LiveCode Forums.

I have a LiveCode 5.5 app that I'm deploying to iPad. I have Lion and Xcode 4.3.1.

Here is the problem: I can drag my .app into the Organizer>Devices>Applications window in Xcode and the app downloads to the iPad just fine. However, if I try and install via iTunes or OTA (via AirLaunch), the install fails.

I've been told it may be a key problem, and I've tried reinstalling the keys with no success. I have two testers ready to try my app but as they don't have Xcode I really need to get the app distributable.

Any ideas?

Sounds like a provisioning profile issue, not a key issue. When you build your standalone, are you using a profile that's been set up for ad hoc distribution?

The main reasons for this kind of failure:

• The app was not compiled with the iOS team provisioning profile. If you want to share it for testing, use the team profile in Standalone Settings.

• The testing devices are not listed in the developer portal. Log into your developer account on Apple's site, click Devices in the left-hand list, and add the UUIDs of the devices that will be used. You'll need to get the IDs from the people who own the devices. They can get it from iTunes or from XCode while their device is cabled to their Mac.

For the second one, after you add the UUIDs to the testing devices list, go back to XCode and refresh the profile. That will update it so it accepts the new devices.
