I've just upgraded my MacBook. I've downloaded my Developer ID Application Certificate to my new machine, and not surprisingly, it's missing a private key.

I can request a new certificate of course, but I have reached the limit of my Developer ID Application Certificates (I have 5). I cannot use any of these with my new machine however, as when I download them, they will all be missing private keys.

I need to revoke one of my old Developer ID Application Certificates, but I can't work out how to do this. Any advice?
Thanks.

Thanks eskimo, I've emailed support and requested that they revoke one of my developer ID certs, or increase my limit above 5.

Seeing as Apple are in no rush to help me fix this issue, I am going to have to create a new Apple ID, pay the $100 to create a new apple developer account, and sign my apps with this new apple ID/dev account.

My question is what could potentially go wrong with creating a new apple ID, then signing out of my apple ID on my mac, then signing in with the new ID? How does this impacts certs etc? Is it better to factory reset my mac then sign into it with my new apple ID?
