Any developers using MacinCloud?
Just seeing what opinions you might have on it. Thanks.

Not using it myself but a developer did mention that they used it on the forum earlier and someone else mentioned it in an email. (I can’t recall their forum name off hand.)

I use it to submit apps to appstore, for a different sdk.
Just tried it using Corona directly on macincloud to build an app for testing on my ipad. Can’t work out how to get it to my ipad via my pc. The app produced has no file extension so isn’t recognised by iphone configuration utility. So I slap an extension on (.ipa) but still not recognised.
Can’t imagine that I can connect my ipad to itunes on macincloud. Stuck.
So, anyone know whether Corona app files on a mac are transferable to a pc? [import]uid: 120570 topic_id: 19959 reply_id: 87460[/import]
This site supposedly has instructions for Windows machines;

That works. Essentially use dropbox to send the complete app folder to the pc. Extract from zip file and then drag the full app folder to IPCU. Thanks. [import]uid: 120570 topic_id: 19959 reply_id: 87467[/import]
No worries, glad to hear you were able to get it working - haven’t had to do it on PC myself [import]uid: 52491 topic_id: 19959 reply_id: 87494[/import]
Looks pretty neat.
Amazing what technology is bringing us these days [import]uid: 84637 topic_id: 19959 reply_id: 87511[/import]
My only regret about the service (granted I only used it for a few days) is I like to use the bleeding edge builds and of course they restrict what you can install so you couldn’t use daily builds. But their staff was incredibly responsive, after hours, weeknights they always got back to me and helped me out. Paired with Dropbox like the other poster mentioned, it’s a great combo!
Pretty good stuff if you’re using the standard Corona SDK!!! [import]uid: 11636 topic_id: 19959 reply_id: 87512[/import]
How do I get the terminal working in macincloud? Seems like I can’t run the Terminal file, only open it in an text editor.
I’m a windows user. I need the macincloud for iOS builds. [import]uid: 101722 topic_id: 19959 reply_id: 98498[/import]
Run terminal first, it then fires off the simulator. [import]uid: 120570 topic_id: 19959 reply_id: 98500[/import]
So in summary, the file produced by Corona is a .zip file containing
- a .mobileprovisioning file
- a folder containing the app
I can use these to put the app on a local device using iTunes (Windows) or IPCU (Windows).
Is this right? [import]uid: 84768 topic_id: 19959 reply_id: 98518[/import]
Zip file seems to contain the provisioning profile, but I still (need?) to use provisioning profile separately with IPCU and iTunes [import]uid: 120570 topic_id: 19959 reply_id: 98520[/import]
Yet another method is proposed here
(see comment by Rob Miracle: he creates an .ipa file)
