I am using IPA file for testing purposes ,but some times it gives following error "Signer not valid error" is it due to non jail break? or i have to use UDID
The UDID of the device must be included in the .mobileprovision file associated with the app.
You can add devices through the Apple Developer Portal, and then download the .mobileprovision file. Double-click on the downloaded file to notify Xcode about it, and then Build And Archive the project again. The ipa generated from that build will now work on all of the devices you added.

I created a ipa file without provisional to test the app. how to install this ipa file directly from iphone. I downloaded that IPA file using itunes gmail account app. after downloaded the IPA file I cannot find that IPA file which is downloaded. how to find that file and install that file.
In order to run an app on a non jailbroken device, you need to create the ipa file using a provisioning file that includes your device. Otherwise, it would be impossible to install that file on the device (unlike on Android, where you can send the apk from one device to another and install it freely via email). If you do have an account as part of the iOS Developer Program, you will need to go to the Developer Portal, create a development certificate, create an app ID, register your device, create a provisioning profile that matches all of the previous details and use that profile when running your app on the physical device.
I am trying to install a version of my app on my device.
I have an ".ipa" file and a provisioning file that verified on my device.
When I am syncing my IOS device in Windows it says that I have a problem
"entitlements are not valid".
When pressing for more info it says I must update the device software, and I don't want to do so.
How to fix it?
I have problem with that web because of data in entitlements.plist of my project.
the problem was with the certificate . i made the whole process of creating provisioning file and .ipa file .and changed it to distributing and not developer.
after that it works smoothly
I developed an app and created a .Ipa file and sync it with my iPad1 but the problem is, I am trying to sync the same app in to my other iPad2 using iTunes.
But it is not syncing and showing an error that the App can't be installed and installation failed!!!.
There are several reasons for failed to instal in device.
1.check your provisioning profile contains device UDID of ipad2 added or not.
2.check your ipa file created properly or not.if you feel you created properly then delete the app from your first device which is having same app and instal the ipa again and check once.Then you come to know your ipa creation is correct.
3.one more reason might have take place is ipa may break accidentally.
you can check these steps:-
Make sure that your iPad2 device ID is added to your provision profile you have created in developer portal.
Make sure that your bundle id in your plist is match with the your provisioning profile bundle ID you have choose to build your project.
Second thing you can check if the provision profile is installed on your device on not.

This is a free program to check an IPA file for errors, there's over 20 reasons why an IPA file will fail to install, many strange combinations in mobileprovisioning and info.plist files.
CheckIPA
Thank you
I learned a lot from this site
I have a question
I finished the application is running
webview
But I remain one step keeping the program
And send it to the iPhone to try it on two ipa
I want to save formulas ipa
Thank you
You can't just save an app as an IPA. Only if you submit it to the app store with a proper developer's license will they then distribute it in the store in that format
Running "Build and Archive" from the Build menu in Xcode will create an ipa file.
Stepwise Procedure to create an IPA file,
1.First of all,choose your device as IOS Device in Scheme near Breakpoint tab in Xcode.
2.In Xcode menu,Product->Clean and build your application.
3.If the provisioning certificate is not valid,it will lead to build failed with an error.If so you have to change it to a valid certificate through your project->build settings.Else if build succeeded just leave this step.
4.Then select Product->archive,it will create an archive file in Organiser->archives and open it up for you after archive finished.
5.choose share tab in Organiser followed by contents->.ipa and Identity->choose your valid distribution certificate and click next.
6.within a minute it will ask name for your IPA file to save.Give a name and save it in Desktop.
7.Open iTunes and drag and drop your IPA file in Library->Apps.
8.Now connect and select your Device in itunes->choose apps tab under it and sync your app ipa to the Device.It will install your IPA file to the device.
9.Thats all.Now you can run your App IPA file in your device.
I'm trying to upload an iPhone app binary to iTunesConnect and keep getting the following error message "The binary you upload was invalid. the file was not a valid zip file". I had an app upload ok recently but this app is having problems. So after a while I carefully went through the following steps trying to make sure everything was ok. Any help is appreciated.
The steps:
renamed the project
(Project->Rename... enter name into
Rename project to:) to release name
making sure the name has no spaces.
Cleaned project
Make sure
references in build setting reflect
new app name
Create new app ID
matching project name in iPhone
Provisioning Portal
Destroyed old
developer and distributer
provisioning profiles in
Provisioning Portal, in XCode and on
iPhone.
Create new development
provisioning profile using new app
name.
Install development
provisioning profile into XCode 8)
Build (Release) for iPhone OS 3.1.3
(highest my phone will upgrade to,
I'm assuming current released
version)
Builds, Installs and Runs on actual
iPhone: To me this implys App and
developer ID's are OK.
Create a distributor provisioning profile
using existing Distributer ID.
Install distributer ID into XCode
Clean
Checked that "Code
Signing Identity" and "Any iPhone OS
Device" lines in Build settings are
set to Distributor ID
Build for
release for OS 3.1.3
Check Build
results to make sure code is signed
with Distributor Profile
Reveal
.app file and compress (alt click >
Compress "appName.app")
Upload
to iTunes connect
Gives "The binary you uploaded was invalid. The file was not a
valid zip file"
Here's some additional steps I try: Quit Xcode after clean (or clean all) then delete the Build folder. I don't "Build and Go", just "Build". The AppName.app is generally in the "App Store" folder (or whatever you name your build configuration for App Store release. I right click only that AppName.app file and choose "Compress" in the Finder.
You could also try uploading it with Safari.
It seems like your problem isn't with the provisioning profiles, but with the way the file is being zipped (or maybe uploaded). Try repeating that part, changing details.
Thanks for the help. It turned out the problem was to do with the fact my project folder was on an ntfs HD. As an experiment I copied it onto my macs HD and it worked perfectly. I don't really understand why this is.
NTFS (New Technology File System) is a windows format. You may like to read this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS
Now if you will have a NTFS format iTunes will not recognize that format. And iTunes will support or recognize mac extended versions.
So try not to use NTFS or FAT format for ziping up the projects.
