We are facing issue with resigning the app which is developed by 3rd party. In this app we have Sharing functionality feature for which we have enabled Associated Domains capability. When we are signing the app with our certificate and profile this functionality is not working i.e when we are clicking on shared link in the app it is redirecting to app store page instead of content link. However, when 3rd party is directly using our certificate & profile then that functionality is working as expected. Could you please help us with the above issue why it is not working when we are resigning with our certificate and profile?

I am trying to distribute my Unity app to test flight. Build works on iPhone locally, archiving also works but when I start distribution to test flight I get this Error codesign command failed (/var/folders/gn/ql1bht8j2z7b18b3xtt0j7rr0000gn/T/XcodeDistPipeline.~~~2gmyFJ/Root/Payload/TondoJigsaw2.app/Frameworks/UnityFramework.framework: replacing existing signature /var/folders/gn/ql1bht8j2z7b18b3xtt0j7rr0000gn/T/XcodeDistPipeline.~~~2gmyFJ/Root/Payload/TondoJigsaw2.app/Frameworks/UnityFramework.framework: invalid or corrupted code requirement(s) Requirement syntax error(s): line 1:152: unexpected token: sQuaricon ) I am not sure what is the problem Team name is: “sQuaricon” Name Surname s.p. Bundle ID is: com.Squaricon.TondoJigsaw2 When I change bundle ID to com.testasd.TondoJigsaw2 (I do this in Xcode before archiving) that error disappears and I reach the part where I have to pick language. Even though this is not the solution, I think it is interesting, it implies issue might be with Bundle ID but this bundle ID is correct. I am using "automatically manage signing", I did not create any provisioning profile or certificate manually.

Hello Apple Developer Support, We are experiencing an issue when programmatically installing a trusted root certificate on EC2 macOS instances (ARM-based), running the latest version of macOS 14.7.5 (Build 23H527). We are using the following command as part of our automated setup process: sudo security authorizationdb write com.apple.trust-settings.admin allow sudo security add-trusted-cert -d -r trustRoot -k /Library/Keychains/System.keychain "$CERT_NAME" sudo security authorizationdb remove com.apple.trust-settings.admin This fails with the following message: SecTrustSettingsSetTrustSettings: The authorization was denied since no user interaction was possible In the past, as sugested in other posts (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/671582) we were able to bypass this issue by running: sudo security authorizationdb write com.apple.trust-settings.admin allow This worked successfully in prior versions, including earlier 14.x releases, and continues to work on Intel-based macOS instances. However, in macOS 14.7.5 (on ARM), this approach no longer works. We suspect this may be due to a change in how System Integrity Protection (SIP) is enforced, especially on EC2 ARM. Questions: Has Apple introduced any changes in macOS 14.7.5 that prevent modifying trust settings via security CLI on headless or non-interactive sessions? Is there an approved or documented way to install system-level trusted certificates programmatically on macOS 14.7.5 (ARM)? Are there alternatives for setting trustRoot certs in non-GUI environments, such as virtualized or cloud-hosted macOS instances? As further information we were thinking to use MDM Profiles but looks like it is also blocked Thanks

Hello everyone. I have a simple doubt, I receive an email informing that the Apple Distribution certificate will expire. I create one new in the Developer portal with one year duration. My doubt is, I need to do something more like open again the app in Xcode, insert new certificate and build it again, send to apple and everything? Or just creating this certification is enough? Is possible to increase this certification time or auto renew? Thank you!!!

