Devices

Adding Devices

button on the Devices home page. This will take you to the Add Devices page.
-
On the Add Devices page, enter the following information:
- Device Name - This is just the display name that will be used to identify the particular device.
- Device ID - This is the unique id of your iOS device. There are instructions for locating the id through Xcode on a Mac, but another method is to use the iDevice Info app available in the App Store to find your Device ID. The app will even email the id to you so you can easily copy and paste it into the field.
-
Click the
button to add the new device. You should now see the new device listed on the Devices home page along with any previously added devices.
App IDs
Creating App IDs
Manually creating App IDs enables you to set up the App ID with an explicit bundle identifier, which is necessary for using Game Center, In App Purchases, as well as for communicating with the Apple Push notification service.-
To create a new App ID, click the
button on the App IDs home page. This will take you to the Create App ID. If you have created any App IDs previously, they will be displayed on this page.
-
Enter the following information:
- Description - This is the display name that will be used to identify the App ID on the iOS Provisioning Portal.
- Bundle Seed ID - This is a unique identifier that is created automatically. You can have a new id generated by choosing Generate New.
- Bundle Identifier - This is a unique identifier for the new App ID. This can be a wildcard (&42;), but must be set to something explicit if you wish to take advantage of Game Center, In App Purchases, or the Apple Push Notification service. The recommended format for an explicit bundle identifier is a reverse-domain name style string. (Example:
com.EpicGames.UDNiOSGame
)
-
Click the
button to create the new App ID. You should now see the new App ID listed in the App IDs home page.
