I archived my app and then put it through validation. a window came up titled "Choose an application record and an Identity to sign with" and then a yellow triangle and the message "No identities are available for signing" was displayed and options for Downloading Identities and Import Developer Profile.
I chose Download Identities and received the message after it logged into my IOS Dev Center account "An administrator must request identities before they can be Downloaded".
codesigning error warnig http://imageshack.us/a/img824/4080/validate2.gif
I then chose the "Import Developer Profile" and it and was also unsuccessful.
I checked the code signing and got noticed the error warning no profiles currently match and that and that the application identifier com.jarrahbridges...... profile doesnt match application identifier com.jarrahBridges........
In organiser my provisioning profiles state they are Valid Profiles all my certificates in my key chain (numbering 6) are all valid.
Any direction on this would be most appreciated
I was having the same problem and the problem was my Distribution Certificate was created it on another Mac. Here are more details:

Create AppStore provision profile at the Developer Portal, then update xCode profiles (xCode -> Preferences... -> Accounts).
Create an achieve and press "Validate"
You now are able to validate the archive agains you Distribution Certificate and AppStore Provision profile
Don't know is it a bug or feature, though.
Try following these instructions. Basically there are multiple places where you have to tell Xcode what your bundle identifier is and what the provisioning profile is. I can't believe this stuff is totally overlooked in the iOS Developer Distribution Guide by Apple.

Also, go into Build Settings for your project and go to Code Signing. Make sure the Code Signing Identities are all set to the iDevice Distribution App ID you created in iTunes Connect as well as the Provisioning Profile set to the Provisioning Profile you painstakingly created in the iOS Development Center as well (that Ad Hoc provisioning profile file you created and downloaded into Xcode.)
Apple was great at walking you through creating the Distribution Certificate and Ad Hoc Provisioning Profile, but when it comes down to getting things bundled up in Xcode, they left a lot out.
https://developer.apple.com/library/IOs/documentation/IDEs/Conceptual/AppDistributionGuide/Introduction/Introduction.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40012582-CH1-SW1
I would say that if you still can't get it working with an Ad Hoc provisioning profile, try generating an App Store Distribution Provisioning Profile within the "Certificates, Identifiers, and Profiles" portion of the Development center , import it into Xcode (by refreshing the provisioning profile list under Xcode->preferences->accounts->details->refresh button) and go through the validation process of your archive again. I'm not sure if it's because Xcode can't validate an Archive with an Ad Hoc profile or what, but it seems to pick up the Distribution Provisioning Profile just fine and allows you to validate. Don't worry, even if you don't validate the archive with the Ad Hoc provisioning profile, you can still create the .ipa for your archive by hitting the Distribute button in Organizer->Archives and choosing the Ad Hoc profile so that you can beta test it.

