If I was provided with an xcarchive, what steps would I follow to deploy it to the App Store?
The xcarchive is already signed with the proper credentials for the App Store.

1This would be an excellent question for the person who gave you the archive. – Caleb Jul 24 '13 at 15:51

In finder press SHFT+CMD+G and type this
~/Library/Developer/Xcode/Archives
Place your .xcarchive inside Archives folder
Restart Xcode, goto Xcode->Organizor. Next steps as usual..Validate § Upload.
“ Just wondering why someone copied and sent xcarchive instead of uploading directly to the AppSore by 2-3 clicks !!"

Thanks for the help, Guru. Unfortunately, when I paste the archive into that folder and restart Xcode, I don't see the archive in organizer. I've also tried placing it in an appropriately named folder (with the date as the folder name). Do you have any idea why the archive wouldn't be appearing in Organizer? – pfue Jul 24 '13 at 20:10

not sure why not working...Instead you can generate ipa ? use application loader? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5265292/xcode-4-create-ipa-file-instead-of-xcarchive – Guru Jul 25 '13 at 00:33

I ended up generating an ipa and using application loader. Thanks for the help! – pfue Jul 30 '13 at 19:55
