Signing Applications
Applications you distribute to users must be signed with your distribution certificate.
For instructions about obtaining and using a certificate, see the iPhone Developer
Center at http://developer.apple.com/iphone.
Creating the Distribution Provisioning Profile
Distribution provisioning profiles let you create applications that your users can use on
their device. You create an enterprise distribution provisioning profile for a specific
application, or multiple applications, by specifying the AppID that is authorized by the
profile. If a user has an application, but doesn’t have a profile that authorizes its use, the
user isn’t able to use the application.
The designated Team Agent for your enterprise can create distribution provisioning
profiles at the Enterprise Program Portal at http://developer.apple.com/iphone.
See the website for instructions.
Once you create the enterprise distribution provisioning profile, download the
.mobileprovision file, and then securely distribute it and your application.

located in the following folders defined in this section. If the folders don’t exist, create