I have a Watch-App and by creating a Distribution provisioning profile a few weeks ago, there was an option to enable HealthKit.
Now it turns out that I do not need HealthKit in the Watch App.
(and therefore did not activate it inside WatchKit Extension's - Target's - Capabilities as the following picture shows):
So far so good.
But now Xcode keeps giving me these 2 Warning messages (obviously since the original provisioning profile includes HealthKit but the settings in Xcode don't)...
Code Signing Warning: Provisioning profile "iOS Team Provisioning Profile:
bundleID.watchkit.extension" for "MyApp WatchKit Extension" contains
entitlements that aren't in the entitlements file:
com.apple.developer.healthkit.access. To use these entitlements, add them to
your entitlements file. Otherwise, remove unused entitlements from your
provisioning profile.
I tried to follow the Apple manual and there is says that under The developer portal (Certificates) one should be able to change the options a provisioning profile consists of.
So I did go there and pressed "Edit" on my provisioning profile of choice:
But here the bad surprise:
Unless the explanation in the manual - THERE ARE NO LONGER ANY SETTINGS-SWITCHES THERE ANYMORE WHERE TO CHANGE THE HealthKit ENABLE/DISABLE STATE !!
What is there to do in order to disable HealtKit ?
Also: Removing the old provisioning profile and trying to create a new one does not work - SINCE THIS PROVISIONING PROFILE CREATION MASK DOES NOT SHOW ANY ENABLE/DISABLE SWITCHES ANYMORE (NOT LIKE A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO....!!!)
Delete the provisioning profile in the Apple Developer Portal then create a new one
On Apple Developer Account > Identifiers section, select your app bundle ID, then here you can untick HealthKit-related capabilities. Once this is done, you can regenerate the matching Provisioning Profile, and it should no longer have HealthKit.
I am currently about to start work on an iOS app for somebody but they have there own Apple Developer account which they would like to us. How do I go about setting my MAC up so that I can use their account to build, develop and test their app on my Devices?
I am assuming that I will need to create a separate user account on my MAC. I have done this but when I try to install the certificates that they have created I get errors such as "Valid signing identity not found".
Why could Apple not make this process simple, I am always having to refer back to the documentation and still get confused just to start creating a new app!
You do not have to create a new user account on your Mac for this, but I know some developers prefer to have separate accounts when they are working with more than one developer account, for ease of development & distribution provisioning profiles.
If your client adds you (by Apple ID --> email address) as a team member to their account (assuming their account belongs to a company and not an individual) then you can start the development process by requesting and later receiving a signed development certificate. You'll then also need the required provisioning profile(s) to develop/distribute builds of the app.
No, you won't need to create separate account. Xcode provide the facility to use several provisioning profile and certificate at the same time.
For more information check this thread - Multiple Certificates/Provisioning Profiles in one Xcode organizer?
First of all you don't need to create new account on your Mac to develop iOS application. In Xcode 4 it become very easy to start developing and signing application. All you need to do is go to Organizer (most right button on Xcode toolbar). In Provisioning Profiles section you can see Refresh button on the botoom of the screen. When you click it ask you about your developer account information such as account name and password. Then it tries to install all profiles and certificates to your Mac automatically. Then you could select your profile and sign your app. If automatically install fails, check yourself that you download all you need for this.
Create keys on your mac and submit to Apple.
Download your certificate and WWDR certificate. Two!!!!
Add your device to the devices section and create Development certificate (Distribution as well ). Download it manually or via refresh in Xcode Organizer.
Hope it helps. Sergey!
Once you have your Apple Developer Account Credentials, You can follow gist I have created:
Apple's Code Signing Process
We are in the process of submitting an iphone app to the app store. We've tested it using an adhoc distribution provisioning profile, however I was wondering if I need to create a separate provisioning profile for the app store.
On the distribution tab in the provisioning area, it enables me to create a distribution provision profile for the app store. Do I need to build the app with that in order to submit it?
Ad hoc would will not work. For me dealing the certificates and provisioning profiles is a very annoying experience.
This is what I needed to do to submit an app:
In Developer under iOS Provisioning Portal I needed to generate 4 certificates and download the WWDR intermediate certificate to be able to submit my app to the App Store:
Under Developer Certificate section (link) generate a Developer Certificate. Also Make sure that you have the WWDR intermediate certificate installed, if in doubt download it from there.
Under Developer Certificate section (link) generate a Distribution Certificate (This is not that will show up in Xcode!)
Under Provisioning section (link) generate a Development Provisioning profile certificate
Under Provisioning section (link)generate a Distribution Provisioning profile. THIS WILL SHOW UP IN XCODE AS A DISTRIBUTION CERTIFICATE!
After that I was able to select the iPhone distribution profile generated at 4. Also make sure that your target and project settings are the same.
I hope it helps
Yes, the adhoc will not work, you need to rebuild / archive with the profile made for distribution app store
Back in 2009, I did use my ad hoc provisioning profile to submit the app to the store:)
But looks like things have changed since then. I guess the answers say it will not work because the application validators detect this?
So I'm not that familiar with the process of Provisioning profiles and certificates.
Currently I have one app I'm developing that I can upload to my device.
Now, for testing reasons, I want to write a very simple app and to upload it to my device as well. The thing is, is that I don't want to configure another app in iTunes connect and provisioning profiles, so I thought maybe it's possible just to change the bundle identifier of the second app to be the same as the first.
However, in XCode I get the following error :
"Code Sign error: The identity 'iPhone Developer' doesn't match any identity in any profile"
Any way to make this happen?
If you set the bundle identifier of the 2nd app to be the same as the 1st, the 2nd app will replace the 1st one on your phone.
If you want the ability to have both apps installed at the same time, you need a new app id.
But you don't want to create a new app id for each test project.
The idea is to recreate the Team provisioning profile available for the Company developer program (I guess you subscribed to the individual developer program).
Create a new app id with bundle identifier set to *
Create the provisioning profile associated to this app id
Download and install this generic provisioning profile
With this wildcard profile, you will be able to install any test application.
Please request a certificate to apple through your paid developer account, generate a provisioning profile and install this in mac as well as in your device. then choose your provisioning profile and build and run your app through this provision.then it will install in device. There are details in developer.apple.com regarding to this. If you feels confusion please mail me sandeep.kniit#gmail.com. i will reply you asap.
My app's provision profile expired 2 days back, i created a new one and now it gives me the error:
Code Signing Entitlements Do Not Match Provisioning Profile
EveryThing is same,jus the profile name is changed..
Anyone here knws wat's the problem??
It can happen that you have not created your provisioning profile for the same application id.
The easiest is to create a provisioning profile for the app id "*" (in case you are not using special things, like push) - and you can use this provisioning profile for every application of yours.
Also - you can delete your provisioning profile from the apple developer website and your xcode organizer, and you click on the refresh button in organizer then xcode will talk to the apple dev website and download a new one for you.
Hope this helps, Moszi
