iOS executable permissions

Post by jlally » Mon Sep 24, 2012 8:15 pm

Thought I'd break this issue into its own thread...

By following some helpful suggestions on other iOS6 threads, I have been able to get my app to build as a standalone application while running LC 5.5.1, XCode 4.5, and iOS6.

However, my app throws this error when I attempt to copy it on to my physical iPad2:

"Could not change executable permissions on the application."

My app used to deploy without a hitch before I upgraded my iPad to iOS6. I suspect the problem may lie with the fact that iOS 6 has tightened its restrictions with respect to photos. While my app does not access a user's photos, it does use the "mobileExportImageToAlbum" command to allow a user to save jpeg's out from the app.

Anyway, I was wondering if any else had encountered a problem with iOS 6 permissions, and if so, if they knew of any solutions or workarounds.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I had this same issue. I found this post on stack overflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1254 ... pplication

They recommend deleting the local app from your iOS device first and trying again. It worked for me.
