PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOUR <FILE> IS A VALID ZIP OR IPA FILE

I am now stuck on step 9. DELIVER YOUR APP.... One of the final steps, uploading the binary. I downloaded the ZIP file from ibuild onto my desktop. If I leave it on my desktop, it stays as a zip file. If I drag it into one of my folders, it changes the extension to .app
.
At any rate, going through the motions to upload it to itunes connect, the .app file does not even highlight for uploading in the application loader. The zip file on my desktop does, but after I click "submit" (or whatever it is) I get an error telling me to make sure it is a valid zip or ipa file. Any help please?????? I tried opening the zip file on my computer too, and it said "operation not permitted" I am using a macbook pro 17 (if that helps) Thanks

Step 9. Upload your app on iTunes Connect – select “Deliver Your App”:

Step 10. Once done, you can upload your app on iTunes Connect. Open App ZIP archive:

Step 11. Before uploading your binary code you must register for uploading your application on iTunes Connect.
Select app from the list and click ‘Next‘:

Approve the uploading and you’re done!

do you use the latest version of app loader?
why do you drag zip file to some other folders?
you don't need to open zip file, seems misleading

I've seen similar issues when using Safari browser. Use Mozilla Firefox to download your zip file.

Yes, I have the latest version of xcode, which includes app loader. I dragged it into my folder that contains all of files for that particular app. Just to keep it all together.... But when that didn't work, I just downloaded it to my desktop and tried uploading from there. That's when I got the error "make sure that your <file> is a valid zip or ipa file."

go through all steps again (just in case) and open the zip file on step 9 but don't change it.
next upload it.
clear?
please post the screenshot here of all step 8 and all steps after that.
