AW: Another (macOS) Code signing guidance question...

[panagiotis merakos]

Hello all,

Just downloading the certificate from your account in the apple dev
website, and using it in a different machine from the one it was created
will not work (you get identity not found), because you need the private
key as well.

This is why you have to export the certificate from the old machine,
because exporting the certificate exports the private key that is
associated with it as well.

Kind regards,
Panos
