Publishing my APP from others person Mac

Hi, I'm finishing my app, and I would like to release it for iPhone. But I don't have an a Mac...so I can't really publish it from my PC.

I'm thinking on asking someone to publish my app from their Mac...and then send all the needed the information to me / gamesalad.

Is that possible, or this can make me some problems (like, the other person claiming that the app was made by her)?

    Yep, that problem could easily happen.

    However, if this is somebody you trust/regularly see (like a close friend, or best, a family member), then I would say go ahead it's ok.

    If it's some site that does these things, then don't do it.

    Try www.macincloud.com 's free trial.

    Note that you will also need an Apple Developer Publishing license ($99/year) to publish to iPhone and iPad (Mac punlishing is a separate membership)

    Hope this helps

    Sorry for another dumb question.
    Do I need a Apple Developer Publishing license even if I dont want my app in appstore? I'm planning in selling the app in my own site.

    NO...but it will warn the downloader that you are not an authorized mac app seller if they buy it from your website, and you're not an Apple developer.

    Just put a disclaimer saying that you're legit, although your not Apple-authorized, but you're working with them to get authorized soon; then buy the membership if the App makes over $99.

    Hope this helps
