    I spent 30 British pounds to go and get an app published and was stuck with the Icons as Itunes would not accept the dimensions

    I thought they would automatically adjust pictures when uploaded saving us a lot of headache and expense as I have to hire people to alter the pictures

    I see nothing wrong with Apple wanting the images at the dimensions they want. You shouldn't need to pay anyone to resize your images at is really simple. Here is a no-cost option for you using a browser based image editor:

    http://www.sumopaint.com/app/

    Import your image and go to the Image menu, select Image Size and input the sizes you want.

    Yeah, you definitely don't want to be paying for something as basic as that... I hope the whole £30 wasn't just for image resizing. Hell, I'll do minor adjustments for free myself, I'm bored enough.

    Just have the image at the right size using the method I said earlier. Apple does all the rest automatically.

    The binary is not uploaded through iTunes Connect. You used to have to do it through Application Loader, but now it can be done direct in Xcode. Choose Archive from the Product menu. Then Verify the file (the option will come up automatically), then send it using the option on the same menu.

    Eula?

    Can I not find the applcation uploader because it says ?

    Currently, the standard End User License Agreement (EULA) is being applied to your app. If you want to provide your own EULA, click Edit.

    There is a nice document apple offers devs which has a step by step description how to properly setup and upload an app to itc.

    You may want to read it and stop pestering the board with absolutly stupid questions.. its all well documented , aswell as icon size and other stuff ... 786x1024 wtf!

    Maybe you should pay someone to read it to you and then someone to explain to you what e just read.. jeez..

    I am really looking forward to your next million seller app.. This will blow the appstore away for sure..

    For the individual this is complicated
    Create iOS Development Certificate

    The Development Certificate is used to sign a provisioning profile and associate a developer to a registered device. You may have only one active Development Certificate. To learn more, visit the Certificates section of the Development Overview.
    How to create a development certificate:

    Generate a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) with a public key
    In your Applications folder, open the Utilities folder and launch Keychain Access.
    Choose Keychain Access > Certificate Assistant > Request a Certificate from a Certificate Authority.
    In the Certificate Information window, enter or select the following information:
    In the User Email Address field, enter your email address
    In the Common Name field, enter your name
    In the Request is group, select the Saved to disk option
    Click Continue.
    The Certificate Assistant saves a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) file to your Desktop.
    The public/private key pair will be generated when you create the Certificate Signing Request (CSR) if you use the Key Chain Assistant to create the CSR.
    Submit the CSR through the Provisioning Portal.
    Click the Development tab
    Upload the certificate by choosing the file
    Click Submit

    LOL.

    This thread reminds me how I was when I wanted to submit my first app. I totally can understand pinkpurple difficulties and relate to it. It gets worse if English is not your mother tongue. But if you read the steps, carefully, one by one, and doing it one by one with the steps, you will be able to do it. The steps are actually not that clear and not user friendly especially those who are unfamiliar with Mac and iOS.
