To get a list of signing identities, I found the perfect answer [in this objc.io article](http://www.objc.io/issues/17-security/inside-code-signing/):

&lt;!-- language-all: none --&gt;

    security find-identity -v -p codesigning

It gives output like:

Is there away to make a javascript string being passed to NodeJS friendly for MySQL? I&#39;m trying to pass an email address to my NodeJS server and query into MySQL database. When doing regular text such as a username works fine, but the email address doesn&#39;t. Using escape clearly is not the right answer as it is not meant for SQL insertion. I&#39;m assuming I need something on the lines of the PHP function `mysql_real_escape_string()`.

I&#39;m trying to set up an automated way to sign my iOS apps. Before using codesign, is there a way to programmatically determine from the command line what my valid signing identities are?

For example, for the command 

    codesign -v --sign &quot;iPhone Distribution: Joe Developer&quot; /path/to/app

How could I figure out that &quot;iPhone Distribution: Joe Developer&quot; is a valid identity?  How would I figure other valid identities?

I&#39;d prefer a way to do this from within a command line, but from within cocoa would work as well.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to reset and/or clear the iOS in-app purchase sandbox?

I have an app that I&#39;m testing with the sandbox, and I&#39;d like to test new purchases without having to create a new test user every time I purchase something.

If I don&#39;t do this, then I (of course) always get a message that the in-app purchase item has already been purchased when I click on my app&#39;s buy button.

I just recently downloaded the Xcode 4.2 with iOS 5 SDK package and I immediately noticed that I am unable to use my iPhone 3Gs with iOS 4.2.1 for debugging. I am only able to debug and test on my iphone 4 with iOS 5 installed. 

For any of my devices running any iOS less than 5.0 Xcode just says &quot;Finished running &lt;app&gt; for iPhone3GS&quot; and doesn&#39;t run it. I have my deployment target set to 3.0 because I am not using any features in my app above 3.0 and I want to be able to target all versions 3.0 or higher. I have all my provisioning profiles installed and up to date.
 
I have quit and restarted xcode, I have cleaned the build multiple times. I have tried adding armv6 in the archtecture build settings, but nothing will allow me to build and run my app on my old phone with ios 4.2.1. 
 
My question is, is it possible to still make apps with the new SDK work for iOS versions lower than 5? How can I be sure that my app will still run on lower iOS versions if I am unable to install them on my old phone?

**Edit:**
*OK it looks like iOS SDK 5 dropped support for armv6 by default. What you have to do is add armv6 in the Architectures field under Build Settings for both your Target and your Project. Then your app will be able to run on iPhone 3G devices.

I was in an (probably false) assumption that enabling the right margin indicator in xib is equivalent to using `UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleLeftMargin` inside code and so on.

So, I used to think according to this snapshot:
![enter image description here][1]

Later today I had to cross check, and stumbled upon **[this thread][2]**.

And also the apple documentation, entitled with the section with title - &quot;Handling Layout Changes Automatically Using Autoresizing Rules&quot; in this link: https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/WindowsViews/Conceptual/ViewPG_iPhoneOS/CreatingViews/CreatingViews.html

So I now have a renewed concept in my mind as to how setting autoresizing masks programmatically would be equivalent to xib settings:

**Scenario 1**:
Setting only `(UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight)` is equivalent to:

![(UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight)][3]

In XIB?

**Scenario 2**:
Setting `(UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleLeftMargin | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleRightMargin | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleTopMargin | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleBottomMargin)` in code is equivalent to:

![(UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleLeftMargin | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleRightMargin | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleTopMargin | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleBottomMargin)][4]

In XIB?

Are my 2 renewed scenarios correct? Am I right now in my understanding?

I&#39;ve built a small app using storyboards and it ran great. Just before final testing I decided to try it out to see if it runs on iOS 4.3. I clicked on the gray 5.0 in the project settings and selected 4.3.

The app failed to build with the following error message: 

&gt;Storyboards are unavailable on iOS 4.3 and prior

Both the iPhone and iPad storyboards tell me that. 

**The issue that when I switched back to iOS5 target, I still keep getting these errors from both storyboards, and the product won&#39;t build!**
I checked: iOS Deployment target in projects settings is 5.0
Target app deployment target is 5.0
Build settings uses iOS 5.0 SDK

What else do I need to do to restore my project to a buildable state? Is this a brand new bug or am I forgetting something?

