edited November -1 in Working with GS (Mac)
I've been trying for over 10 hours to fix this problem. I can publish ipad or iphone games, but I can't publish mac games.

I have done absolutely everything mentioned in the forums and everything I can think of but I cant get it to work. It always gives me a code signing error.

In my keychain access I have
iphone dev
iphone distribution
wwdr
mac dev application
mac dev installer

I've deleted these and tried over and over again.

Has anyone been able to publish a mac app store game since .98?

The reason I'm asking is because when I publish an iphone game, it says "codesign wants to sign using key "xxx" in your keychain?" Then it lets me allow or deny it.

When I publish a mac app it never asks me this and just says "code signing failed. Make sure your Mac developer certificate and WWDR certificate are installed."

I've seen others with this problem and they either forgot to install wwdr, or one of the mac certificates or something like this, but I have everything and I'm out of ideas.

I have 6 mac games ready to be released. I've been waiting for two months to get a version of gamesalad that fixes some bugs I was having, and now that I have this fixed, I can't get anything published. It's stressing me out.

Thanks for any help or suggestions.

    Thanks for your help tsb.

    Yeah I have a Mac developer account.

    The problem isn't submitting the app on iTunes, it's getting gamesalad to codesign it. I've deleted all my certificates in my keychain and made new ones and it didn't help.

    I had a similar problem before when my certificates expired but I just deleted them all and made new ones and it worked.

    Are you able to get a Mac app signed with .98? I don't think .98 is to blame but I want to rule it out as a culprit.

    Thanks again.

    The box is not grayed out. It let's me select my certificate to publish to the Mac app store it just fails to codesign it and therefore never makes the app file.

    Well, I'm glad I'm not the only one. That was what I was going to try next was to format my system and start over. I'd hate to do that, but if it fixed it, I might. I'm even considering buying another mac just to see if it fixes the problem.

    Did you guys ever try publishing to the mac app store before .98? I wonder if .98 has something to do with the problem.

    If anyone has published to the mac app store successfully using .98 please let us know. If so we can eliminate gamesalad as a possible problem.

    Thanks everyone.

    Before ,98 i published games to Mac app Store without problems. its happened to me 1st time.
    i delete all certificates and installing again and still the same problem

    Code signing failed,Make sure your Mac developer certificate and WWDR certificate are installed,

    It seems that Program didnt recognize a certificate

    What do you think tshirtbooth? Have you been able to publish a mac app store app with .98?
  • ericdg123ericdg123 Member, PRO Posts: 156
    Really need some help on this. I've tried everything I can. If just one person could let me know if they were able to publish to the mac app store with .98, that would let me know its not a problem with gamesalad.
    Thanks.

    I have the same question. is there a person on GS which can publish to mac app store with 98,
  • ericdg123ericdg123 Member, PRO Posts: 156
    I actually got a response from gamesalad and they stated they are not having any problems with it, which leads me to believe it's not related to .98, however if this is true, then why were others able to publish with versions prior to .98, but not able to now.

    I have 6 games ready to go and this is costing me money. I will pay someone for help if they can get this solved for me.

    If I can get a few people to confirm they are able to get gamesalad to codesign with .98 for mac apps, then I will at least know for sure that its not a gamesalad issue.

    Thanks you.
