    I just spent the morning recreating all my Apple Ids from scratch, after wiping out the old ones. Followed every step they give, and it still claimed it could not find my id. I restarted, and now it says that my provision file is not correct, even though it was only just generated. Also, I still can't install both apps, they just get overwritten. It is ridiculous. I may be stupid, but I can read, and I've followed their instructions to the letter, several times now.

              Using Apple products is still awesome. I've often said their coding environment is the dark ages, and the obtuse licensing stuff for iPhone only makes it worse.

                      Agreed, getting the profiles correct does involve a bit of black magic. And once it works you get kinda reluctant of adding another ad-hoc device because it requires a new provision file.

                      Hur? Two different profiles should not overwrite each other.
