Apple Developer Programs
Anyone can pick up Xcode 5 for free and start developing OS X and iOS software. If your interest is in distributing Mac software on your own, your preparation is done: Build your apps, burn them to CDs, put them on the Net, and God bless you.
However, if you want to distribute your work on the Mac or iOS App Store; assure users with Gatekeeper that your Mac apps are safe; or even test your iOS app on a device, you have to go further. You’ll need to pay for a membership in the Mac or iOS Developer Program. (If you need to, you can join both.)
Apple’s policies and methods for joining developer programs are subject to change, so the best I can do for you is to give an overview. Start by browsing to http://developer.apple.com/ ...