Hello, I'm encountering an issue when trying to build and launch a Flutter app on a physical iOS device using Android Studio. Here is the full log: `Launching lib/main.dart on （iPhone Name） in debug mode... Automatically signing iOS for device deployment using specified development team in Xcode project: （Project ID） Running Xcode build... Xcode build done. 19.7s Failed to build iOS app Could not build the precompiled application for the device. Error (Xcode): Target debug_unpack_ios failed: Exception: Failed to codesign （Project Names）/build/ios/Debug-iphoneos/Flutter.framework/Flutter with identity （identity ID）. Error launching application on （iPhone Name）.` This only happens when using Android Studio. When I build the same project using Xcode, it runs fine on the same device. Background: I accidentally deleted all Apple accounts from Xcode recently. In Keychain Access, I had three identical certificates; I deleted the older two and kept the newest one. I suspect this may be related to provisioning or code signing, but I’m not sure how to resolve it within Android Studio. Any advice or steps to fix this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

The docs here outline how to create a CSR/ and request a certificate. https://developer.apple.com/help/account/certificates/create-a-certificate-signing-request "Accounts preferences Use Accounts preferences to manage developer account assets (signing certificates and provisioning profiles), add repositories, and add servers. To open Accounts preferences, choose Xcode > Preferences and click Accounts." I have the latest version of XCode, I don't see Preferences / Accounts anywhere? I can go here and create a certificate: https://developer.apple.com/account/resources/certificates/add but it wants a CSR, which loops back around to the XCode thing. So, I can't figure out how to create a singing cert for my iOS app. Launch Keychain Access located in /Applications/Utilities. This doesnt seem to exist in Mac OS Sequoia 15.5 https://developer.apple.com/help/account/certificates/create-a-certificate-signing-request

Hello Apple Developer Community, I'm experiencing a persistent issue with App Groups configuration for an iOS app extension that I can't resolve despite trying multiple approaches. I hope someone can help identify what I'm missing. Problem Description I'm getting this error when trying to build my iOS App Extension: Provisioning profile "iOS Team Provisioning Profile: com.idlrapp.Spleeft.SpleeftDataSaver" doesn't include the com.apple.developer.app-groups entitlement. My Setup Main App Bundle ID: com.idlrapp.Spleeft Extension Bundle ID: com.idlrapp.Spleeft.SpleeftDataSaver App Group ID: group.com.idlrapp.spleeft.shared Extension Type: Action Extension (Share Sheet) What I've Verified App Group Creation ✅ Created App Group group.com.idlrapp.spleeft.shared in Apple Developer Portal ✅ App Group shows as "Active" in the portal App ID Configuration ✅ Both App IDs (com.idlrapp.Spleeft and com.idlrapp.Spleeft.SpleeftDataSaver) have "App Groups" capability enabled ✅ Both App IDs are configured with the same App Group: group.com.idlrapp.spleeft.shared Entitlements Files Main App (Spleeft.entitlements): Extension (SpleeftDataSaver.entitlements): Xcode Configuration ✅ Both targets use "Automatically manage signing" ✅ Same Apple Developer Team selected for both ✅ App Groups capability shows correctly in Signing & Capabilities for both targets The Issue When I examine the downloaded .mobileprovision file, I can see it contains: However, Xcode expects to find: What I've Tried Multiple regenerations of provisioning profiles: Deleted all local provisioning profiles Toggled "Automatically manage signing" off/on Downloaded manual profiles from Developer Portal Verified App Group configuration: Double-checked App Group exists and is active Confirmed both App IDs have App Groups capability enabled Verified App Group assignment in both App IDs Entitlements cleanup: Ensured consistent App Group IDs across all files Removed duplicate/conflicting entries Clean builds and cache clearing: Product → Clean Build Folder Derived Data deletion Xcode restart Key Observation The provisioning profile contains com.apple.security.application-groups (which appears to be macOS-style) but Xcode expects com.apple.developer.app-groups (iOS-style) for the App Extension. The main app builds fine, but the extension consistently fails with this entitlement mismatch. Questions Is there a known issue with App Groups entitlement generation for iOS App Extensions? Should the provisioning profile contain com.apple.developer.app-groups instead of com.apple.security.application-groups? Is there a way to force regeneration of provisioning profiles with the correct entitlements? Are there additional steps required for App Extensions that differ from main apps? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. This is blocking our App Extension development and we've exhausted our troubleshooting options. Environment: Xcode: [Tu versión de Xcode] iOS Deployment Target: [Tu target] Developer Account: [Paid/Individual/Team] Thank you for your time and assistance.

