Really… it was really a tricky tasks making sure that your app is codesign correctly and Apple website accepted your app. As I could remember, I repeat myself more than 7 times doing the same thing, making sure that I did the steps correctly or when changes require you to start from the beginning.

In a simple understanding flow of process, you need to:

1. Create a request for certificate
2. Install the certificate
3. Create App Id
4. Create Provisioning profile
5. Download Provisioning profile
6. Setting XCode to CodeSign using the certificate.
7. Get the binary file, zipped it and upload to Apple website.

So, your target is to get the binary file (.app). That .app file must be signed by XCode using certificate given by Apple. The signing process also requires that you have a valid provisioning profile which you get from Apple, generated from the certificate you’ve requested.

For sometimes, I was using my iPhone without being able to download FREE application from AppStore because of me having to register with the credit card or paypal or visa or any other payment method. I just download iPhone apps from Cydia.

But, during that time, my friend who was able to download all that cool FREE apps from AppStore keep showing me the cool app he has and even blogging about it (read here). Ahh… I want that but I don’t want to put my VISA card there. Thus, I searched and found:

[link] How to get a Free Itunes Account (No Credit Card Needed) [link]

Actually I found 2 or 3 places that give the step on how to get the free itunes account and the one I referred is not the above one but, that link (i think) provide with steps. The basic is the same.

• Find where to find redeem code (get it)
• Redeemed it in iTunes
• iTunes asked to enter account (if already exist) or create new
• You create new (here you find out the added radio button “none” for method of payment
• After this point is just normal step. Put your information and eureka…

You may need to put “your” US city and postcode. Good luck.
