioning Profile" there are no valid choices. The distribution certificate is grayed out.
    Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!!

    For the build error, "codesign error: code signing identity 'iphone developer' does not match any code-signing certificate in your keychain":
    1) Open Keychain Access application.
    2) Select the "Systems" tab under the Keychains sidebar and "certificates" under the Categories sidebar.
    3) You should see the "com.apple.kerberos.kdc" and/or "com.apple.systemdefault" certificates with a red x in the icon.
    4) Double click them and under the "trust" node change the "When using this certificate: " tab to Always Trust. You may need to restart Xcode for this to work.

  • I have an ipad&iPhone but used the same iCloud account for both during setup.i now have ran out of iCloud storage!

    I have an ipad&iPhone but used the same iCloud account for both during setup.i now have ran out of iCloud storage! If I delete the account from iPhone will I lose the apps from my ipad?
    And will new account that i set up on iPhone give me 5gb storage? I assume its not as easy it sounds, it never is!
    It is the camera roll on both devices that are using the storage up, and I know I can transfer the photos to a hard copy, which I will but if I can get 5gb from two separate iCloud accounts then that's the route I will take!
    Many thanks in advance for your help.
    Ps I had originally synced the iPad and iPhone but as far as this apple illiterate operator is aware I managed to stop them syncing a few months at lol.thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    I assume that the same account is required on both devices (it would be rather awkward otherwise) and that most of your space is consumed by back up.
    You will need to buy more storage or back up to iTunes instead of iCloud.
    Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.

  • We are a creative design studio, we need to use apple mac pro server , so we can make more than a different user to use at the same time doing different activities, on different screens, is it possible?what is the max. no. of users that can work efficient

    we are a creative design studio, we need to use apple mac pro server , so we can make more than a different user to use at the same time doing different activities, on different screens, is it possible?what is the max. no. of users that can work efficient.
    Appreciate your support and if possible , how to do this?

    If you want to work with Mac OS X, you need one computer per simultaneous user.
    What you are describing, " Multiple simultaneous logins to a single computer" is not avialable on a regular Mac of any description, unless you decide to use Unix tools instead of Mac OS X.
    Server will happily store files for many, many users and provide them to multiple (up to hundreds) of computers at "near hard Drive" speeds over Gigabit Ethernet. It can make the File Sharing part easy.

  • I can't open any of my Word documents on my Apple Mac. The error code is EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT) and the  blame module name is WordArt. The documents are still there, and I can open them on my iPad when I email them there. Any ideas?

    I can't open any of my Word documents on my Apple Mac. The error code is EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT) and the blame module name is WordArt. The documents are still there, and I can open them on my iPad when I email them there. Any ideas?

    Uhhhhh... Thank GOD... Got all of my files.
    Spent some time on the phone with Apple Care... who was great to deal with but actually... not as helpful as I was hoping. It was suggested that I try DiskWarrior 4 to try to recover the files. $108 later, I had no files.
    More calls with Apple Care and they were pretty sure that everything was gone since once the External drive was installed, like a moron, I let TimeMachine go ahead and back up my new MacBook... so it overwrote who knows how many gig that was my entire MacBook.
    I wasn't giving up so I called Maxtor, the manufacturer of the external drive itself. They suggested file recovery software from I365... which is also a Seagate company (the makers of the drive). The suggested I simply use their demo because the demo version would find the files. If it found them, I could buy the software to restore them.
    It found them! Another $129 after and I was able to restore all of them back to my old PC laptop.
    NOW, I just need to figure out how to get the 50gig of HD video files off of my old laptop now and into my Mac and IMovie so I can actually make some DVDs out of them!
    I get that Macs and PCs are different formats but I think it is ridiculous that formatting still means basically just wiping out or at least treating massive lots of old data as if it isn't there. There's gotta be a better way to do that.

  • My old iphone was replaced today, due to faults. Now it will not allow me to use my credit card account for the appstore and itunes?

    My old iphone was replaced today, due to faults. Now it will not allow me to use my credit card account for the appstore and itunes?
    Please don't tell me to retry, or re check my information because it is all correct, it basically says u cannot use thi account due to it being connected to another device... which is my old fault iphone, at the apple store.

    I have never before heard of cards being locked to a single device... but your case has shown me that it happens.
    If I am getting it right you try to log in to your account and it asks for billing information, and when you enter your card details it tells you that the card cannot be used. If that is the case then I'm sorry to say that my only suggestion would be to contact iTunes support directly; the contact form can be found in here: Apple - Support - iTunes Store - Contact Us

  • How do I start using my mac mail account on my ipad?

    How do I start using my mac mail account in my ipad?

    No error messages or anything? If your OE is still running and is using POP, there won't be any email for you to retrieve with your iPad because OE has downloaded the email to your computer. To sync email between your computer and your iPad you need to use IMAP settings on both your computer and iPad, not POP.

  • I have a Verizon and At&t Iphone 4 can I use the same Itunes account for both phones?

    I have a Verizon Iphone 4 though my job.  I also have a At&t Iphone 4 for my personal phone.  Can I use the same Itunes account for both phone or will I need a separate account for Verizon Iphone?

    I dont live in US, live in Japan.. but I do have 2 iPhones, one 3GS and one 4. I use same iTunes Account on both.
    You might have a little "problem" if your payment were by Credit Card, everytime you try to buy something (I mean, try to download something on your iphone, not from your computer) , your going to need to verify your payment... but if u use iTunes Gift Card, you wont have any problem with that
