With Apple’s typical helpfulness, the names of these certifcates and profiles on the requesting pages are not the same as the way they appear anywhere else.
I generated profiles over and over. In some cases, I ended up with app specific profile containing Ios certificate, mac certificate, or both, but all of them had some complaint.
I’ll download any APT update today and see if it has more insight.
The Apple Distribution certificate could be for iOS, but not necessarily. Apple has a generic one that covers everything. I tend not to use them because they do cause some confusion like this.
For anyone following along, Greg and I have found a few situations where things can get confusing, and APT has gained some new functionality along the way.
This afternoon, after 4 days of struggle, a combination of APT and Xcode and a lot of expertise from Greg, I can at last get an iOS build done.
