Answer 1

In fact, you need to create a new Distribution profile, specific for Ad Hoc Deployment. This can be found in the classic member center, but it is a new type of certificate.

You can then select which devices can be used to test the app as ou would do with a developer profile.

Alternatively you can use the TestFlight solution provided by Apple with iOS 8 to enable your user to have access to prereleases.