Hello everyone, I'm facing a critical build issue related to Family Controls entitlements and would appreciate any insights or help from the community or Apple engineers. My Goal: I am trying to build and run my app on a physical device to test my DeviceActivityMonitor and ShieldConfigurationExtension. I have already been approved for the Family Controls (Development) entitlement. The Problem: When I try to build, Xcode fails with the following errors, preventing me from testing: For my DeviceActivityMonitor target: Provisioning profile "..." doesn't include the com.apple.developer.deviceactivity entitlement. For my SOSAppShieldExtension target: Provisioning profile "..." doesn't include the com.apple.developer.screen-time-api entitlement. The Core Evidence: This seems to be a server-side issue with how the provisioning profiles are generated. I have used the security cms -D -i command to inspect the downloaded .mobileprovision files. The inspection reveals that the profiles do contain the parent com.apple.developer.family-controls entitlement. However, they are missing the required child entitlements: The profile for my monitor extension is missing com.apple.developer.deviceactivity. The profile for my shield extension is missing com.apple.developer.screen-time-api. Troubleshooting Steps I've Already Taken: I believe I have exhausted all possible client-side fixes. Here is what I have tried over the past few days: Confirmed Approval: I am fully approved for the Family Controls (Development) entitlement. Enabled Capabilities: The "Family Controls" capability is checked and enabled for all three relevant App IDs (main app, monitor extension, shield extension) on the developer portal. Profile Regeneration: I have deleted and regenerated all provisioning profiles for all targets multiple times. Forcing a Server Refresh: I have toggled the "Family Controls" capability off, saved, and then toggled it back on and saved again for each App ID. Creating New Identifiers: I created a brand new, clean App ID for the DeviceActivityMonitor extension (com.sosapp.ios.devicemonitor) and created a new profile for it, but the error persists. Xcode Configuration: I am using manual signing in Xcode and have double-checked that each target is pointing to the correct, newly downloaded provisioning profile. I have also cleaned the build folder and deleted Derived Data multiple times. My Question: Given that my account is approved and the capability is enabled, but the generated profiles are provably missing the necessary child entitlements, this points directly to a bug in the profile generation service on Apple's backend. Has anyone else experienced this specific issue where the parent entitlement is present but the required child entitlements are missing? Is there a known workaround, or can an Apple engineer please investigate the profile generation for my Team ID? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I have a team I was added to for development XCode refuses to do it's job. It literally only displays 3 teams, and it refuses to acknowledge the fact that it's missing one of the development teams I am on. All I want to do is test this damn app. I have tried the following: Signing out and back in Clearing the cache at ~/Library/Caches/com.dt.XCode or whatever Clearing the cache at ~/Library/Support/XCode or whatever I really can't be bothered to remember, seeing as how they didn't matter I have tried searching high and low, manually installing certificates, I nuked my keychain after logging out and then restarted, logged back in, STILL NOTHING. I genuinely don't know what to do, and it's so frustrating because this is like, an issue I should have in 2005, not in 2025. Syncing a team from an account should not be something I have to search high and low for, find no answers, and then end up here, posting, when it's literally a GET/POST request. If I am doing something wrong, lord knows what it is. I can sign my other apps no problem.

I am trying to set up code signing for my macOS/Tauri app and I’m running into a problem with my Developer ID Application certificate in Keychain Access. Steps I followed: Generated a CSR on my Mac using Keychain Access → Certificate Assistant → Request a Certificate From a Certificate Authority. Uploaded the CSR to the Apple Developer portal. Downloaded the resulting .cer file and installed it in my login Keychain. The certificate appears under All Items, but it does not show under My Certificates, and there is no private key attached. What I expected: The certificate should pair with the private key created during CSR generation and show under My Certificates, allowing me to export a .p12 file. What I’ve tried so far: Verified that the WWDR Intermediate Certificate is installed. Ensured I’m on the same Mac and same login Keychain where I created the CSR. Revoked and regenerated the certificate multiple times. Tried importing into both login and system Keychains. Problem: The certificate never links with the private key and therefore cannot be used for signing. Has anyone experienced this issue or knows why the certificate would fail to pair with the private key in Keychain Access? Any workaround or fix would be greatly appreciated.

