   This being my first app and all, and reading all the horror stories out there, im trying to get my ducks in a row...

   Is it true that what I need to zip up is a the binary app file, the 57x57 icon, a 512x512 better representation of the icon and any screen shots?

   Is that is or am I missing something?

   Also, I compiled as release with 2.2... I'm thinking this is right to ensure compatibility with 2.2 and above?

   (please don't hurt me?)...

   Its ok - I had deleted them. Did you remember to allow 1st gen ipodtouches? As that device gets older it gets less important to do, but its still nice. Good luck with your app's review process!

   Here are some things to check in no particular order:
   -Itunesconnect has a pdf that explains each screen and field - keep it handy.
   -Make sure you have an App Store Distribution provision from the Dev Portal. You need that to compile your code with.
   -Make sure you don't print out debug messages that you have control over and remember to remove FPS indicator.
   -You have to have all your tax/contracts information ready in itunesconnect.
   -If you are using OpenFeint, you should fill out the 1-touch purchase ASAP.
   -You need an active support site and email address
   -Check the zipped binary size after hitting "compress" for some reason mine was messing up - I think because I moved it and then zipped it. Makes no sense but it happened and took me a bit to figure that out.

   @Code - "Its ok - I had deleted them. Did you remember to allow 1st gen ipodtouches? As that device gets older it gets less important to do, but its still nice. Good luck with your app's review process!"

   I haven't done anything on itunesConnect yet. Its been real flakey today, but I wanted to run this past everyone first. I also use an 8GB First Gen Ipod Touch. I'm assuming what you are referring to is something during the upload process on Itunesconnect?

   @JD - thanks.... Sometimes I feel guilty about asking, but I assume the answers can help a lot more people than just me.

   The App Store Distribution provision is something I had forgotten about. I think I saw it 10 weeks ago, but I haven't seen it in any literature since.

   I searched the internet and Dev Portal about a checklist prior to my submission. All I found were ones mentioning - don't use other people's app names in your description - not many technical ones. Once I started the process and hit snags I had to search again for each issue I ran into. The code signing was difficult.

   I can imagine... almost everytime my art manager comes over to sync up, it doesnt like the is provisioning and we have to go out to a file and delete entries in the XML to make it friendly again.

   Right now, the itunesConnect portal is timing out on me for 2 days. I can get on sporadically, but then I will go to a link that contains one of these PDFs or to see my profile and it will time out.

    remove it? It took me a week to figure out how to turn it on!

    in my AppController.m

    I have:

    [[Director sharedDirector] setDisplayFPS:NO];

    in the - (void) applicationDidFinishLaunching:(UIApplication*)application { method.
