  5. Select the App ID that you've enabled for push. Click Continue.
  6. Select your Distribution Certificate and click Continue.
  7. Select the devices you would like to have access to this provisioning profile and click Continue.
  8. Give the profile a descriptive name, such as My App (Ad-hoc) and click Generate.
