Where do I drop my Provisioning Profile so GS can find it?

Art3misArt3mis Member, PRO Posts: 32

I do have Xcode, but could not figure how to get it to sense my Prov Prof, so can I just pick it up and drop it into a file on my mac? If so, what file do I look for and how do I get there. I tried Finder, but no Provisional Profile folder anywhere. I put it on my desktop and can move it easy. Thanks

    Open Xcode in the file menu click on Xcode/Preferences login to you Apple Developer account click View Details then the refresh arrow and Xcode will update all your provisioning profiles.

    Macintosh HD > Users > Your Computer > Library > MobileDevice > Provisioning Profiles

    Strangely enough, I tried both your ways, but it didn't work. GS says it can't find my Provisioning Profile. I pushed renew on Xcode and I see the file there, under "view details." What am I forgetting to do? Lots to remember here. :(

    Wow, been trying all day, got the iOS_development certificate and iOS_distribution certificate and provisioning profile....man this is hard. My wife an I have been trying but no go. What are we doing wrong guys? please?

    Ok. I spent a week of frustrations on this. Twice!!!!

    Isn't it Xcode that can't find your provisional profile not GS?

    I assume you are doing adhoc?

    In your dev account add app id.
    Then make provisional profile.

    Make sure all bundle id is exactly the same.

    Download it. Click on it. Mine says "add to library". I click yes.

    Then exactly as previous post. In xcode preference. Refresh arrow.

    Devices. Add app.

    It doesn't matter where you download it. You just have to know where it is.

    If I still have problems. I delete all invalid or duplicate profiles. In apple dev account and keychain.

    Try again.

    It's really confusing the first couple times!!!!!!!

    If still trouble just describe exactly what you are trying to do and precisely steps you have done.

    Don't smash your computer yet.

    Hi @gattoman Basically it's making your App ID in the Provisioning Portal, then make your provisioning profile there too, download it, then double-click on it. This will open Xcode automatically and install it for you.

    Now when you publish via GameSalad, you'll be able to find the correct PP to select. Hope that helps you out.

    Xcode doesn't open automatically for me. When I click on profile it prompts "add profile to library".

    But it all works.

    It's all good.

    I hope original poster figured it out too.

    I never use Xcode I just drop it directly into the Provisioning Profile folder.

  • colandercolander Member Posts: 1,610

    I never download a profile I just use refresh in Xcode. From what @BBenk and I have said it seems you only have to do one or the other not both.

    Hey guys, I got a step further, but now this is what I get. Seems like an Xcode problem. Anyone ever seen this code signing error? thanks,

  • Art3misArt3mis Member, PRO Posts: 32

    Guys this is the screen I get now. What button do I push and does it mean I am finished? Click on the screen shot I included plz. A certificate was applied for on the 13th and that confused my other certificate.

    Yes, you successfully published through GameSalad. You can just close that window, or if you set up everything in iTunes Connect already, and it is waiting for you to upload your app, you can click the iTunes Connect button to open Application Loader, and submit it to Apple. You have to .zip your file that you get back from GameSalad before uploading it to Apple.

    If you closed that window, and need to open Application Loader, the easiest way is to click on Spotlight, and search for Application Loader, and click on the link in Spotlight when you see it, that will open up Application Loader so you can submit to Apple.

    Hey thanks SlickZero. I did what you said, but still got a bit of problem. I opened Application Loader and tried to submit it, but it says this (screenshot). What am I doing wrong?

  • jonmulcahyjonmulcahy Member, Sous Chef Posts: 10,408

    The bundle identifier you used when generating and signing your app does not match any app you have in itunesconnext

  • Art3misArt3mis Member, PRO Posts: 32

    I opened Application loader 3.0 and it won't accept anything. I open the file, but Appl loader won't recognize anything it it so I can't import it. Also every time i load a screenshot into the apple screen it says, " iTunes connect is temporarily unavailable, if the problem persists, contact support." O_o

    You need a zipped version of your published app to upload to the Application Loader

    In the picture above that you posted, if you press the "Publish" button it will provide a zipped version for you to upload to Application Loader.

  • Art3misArt3mis Member, PRO Posts: 32

    Hi, yeah I saw the zip file and I tried to import it to the application loader, but it won't let me choose the zip to load it. The zip is not highlighted so I can't choose it. Not sure why.

    There is something going on on your end. Did you completely set up everything in your iTunes connect and when you launched Application Loader did you see the app that you set up in iTunes Connect listed for you to choose. Do you have an App Store Distribution Provisioning Profile attached to the app and not an Ad Hoc Distribution Provisioning Profile and your using to proper App ID for when you published and in iTunes Connect?

    I will PM you also!

  • Art3misArt3mis Member, PRO Posts: 32

    1st, No, when I launch application loader, I do not see my app icon on it, but instead try to hit import button to bring it from desktop.
    2, yes I have App Store Distribution Prov Profile, but its on my desktop, not in file with app.
    3. I have no AdHoc Distribution pofiles. No ads
    4. Yes, my apple is good

    Hey wait, is it because I didn't make a video preview and upload it? I will make one and try. Then maybe it will let me use the Application Loader.

    I got the screenshots uploaded finally. I made the mistake of having them in png when it should be jpg format. But I still cannot get the Application loader to upload.

  • Art3misArt3mis Member, PRO Posts: 32

    What? I can't upload the video till my mack is 10.10.1? I'm 10.9.5 Better update. Will let you know in a few minutes if it works after that. O_o
