i have the same problem with my android project ...
i followed the instructions of signing APK , the tutorial is located here:
http://cookbook.gamesalad.com/tutorials/4/parts/20
my project size is 27MB
Note : i don't have problem with my small project (size: 5MB - 8MB)., the problem appears when my project size increased ... it seems memory management problem is in signing APK with MAC .
my Config:
MAC OSX - Mavrix ,
Gamesalad Creator : 0.10.4.1
signing status on MAC : successfully , ok . but when i want to install the signed APK , not installing on many android device , Tested . and when i upload it on market, after downloading it , and just before installing , Says : "Package file was not signed correctly"
really, no one has this problem ??????

@appleGirl91: no way man .... signing operation is attaching your sign to your APK . it's yours. just you must have access it. it's "your sign" . you must have it to update your apps (when you need).
I was having trouble signing, it was almost impossible. I checked on Fiverr and the gig guy sent me the APK signed and also the keystore. He explained I would need it for any updates.
by the way , i have an exception , my own device(samsung galaxy s [i9000]) can install that APK . i am wondering about this exception , because i have tried to install that APK on many other devices with different Android versions , and no success ...
the key in my mind about my exception device (samsung i9000) is :
i have custom rom (cyanogen - kitkat 4.4.2 , rooted) ... and other devices that i tried have not the kitkat and not rooted .....
Its already on the Android market? Whats the link I will download it and check for you.

if you don't have access the windows , and the problem still alive , try to install Virtual Windows on MAC .
