So, to put an app on an iPad, you need to create a sequence of different files, designed to identify you. On the iPhone, this was next to impossible to get right. On the iPad, the newer version of the website has a wizard to use. I was getting an error, that my certificate does not match the file. I had three different profiles installed, so it seemed like a fair cop. I deleted them all, and created a new one. Then the app would not build at all. After some googling, I found that even though I had set it correctly in the IDE, I needed to dig into the project file and hand edit a file to get my app to build. Once I did that, I can be sure it's using the right certificate, b/c there is only one. Only, it still refuses to allow me to put the app on my iPad. "The entitlements specified in your application’s Code Signing Entitlements file do not match those specified in your provisioning profile. (0xE8008016)." So now I spend another day googling an obscure error message, trying all the things people have tried, only the whole process is so convoluted, that lots of people think they found the answer, but there's multiple answers that need to be found. I worked it out. There's three configurations: Debug, Release, Distribution. I guess 'Distribution' is only for versions you send to the app store, not for Ad Hoc distribution. Changed the profile to 'Release' and it all works.

They can, if they want. But, that doesn't make us any money, so we're offering an alternative.

Won't that make the iPad too heavy to carry around?

Well, my problem now is even more interesting. I have two versions of my program. If I install v1, then install v2, v2 overwrites v1 but does not run. If I install v2 first, the reverse happens. Both work fine in the emulator.
