I recently filled out all the forms for submitting an app to the app store but the last step is to upload the binaries. Which files should i upload? I really have no clue so can somebody please help?
As the guidelines say, zip the distribution binary (right click and select compress) then upload it that file.
You're going to have to be more descriptive SO much can go wrong with signing. In what way is it not working?
i have made a distribution provisioning file with a distribution certificate and when i try to run it on a device it says "Can’t run on the iPod. The iPod doesn’t have the provisioning profile with which the application was signed." i have also changed the build settings but still to no avail.
yes the distribution cannot be tested, for test you need to use the developer certificate, the distribution version is only for submission to App Store (they can test)
You can't run a distribution build on the device. You should be testing the release build on the device, and then, following the step by step instructions on the dev portal, create a distribution build, compress it, and submit it.
You use it to sign your application. Once it's been signed by that provisioning profile you can then zip up the .app and submit that. -ddn
How big is the zip file? You might have to use their upload tool if its too big to submit through the web form. -ddn
Is there a reason you're not following the step by step directions in the portal? They tell you exactly what to do: http://developer.apple.com/iphone/manage/distribution/index.action
Did you find "embedded" and "codesign" in your build results? Are you using the distribution certificate to create the distribution build? What is the name of your zip file?
