    you don't put it into a payload folder you just compress the file GS gives you and upload that and no renaming.

    Payload is for test flight not Apple

    Can you provide details about the error you're seeing or the message that Apple sent you?

    There's not much else, on my Developer's Profile for Apple, I went to check the status on the App upload, and it has a little red dot next to Status: and it says Invalid Binary.

    Check your email. You should have received a message from Apple about it.

    I never received an email. I've been periodically checking for the last few days expecting one. Should I email them?

    Did you make a separate distribution provisioning file?

  • JiggleboxJigglebox Member Posts: 63

    Yes to both of those, I Downloaded the File that I published using GS creator, put the .app into a folder and named it Payload, and compressed it into a .zip, and then relabeled it with .ipa then i used the Application Uploader to upload the file.

    I have my Certificate, Under Provisioning Profiles it says i have an Active one of Provisioning Type, I created my Apple ID and it shows up under my ID's...

    Do i need to put my certificate, Provisioning profile, or anything into the file GS gives me? Or just submit the file that i sign?

    I renamed my game is that why im getting invalid binary also? Is there a way to fix this?

    Just an update on this. I got passed invalid binary by simply clicking yes on the idfa question when uploading. Even though i didnt want ads in my game, gamesalad will put it in there if your not pro, so its possible to get the invalid binary if u say no ads are in it, because really there are ads "if ur not peo"
