Ok...so in my xcode organizer it says about my provising profiles:
a valid signing identity matching this profile could not be found in this keychain???

what does this mean and will it affect my publishing?

thanks for all help

it looks like your missing your certificates.

follow this guide step by step: http://gamesalad.com/wiki/developing_for_iphone

if you still have trouble, remove everything and start over by following these steps (copied from another post):

if you open up the keychain access application, you should see 3 certificates:

Apple Worldwide Developer Relations Certificate Authority
iPhone Developer: NAME
iPhone Distribution: NAME

If you expand both the iPhone keys, you will see two a private key with your name under each. Right click on each of those and hit delete. After that right click on the three certificates above and hit delete.

Reboot your computer

Then open xcode, with your phone plugged in, and click on Window->Organizer
If you click on Developer Profile, you should see nothing in it
Click on Provisioning Profiles, delete EVERYTHING
Click on your iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad under devices, after a few seconds it will show you all installed provisioning profiles on the phone. Delete EVERYTHING

reboot your phone and your machine again just to make sure it's all cleaned out.

Now, go back and login to the iPhone Developer Portal and go to where you create your keychains/appids/provisioning profiles. Start from step 1, and read each section through twice before you do anything.

If you follow the steps it's very easy, but you have to follow them exactly. If you make a mistake it's a nightmare.

The first time I attempted to set it up, it took me 3 weeks, but that was 2 years ago. It's gotten easier.
