I think I might have a possibility. the following happened to me when I got a new MacBook. I forgot to copy my public/private key pair, initially created when creating my certificates, to my new MacBook. therefore, all of my certificates from the provisioning portal are useless if you can't decrypt them on your machine to sign your apps. if you open up Xcode organizer window, you should see some of your certificates have a warning.
I could not access my old MacBook to copy over my public/private key pair to the new MacBook. therefore, the only solution is to generate a new key pair with keychain utility and create all new provisioning profiles. ___ Shawn On Jun 18, 2012, at 10:52 AM, Chris_M <[email protected]> wrote: > > Yeah, the smartest thing I did on Friday was to go take the dog for a walk, > chat with my wife a bit, play Xbox for a while... man, I was SO frustrated. > > Yeah, I saw the SO articles.
