While upgrading an existing app, I'm getting the notorious:

"The binary you uploaded was invalid. The signature was invalid, or it was not signed with an Apple submission certificate."

I believe it is due to the fact that I am using the wrong App ID. I forgot the one I used in the original app. Is there a way to determine the original App ID? I now using xcode 4 the original app was done back in iOS 3.0 days.

If the app is available on from the store or if you still have the bundle you submitted open it up and find the binary. On the binary run

strings - appBinary | grep -A 1 application-identifier

this will show you the appID that was used.

Incidentally this didn't completely solve my problem. However closely examining the strings on the binary I was trying to submit revealed the app was being signed by my developer cert and not my distribution cert (despite the xcode settings) there fore I changed all builds to use my distribution cert's and it then worked.
