I was having the same problems, I tried moving my cert from “System” to “login” in KeyChain Access and it is working now. (Recently upgraded my OS to Snow Leopard, my ipod touch to 3.0 and my cert is about to expire.)

It’s probably only me, but I encountered this same problem when I copied my project from iMac to Macbook Pro. I found out I didn’t have my private key installed on the Macbook. So I exported my private key, copied and installed it to the Macbook, and voila it works!

I’ve documented the information here: http://www.creatistblog.com/2009/09/iphone-developer-provisioning.html

After trying everything I was still getting the “A VALID signing identity matching this profile could not be found in your keychain” error. Then (out of desperation) I deleted the provision file in Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles and replaced it manually with the one that I downloaded. This produced a much more descriptive error about the AppID which I was able to resolve. Then everything worked.

Also: For Ad Hoc deployments, it seems that you need to create an Entitlements.plist file and and uncheck the “get-task-allow” property.

Should be noted I have the VALID problem mentioned by digas, but I looked at his solution and my certificate was already in login…

I forgot to check “notify me of followup comments via e-mail” so I’m doing that with this post…

Oh Yes – yellow warning triangle in the organizer for my profile. That’s what first gave me to know something was wrong…

When you Open Xcode > Organizer , did you already imported the Profile to you iphone ?
If yes do you get any Yellow Warning on the Orgnaizer ?

BTW – specifically how does one “re-do the link” between certificate and provisioning profile? That’s worth a try before anything else I’d guess…

My thanks to you both… I will ping you later personally…

John,

you might have to redo the link between certificate and provisioning profile. All I know is in this article. I can only offer that we recheck the whole procedure togehter via Skype screen sharing. On skype I’m TheDrops.

Well, I just upgraded to 3.0, and I’m broken. I’ve tried everything but I just get this error over and over… New profile, same error…

Checked all the settings in keychain etc…

Cannot test my app on hardware now… I had an expired certificate, and went and got a new one… yes it has public and private keys…

Is there anything else that can be done?

I also experienced this problem, however my solution was very simple. All my keys and certs are on the login keychain. However, I started to setup file vault, but decided not to. This created a new “DEFAULT” keychain for file vault. However since I did not encrypt my home folder, no keychain was created. I just had to set my default keychain back to login and everything works as before.

2 bugs as I see it. File vault should not change the default keychain until complete and XCode should allow you to look at other keychains other than default.

Hope this helps!

I will be posting more at my blog:

Never mind, I had to manually copy the .mobileprovision file into ~/Library/MobildeDevice/Provisioning Profiles and now it works even if I leave the Identifier unchanged. Thanks a ton for the help!

Thanks for the hint, trying that with a new appid and provisioning profile then. But what puzzles me is that I see the Provisioning Profile in Organizer at the device, but in Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles I don’t see a file at all.

The bundle identifier in the info.plist needs to match the part after the alphanumeric key you set as app id. I usually use only * as App ID on the website and my bundle identifiers look like this: com.drobnik.geocorder

Sorry to bother again. I really cant find the “yourcompany” string for the Identifier. I have been looking around my developers account and tried Google, but had no success. So building is failing telling me “a valid provisioning file matching the applications Identifier ‘com.blabla.appname’ could not be found’ where blabla is the part I cant figure out through my dev account. Do you probably have any hints for that?
