Graham, This is from memory. When you are in Apple’s developer portal, you choose the application destination you are targeting, and when you set the capabilities, they are appropriate for the destination hardware. It sounds like you chose MacOS instead of Mobile, iOS. It’s really easy to skip over a detail when making these provisioning decisions. Also, it’s very easy to get your latest file confused with an older one, and that’s what I suspect you did. I I were you, I’d clean out all the old Apple Developer generated stuff and start over. That’s part of the rub. You generate files on the Developer portal, they get downloaded, loaded into keychain and Xcode, stored in your library and in folders generated by livecode, and then it’s soooo easy to leave one of those little buggers to confuse you.
It would be really nice if there was a diagram or step by step procedure that takes you through, starting with cleaning out all files, that results in success and shows where files are stored at each step (who would’ve thought files got stored in the Library folder?). Of course, Apple’s regular updates and security improvements make this more challenging. It needs to be pegged at the grade-schooler level though, so we geezers can follow it. Sounds like a plan for a creative app designer. But perhaps this already exists?? PS. I give Ralph DiMola a lot of credit and thanks for his insight and help. Thanks, Ralph!
