I have an App in production and want to add new capabilities to the app.
Will adding additional capabilities cause the production App to break?

Hi,
When I try to create an App ID for my app, I get the following message:
"An App ID with Identifier '' is not available. Please enter a different string.
I have not manually created an App ID under my team with this bundle identifier. I have 'Automatic Signing' checked in Xcode but am unable to upload or register an app with the same bundler Identifier through Xcode as well. I am not a member of any other team so this bundle identifier should be unique and should not have been used before.
Would appreciate any help.
Thanks.
I have a .NET MAUI iOS app where its provisioning profiles at first expired a few days ago. So I created new "Apple Development" and "Apple Distribution" certificates using an existing certificate signing request created on 19 October 2023 at 11:46 AM, included the new certificates in the expired provisioning profiles, regenerated and downloaded the provisioning profiles.
In the "bundle signing" section of the "project properties" window of Visual Studio for Mac version 17.6.14 (build 413), I have made the following settings:
Configuration: release
Platform: any CPU
Signing identity is not set to automatic
I have selected the correct provisioning profile, but when deploying the app in release mode, the following error message is thrown so the app cannot be deployed to the device:
ERROR: Failed to install the app on the device. (com.apple.dt.CoreDeviceError error 3002.)

Application could not be uploaded to the device.
What have I done wrong in the above process? What is the most appropriate method to update expired provisioning profiles? Thanks in advance

It requires a provisioning profile, and while I have one, I cannot select it within Signing & Capabilities since it is empty.
On blank projects it works as intended, but whenever the Unity stuff gets imported, it just disappears entirely, making it impossible to export Unity Titles to visionOS.

I'm trying to upload a build to app store connect. It's a build from a Unity project with the polyspatial SDK, and I also need to include a c++ library, which I've added as a dylib signed with the same provisioning profile as the app. The profile is an Apple Distribution profile created from an enterprise account.
It succesfully uploads to Appstore connect, but fails with the following error message:
ITMS-90426: Invalid Swift Support - The SwiftSupport folder is missing. Rebuild your app using the current public (GM) version of Xcode and resubmit it.
This is unhelpful as I'm using a current version of Xcode. I've read that it's a provisioning issue, but I'm using the provisioning profile for apple distribution on an enterprise account, not an ad hoc profile.
I've tried manually adding the SwiftSupport folder from the Xcode toolchain to the ipa/xarchive, resign and upload with Transporter, but that doesn't work.
After spending a day trying to troubleshoot this, I'm at a loss. Any help with this is much appreciated.
Note: I can sideload the app onto an AVP with an ad hoc build and ad hoc provisioning profile (I've added the signed dylib to build phases Link with Libraries and Embed Frameworks). Somehow this doesn't need the SwiftSupport?

Hi,
I'm looking to update an old build for our app but we can't seem to download the certificate for Xcode.
The button seems to be greyed out, not sure what to do to resolve this.

Starting Point
I recently transferred an app from an old to a new developer account. The transfer itself went smoothly with the app using the following capabilities:
CoreData, CloudKit, Push Notifications, In-App Purchases
Keychain is not used
After completing the app transfer, I worked on a new update. For this, I set the new developer account as the development team of the project in Xcode. However, as soon as I try to install the new version locally on my physical test device, I get the following error message:
application-identifier entitlement string ({new_team_id}.{bundle_id}) does not match installed application's application-identifier string ({old_team_id}.{bundle_id}); rejecting upgrade.`
(Note: The test device has the latest production version installed, which was still published by the old developer account. The update can be installed without any problems if no previous version is installed. {new_team_id}, {old_team_id} and {bundle_id} are a substitute for the original content.)
What I've tried so far
I found a Technical Note on this topic and followed the steps suggested. However, the Apple Support wasn't able to provide me with the required Special Provisioning Profile.
That's why I tested a different approach with a dummy application: I have completed an update as described above (new developer account selected as development team). Next, I uploaded it to App Store Connect and published it as a new version. I received the following warning during the upload process, but ignored it since I don't use the keychain:
At first glance, the publication process appears to have gone smoothly. While the update caused the above error during local testing, the update via the App Store went smoothly. As the latest production version has now also been published from the new Apple Developer Account, further updates can now also be tested locally on a physical device without any problems.
Questions
Why is it that the update causes an error when tested locally, but works without problems via the App Store?
Can this approach also be used without concern for an app with a large active user base, which also uses the capabilities described above (in particular CoreData & CloudKit) without causing problems?
Thanks a lot for your support in advance!

Hello there!
I found the page on Docs about Editing provisioning profiles: https://developer.apple.com/help/account/manage-profiles/edit-download-or-delete-profiles/
but there, are showed only cases where one should edit it or when it is expired. It is not showed the case where the profile IS ABOUT to expire. What If it is about to expire and I want to act before expiring? Somewhere on the forum I read that clicking "save" with no changes could be enough, but it is not clear to me if I need to choose something more about it.
I add a screenshot since It seems to me the UI changed a bit recently.
using Enterprise developer program, in-house distribution
I can see no certificate with dec 31 2025 (+ - 1 day) on my dev page certificates list.
but I have, among my certificates, an iOS distribution certificate with exactly nov 23 2026 es expiration date.
why are two choices present with two different expiration dates?
with which criteria should I pick one or the other?
if I have no need to change something, what should I do or do not in this screen at renewal time? (I.E. at beginning of December 2024?)
app Id should be the bundle id, is it so? but in this moment app and id are different, shouldn't they be the same?
