I have a few questions to ask. Currently, I'm self-learning iphone programming, and later maybe for mac. I just need to make sure my apps works accordingly.
So do I need a license to test on the iphone simulator? I don't need to test on a real device. I don't intend to put anything up on apps store in the near future.
If no, how do I bypass the code signing error (certs and all)?
If yes... nvm...
For mac, do I need a license to test and run apps on my personal Mac?
Thanks in advance for your help. :D

Your first In-App Purchase(s) must be submitted with a new app version. Select them from the In-App Purchases section of the Version Details page and then click Ready to Upload Binary.
Viewing & Testing. When you're in the simulator, click open Safari, click on the URL bar, and you can paste the testing URL using ^⌘V (Edit > Paste Text), then hit enter.
You'll need to go to Settings > Advanced and check the Show Debug Menu option. Then you'll see the option to open the web inspector for the Simulator right from that menu. With the Web Inspector open, you can debug inside the Simulator just like you could right in a desktop browser with DevTools.
Launching the Simulator, though, always requires opening Xcode and going to Developer Tools. Because the Simulator. app is embedded within the Xcode app bundle, apps like LaunchBar won't find it to index it. LaunchBar, which is my launcher of choice, also ignores aliases, so dragging Simulator.
You can test on the simulator for free, if you register as an Apple developer and download the iPhone SDK. To do so, go here: http://developer.apple.com/programs/register/
You will not be able to test on a real device, but from your question, it looks like this is not an issue. Also, by registering as an Apple developer, you can download and use Xcode to write Mac applications as well.
If you do decide that you need to run the app on an iOS device (even your own) or publish to the App Store, you will have to sign up for the iOS Developer Program, which is $99/year.

It's confusing but the Xcode and the iPhone SDK are completely free. If you want to put your application on your phone or if you want to publish to the app store you will need to pay $100 for a license as compared to Android which is free.
