IPhone certificate and security ... etc. on a new Mac machine?
I had an older mac mini that I used to enroll certificates etc. I never got to the scene to actually use them as I only tested on the iPhone simulator.
Today I have a new mac mini and I am trying to deploy it to a device. Are there any bugs I have lost with this new mac mini?
When I build and upgrade to device 3.0 I get an error. "Code point error: ID 'iPhone Developer:' does not match any valid certificate / private key pair in the default key."
And indeed, when I go to a key app with an access chain, I see that my keys do not have a certificate associated with it (even I thought I had the "iPhone Developer:" certificate.
Any understanding of this completely for a complex process would help me. Thank!

There is a new feature in X-Code 3.2 that will make this easier.
- On your old computer, in X-code, go to the Organizer window.
- Click "Developer Profile" in the left panel. Then click "Export Developer Profile" in the right pane.
- Save the file and transfer it to your new computer.

- Click "Developer Profile" in the left pane, then click "Import Developer Profile" in the right pane.
- Select the file and everything should work well. At least it worked for me.
I think this transfers the private key, sets up the public key and the required certificates. I don't know if this helps with the distribution credentials.
