Question

I have an app that I built using iOS 5.1 compatibility.

I haven’t been able to follow paths like building it using archiving – I have been using a remote mac and some issues keep restricting me from doing that.

So I prepared an .ipa file by doing this:
– Payload folder
– copy myapp.app package to Payload
– Zipped Payload

Now I got this Payload onto my itunes on another pc (because the mac is remote so no way to get onto ipod touch from there)

My ipod touch shows iOS version 4.2.1 which it says latest. No further upgrade available.
The model is mb528zp. The free space on ipod is 700 MB, which is more than what’s needed.

I can see myapp under itunes library app section.

When I try syncing myapp from under the device->apps, it does seem to sync up – but at the end it is not synced.

What do I do?

It sounds like your deployment target is set to the wrong iOS version. Try setting your project iOS Deployment Target to 4.2 or below and it should work (click the project in the Project Navigator, then click the name of your project, not the target, and you should see the Info tab selected with the option there)
