Here is the text for creating the PEM:

openssl x509 -in developer_identity.cer -inform DER -out developer_identity.pem -outform PEM

and for creating the .p12 file:

openssl pkcs12 -export -inkey mykey.key -in developer_identity.pem -out iphone_dev.p12

  • so much easier to create a .p12 file by going into CS5 Flash and choosing Adobie Air,

    then just go to the Air settings and signature tab, leave everything blank and choose create, put in your details and it will save as a .p12 file. all done.

  • @huttd You realize that the .p12 generated by Flash isn't the same as the one I show in this tutorial, right? The .p12 Flash generates won't let you sign the app for testing or deployment on an iOS device.

  • For anyone who got a "unable to write a random state" with, I ran the cmd prompt as an admin, and it worked fine. In the start menu, just type 'cmd' in the search field, and right click 'cmd' and click 'Run as administrator"

see all
