The App was not installed on the iPhone iPad iPod because the signer is not valid

This happens when you are trying to install and App which is not yet approved by Apple and you are trying to install it with the distribution profile. Now I know you are in the same boat as me to test the final distribution release on your iDevice but YOU SIMPLE CANNOT DO THIS because of the restrictions Apple impose through iTunes. The only way I can suggest you is to Jailbreak your iDevice (Which I am not in favor) and then try installing your distribution App on. When you JailBreak your phone one thing you must keep in mind is that you lose you warranty and and future update to the iOS. So be careful. I am not aware if there is any workaround to this. If you know any please leave a comment. Once you Jailbreak your phone of pad then all the restrictions imposed by Apple are gone and you can use other third party sync programs to install your app onto your device. One thing you must do is that once you do any change to your App do create a new distribution profile and build you App with that. Ad-hoc provisioning is pretty near to the actual distribution profiles so do test with them too. The worst thing is that you cannot test your App with the actual distribution profile. Now the above is applicable for the devs who are sort of trying to test their distribution release in the iDevice, but what about when you are trying to install an App and  you get Signer not valid error. This error started to originate I believe in iTunes 10 onwards, This could be a False Positive as well. What I recommend is to remove iTunes from your system and do a clean install. some of the error iTunes throw are bound with incorrect upgrade. I am not saying that upgrade is buggy or anything but I believe that you should give it a go. If you would like to add something to my opinion please do so by commenting. If you've purchased the App from iTunes and are getting this error, there is an official article available from Apple's website which can be found … [Read more...]

How long does it take for an App to be approved and available in the Android and Amazon Market?

Some questions that has possible answers below: android market is not showing my published application My app not appearing in Android Market Android Market not working Same question, different ways to ask :) Fir of all lets answer  "How long does it take for an App to be approved and available in the Android and Amazon Market?" Quick answer from my experience Android Market (roughly Instantly i.e. In between 3-5 minutes) Amazon Droid market (roughly 1 hour - 5 days) What if it doesn't show up instantly even though the status of you application shows up as Published Here are quick tips from me In your manifest file check if all support screen setting is correct i.e. something like this <supports-screens  android:largeScreens="true"   android:normalScreens="true"  android:smallScreens="true"/> Check if the sdk version is properly set e.g. <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="2" android:targetSdkVersion="7"  /> If the above value is too high then that could be the issue  Check if your apk build does not have a /lib folder Do NOT forget to hit Save button at the top for Google Android Market. One Last thing make sure that you put a decent description to the App. I am not sure if that works or not but let me tell ya, It could be timing but when I released my first App to Droid market it had on 1 Line of description but then I wrote some more lines to make it like 300 characters+ And within a minute It was up and running. Now this could be totally a timing thing, but I did not retest the time it took to make my app live by removing the extra description that I wrote to see what happens as I didn't want to take a Chance :) I hope this helps Cheers . … [Read more...]

WARNING: can’t open config file: /usr/local/ssl/openssl.cnf

This error occurs mainly on windows when you are using openssl package, The reason is that openssl failed to locate the openssl.cnf file I will recommend that you do the following (one windows only) Open your command prompt as Administrator (few openssl commands opens in random state), thus when openssl tries to write stuff on your disk it fails. There could be another workaround but i am not aware of that. Now before you run any openssl command type the following.   after you did the above now you are good to go with your openssl stuff. Remember that everytime you open a command prompt you have to run the above command unless you set this as your environment variable.     I hope this helps. If it does then don't forget to leave your comments below.   Cheers.   . … [Read more...]

Android How to Open Pdf file within the browser

So today was the day I found out how :) with lot of google and bing surfing. Its only a workaround not a actual fix according to me but is good enough for till the actual support comes up. wont take too much space to explain but let me tell you one thing. At this moment even with Android 3.2 the default browser do not have in built support for opening PDF files within the browser. Consider you are a student studying full time and have all your lectures delivered to you in PDFs. What now? Oh yeah! download them all and read them one by one. That works but over the time your PDF files accumulate and after some time it become impossible to look to certain PDF for THAT content. This sort of functionality should be default as it is with Safari browser on iOS devices Lets see a work around that I found Follow these steps Download Dolphin Browser from the Market Install it. Now Download PDF reader plugin for Dolphin Install it There you are, good to go Direct your browser to an HTML page with a PDF link. Click on the PDF link now, the file should in the same browser instance. Catch here is that Pdf plugin for Dolphin browser use Google Docs to read and open the PDF files. Smart! I've tested it on my Samsung Galaxy Tab and Samsun Galaxy phone II. This technique should work across all other Android enable phones aswell if you set if up properly. I hope this helps guys!

10 things you must not do on Facebook and Google+

Hi Guys, It seems like ages for me to be on Facebook. I've seen it grow and grow. Its a good thing. Google+ is there too and it will give a tough fight to Facebook with regards to the growth. With 700 million people using it Facebook is the most desired and likeable social networking website on the Planet. Now I have been friends with so many people on Facebook and made some stupid mistakes I've compiled a list of never to do things on Facebook and Google+ for myself. Here it is Do not share your sadness, only share it with your closest of closest mates, Why? because 99% of you Facebook wont know you personally, I only share me being a happy guy and all the positive things that are happening with me. You should never be in admission mode on Facebook, admission can range from why you are sad to why you did THAT thing. Do not share your employment day to day activities like what you did today but talk about promotions, the presentations you did etc. And with regards to employment never update your status when you are supposedly have to be on Doctors appointment :) Do not share any FUN! picture of yourself with your GF/Wife etc on Facebook this will make you a laughing trunk. Do not add any unknown person to your profile. Facebook is about friends not friends with strangers. Do not throw dirt at someone on FB as this can backfire anytime in future. Remember FB records and keeps everything. Even if you delete a picture of your its still alive somewhere on the cloud. Trust me. Do not keep your profile open to everyone. The data such as you phone number/email address etc are really important one that should not be seen by public eye. I never did add my phone number to FB and never will. Remember Facebook is not FREE! They know everything about you which is priceless. They sell this data (if not directly then indirectly with targeted ads stuff) to other if not all of them then some of it. Do not keep your photo albums open to public, once the … [Read more...]
