So after a busy night coming up with lots and lots of questions, I finally managed to get over 100. After 30 minutes of testing on all my devices it was time to upload to the App Store. I’d already set up everything for upload on the iTunes Connect web site including my App description, artwork etc. What I couldn’t find though was some instructions of the actual process to upload my App.
I Googled around but most of what I found was for XCode 3.x. Eventually I found a link to a site telling what to do for XCode 4.0. I was surprised how easy it was actually. XCode 4 seems have now have it all integrated without the need to launch any other applications. Once I generated my Distribution Provisioning Profile for my App, loaded it into XCode all I had to do was Archive my App and submit to the App Store. Easy!
As you can see from my previous post I ran into an error when submitting to the App Store. I got some Java exception. Thought it was strange Apple of using Java for XCode to upload to the App Store. Disappointed about this I tried again. No luck. Tried on my other Mac… No luck. So I Googled the error and found it to be a common problem. The advice that kept coming up was to do a full uninstall of the XCode Developer tools, download the latest XCode, install and try again.
So after downloading the 4.6GB XCode installer over night, uninstalling, reinstalling and testing my App again, I tried to submit to the App Store again. Success! Woop woop!
Just have to wait for those guys at Apple to approve it now.
