I have a bizzare issue with my Apple TV that is shown as "iPod" in Apple developer portal. It's correctly visible in Xcode as Apple TV, but when I add it to developer portal it says "iPod". The problem is since it's there as an iPod I can't use it to my provisioning profile to build on the device Anyone has any idea how this can be solved? [Edited by Moderator]

I've added my Vendor ID to the appropriate entitlement files but my binary fails validation when trying to upload it to the store for distribution. The embeded.mobileprovision file in the generated archive shows an asterisk instead of my approved Vendor ID. How can I make sure the embedded provisioning file has my Vendor ID?

Hi everyone! We use to have an intel Mac machine where we generate the Developer ID Installer & 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.

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.

We have a Mac that is used to sign and notarize our installers. This Mac will be going away soon, so I have to setup a new Mac to do that work. I've been able to install all the tools, but I can't get them to work. The certificates are in the keychain, but don't show up in the "My Certificates", probably because the related keys don't exist in the "Keys" list. I'm using the same Apple Dev ID that I used on the other machine. HOW do I get things setup on the new machine to work? There must be some way to get key/certificate pairs to work. (I am very definitely NOT a Mac expert, barely even a novice.)

Hello there, Apologies for this most basic question!. We have an iOS application and no developers left to work on it. That is fine as we are not planning on making any changes to the app for a long time, however, we have just received an email stating that our "iOS Distribution Certificate" is due to expire soon. We have looked through the documentation but it is very technical. Firstly, what I am trying to understand is: The only options we have under "Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles" on the Apple Developer web site are "Download" and "Revoke". Do we have to "Revoke" the certificate before creating a new one? If so, won't this stop the released app from working? Is it possible to just re-create the certificates from the Apple Developer web site without re-releasing the iOS app? Or do you have to sign the app with the new certificates in XCode and re-release it? Many thanks!

I received an email saying this: Your iOS Distribution Certificate will no longer be valid in 30 days. To generate a new certificate, sign in and visit Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles. If I don't correct that situation, what will be the consequences for my apps' users? The Apple documentation is vague on this, because they seem to automatically assume that I plan to comply and renew the cert. However I don't own a Mac at present, nor an iOS device. My apps are monetarily free, so no financial incentive exists to buy either. If I don't renew the distribution cert again (maybe by borrowing a Mac), will my apps' existing users be adversely affected? FWIW, my apps don't support iCloud in any way. I would also note that the "Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles" section isn't visible anywhere; I'm using Firefox.

Hi all, I'm using xcode 13.2.1. I go to Product>Archive. The app builds and creates an archive, but there's no data for "version, identifier, type, team, architecture, etc." It's just creating a "generic xcode archive." When I go to "distribute content" it doesn't give the typical distribution methods like "App store Connect, Adhoc, Enterprise, or Development." What am I doing wrong? Thank you, Thomas

I received this email and i cannot for the life of me figure out how to renew a distritbution certificate and create a request for signature certificate. This is all so confusing and not easy to follow at all. Please help, my distribution certificates expires on October 27th. Dear Daniel, Your Distribution Certificate will no longer be valid in 30 days. To generate a new certificate, sign in and visit Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles.
