Below is an high level overview on what we've now done so far
please bear in mind I'm not a MAC person myself
- Created a new distribution certificate on the MAC
- Created new provisioning profile with the iOS distribution type and assigned to one of our intended to be deployed into iPad devices
- Generated and download on the MAC and executed the downloaded prov file (double-clicked)
- On VS on Windows 10, we are connecting to the MAC and the MAC itself hooked up to the afore-mentioned iPad device
- VS Bundle signing section is configured the following way
- Within the Signing Identity: we've got the iphone distribution option set to the name of our iOS certificate
- On the Provisioning Profile option: the one available and active on the Apple Dev portal
- As we build on Windows and deploy then to iOS devices, we are now blocked in the process that allows you to successfuly deploy your Xamarin.Forms to an iOS device on Windows and get the provisioning to match to the one available on the MAC and on the Apple Dev portal
- Below is error message thrown
Project bundle identifier 'com.yourcompany.PropertyDC' does not match specified provisioning profile 'Provisioning Profile PDC' PropertyDC.iOS
