    It sounds like the file system permissions of the .p12 file are incorrect. Try using the finder or the terminal to make sure that the owner is set to the user you are logged in as and that the owner has read/write permission for the file.

    Xcode 4 has an option in the organizer to export everything needed to transfer your developer credentials to another machine.

    From Apple’s documentation:

    1. In the devices organizer, select your team in the Teams section.
    2. Click Export.
    3. Specify a filename and a password, and click Save.
