Thanks for the help. I did get it to load and thanks for the tip about setting “Developer Mode” on my iPhone, rather than searching around in the Apple Development site. I must have failed to add a provision for the internet access (wifi), because it doesn’t now, but I’ll just have to check

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

I’d never heard of “Developer Mode” so googled it. It appears to be something new in iOS 16+ (I am still at15.6). Here’s an article that describes it in more detail. https://help.testapp.io/faq/enable-developer-mode-ios/ Mark > On 19

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

Yay :) @Bill I think you can enable Developer Mode from the Settings app of your iPhone. No need to rebuild/reinstall your iOS app. Cheers, Panos On Mon, 19 Jun 2023, 19:50 prothero--- via use-livecode, < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > Folks: > Thanks! That was the problem. I had the

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

Folks: Thanks! That was the problem. I had the “Beta ..” mode selected. Seemed logical, but then I forgot about it. Wow, what a waste of time. Now the app loads to my iPhone. However, when I activate it, it says “Developer Mode Required”. Since I have wasted so much time on this so far, I’ll

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

Good catch Panos, I forgot about that tricky checkbox. It should be relabeled, especially since its behavior is the opposite of what one would expect. Change it to "TestFlight" or "Apple distribution" or something. If Swami hadn't mentioned it once I'd be here with the same frustrations. --

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

Forget my last reply … I am probably just adding to the confusion. I see now in the profile there is something called a UUID, but I don’t think you need to be concerned with it. It’s not anything I’ve ever had to try and track down. It seems to be generated internally by Apple software possibly

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

Hello Bill, Do you by any chance have the "beta version" checkbox checked in the iOS standalone settings? Cheers, Panos On Mon, 19 Jun 2023, 17:25 prothero--- via use-livecode, < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > Panos: > The UDID is the correct one for the new iPhone. I had updated it.

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

Hi William, I believe it is called a UDID (that may be preventing you from googling where it is). Quite easy to locate however. Cable your iphone to your laptop. Open the finder. In the left hand panel scroll to the bottom until you see the iPhone entry with the little doohickey (up arrow)

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

Panos: The UDID is the correct one for the new iPhone. I had updated it. I get the error message when I’m loading the app for debug, directly from the livecode IDE. It’s where you can choose to debug in the simulator, or if the iPhone is plugged in, directly on the iphone. If I try to just

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

Folks: I’ve been searching the web, trying to find where I can get my UUID for my iPhone to check the provisioning profile. It’s listed in the provisions, but I can’t find a way to verify it. I have verified that the Device ID is correct. The only thing I can’t verify is the correct UUID for my

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

Bill, I am sorry for the confusion, I meant UDID, not uuid. In other words, the profile must include the id of the devices in which it is allowed to install your app. You said this is a new device, so could it be the case that the UDID that is included in your profile (I see only one UDID in the

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

Panos: Sorry, yes, I see the UUID listed in the provisioning profile. But this could be the issue. I could find the UDID, but no the UUID. Argg. Apple seems to want folks to use UDID instead of UUID. How can I get the UUID of my iPHone? Best, Bill > On Jun 18, 2023, at 1:53 PM, prothero---

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

Panos: I am re-posting my provisioning profile. I don’t see it in my returned emails, so here it is. The profile in my mobiledevice/provisioning profiles/ library is, from the listing in the ../mobileprofiles directory in the Library directory: Profile Name: waterdetectivev6 App ID Name:

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

Panos: All of the profile items are in my email below. I don’t see a reference to a UUID, but I see in the profile a UDID, which was referenced in the profile setup stuff on the Apple site as the device ID. In the Apple profile setup, they only refer to the (device id) UDID Have I left

Hello Bill, Is the uuid of the new iOS device included in the provisioning profile? Cheers, Panos On Sun, 18 Jun 2023, 21:59 prothero--- via use-livecode, < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > I also tried the App ID: 8ZD6TKFXZV.org.earthednet.waterdetective, > including the team

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

Jacqueline, Thank you for pointing out that Matthias’ stack only works for desktop applications. It saves me a dead end waste of my time. My app is for ios deployment on my personal iphone only. I have used it successfully on my old iphone in the past. I purchased a new iphone recently and

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

If I remember right, William's app is for iOS. Matthias' tool is for signing Mac OS X apps so it won't help here. The profile and certificate are the important factors for iOS. William, can you clarify what the target OS is for the app? AirLaunch makes it easy to prepare iOS apps for the App

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

Hi Bill, apologies I’ve been away from my desk for a few days. Everything looks good to me so I am curious why you are still having signing difficulties. As I mentioned earlier (or may have mentioned) for simple testing on the simulator or your own device the signing that LC does (using your

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

Because I use a distribution profile when I build to distribute from the App Store I can’t install it directly (side load it) onto my own device. I need to download it from the iStore or use the bundle in test flight (Apple’s beta testing application). If you are just using a developer profile

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

Hello William, I suppose by now you’ve figured out you don’t need to code sign with something like Matthias’s amazing code signing stack if you are just intending to test on your own device or a small group of devices. All you need is: (1) a developer certificate, (2) a generic application

I'm thankful every time I use Matthias' tool, it saves so much agony. You don't need to do all the manual stuff outlined in the lesson, just download his stack from the link near the top. Then scroll past the manual instructions in the lesson to learn how to fill in the stack info. Virtual

Re: Code-Signing Frustration

Re testing, I'm curious why it's necessary to code-sign an ios app that I am only testing on my personal iphone. The probable answer, I suspect, is that testing on the iphone is meant for the "preliminary to release" phase, not necessarily code debugging? I also note, that on the iphone
