I know this isn't a BT issue- Porblem with ipa files and Xcode 4

Anyone have an issue with the archive files not saving the ipas? I keep getting a weird error message, The operation couldn't be completed. No such file or directory. Has anyone run into this and found a resolution? I have scoured google and apple's dev site. Their support is closed for the weekend and want to get an ad hoc test app to a client.

I wish I could add something here but do zero, nothing, no work with .ipa files. I dont' because I fought and fought a long time ago with the whole distribution nightmare (iTunes, adhoc, enterprise plan, etc, etc, ) and just got fed up with the whole thing. I do remember installing an app somebody sent me (a package prepared by xcode) and it required me to horse around with iTunes for an hour to finally get it installed (without an icon). I was super frustrated and never messed with .ipa's since. However, I have heard from lots of folks that use the Build and Archive function in Xcode without trouble. If you're doing it another way, you could try that method. Good info here too if you are unaware of this, sounds like you understand it all though? http://iphonedevelopment.blogspot.com/2010/05/xcode-32-build-and-archive.html

Thanks, David. I finally gave up on Xcode 4, for now and I am working on my laptop that still has 3.x on it and I just built the archive and created the ipa easy as pie, like always. Looks like a lot of folks were smart not to adopt early. Hopefully the Dev Tech Support will get back to me and I'll pass along any suggestions, in the event anyone else runs into similar issues.
