Nice work, but I can’t see the apps I downloaded. The profiles are there and trusted but I’m not seeing it anywhere on my phone. 1st time using sideloadly.

Guys thanks for the hard work, when can we expect the macos version? I have limited access to a windows machine.

We’re working on it!

What is your iOS version?

G'day. I've spent probably about 6 hours total messing around trying to get my old, decrepit iPad 3rd Gen back to iOS 7.1.2 from 9.3.5. I believe I found a possible way to do it here, but I've had issue after issue. I followed the guide, not enough space on iPad. Alright, I'll reset to factory settings and re-jailbreak. Phoenix says it's done, but I now get an error on Cydia saying that it could not open file /var/lib/dpkg/status. No worries, I found a guide with a command I can run from within Terminal to fix it. Except Terminal is showing a login error with an unknown module. Al-alright, not a problem, I found another guide that says I can use Cydia Impactor to sideload another version of Terminal, which I can use to fix the Cydia app, and I can work my way back up.

Except Cydia Impactor, and every other piece of sideloading software that I've tried now doesn't work thanks to Apple's Developer update. Sideloadly was my last hope, so I gave it a crack. After realising that I need two lots of 2FA, and also realising that my old backup iPhone 4 can't receive the new 2FA codes, I borrowed another iPad from work and got it sorted...

And just now, I got all the way down to signing the certificate, looking up the app ID (for the MobileTerminal IPA that comes with most Cydia Fix folders for my initial Cydia problem), and registered a dummy app ID. It was Signing, and then threw: 

ERROR: Guru Meditation c397fe@340:1ba527 No matching archive type found

Using the search function in this topic, one other person has mentioned this problem, with no response, so I guess it's not super common, but does anyone have any idea what is causing this?

The iPad I'm trying to sideload to is an iPad 3rd Gen, running iOS 9.3.5, and by all intents and purposes, is jailbroken.

Cheers, aye.

The solution is to add

    <key>CFBundleSupportedPlatforms</key>
    <array>
        <string>iPhoneOS</string>
    </array>

To the Info.plist inside the .ipa file then try sideloading again.

I have tried using multiple spotify++ ipas and they all crash when opened, 8.5.78 worked on IOS 14.0.1 but I updated to 14.3 and now it does not work. Sideloadly had no problems installing it either.

Hey! Love what you guys do, keep it up.

I was wondering though, how would I go about syncing with GameCenter on the newer iOS's? I read the FAQs, and scoured the forums for any walkthroughs but have not been able to figure out whether or not it's possible right now. My attempts to change Bundle ID's to overwrite the app store downloaded app have been futile, and have been met with nothing but guru meditation errors (9401) as the ID is already in use.

I'd appreciate any help, whether it be in the form of a response or just being pointed in the right direction. Thank you!

Hello!

This is indeed answered inside the FAQ as to why that happens.

No no I understand why it happens, I’m wondering if there’s a current workaround.  If not, I could try to just restore my device to an earlier version in an attempt to quell that. 
 

It’s to my knowledge that the FAQ mentions overwriting the downloaded app by changing the side loaded app to the same bundle ID, but provides no instruction beyond that. That’s the piece that I’m inquiring on, and I apologize if I didn’t make that clear enough.

There is currently no workaround as of now unfortunately.
