New Publishing Process - is there a guide anywhere?

I'm struggling to publish my game now that the 'publishing' window/portfolio has changed.
Is there a guide or walkthrough anywhere?

Is there an order that we have to use the Generate App, Sign App, Download tabs etc.???

Perhaps I'm being thick - but it was all so straight forward before!

    Also - when attempting to Sign App I'm getting this error:

    The operation couldn't be completed.
    (com.gendaigames.Gamesalad error 3.)

    Is this a GS error - or something to do with me?

    Error3 is a generic catch all error, I believe they are giving better messages in .11

    Anyways, do this to see the real message

    as soon as the error 3 messsage appears open your OS X Console and using the filter option in the top right search for gamesalad. Post your entire output, that will help us and GS determine what the problem is.

    Cheers Jon,

    Here's what the console is reporting. Looks as though its a certificate prob - though they appear to be valid in my keychain. I'm running Mountain Lion, looks like this may be causing people issues when publishing for the Mac Store?

    UPDATE:

    Ok, so i've now deleted my current certificates from my keychain. Revoked - and then re-generated the certificates, and installed these new certificates into my keychain.
    Still doesn't work, same error as above.

    Also just attempted the 'terminal' solution suggested by SSS in another thread relating to this issue... and still it doesn't work.

    Another Sunday afternoon wasted!

    Digi-chain did you solve it?
    I'm having the same issue. I can't sign my app.

    @BravarianPawStudios - no I had to give in, spent a few hours trying to sort with no success.
    I won't be able to look at it again until next weekend now so am hoping someone will have an answer by then - or GS will release an update that may address these issues!

    Did you see the post about the codesign_allocate issue? Some people did solved it but I'm still having the same issue... If you happen to find a solution, please let me know.
