I uploaded my app to the App Store using xcode. I can see my build in my existing app on iTunes connect. However when I want to add the build using the "+ Version or platform" option it shows me a disabled iOS button:
My build version is 2.0.
I received an email from Apple stating that the app completed processing. Any reason why I can't select it?
I found the solution. In my case I wanted to update the app to a newer version which wasn't listed in the "+Version or Platform" menu. The possible reason is that a previous build failed, with the status of "Prepare for Submission".
Select the build which is listed as "Prepare for submission" under "iOS App".
Scroll down till you see the build for that submission.
Delete the old build and select a new correct build.
Now scroll down more and change the version of your submission in the textfield to the build number of your correct build.
After doing that I was able to submit it to the App Store.
I had the same issue. I had to reject an app that was in "Waiting for Review" status since we had to update a bug that we found after we submitted the previous build. Once we did that, we were unable to add a new version and the ios option was disabled. To fix this:
I went to the same version that showed "Rejected by Developer",
Scrolled down to the build version,
Clicked the minus (-) icon next to the previous build to remove that,
Added the new build and
Saved and Submitted for review.
The version increment automatically updated after step 5 above based on the selected build.
GrangerFX has the answer.
In the App Store click on your app, then the version number under iOS App on left.
This will open the Prepare for Submission screen on right (unless you already did that).
Scroll down to "Build" section, and click the "do not enter" sign, which is some secret code that means delete (rather than a typical trash can). [Nice UI Apple! Keep trying, maybe you will get it right one day.]
Then you will be asked to pick a build. Choose your latest uploaded build.

I uploaded a new version of my app in iTunes connect and I do not want and/or need it - how do I get rid of it?
Currently the status shows Prepare For Upload with yellow dot..
I want to delete new version of app, which shows status of Prepare For Upload and not the old one which shows ready for sale status and new one is already available in store.
Is it possible to delete new version of app in iTunes Connect, without affecting old one?
Another work around for this is to simply go to the version you want to delete and update the version number.
I.e. in my case we had created an update for version 3.1.2, but now wanted the update to be version 3.2. Instead of deleting the newly created 3.1.2 version (which I don't think is possible), we updated the version number.
You cannot delete a new version you have created from iTunesConnect before you have uploaded a binary. You can only delete full apps - before or after review.
Apple give a fairly full description of what is going on here without saying explicitly that you cannot delete versions. They do say you cannot remove a platform once created - and they seem to work like versions.
I suppose they never imagined people would create a new version by mistake or as an exercise - but we do!
The only reason I can think of is as a safety measure so that you cannot strand people who have bought your app for a platform that you then remove. I am guessing versions work like platforms in the background and so Apple cannot give us the functionality for one and not the other.
You don't have to worry, Prepare to Upload status means the itunes is asking you to tell that you are ready to upload binary and click the button Ready to Upload Binary.. Your build must be rejected by someone, or you haven't yet uploaded any.
If you want to upload a new build you have to click Ready to Upload Binary, then the status will turn into Waiting for Upload, then if you upload the binary successfully it will turn into Upload Received, then it goes into Waiting for Review, next come In Review, then your status might be Rejected, or Ready For Sale, or Approved(It needs to be released manually)..
I hope above clears your doubt..
Update -
The process has been changed a lot, though You can't delete a Binary, you need to upload new binary by changing the build number if you don't want to change the Version number of the build. For the process of upload, we don't have option to make it Ready to Upload anymore.. You follow the following steps..
Upload a Binary of a specific version from XCode.
Check Activity Tab in itunesconnect of your app, it should show the uploaded binary in processing mode, it will get processed in sometime.
Click on your App Version which might be in Prepare to Submit state, go inside and add your recently uploaded and processed build and click on Save.
Then Submit for Review
Cheers.
You have to go to manage your applications and go to your app. There is a details button and click on binary details under the heading links.
there should be something like "reject the binary" on that screen.
I looked through the other questions for this, but they didn't answer my question. I'm trying to submit an update for my application, so in the iTunes Connect I clicked add a version and updated the version to 1.01. I then went into the info.plist and updated the bundle version to 1.01. I get the above error though when I try to submit it to the app store. In my Manage applications it says version 1.01 prepare for upload.
Rather than making the version change in the plist directly, use the summary tab on the project bundle's target page. Also, make sure your bundle identifier hasn't changed there either. Be sure to hit enter after any changes and check the next tab 'info' to see if the changes have reflected there. If those all match and you're still having an issue, contact apple.
You need to click the "Ready to Upload Binary" button before Xcode will find it.
Otherwise it's probably the precceding zero in your version number. You should use 1.1 or 1.0.1.
This seems very strange, I recently upgraded to Xcode 4.2 and I'm about to release an updated version of my app. When I go to the Build folder non of the builds seem to have changed and they are all dated from before I updated to Xcode 4.2
My code has todays date but I cannot see where the lates builds are. Does Xcode 4.2 store the builds in a different place or am I missing a setting in Xcode?
Click on the "Log Navigator" icon (speech bubble) in the left pane, and select the log entry for your build.
The log will contain the full path to your build. Often it's something like:
/Users/user/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/App-cmxgycqjtykiurgecgrmvvavwwjq
/Build/Products/Debug/App.app/Contents/MacOS/App
If you are doing a production build, I recommend using the "Archive" feature, which will do a clean build with all the right compiler optimisations, and then present you with the build in the organiser window.
You can then click "share" to save the app in whatever format you prefer (pkg, app, ipa, etc). In the case of an iOS app, this will also offer to embed the provisioning profile in the app, which is nice for ad-hoc deployment.
I'm running xcode 4.2 on snowleopard.
My Problem
When I click "Product -> Archive" in xcode, I am expecting the code signing dialog to pop up like normal and it doesn't
When I click the generated archive in the organizer and click "Validate" then "next" to login then "next" with my selected application, it brings up the window that says "Your application is being validated". I had some validation issues that I fixed so the validation seems to be working but it just hangs there. I would expect the code signing dialog to pop up again here and then the next window but just like the last issue, there is no code signing dialog here.
I've tried
Rebuilding the project
Rebooting my computer
Validating a known good build (it's made it past validation before)
Reinstalling xcode
I submitted my last version to Apple and they rejected it because it wasn't built with IOS 5.0. I upgraded to xcode 4.2 and haven't seen the code signing dialog pop up since.
What am I missing here? I think my problem is that the code signing window isn't coming up which it needs to so I can finish validation but I have no idea how to get it to come up.
Check the projects Build Settings, specifically the "Code Signing Identity" setting. Make sure you have selected an app store .mobileprovision profile for the Release scheme.
Also open up the Edit Schemes dialog and make sure that the active scheme has an Archive option. Make sure the Archive option uses the correct Build Configuration ("Release").
My application just available on the App Store but I found an error, so I fixed it. But from this point I don't see any sort of document about "how to submit updated application to App Store?".
Could you help me with any clear instruction? Which I have to change to make the new version replace the old version and available for user to updated?
Follow the same build process as you did before - build an App Store release binary.
Log into iTunes Connect.
Click on 'Manage Your Applications'.
Click on your application icon.
Click on 'Update Application'.
Fill out the form and upload the zipped version of the new binary.
