In the Terminal:
1) change directory to place where you want to save your keystore
@ Android_Keystore $ which keytool
/usr/bin/keytool
2) change command to something like this, execute it
keytool -genkey -v -keystore MyCompanyName-release-key.keystore -alias MyApp_name -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000
3) you will be asked for two sets of passwords, if you have multiple developer groups working on different apps then provide different. If you are single developer for single app then you can keep them same.