We've been creating iOS apps for a few years now, but when I tried last month, I got an error in my XCode that says: No profiles for 'com.os.hub.mth2' were found Xcode couldn't find any iOS App Development provisioning profiles matching '***.***.***.***'. I'm not sure if it's the cause or not, but when I look at the signing certificates, the Developer ID Application Certificate says: Missing Private Key The weird part of that is that I see a private key with this name in my Keychain access, so I'm not sure what's wrong. There has been a significant time gap between now and the last time we created a mobile app, so I'm not sure if something changed in XCode/MacOS to cause this issue, or if something expired. I'd appreciate any advice.

Hello, My project fails to build/run on a physical device or archive, due to a persistent provisioning error. Exact Error: Provisioning profile "iOS Team Provisioning Profile: com.huiwan.Ohra-Journal" doesn't include the BGTaskSchedulerPermittedIdentifiers entitlement. I have already performed extensive troubleshooting, and all local configurations appear to be correct: Capabilities: "Background Modes" with the "Background processing" option is enabled in the target's "Signing & Capabilities" tab. Info.plist: The Permitted background task scheduler identifiers key is present in the target's Info.plist, and it contains the correct task identifier (com.huiwan.ohra-journal.refresh). Entitlements File: The .entitlements file is correctly configured by Xcode. Full Reset: I have tried a complete reset procedure, including deleting ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData and ~/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles/, restarting Xcode, and letting the automatic signing system regenerate the profile from scratch. The issue persists. Despite all these correct local settings, the provisioning profile automatically generated by Xcode is consistently missing the required entitlement. This strongly suggests a server-side issue with the provisioning service for my App ID (com.huiwan.Ohra-Journal). I filed a bug report on the Feedback Assistant (FB20268285) a week ago but have not received a response. This issue is completely blocking my development and ability to submit the app. Could you please investigate the status of my App ID and the provisioning services associated with it? Thank you.

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 want to make an app for the customers to install ipa files without use of third party apps or Other devices like Xcode, ITunes

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.

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.

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?

I have not been able to open any of my apps since I uploaded my latest update midOctober 2023. Previously I have tried everything on forums from removing derived data, adding new options in build folder and more. Since then I have wasted hours trying to open any app from my iCloud / hard disk and I wonder if part of the problem is caused by backing up to iCloud, as I can open from an external hard disk. It takes almost as long to upload from hard disk than cloud so whole thing annoying, does this add clues to this frustrating problem ? Also when I opened one of my apps it had made hundreds of unassigned assets that all had to be removed individually. I have no idea how to continue with my work I have three other apps in progress, but am halted at present but such a stupid small detail. // here is full commet /Users/ruwickigmail.com/Desktop/0-APPS-2023/InstaAnimates/InstaAnimates.xcodeproj: warning: Unable to find a target which creates the host product for value of $(TEST_HOST) '/Users/ruwickigmail.com/Desktop/0-APPS-2023/InstaAnimates/DerivedData/InstaAnimates/Index.noindex/Build/Products/Debug-maccatalyst/InstaAnimates.app/Contents/MacOS/InstaAnimates' (in target 'InstaAnimatesTests' from project 'InstaAnimates') My bundle ID is fine but it crashes on loading so may be due to something in signing but everything looks fine. I note that there are hundreds of enquiries on the forums, but most are unanswered. as this is an regular Xcode Apple problem and there are hundreds of people being put of continuing with their apps could the Apple team look into this please.

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.

My non-cloud Developer ID certificate will expire soon, and my account also has a cloud-managed Developer ID Certificate. My Mac application build workflow uses Archiving, so the cloud cert should be fine for that. But my workflow also signs bundled apps, such as Sparkle framwork's Autodupate app, using the codesign tool. Is it correct that codesign only uses certificates from the local Keychain, and so cannot use a Cloud-managed Developer ID certificate? Before I manually renew the non-cloud Developer ID certificate, I want to make sure I'm not missing some easier method. Thanks.
