Provisioned iPhone not showing in Xcode Organizer (or iTunes) - iphone

I've recently set up an app id and provisioning profile and was able to test my app on the device successfully. I then downloaded some sample iOS XCode projects and upon deploying one of them and deleting the sample app from the phone have since been unable to sync the phone with iTunes or see it as connected in the Xcode organizer window (the device is still listed in the lefthand pane, but shows up as disconnected). All new projects created in Xcode are now greeted with the following message when I attempt to build and run on the device.
No provisioned iOS device is connected.
I'm running Xcode 3.2.5 and iOS 4.2.
Any ideas?
Many thanks.

Typically when I run across this issue I will
Disconnect the device
Clean the projects
Delete the device from the Organizer
Restart Xcode
Reconnect the device
Then the majority of the time the device will be recognized again. I do find it strange that even iTunes can't recognize it though. Maybe try restarting the device even?

I had the same problem and posted about it over at Apple.SE. Reinstalling iTunes fixed it for me.

On Xcode 5.1.1
Unplug device, remove device from Window->Organizer, Product->Clean, close Xcode, plug in device, start Xcode - Window->Organizer and add to Member Center
Hope this helps. The issue occurred for me when I enabled iCloud and there was a sync issue on iTunes.

App not running on device (iPhone)

Today, m getting strange problem. My app is not running on device(Jailbreak). Earlier I have run other app on the device. Yesterday, I have formatted device, now application is not running on the iPhone - 4.2.1.
I have added all the required things like provisioning profile. I have also checked in apple developer site. that device is added to that portal.
I have targeted my application to 4.2 as my device version is 4.2.1.
No error is coming when m trying to run the app. only it ends in “finished running app on iphone”.
M not getting where and what m missing..
Reset the Simulator . Delete the Build File. And Restart the xCode. And Run the yor Project.I Hope it will help you.
Go to your project and delete the build folder. Clean all the installed provision profile from device then restart Xcode. Hope it will help you.
Delete the Build File, Reset the Simulator , And Restart the xCode. And than run your project. and got output on device.

App builds & runs in iPhone Simulator, but doesn't deploy to iPhone

The app I'm working on builds & runs just fine in the iPhone Simulator, but, when I try to test it on an iPhone 4S, XCode says, "Finished running ..." immediately after I click "Run", and, when I look at the iPhone, there's no icon for the app at all. It's as though XCode doesn't detect that XCode isn't deploying the app to the device.
I've got a signed certificate, a developer profile, and a valid provisioning profile (XCode's Organizer says so). The provisioning profile is present on the iPhone.
I've tried restoring the iPhone, and I still get the same error.
How do I successfully deploy my app to the iPhone?
Edit:
It's deep in the comments of the below answer, but the problem was that I had a misspelled within Info.plist's required Required device capabilities section. I solved it by deleting that row.
few things to check:
clean your build folders and rebuild. In Xcode project navigator, under products folder, is your app present?
open iTunes and try dragging this app into iTunes. Will it show up in iTunes or do you get an error? if it shows up, can you install it to iPhone via iTunes?
Is you iPhone iOS version and Xcode version and build settings all in sync? I know some version of Xcode 4.x have issues build and running apps on iOS 4.x.

Verizon iPhone Provisioning Problems

I upgraded to XCode 4 and a Verizon iPhone 4. After installing I am unable to sign and run anything on device. Yes I HAVE added it to the portal (using organizer and on the website). I've downloaded the certificates, and everything checks out.
I get the message: XCode cannot run using the selected device. No provisioned iOS devices are available. Connect an iOS device or choose an iOS simulator as the destination.
Could this be due to the Verizon iphone being 4.2.8 and not 4.3?
EDIT: Also, my ipad runs fine on it. Both devices show up in organizer, have the team provisioning certificates, and show up in the portal, etc...
-d
The fact that the iPhone is from Verizon has absolutely nothing to do with provisioning.
Try removing all of the certificates that are installed on the device currently, and try again. If the device is included in the certificates, then you should be good to go. Also ensure that you are running a supported iOS version on the device as set in your Xcode project.
The foremost thing you'll want to do is make sure your app's deployment target isn't iOS 4.3 and is instead something lower. (Base SDK should remain as Latest iOS.)

