This app cannot be installed to apple watch
I recently added a new target for Apple Watch, which works fine on the simulator. However, I wasn't able to run it on real Apple watches. First, I don't see it in the list of devices, even after I click "trust" and connect to my Mac over charging cable. Second, I've always used automatic code signing, and everything seems OK here. Third, I also tried distributing it over TestFlight, but that build doesn't appear in the TF. I restarted my phone and relaunched the TF app. So, when I install the app to my iPhone over the cable, the watch app doesn't appear on Apple watches. Then, If I go to watch app and install my app manual (I see it at the bottom with the "install" button), it fails with the error "This app cannot be installed because its integrity could not be verified.". Also, there's an icon on the Apple watch, but it shows the same error when I click it. I unpaired and paired it again, but it didn't help. Also, I tried another pair of phones, and the same thing happened. I use an AppStore account (not enterprise), and the main app works fine. Is there a way how to fix it?

App Store Connect Certificates API
Hi all, I‘m using the certificates API in order to create a development certificate. I want to create a Jenkins job that will give employees an option to create a certificate without giving them admin rights. I’m creating a new certificate without any issues. When I try to create another certificate with a different CSR (for a diff user) I get an error that a certificate already exists. Is it limited to create only one certificate per API key?? Thanks!

What should I do when my Development or App Store certificates expire?
What should I do when my Development or App Store certificates in my developer account under Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles are almost expired or when the certificates are already expired? What should I do so that I can still use the certificates? What happens when the certificates expire and when I already have an application in the App Store?

errSecInternalComponent when trying to codesign an app through SSH
Hi, I'm trying to ssh into another machine, copy an app into that machine and codesign it using my "Dev ID Application" certificate, then copy it back to my original machine. I'm getting the "errSecInternalComponent" error when running codesign. This is the bash script I'm running: ssh ${REMOTE_SERVER} "security -v unlock-keychain -p <REDACTED> /Users/<REDACTED>/Library/keychains/login.keychain-db" ssh ${REMOTE_SERVER} "codesign -vvv --deep --force --verify --verbose --timestamp --options runtime --sign \"Developer ID Application: <REDACTED>\" \"/tmp/$BUILD_ID/ui-app/<APP_NAME>.app\"" ssh ${REMOTE_SERVER} "codesign -dv --verbose=4 /tmp/$BUILD_ID/ui-app/<APP_NAME>.app" I've tried to follow all the available info found online, managed to sign it successfully through the machine's UI, set the ACL of the private key to ALLOW ALL, restarted the keychain service, tried with the system keychain, approved all pop ups through the UI. Still with no luck through the SSH session. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

My new provisioning profiles are broken
I've updated Xcode to 16.1, then I've created a new provisioning profile in developer.apple.com, successfully built and signed my application. It was on monday, 2024-11-04. Two or three days later I was asked to add more devices and I had to create a new profile. I've noticed a new feature to control profile's name (yeah, cool!), had to accept new agreements. Then, have created a new profile, downloaded it, but could not add it with double-click to Xcode or import to Keychain Access - "Failed to install one or more provisioning profiles on the device". And whatever I tried, I couldn't register any new profiles since. Therefore, my app cannot be signed and tested anymore. This is quite weird as nothing has changed on the system throughout the week. Is this a known issue or is there any fix for that?

Does the Team ID on Apple Developer Portal need to match the one on Keychain?
Hello, I was trying to solve the error "Command CodeSign failed with a nonzero exit code" that occurs when I try to archive and publish my app. I realized the Team IDs on the Portal (To right corner next to my name eg "Pete Park - ABC1D2E334") and my Mac Keychain Acces (eg "Pete Park - XYZ9W8V776") do not match. The number on KeyChain Access, is that's a Team ID. (clueless self learner here) If yes, do they need to match? Any suggestion for the CodeSign error? Is "errSecInternalComponent" the error? Sorry if these questions are obvious or stupid. Thanks so much for any advice.

Assistance Required: Invalid CSR File Format While Uploading to APNs
Dear Apple Developer Support Team, I hope this message finds you well. I am currently utilizing the services at https://identity.apple.com for mobile device management and encountered an issue while attempting to upload a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) file to the portal. The system generated an error indicating that the file format was invalid. Below are the steps I followed to generate the CSR: I first created a private key on my server using the following command: openssl genrsa -out private.key 2048 Next, I generated the CSR file with the following command: openssl req -new -key private.key -out request.csr Despite following these steps, I could not successfully upload the CSR file and obtain the APNs certificate. I would greatly appreciate your guidance on creating and uploading a valid CSR file to avoid this error. Please let me know if there are any specific formatting requirements or additional steps I need to follow. Thank you in advance for your assistance and support.

Developer cant access account
Hi there, My developer is trying to access my account. He's got admin access but keeps getting "Join the apple developer Program" message. Even though we have signed up for the developer account. We are trying to setup certificates and Identifiers but gets a message saying the Team ID isnt associated with the an active membership. The apple ID that's shown isnt even the same as our apple ID. How do we get around this as I don't want to share my credentials with the developer. Thanks so much,

Team membership not appearing in Xcode
I have a major problem with team membership and Xcode. I work in a company, where my apple account was added to the development team with app manager role. I can see that on the apple portal, everything seems fine there. I have been also provided with the provisioning profile for the project and signing certificate of the company. However, when I log into Xcode the team does not show up anywhere. I am able to build the app, but cannot distribute to TestFlight (or anywhere else). When I use manual signing to choose the signing certificate it shows the "unknown team" message next to it. When I check my account in xcode it also only shows my personal team and does not allow to pick any other one (doesn't show any other one). When I click the "+" button on my xcode account to add a certificate an error pops up: "You already have active certificate or a pending request". I do have a pending request to enroll into apple developers program, but everyone says you don't need one if you are added to the team, you can just operate as a team member. Finally, when trying to upload to TestFlight, the following error is displayed: "No team for account ***" I have tried deleting and re-adding all the certificates. I have tried logging in and out of Xcode, I have tried deleting and re-adding my account in Xcode. I have tried reloading everything. My account was deleted and re-added to developers team. Nothing worked. I don't know the source of the issue, nor does my employer. I am new to ios development and this is my first project. Please help!

[Automaker App] Signing failed
Hi. I'm an iOS developer, We are creating a Automaker Carplay app for an Automaker provider, but we are facing some troubles: Xcode error: Provisioning profile "iOS Team Provisioning Profile: BundleIdentifier" doesn't match the entitlements file's value for the com.apple.developer.carplay-protocols entitlement. We have the entitlements requested and approved by apple, but we cannot deploy the app in real devices. We don't know if we need to do an extra step. Thank you very much.

Issues while signing macOS app
Hi everyone! We use to have an intel Mac machine where we generate the Developer ID Installer &amp; Application certs for signing and notarization process. This process works sweet. Now, we move from an intel to a m1 Mac machine, where we want to do the same process as before. I had try two different approaches, but ending up with the same result. I export the cert with the private key from my intel to the m1 machine, but when I try to sign, I get: Invalid signature. (Not sure what this error means in this case as everything works on the intel machine. I am guessing the cipher for creating either the private key or the signature differs between the architecture) I try to generate new certs for this m1 machine, but I get the following error: You already have a current Developer ID installer certificate or a pending certificate request. I try with the same account, but also with a different account. In both cases got the same error. I create a ticket for apple, where they said to expect a reply between one and two business days, but no luck yet.
