(I posted this in the "Distribution >> App Submission and Review" forum 2 days ago but it has not received a response. Trying here...)I had to rebuild my iMac a few months ago and I restored from my Time Machine backup.I now need to make a change to an app but what used to compile without error is now failing at the codesign step with:Signing Identity: "-"As far as I can see, all of the account profiles are valid with expiry dates in the future. The only 'odd' thing is that some have a 'Download' button in the 'Action' column of the 'Provisioning Profiles' seciotn of the account details - when I select the "Download All Profiles" button, they turn grey but never seem to download or disappear (even after aiting for several hours!). Looking at the 'developer' web page, all of my certificates and provisioning profiles are all active.Any ideas welcomedThanksSusan

Hi,my apps run on the iOSSimulator without problems and used to run on devices as well, but after updating to latest XCode-Version I am getting the above error message when trying to run an app on my iPhone 7. It says :"codesign wants to access key "access" in your bunch of keys . To allow this enter your password".... but my apple-Developer-ID-Password doesn't work. And until updating to latest XCode-Version I never had any problems with codesign when running an app on iPhone device.Any hints what's going wrong ?XCode Version 9.1 (9B55)iOS Version 11.1.2 (15B202)Latest High Sierra Version, macbook Pro 2015

I have an app at App Store from past two years, now I want to update that app with my recently created new version app for iOS11+ support.My old app has different Xcode project and new app with different. in this case, xcode says to me keep a unique bundle id. So how can I update my old app with a new Xcode project, with the same bundle id...

Hello,I am new to ios development. On the internet I have found tutorials how to create a free (restricted) developer account however in this tutorials there are different descriptions how to register an iOS device with the acount in xcode in order to install apps that I develop.Is there any official tutorial from apple how to do this?Or can some member of Apple staff confirm that this tutorial https://developer.xamarin.com/guides/ios/getting_started/installation/device_provisioning/free-provisioning/ work for Xcode version 9.2, please?Thanks in advancePetra

I get the below error while I build the app for a deviceProvisioning profile "######" doesn't include signing certificate "##########".Provisioning profile "########" doesn't include the currently selected device "#########".What do I need to do to resolve this?

I hope the pending antitrust suits force Apple to allow us to sign and provision our own apps for more than a week. For the price paid I should be able to write my own apps and use them without restriction outside of Apple services such as iCloud and so on. I understand distribution restrictions but please kill that 1 week annoyance, give me some level of freedom over my own apps on my own device. Or I hope it’s forced. Cheers and Thanks in advance.

We seem to be dealing with a weird issue where the clinical health records entitlement keeps on getting added into our final embedded.mobileprovision when we prepare a build for distribution. We seem to get this in the final package. <key>com.apple.developer.healthkit.access</key> <array> <string>health-records</string> </array> But in our projects entitlement file there is no reference to health records. Below is the raw values inside of this file. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>aps-environment</key> <string>development</string> <key>com.apple.developer.healthkit</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.developer.healthkit.access</key> <array/> <key>com.apple.security.application-groups</key> <array> <string>group.xxxxx</string> </array> </dict> </plist> And also in the project this isn't selected in the capabilities section either. Has anyone come across this issue before where Xcode automatically adds clinical records even though you haven't selected the checkbox.

All identifiers updated in summer 2020 has new value for keychain-access-groups - com.apple.token. What is its purpose? What can happen if this value will not be added to entitlements?

I would like to know on a mdm managed supervised device, how to force use Safari if a user has non-safari browser set as default. can enforcing safari for a domain or web clip be done? even shortcuts now, when using safari it opens whatever is set as default browser. Ironically if same simple shortcut of open URL with Chrome is created it opens with Chrome, regardless if default browser is set to firefox for example this default browser setting is great for personal use but cause issues now for corporate use for me anybody else figure this out? Also affects certificates for our managed devices

Trying to validate an app for upload to mac app store. Using Big Sur, and Xcode 12.2 App will not validate. This is for an existing app I'm trying to update. It updated peffectly week just 2 weeks ago with Xocode 11.xx and Catalina. It was rejected a week ago for metadata concerns. I've corrected metadata concerns, and am trying to submit a new binary. I've tried validating the same bundle with a diffreent app id, and everything goes prefectly and is validated. Here is what the non-validation looks like: SUMMARY Team: XXXXXXX Certificate: Apple Distribution (Expires 10/31/21) Profile: Mac Team Store Provisioning Profile: com.XXXX.XXXX Symbols: Included Architectures: Intel 64-bit ENTITLEMENTS com.apple.security.files.user-selected.read-write true com.apple.application-identifier XXXX.com.XXXX.XXXX com.apple.developer.team-identifier XXXXXXXX com.apple.security.app-sandbox true ****** The result = Not Validated * Error message Xcode displayed. Unable to process application at this time due to the following error: Invalid Provisioning Profile. The provisioning profile included in the bundle com.XXXX.XXXX [com.XXXX.XXXX.pkg/Payload/XXXXYYYY.app] is invalid. [Invalid 'com.apple.application-identifier' entitlement value.] For more information, visit the macOS Developer Portal.. * end error message******** Any thoughts or suggestions??? Thanks in advance.

