Hello,

I have an apple developer account since december 2011, so i hade all my certificates. But i had forgotten in wich folder i put them.
So i went in on MobiOne Digital Signing Utility and filld it in and i got zip file back. Somehow i found my old certificate and private key.
But know when i try to build my IOS app i get this error:
Error Log: Mon Jul 02 06:39:32 CDT 2012
Failed: Signing certificate/identity does not match any of the provisioning profile certificates.

Hope someone can help me

Best regards
Anders

Hi al_3,

The private-key, certificate and provision-profile are a matched set. If you generated the certificate and private key files again you should request again a digital certificate using the certificate-request.csr that just been downloaded. Then create a provision profile with the digital certificate obtanied previously.

I can’t see your screen and the exact steps you are taking. If you have a standard iOS developer subscription then the provision portal will allow you to create 2 certficates, a developer certificate and a distribution certificate. Don’t waste your time dick’n with the developer certificate. It will expire in 3 months after creation. The distribution certificate is good for 1 year. So pay very close attention that when you are on the certificate page of the provision portal that you select the distribution tab before uploading your csr.

If you have an existing certificate that you want to remove, you must Revoke it. Once revoked you can request a new certificate using your certificate signing request (csr) file. Recall that you will have a companion private.key file; don’t loose it.

Go ahead and delete all your provision profiles as well as they will be kaput as soon as you revoke the certificate they are associated with. Lastly, clean up your disk of obsolete profiles, certs, csr, pk files. I keep all of my files in a well known location. And never share your private.key file; threat it like a like a password.
