I have created build file with Development Provisioning , I selected 5 device for that provisioning profile But The Ipa is not installing on client't devices and successfully installed on remaining 4 devices .
Did following things :-
I checked device UDID , it is proper.
Set device restrictions off for installing apps.
Set minimum deployment target to 4.3 and client is having 4.3 ios version iphone
Device is showing "Could not install IPA " and when this alert appears The Ipa file got deselected from iTunes .
Can any one tell be what could be the possible reasons behind this.
Go To iphone Settings-->General--->Profiles-->Click Remove...!
Connect the iphone to mac goto open xcode under menu windows-->organizer-->Tap to Device, find the iphone name and click it's shows use for development button to click and enter itunes connect username and password and Provisioning installing sucessfully..!
Retry to install ipa file...!
Have you send the provisioning profile too, to your customer?
i am sending everytime the provisioning profile with all devices, and also creating the ipa file with that profile.
the customer have to drag and drop the profile and *.ipa file to itunes(doesnt matter if windows or mac).
At first, i have troubles with that, too.
And at the momemt i am using
http://testflightapp.com/ (on the site, everything is explained clearly)
you have to register yourself as developer, upload your binary, sent a invite mail to your customer, he have to register, too. after that his device will be added to your account and you can share updates over the air. he can make updates with testflightapp, if you upload a new binary(he will be notified by mail).
i am not sure if this helps you, but for the future you can still save time and have not check 10 times the profiles.

When I try to install ipa into the iphone using itunes,it stuck on "Installing" and application from iphone disappears suddenly.I have read realated QAs but didn't get any help.I have tried installing ipa after changing my bundle Id ,I have cofigured provision profile correctly still not able to install.I am not getting what is the problem.Please help !
Assuming that you have completed all of the steps setting up an ad hoc provisioning profile as listed here, you should now have an .ipa file exported to disk. Instead of using iTunes, try using Xcode. Goto Xcode > Window > Devices and choose your iPhone. Scroll down to the bottom of the app list and press the + button. Choose your .ipa file and click Open. The app will now be installed to your iPhone. Hope this helped :)
To install your IPA into the iphone, your iPhone UDID should must have listed in the device list of your developer account.
IPA should be made through AdHoc Developer profile Or AdHoc Distribution Profile.
Your Phone should have the same or above as deployment target (i.e IOS Version).
Check these steps and try again, hope you will get success.
Thanks
I developed some 3 apps for my organization and we want to distribute it to some 30 iPads in the office. I am tying to find a step by step process to do it. But didn't find any so far. The methods I tried and failed are the following,
I took the app (with .app extension which can be found in ~/Library/Developer/../IOs_Release) and provisional certificate and dropped them in iTunes library. After that I connected a new iPad (not a registered as development device) to my mac book. Through itunes, I tried to sync the app. But an alert appeared on the ipad showing "xyz app is failed to install"
I tried the ad hoc distribution. First I archived app in the xcode archive and clicked distribute button. A wizard appeared asking for what kind of distribution do I want. I selected ad-hoc distribution and it automatically selected my iPhone distribution certificate and processed and gave me .ipa file. I tried installing it in the iPad by itunes sync and it gave me same error.
It would be great to get steps for in-house app distribution since they are nowhere to be found.
Check out my answer to another person's SO question HERE
This assumes that your organization is setup with an Enterprise developer account.
There is a project called iOS Beta Builder, check the below links:
Introducing iOS Beta Builder
iOS Beta Builder GitHub page
iOS Beta Builder Mac AppStore
The provisioning profile used for the adhoc build must have a reference to the 30 devices.
Go to the Provisioning Portal and add all 30 devices under the Devices section.
Then add those devices to the adhoc provisioning profile (Provisioning, Distribution).
Once added, download the updated provisioning profile and install it in Xcode. Delete any previous profile.
Build and Archive the app. Make sure the archive build is properly setup to use your adhoc provisioning profile.
Use the Organizer to save the ipa file from the archive build.
Drop the ipa file into iTunes. Now sync each of the 30 devices to include the app.
Xcode - Product -> Archive
Distribute -> (Select) Save for enterprise or Ad-Hoc Development (Next)-> Code sign identity (select your profile)-> save File on disk -> distribute project.ipa file.
I am working on an iPhone application for a customer. After the development will be finished the application will be on the Apple Store, but meanwhile during its development, on a regular basis the customer wants to see and install the application on his own phone to check the current status of the development.
-I went to the provisioning portal registered my customer's device udid and added to my application's provisioning profile.
-I downloaded the provisioning profile and installed it.
-I then built the ipa and sent it to my customer.
SHouldn't this be enough?
The customer is experimenting a sync error. He can import the ipa inside itunes but at the end of the sync he receive this error alert on his iphone.I tested this ipa file on two other iphones and is working (both registered and one is ios 5.1 and the other 5.0.1)..Where should I check for misconfigurations?
I'm running the latest xcode version 4.3.1
Make sure you build with the distribution provision. I use a new Xcode build configuration for this (called Ad Hoc) and I make sure my archive build uses this new build configuration. The customer will need a copy of this distribution provision (which he double clicks), and you send him the ipa file. He drags this into his iTunes library and he is then able to install the app to his device.
Sometimes the provisioning profile needs to be installed on the device separately. I encountered this problem once with my team member who had Windows.
Just send your customer the profile and ask to install it on the device.
You may need iPhone Configuration Utility to install the profile on the device.
I changed the version number to a higher version in my iPhone app. When I run the application from XCode, it runs successfully. But When I try putting it on my device from iTunes, installation failed.
Any ideas?
I have gotten this error before. It happened because I signed the build and the IPA with different keys by mistake. You need to be sure the one in your build settings matches the one you use to sign the IPA when you make it from the archive. Also of course they both need to be adhoc certificates,
You need to delete the Profile that is present In settings>General>profiles there delete the profile that belongs to your app also delete the app from the iPhone and download a profile form developer.apple yourAccount then drag and drop on the desktop and double click it and then drag and drop both ipa nad that profile in to the iTunes then sync the app will install now
I want to show my app to the client without submitting to the app store. I was following the below instructions. But my app doesn't display in iTunes. Could you please help me?
Login to the iPhone developer portal website.
Add their iPhone UDID to the list of devices. Generate a provisioning profile that includes your own test phone and theirs. Download the file (ends with .mobileprovision).
Double-click it to install it on your development machine. Quit and restart Xcode, then set your code signing identity to the name of this profile. Build the binary.
In the left side of Xcode "Groups & Files" bar look for Products (may need to expand the folder).
Select {yourapp}.app. Right click and choose 'Reveal in Finder.' Now take that .app file and the .mobileprovision file you downloaded, zip them both up and send it to the client.
They will need to unzip the archive, then drag-drop the .app and .mobileprovision onto their iTunes and sync the phone. Your app should show up and run.
The portal site has more detailed instructions, but this is basically it in a nutshell.
TestFlight is a great free service to do most of the hard work here for you. Follow these instructions for generating an IPA file and distribute it to whomever you like, without having to go through iTunes.
You still have to follow steps 1, 2 and 3 from your existing instructions.
First create distribution profile using apple developer portal you can follow this tutorial.

After installing profile follow this to create a binary that you will send to you client.
