I am a bit stuck on 1b). Xcode automatically communicates my iOS App IDs to the Developer Center. So I am a bit concerned about + Adding my own identifier???? It's already there. name com.app***.com . Xcode did it. Not me! Hands free! Now... Code Signing. Build Settings has the WRONG alphanumeric string after my Name. It did not (somehow) automatically add my new (I don't even know what to call it, there were so many steps of clicking and downloading and double-clicking and uploading). I typed it in manually. It still says there's no Identities. Which step in your PDF addresses this? Also, the extensive steps regarding connecting a device... I just connect my iPhone 5 to my computer, and click Product > Run. The App is installed on my iPhone, and works whether connected to my computer, or in my Apt on WiFi, or out around town on Cellular. So I am a bit concerned about how those steps apply. I've had the App on my iPhone for several days.

Also, I have 16 Apps to submit. I think I want to start over and explore the Wildcard option. Do you have experience with that??

The wildcard option is quite good, but you may face challenges testing on your device as they are all the same ID. They all use the same profiles and app IDs. Do not use the one xcode makes for you, you should always change it. And besides, you have to create it first on the website anyway before it can be used because you need the profiles. Ed
