Is there any way to test iphone application on real device without paying $99 to Apple?
I'm creating some app's for IPhone and I'm registered as Apple developer but I can't tested on my iPhone just on Xcode simulators. I didn't pay the 99$ to develop for IOS, do I need to pay it to be able to test on my device?
Thank you!
Legally yes. There's also the jailbreak way. If you jailbreak your device you can run applications signed with a self-signed certificate.
YES
You need to register to Apple Developer account, after that only you can create provisioning profile with your device UDID attached
But as you are developing apps, you are going to deploy on App Store for which Developer Account is mandatory. So its, better you go for Developer Account now it-self
Yes. Pay out. Anyway, later you will want to submit your app. Submitting will work only with paid account membership fee.

Can we generate ipa from Xcode without paid apple developer account? I want to share ipa so that it can be installed on any of the iPhone.
Thanks,
No, unless the iphones are jailbroken, you cannot run unsigned code on iOS devices. There's not way to generate a signed IPA for iOS without a developer account. A free developer account will allow you to build an app that will run for 7 days on a pre-defined set of devices (you would need to register any devices on which you want the code to run).
But if you could build and deploy an app without the signing process, developer could bypass the App Store, which is something Apple doesn't want for multiple reasons.
I have registered from Apple.com. Previously I have uploaded app also to apple.itunensconnect.com. I just upgrade my mac os & Xcode and trying to connect iPhone. iPhone is connected to system but in Xcode not showing device name
i am new to Xcode, I have small IPhone Mobile App, I am trying to connect my IPhone to Xcode 5.1 but unable to detect.
In my mac system showing/connecting IPhone. In Xcode not showing?
can any one tell me how to connect iPhone to Xcode 5.1?
thanks in advance..
I would bet that you haven't registered as a paid Apple developer on the Apple Developer Portal.
When developing apps for iOS you are required to register with Apple as an Apple developer. There are 3 options a Free Apple developer Account which doesn't really allow you to do much at all, you can't test on devices, you can't submit to the App Store. There is also the 2 paid options.
Option 1: Is the first paid option for $99 a year which will allow you to create a provisioning profile and submit to the app store Option 1 can be found here
Option 2: Is for more bigger organizations but it cost $299 and can be found here
All the options can be found here
Once you are a fully paid up Apple developer you will need to create a provisioning profile which has your device on it. Once this is all complete you should be able to developer apps for your device.
If you are a paid up developer and have the correct provisioning profile please can you update your question and I will amend my answer.
It could be because
The deployment target is higher than your iPhone version
The supported device is set to iPad

I made a small little app I want to test out on my iPhone 5. Problem is I cant fork out $100 for apple or since its an iPhone 5 I cannot jailbreak it. I really need to test this can somebody please help?
Thanks!
iPhones will only execute binary code that has been cryptographically signed by a private key which Apple has authorised.
The only way to get your encryption key authorised is to pay $100 per year and agree to their developer contract.
You can run the app in the iOS simulator on any modern mac without signing it and without paying any money. Just install Xcode, select "iPhone Simulator" as the target, and click the Run button.
If you can find a friend who has a developer account, they might be willing to sign your app with their private key. Build/Archive the app without signing it, email it to them along with your device UDID and a few other details, they will have to create a provisioning profile and then sign the app and email it back to you. Then you can drag it onto iTunes to install the app.
This deployment method is only intended for beta testing code, so it will expire after some months the steps have to be repeated.
I had developed an iOS Application using PhoneGap Framework. It's working good and well in simulator. Now I would like to test it in real device i.e iPhone 5 with iOS 6.0. I Googled thoroughly. I have two ways: jailbreak the device (not acceptable to me) or bidding the account in Apple portal.
Is there any other way to test my device my application in real device? Is there anybody here to solve my issue?
The official way is to enter the iOS Developer Program (99$), so that you will get the possibility to create certificates and provisioning profiles required. You will also get the chance to distribute your apps through the App Store.
If you are not willing to do it, the other way is jailbreaking your device, which is basically a way to circumvent the need to use certificates for your apps. Your app would then be distributed through an alternative app store like Cydia (i.e, no Apple App Store).
A third option could be getting in touch with an iOS developer friend of yours, and ask him/her to build the app for your device, so you can install it through iTunes.
There are no other options.
You have to register for a developer certificate in Apple.Developer.Then create provisioning profiles and install it. Otherwise you cant install your app in a real device.

I have an iPod touch.
I have a Mac.
I want to put an iPod touch app I write with my Mac on my iPod touch.
I don't plan to sell it on the Apple store.
I don't plan to distribute it to other people.
Is there anyway to do this without paying apple $99?
Thanks!
Short answer NO.
To download an app to a device you need to sign it, and the only way to sign is to sign up for the dev programme
No if you do not jailbreak your phone.
Not without jailbreaking the iPod Touch which would violate all sorts of agreements :)
You'll need the apple developer account (for $99) to code sign your application. Without this you will not be able to install it on a physical device, only on the simulator.
You could ask a fellow registered iPhone developer to help you out by signing it then sending it back to you so you can install it like a typical ad-hoc distributed app.
No, I'll need to buy a development license and you can put your app in your iPod!
Get a guy who has paid $99. Tell him to hook you up with a provisioned profile for your app, registering your device with the app name.
Install the provisioned profile file, and the app from xcode and you still have your clean phone.