Update: I kept getting this error even after doing a clean.
**I changed the debugger in Schemes to &quot;LLDB&quot; and did an additional clean**, the project now builds and compiles

I have a problem with Xcode 4.2 debugging in an iOS 5 simulator/device. The following code crashes, as expected:

    NSArray *arr=[NSArray array];
    [arr objectAtIndex:100];

&lt;!-- (Mis)using blockquote for the eye-catching background --&gt;
&gt; Since this question continues to attract responses that are either
&gt; refuted by the question body or don&#39;t address the actual problem,
&gt; **please read this simple summary** of what you need to know:
&gt; 
&gt;  - **This is _not_ a &quot;Why won&#39;t my default installation of PowerShell run scripts?&quot; question.**
&gt;  - **This is _not_ a &quot;Why won&#39;t my installation of PowerShell run scripts downloaded from the internet?&quot; question.**
&gt;  - **The question is why the `RemoteSigned` execution policy is preventing script execution when it shouldn&#39;t.**
&gt;  - **`RemoteSigned` is the _only_ execution policy I want to use.**  I am aware that other, less-restrictive policies are available.  If
&gt; those policies were acceptable substitutes I would have just used them
&gt; instead and this question wouldn&#39;t exist.
&gt;  - **The execution policy is _already_ set to `RemoteSigned`.**  Changing it from `RemoteSigned` to `RemoteSigned` is not a solution.
&gt;  - **The script file is created and stored locally.**
&gt;  - **The script file is not blocked.**  The script file was never blocked (see previous point).
&gt;  - **The script file cannot be unblocked** because there is nothing to unblock  (see previous point).
&gt;  - **The script file is (attempted to be) executed by an administrator.**
&gt;  - **`Windows PowerShell` is the only application involved.**  Not `Windows PowerShell ISE` nor `Command Prompt` nor any other tools or
&gt; editors are relevant.
&gt;  - **The cause of the problem has _already_ been identified** (see accepted answer).  After nearly 8 years, I think all other obvious
&gt; explanations, whether applicable or not, have been posted, too.  If
&gt; you think otherwise then **please read the question and existing
&gt; answers _in their entirety_ before adding yours.**

I am using Windows PowerShell 2.0 on 64-bit Windows 7 Professional. I have a script on my `Desktop` that causes the following error when I try to run it:

    File C:\Users\UserName\Desktop\Script.ps1 cannot be loaded. The file C:\Users\UserName\Desktop\Script.ps1 is not digitally signed. The script will not execute on the system.  Please see &quot;get-help about_signing&quot; for more details..
    At line:1 char:54
    + C:\Users\UserName\Desktop\TestGetWindowsUpdateLog.ps1 &lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;
        + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (:) [], PSSecurityException
        + FullyQualifiedErrorId : RuntimeException

I am both a domain administrator and a local administrator, and if I run `Get-ExecutionPolicy -List`, I can see that the `Group Policy Object` I created to configure PowerShell is correctly applying the `RemoteSigned` execution policy at the machine level:

            Scope ExecutionPolicy
            ----- ---------------
    MachinePolicy    RemoteSigned
       UserPolicy       Undefined
          Process       Undefined
      CurrentUser       Undefined
     LocalMachine       Undefined

I created the script myself in `Notepad`, and used the [Sysinternals](https://www.sysinternals.com/)&#39; [`streams`](https://docs.microsoft.com/sysinternals/downloads/streams) utility and the file `Properties` dialog to confirm that the script is not being treated as having come from the internet. If I copy the script to a network share on a domain server, then it&#39;s allowed to execute. If I run `Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Scope LocalMachine` then the local script is still not allowed to execute, which makes sense since the execution policy at the `MachinePolicy` scope will take precedence.

As documented by `about_Execution_Policies`([current](https://docs.microsoft.com/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_execution_policies); [at time of question](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/dd347641.aspx)), the `RemoteSigned` policy means:

&gt;  - Scripts can run.
&gt; 
&gt;  - Requires a digital signature from a trusted publisher on scripts and configuration files that are downloaded from the Internet
&gt; (including e-mail and instant messaging programs).
&gt; 
&gt;  - Does not require digital signatures on scripts that you have run and that you have written on the local computer (not downloaded from
&gt; the Internet).
&gt; 
&gt;  - Risks running unsigned scripts from sources other than the Internet and signed, but malicious, scripts.

