App could not be installed at this time

Hi,

We are distributing an enterprise application via add hoc direct download link in browser.

Our certificate was expired so we created the new certificates and inhouse provisioning and prepared a lated ipa.

But now we are facing issue in updating the application on older app. Its throwing us error "(app name) could not be installed at this time.".

Could you please help us out and provide us with some solution so that we can update our app instead of new installation?

Apple does not provide support in the forums. I would recommend contacting Developer Support directly. After the release of iOS 10.1, it looks like TestFlight fails to install with messages about missing encryption or a simple, unhelpful "App could not be downloaded" message. If you try running an app from the released version of Xcode 8.0 on a device running iOS 10.1, you may also find that Xcode refuses and the Device information shows "Could not locate device files." Unfortunately, the released version of the development tools are not compatible with the release version of iOS, creatimg a confusing and unhelpful mess for developers, which also is likely causing many people to waste a lot of time trying to resolve the issue themselves. I suspect the server and development tools issues will be resolved in a few days. I suspect the overall dependability and complexity mess Apple has steered themselves into will take longer to resolve.

You have to use the Xcode 8.1 GM Seed to work with device that has iOS 10.1 on it. You can submit to the App Store with the Xcode 8.1 GM Seed.

Are you sure the app is targeting an old enough iOS version? For example, if the device has iOS 9.0, but you have the app set to target iOS 9.3, you could get the error message you mentioned.
