How do I run my app on real iPhone? (i have a certificate from my coworker)

Question

So I've been running my app in the simulator, but now it's time to test it on a real device. One of my coworkers sent me a certificate, which I installed. I selected this developer in Code Signing Identity menu, but when I try to build it tells me that No provisioning profiles with a valid signing identity were found .

What now? Should I request something else from him?

We're in different time zones and I'm losing lots of time getting a reply from him.

Answer 1

This process can be sometimes quite complicated. I suggest you to take easier way to do it, which could be done directly in xcode.

Ask your friend to export his developer account from his computer and import it on yours. You can export account from xcode doing those steps:
1. Open xcode.
2. Open xcode's main preferences.
3. Select account for export, click on "option" button below and choose export account.

After importing, setting build settings and adding your device to development list you should be able to test on it.

Answer 2

For building app in device you need two things: 1. Certificate 2. Provisioning profile which should be linked with above certificate.

Please tell your coworker to send provisioning profile that include given certificate.
