How to renew Provisioning Profile for iOS Enterprise Dev Licence

Question

I got this message on the client iPad (and mine):

Your provisioning "xxxyyy" is about to expire in 28 days.

My context:

• I use a Enterprise Dev Licence.
• I renew it on december 2011
• On the iOS Dev Portal, for my licence, it says "expire april 2012" (I'm pretty sure it was normal, because need manual renew each 90 days)
• I can see that all the distribution certificate profile linked to that licence are tagged "expire Apr 20, 2012" (this fit what iPad says)

The situation:

• I have a lot of Enterprise apps distributed to client, which are all linked to the same Provisioning Profile (expiring in 28 days)
• I see NO option to just (to simply) renew my Enterprise dev certificate
• I see the option to download or revoke my Enterprise dev certificate
• I'm pretty sure "revoke" and create a new one can solve BUT I just can't break the current app (linked to the actual Provisioning Profile).

Client just can't have to re-download apps.

I can also wait the 28 days, and I will probably get the "renew" button.

But client is still bugged with the xx days left.

What do you suggest?

In XCode 4 open Organizer (right top corner of main window), then select Provisioning Profiles in Library section from menu list at left window side. You will see your profile and buttons "new", "import", "export" and "refresh" on bottom side of window. Click on Refresh and type your developer login & password. After processing your profile will be updated (maybe a clone profile will appear, then delete old expiring one).
