I've been working on an iPhone project with iOS 4.0. I just downloaded Xcode 3.2.4 with iOS SDK 4.1 so that I can work with the updated iOS. Upon opening the project in the udpated Xcode, I found that the target read 'Base SDK Missing'. I fixed that by following the instructions here.
Now when I try building targeting any version of iOS, I receive this error (with the corresponding version referenced in the error text):
CodeSign Error: code signing is required for product type 'Application' in SDK 'Device - iOS 4.1'
I have the Team Provisioning Profile created by Xcode installed, that Provisioning Profile has my certificate, and the Code Signing Entity selected is 'iPhone Developer: Aaron Milam'.
Any ideas as to what I could be missing here?

Open the project using Xcode. Select the root project directory, and go to the Signing and Capabilities tab. Here, you can either check Automatically manage signing or do the signing manually. If you check the Automatically manage signing checkbox, then you will just need to select the Team from the drop-down list.
Generate a Code Signing Certificate using XcodeAt the top of the window select Accounts . Click on the + on the lower left corner and select Add Apple ID... A dialog will appear. Add your Apple ID and your password, then select Sign in .
The automatic setting should automatically use the correct certificate to sign your app with based on the provisioning profile set in the bottom option in the Code Signing section. You can explicitly set both the Code Signing Identity as well as the Provisioning Profile, or set the Code Signing Identity to Automatic.
You use the codesign command to interrogate an app or other signed entity about its signature. To verify the signature on a signed binary, use the -v option with no other options: codesign -v <code-path>
It happens when Xcode doesn't recognize your certificate.
It's just a pain in the ass to solve it, there are a lot of possibilities to help you.
But the first thing you should try is removing in the "Window" tab => Organizer, the provisioning that is in your device. Then re-add them (download them again on the apple website). And try to compile again.
By the way, did you check in the Project Info Window the "code signing identity" ?
Good Luck.
