Provision the devices for testers
- Ask your testers to download the UDID Sender app from iTunes for free. Tap the Send button to add your email address.
- Log into your Provisional Portal account, create a provision profile for each UDID identifier that you received, which can then be downloaded to your computer.
- Copy the provision profile file to the Organizer and email it to every tester with the instructions on installing it on the device. Ask them to drill down to Settings>General>Profiles to verify the new expiration date.
Provision the iPhone application
- Log into your Provisional Portal account, create the provision profile under the Ad Hoc tab, and then download it to your computer.
- Copy the provision profile to the Organizer in the Xcode.
Email the files to your testers

However, a tester must remove any existing files before downloading the new ones.
