Hi Skip,
Forgive me if this is not the answer you seek, or an oversimplification, but
there is an easy way to find if the jobs can be exactly evenly distributed,
with nothing left over:
if (tjobs mod tdrivers) = 0 then // it is evenly distrutable.

Maybe I’m misunderstanding but if you just want to divide the jobs you could
have a counter for the current driver and after assigning a job you increase
the counter and wrap it when you exceed the number of drivers.
If you’re looking for a more fancy job division algorithm you should take a
I have working on creating a loop that would divide the number of jobs by
the number of users and then checking to see to see if it is evenly
divisible but that is kind of where I am stuck. Everything I have tried
thus far has proven to be unsuccessful.

It was already mentioned somewhat, but you need some sort of weight metric for
each job. Save the “smallest” job. For each driver, assign the largest and
smallest job remaining. When done, add the weight for each driver and give the
remaining job to the one with the least work.
Thanks,
Dev, I have already sorted the jobs out by proximity so I don't need to
worry about that. Just need the distribution piece down. I agree, you
have a good point an might prove valuable in the future.

Since you would probably have long trips and short trips, I would try and
allocate on an estimated time to complete basis so that all were busy for about
the same time.

Fire two drivers.
:_)
If they complain, fire two more, and it’s still easy . . .
I have 15 "jobs" that need to be assigned to 7 "drivers". How would you
evenly distribute the jobs to the drivers? In this case one of the drivers
would have 3 jobs while the others have two.
Obviously, the number of drivers and number of jobs would fluctuate.
This has been my mind twister for

You can ignore the "this version of Xcode (10.1) was not compatible with the

Make sure your using a development provisioning profile. Create a new one and
try using it. If I remember correctly I've also seen this when not all Icons or
Splash pages are included.

Graham,
When you attach a device to the Mac it should appear in the devices window of
Xcode. A couple of things:
1) Make sure the device is unlocked when attaching.
2) The first time you attach it you should get a message box that will say
something to the effect "Do you trust this Mac?"
