Make an .IPA for iPhone and iPad


As I had asked this question already and didn't get the answer that I needed, the problem is as follows:

I developed a game for both iPhones and iPads. Everything is working fine but now I want to Archive my project. As I already have signed in for an Apple account, the problem is I don't have another device to register with.

And, according to Apple's terms and condition "Creating a provisioning profile requires one or more devices to be registered with your Account."

Is there any way we can get it done without costing any money?

Solution

  • You mentioned in the comments that the purpose of the archive is to send the IPA to someone else. For that to work, the app needs to be provisioned for the device it's going to run on - that other person's device.

    So, ask that person for their device UDID (that they can get from iTunes), then register it in your account in the apple developer portal member center and build using that.

    It should be an ad-hoc configuration that you create.
