Hi Jalazmi - If you built an OS/X project--i.e. a program intended to run on a Mac--just make a copy of the .app package like this:

1) Open your project and find the Products section in the Groups & Files tree in the project window;
2) Expand Products and Ctrl-click on the app you wish to distribute;
3) Select Reveal in Finder from the floating menu;
4) Ctrl-click on the app in the Finder window and select Compress.
5) Distribute the resulting .zip file.

Of course if your app will require additional installation after unzipping, you'll need to build the necessary installation package or include the steps in a Readme.

If you built an iPhone project, you can only distribute your program on the net (i.e. other than the iTunes Store) by following the instructions for Ad Hoc Distribution in the Dev Program Portal. That type of distribution is only for a limited number of iPhone/iPod Touch devices, usually for beta testing your app.

Hope that helps!
