Before you write:

Prepare a project in advance and set up the start Picture and application icon. This example prepares an empty project named Test888.

One, create a certificate request file (signing certificate) on the computer

Then do a demo on OS X EI Capitan 10.11.4 os.

First, open 应用程序 , 实用工具 钥匙串访问（KEY CHAIN） as shown in:

The signing certificate on the desktop. png

At this point, you can see a CertificateSigningRequest.certSigningRequest certificate request file (CSR file) on the desktop.

注意： CSR文件尽量每个证书都制作一次，将常用名称区分开来，因为该常用名称是证书中的密钥的名字。

Double-click the CSR file to install签名证书

Two. Preparation of Release Certificate 2.1 preparatory work

First, you need to have the following conditions

1> 苹果的开发者账号2> Mac操作系统3> Xcode(这里使用的是Xcode7.3正式版)

If you don't have an account, you can open http://developer.apple.com/to sign up for Apple's developer account. Developer account specific application process, no longer detailed here.
If you already have a developer account, open http://developer.apple.com/

Double-click Install certificate (if not installed, you can drag the certificate file directly into the list of keychain access)

The certificate has been installed to the keychain. PNG III, Production Provisioning Profiles certificate (PP certificate)

So far, the required certificate on the shelves is not complete, want to submit AppStore, also need PP certificate.

1> PP证书分为 开发用的PP证书 和 发布用的PP证书，这里我们制作的是 发布用的PP证书2> 制作 PP 证书，需要 App ID 和 发布证书(发布证书在上一步已经做好了)

3.1 Apply App ID

Select App IDs

Choose App Ids.png

Then click the plus sign in the top right corner to create a new App ID

Snip20160426_36.png

注意: 这里有两项需要我们自己填：1> 第一项 ‘Name‘，用来描述你的 ‘AppID‘，这个随便填，没有什么限制，最好是项目名称，这样方便自己辨识（不允许包含中文）；2> 第二项 ‘Bundle ID (App ID Suffix)‘，这是你 ‘App ID‘的后缀，这个需要仔细填写。因为这个内容和你的程序直接相关，后面很多地方都要用到，最好是‘com.yourcompany.yourappname‘的格式，说白了，就是用项目中的Bundle ID（这样是最保险的）。

Choose the services you need in your app

APP Services.png

注意：1> wildCard格式的证书没有推送，PassCard等服务的应用，慎重选择。           2> 有一个区别，因为PP证书的开发者证书需要真机调试，所以我们需要绑定真机，如果没有的话，需要将真机的udid复制出来在此添加，在发布PP证书中，是没有这一步的。
