how to install an ipa file on an IPAD

Question

I exported my app to an IPA File from XCODE. I dragdropped this IPA File into ITunes with my Ipad connected. I clicked on "install" of the app icon and pressed synchronize.

I see an icon appearing on my Ipad with an install animation (I guess). The Icon is a default one and is not that Icon I have set. I can see the correct name under the Icon.

BUT: I can't start the app. When clicking on it it writes Installation... under the Icon.

Is my approach worng. If not, what could be the reason ?

Solved:

It was my own fault. I used a provisioning profile for AppleStore insteed of an Adhoc. When creating an Adhoc provisioning profile and archiving the app for importing into Itunes and finally synced it to my IPAD. It worked.
