hello I hope some one can help me.

Because i am very desperate.

I have downloaded Xcode 11 beta but how can i upload an ipa to the app store.

There isn't an application loader in it.

Apple want 12.1 iOS SDK. Air 32 have an installation issue on my mac book.

And now don"t know how to upload with Xcode 11beta.

I hope some one can help me.

tnx in advance!!

I'm not sure what the solution will be in the future, but for now you can still download version 10.3 of Xcode from the App Store.

Is there a new solution for this? I just downloaded and installed xcode 11.3 on my mac. The latest version in the App Store I have developed a new version of an app with Adobe Animate that I would like to distribute, but without the application loader I have to find a new way to do this. Or if I have to download xcode 10.6 where can I find it?

I found the following information on stack overflow and it worked!

In October 2019, Apple announced the Transporter app for macOS, now available in the Mac App Store.

With Transporter you can:

  • Upload your .ipa or .pkg files to App Store Connect.
  • View delivery progress, including validation warnings, errors, and delivery logs, so you can quickly fix any issues.
  • See a history of past deliveries, including date and time.

How about command line tools (in terminal) ? xcrun altool is still alive.

 

$ xcrun altool
Copyright (c) 2009-2019, Apple Inc. Version 4.00.1181

Usage: altool --validate-app -f <file> -t <platform> -u <username> {[-p <password>] | --apiKey <api_key> --apiIssuer <issuer_id>}
       altool --upload-app -f <file> -t <platform> -u <username> {[-p <password>] | --apiKey <api_key> --apiIssuer <issuer_id>}
       altool --notarize-app -f <file> --primary-bundle-id <bundle_id> -u <username> {[-p <password>] | --apiKey <api_key> --apiIssuer <issuer_id>} [--asc-provider <provider_shortname>]
       altool --notarization-info <uuid> -u <username> {[-p <password>] | --apiKey <api_key> --apiIssuer <issuer_id>}
       altool --notarization-history <page> -u <username> {[-p <password>] | --apiKey <api_key> --apiIssuer <issuer_id>} [--asc-provider <provider_shortname>]
       altool --list-apps -u <username> {[-p <password>] | --apiKey <api_key> --apiIssuer <issuer_id>}
       altool --store-password-in-keychain-item <name_for_keychain_item> -u <username> -p <password>

 

So, we can use below command.

 

$ xcrun altool --upload-app -f <file> -t <platform> -u <username> -p <password>

 

for example, 

 

$ xcrun altool --upload-app -f ./path/to/my.ipa -t ios -u myappleid@example.com -p mypassword

It didn't;t work for me. I got:

 

 "Error Domain=ITunesSoftwareServiceErrorDomain Code=-22014 \"We are unable to create an authentication session.\" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=We are unable to create an authentication session., NSLocalizedFailureReason=Unable to validate your application.}"

@srkleiman You need to create an app specific password first: https://appleid.apple.com/

Not the expert here, just doing my best to help. Have you had a chance to look at this video Publish AIR applications to iOS devices |​ for insights?

Thanks,
