recently one developer told me that he has a developer account [not team agent], and he added a device udid and sent a build [.app and .provisionprofile], which the user was able to sync into his device using iTunes. Is it possible ? what i knew till date was that only ad-hoc builds can be synced through iTunes.
secondly, if we have a 299$ account, using that can we make a build for our application which can be installed in innumerable devices [no udid required ? ]
regards
There is no such thing as an .app, it's an .ipa, but yes, if you send the .ipa and .provisioningProfile to your client, or adhoc testers, they can put it on via iTunes if their UID is in there, OR they can double click the profile, and drag it on Xcode if it's connected. but for normal people without Xcode etc, it's best to use
Option 1: Itunes syncing, but if you are using anothers device, this is bad
Option 2: Apple has an App Installation Tool, seperate download for Mac/Windows, which will allow you to do the same as the Xcode part of drag and drop.
And yes, the 299$ account .ipa build can be used on devices which aren't on the profile, but be carefull, there are (like allways with Apple), strong rules.
If they catch you on misusing this, you will lose your license, and second, obtaining an enterprise license isn't the most easy thing, be prepared for scanning/faxing/calling alot towards
About the syncing again, afaik, it's only Ad-Hoc too that can do this, and not normal .ipa's without adhoc build profisioning.
That's my part, not sure bout rest their idea's.
