sorry that didn't work - provisioning/certs is one of those things I absolutely don't understand, but it usually works OK, and when it doesn't I tear my hair out and randomly flail about until something fixes it. So you're not alone
there are lots's of hits on SO about this (ie, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5387277/valid-signing-identity-matching-this-profile-could-not-found-in-key-chain ) which may lead you to this, Apple's doc <http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#technotes/tn2250/_index.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/DTS40009933-CH1-TROUBLESHOOTING_FAQ-WHAT_DOES__VALID_SIGNING_IDENTITY_NOT_FOUND__MEAN_AND_HOW_DO_I_RESOLVE_IT_>on revoking your certs and starting from scratch (this is a step beyond my original suggestion of deleting everything from your local machine) one more suggestion - walk away from it for a while - not that it will fix anything, but if you calm down first you're less likely to throw your expensive Mac out the damn window in frustration :-) On Fri, Jun 15, 2012 at 9:29 PM, Chris_M <[email protected]> wrote: > > No luck.
