What is Ad Hoc Distribution?

Ad Hoc Distribution allows you to try an application before it’s available in the iTunes App Store. This is how we distribute iPhone applications to beta customers.

These instructions assume you have a .zip file.

Developers, if you have any customers running Windows Vista, you’re better off distributing with an .ipa file, so that iTunes handles the unzipping. To create a .ipa, move your AppName.app directory into a new directory called Payload, then zip the Payload folder and change the file extension to .ipa.

What You’ll Need

Before beginning the installation process you’ll need:

• The .zip file for the application (usually AppName.app.AdHoc.zip)
• The .mobileprovision file for the application (usually Ad_Hoc_Distribution_Profile.mobileprovision)
• Your Device: the iPhone or iPod Touch whose UDID you emailed us previously
• The computer you normally sync with your Device

We usually send the .zip and .mobileprovision files to you via email.

Installing the Application – Windows XP

• If you have the .zip and .mobileprovision files in an email, save them to a convenient location, such as your Desktop.
• Drag-and-drop the .mobileprovision file onto Library → Applications in iTunes. On the Mac, you can just drag it to the iTunes icon in your dock.

• Extract the .zip file. To do this, right-click the .zip file and select Extract All… . Step through the wizard and accept the defaults by clicking Next.
  WINDOWS VISTA USERS: The built-in “Extract All…” command corrupts the application so that it cannot be installed. You should try using a different zip program like WinZip or WinRar to extract the Zip file. Better yet, ask the application developer to send you the application as a .ipa file instead of a .zip file, then you don’t have to unzip it.

• Find the .app folder (usually AppName.app).

• Drag-and-drop the whole .app folder onto Library → Applications in iTunes. On the Mac, you can just drag it onto the iTunes icon in the dock.

• Verify that the application shows up in Library → Applications. Note that it will not have its normal icon.

• In iTunes, select your Device under Devices, choose the Application tab, and make sure that the new application is checked.

• Sync your Device and try out the new app!

Building a website for your new business used to be a luxury. These days it’s a necessity, and even so-called “brick and mortar” establishments have abandoned the notion that their business can thrive without an online component. As a result, most have become “click and mortar” operations, allowing their customers to choose between the virtual or physical world.