My script is not signed, but since it is both created and executed locally, it should satisfy the third bullet point above.  Therefore...

 - Why is my script not being allowed to run?
 - Why does PowerShell complain that my script &quot;is not digitally signed&quot; when that requirement should only apply to files from the Internet?
 - Why does PowerShell no longer care about the script not being signed when it&#39;s run from a network share?

Why is my locally-created script not allowed to run under the RemoteSigned execution policy?

“Unable to find manifest signing certificate in the certificate store” - even when add new key

I have a bunch of .ipa files and I&#39;ve used a script to resign them.

So how can check the provisioning profile/signing certificate to conform they are using the correct information?

Ideally, I&#39;d like to be able to take any .ipa file and tell which provisioning profile/signing certificate was used to sign it.

**Backstory:** Our enterprise distribution certificate is expiring and I want to re-sign our stuff. It&#39;s a simple take for all the stuff we&#39;ve made and archived in Xcode, but for 3rd party vendor made distributables I can&#39;t do that. I want to avoid asking for a re-signed .ipa file because a new .ipa *might* include unknown changes and introduce issues and they&#39;d probably charge us too... but I&#39;m more worried about the first issue.

Since both our old and new distribution certificates are still valid (you get a 6month overlap) I need to be able to confirm the new one is used otherwise I&#39;d look really silly when the old one expires and the &quot;resigning&quot; script didn&#39;t actually do the job.

How to tell what profile/signing certificate was used to sign .ipa?

I am tyring to migrate my projects to gradle. One of my projects has multiple product flavors and each one of them has to be signed with a different `signingConfig` in its release version. So this is what I tried so far:

    buildscript {
        ...
    }

    apply plugin: &#39;android&#39;

    android {
        compileSdkVersion 17
        buildToolsVersion &#39;17&#39;

        signingConfigs {
            flavor1 {
                storeFile file(&quot;keystore&quot;)
                storePassword &quot;secret&quot;
                keyAlias &quot;aliasForFlavor1&quot;
                keyPassword &quot;secretFlavor1&quot;
            }

            flavor2 {
                storeFile file(&quot;keystore&quot;)
                storePassword &quot;secret&quot;
                keyAlias &quot;aliasForFlavor2&quot;
                keyPassword &quot;secretFlavor2&quot;
            }
        }

        productFlavors {
            flavor1 {
                signingConfig signingConfigs.flavor1
            }

            flavor1 {
                signingConfig signingConfigs.flavor2
            }
        }
    }

    dependencies {
        ...
    }

When I run `gradle build` I get a `groovy.lang.MissingFieldException` and the following error message:

    No such field: signingConfigs for class: com.android.build.gradle.internal.dsl.GroupableProductFlavorFactory

So I assume the `productFlavors`.* part of the Gradle script is not the right place to put code signing configurations.

We&#39;re building an app for another company. They hold the signing key and would rather not share it with us.

Building iOS applications using xcodebuild without codesign

I have the following problem which I could not find a solution for anywhere. Basically, we have a company developer account (not enterprise) and so in order to submit our app, I requested from our team lead to send me the distribution certificate and create and send me a distribution provisioning profile. 

With the developer profile, everything works good, but when I installed the cert and the provisioning profile, I did not see the distribution profile on Xcode, and nor do I have a private key under the dist cert in the keychain.

Does anyone know how to solve this? I read in diff places that I will need to revoke the certificate and create a new one, but I can&#39;t really do that since we have a bunch of apps in the company and I can&#39;t revoke it for everyone.

missing private key in the distribution certificate on keychain

I was having a problem with codesigning my apps, so I deleted all the keys from the keychain. Then I went to *Certificate Assistant =&gt; Request a certificate from a Certificate Authority* (to create CSR for a new certificate).

So enter my email address and here&#39;s what I get:
&gt; The specified item could not be found in the keychain.

What am I doing wrong?

P.S. When I&#39;m trying to *Create a Certificate Authority*, I get the same error.

I manually added the .mobileprovision file to my xcode project but i&#39;m thinking this may also be a source of my error.

Anyone, can you please help?

Whenever I build my Xcode project, after compiling all my code, it takes *forever* to finish &quot;signing product.&quot; (I believe it&#39;s because the project includes about 200 MB of resources that need signing.) I would like to skip the code signing during development, so the build can finish faster. How can I do this?