In Xcode I get the following errors when signing : Failed to create provisioning profile. There are no devices registered in your account on the developer website. Plug in and select a device to have Xcode register it. No profiles for 'app.name.com' were found Xcode couldn't find any iOS App Development provisioning profiles matching 'app.name.com I logged in to my dev account in <Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles>, and created my device, and when I try to create a Profile I get the error : No Devices are available , If I click in create new device, and try to register my MacBook Pro, its says : The following devices are either already present and were not modified or contain invalid identifiers. How can I resolved this ?

Hi! I need to transfer an app, which is already available in the App Store, from one developer to another. The new developer account (one to receive the app) has problems building the app for the local testing iPhone device, Xcode giving the error messages: "Failed to register bundle identifier" (The app identifier "com.app.name" cannot be registered to your development team because it is not available. Change your bundle identifier to a unique string to try again.) and "No profiles for 'com.app.name' were found" (Xcode couldn't find any iOS App Development provisioning profiles matching 'com.app.name')" Obviously, Bundle ID isn't unique, as the app already exists on the App Store, but he's only trying to build for the local iPhone to preview the app. I need to be sure the new developer will be able to compile/build the application before we initiate the transfer of the app from one account to another. Also, the new dev has not yet paid for the APPLE DEVELOPER PROGRAM. Should we change the Bundle ID temporarily to be able to test the app? Thank you in advance!

I am trying to compile Xcode project on an online platform Bitrise. I am facing issue with sign in and provisioning .. after trying 4-5 days I am approaching you. Please solve this. ❌ error: No profiles for 'my app bundle id' were found: Xcode couldn't find any iOS App Development provisioning profiles matching 'my app bundle id'. Automatic signing is disabled and unable to generate a profile. To enable automatic signing, pass -allowProvisioningUpdates to xcodebuild. (in target 'myapp-Development' from project 'myapp') How to enable this "allowProvisioningUpdates" also why it is too difficult to do such processes with apple development.. I tried for android and it compiled successfully in a single attempt. please help.

When I try to add HealthKit capabilities to my app, I get the following signing errors: Communication with Apple failed. Your account does not have sufficient permissions to modify containers. Provisioning profile "iOS Team Provisioning Profile: com.domain.app" doesn't support the HealthKit capability. Provisioning profile "iOS Team Provisioning Profile: com.domain.app" doesn't include the com.apple.developer.healthkit and com.apple.developer.healthkit.access entitlements. In my developer account, the HK capability is enabled. And the entitlements needed are automatically generated by Xcode when I add HK capability, if I try to add them, it says they're already there. I have automatically managed signing selected. Clinical health records are not enabled for Health Kit. Common solutions like cleaning, derived data, and restarts don't help. Does anybody know what this is?

When I download my provisioning profile I can't find the com.apple.developer.carplay-audio entitlement in it. Here's what I did: For our app identifier on Apple Developer Portal in "Additional Capabilities" I enabled "CarPlay Audio App (CarPlay framework)". After that I generated a provisioning profile and downloaded it. In the provisional profile info on Apple Developer Portal I can see "CarPlay Audio App (CarPlay framework)" in "Enabled Capabilities". When I import the downloaded profile in Xcode, I can't see the CarPlay entitlement there. After I added the "com.apple.developer.carplay-audio" entitlement to my .entitlements file, I'm getting the "Provisioning profile ... doesn't include the com.apple.developer.carplay-audio entitlement.". When I'm opening the profile in my text editor, I also can't find "carplay-audio" there. Is there a way to solve this problem?

Hi, I'm trying to integrate with Tap to Pay feature under Stripe. For this reason i need to add com.apple.developer.proximity-reader.payment.acceptance entitlement to my Identifier. I can see it under Provisioning Profile -> Enabled Capabilities. But after downloading this profile in Xcode I don't see this entitlement. What could be the reason for this discrapency?