Can't install app on Device 3.1.2

I can install my app with the profile in my IOS4.0 device, but the same profile can't used to install on IOS 3.1.2 device.
My Xcode is SDK 3.2.3+IOS4(SDK 4).
BTW, i set my "Base SDK" = iPhone Device 4.0, "IPhone OS Deployment Target" is "iPhone OS 3.1.2".
The error info is "A valid provisioning profile for this executable was not found."
Thanks a lot.
Are you a member of the iOS Developer Program? You are not able to test on device until you sign up.
Yeah. I ve been there. I used to face this problem when I used to try and sync up .ipa file that I created out of sdk 4.0+ with an iOS 3.1.2 based device through iTunes. Apparently, iOS 3.1.2 devices have some bug (or maybe it is in the iTunes) that the profiles don't sync up along with the .ipa file in them automatically sometimes.
But before that, you have to ensure that the iOS 3.1.2 device is provisioned with the profile in the first place. If not, thats the problem. If it is, then in such cases, I used to drag and drop only the provisioning profile first into the iTunes, then do a sync with the device (Nothing will seem to happen in this sync. This is for installing the profile into the phone.). Then drag and drop the .ipa file into the iTunes and then perform another sync. That used to work for me.
If you are facing this problem with the .app, then too you should try above. That should work.

Xcode 3.1.3 - Organizer The device is not activated. Please activate it using iTunes

I recently upgraded my XCode SDK to version 3.1.3 and my iPhone OS to 3.0. It is important to note that everything was working fine when I had OS version 2.2.1 in my iPhone. My iPhone Touch device is not jailbroken and I have a valid provisioning profile in the organizer which is linked to my iPhone Touch however it has a yellow circle next to it.
This is because in the organizer under devices it displays the ipod with version 3.0 (7A341) and then it Reads (in the section where the provisioning profiles should go):
This device is not activated. Please activate it using iTunes.
When I go in xcode and build the application it does so just fine, and the code signing is in fact assigned to the correct provisioning profile. But whenever I try to run it in the device I get "No provisioned iPhone OS device is connected.". This is because the organizer keeps telling me to activate the device using iTunes.
I have iTunes version 8.2 and the device is there and i can sync it just fine, however it keeps displaying that message in XCode. I have tried restoring my ipod about 10 times but I always get the same result, I have also tried powering off the iphone Touch and the computer but nothing seems to help.
Does anyone else have this problem?
I have the same issue, but I have an ipod touch version 2.2.1. It used to connect to Xcode 3.1.2, then I upgraded to 3.1.3 and it doesn't work. I reverted back to 3.1.2 and it does not work. It does work on a friends mac with 3.1.3 so there is something wrong with my iMac. Firewall is disabled. It connects to iTunes fine and it is activated. Just won't show up in the organizer. Rebooting does not work. I reset, and restored it and it still doesn't connect. The fact that it connects to a friends mac and not mine leads me to believe that upgrading the ipod to version 3.0 would not fix the issue.

Thanks to flycomputer i was able to resolve my problem with iphone os update to 3.1.3.
But i didn't need to make the symlink so check if it's done by itself or not before lunching the command :
$ ln -s /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/3.1.2\ (7D11)/ /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/3.1.3
This usually means your Phone is not activated with your provider. Can you actually make phone calls with your iPhone? Did you restore your phone via the XCode Organizer or iTunes?
Well it is not actually a phone it is an iPod Touch. I tried to restore it both via Xcode Organizer and iTunes with the same results.
This isn't the error I get, but try rebooting the iPod. Hold down the sleep/wake button on the top for a few seconds. When it asks if you want to turn off the device, move the slider to turn it off. I usually wait a minute and power it back on. This always works for me.
You are probably behind a firewall, with anti-spyware protection activated.
iTunes needs to connect properly to web (Apple, I guess) in order to activate correctly your device.
Disable the firewall, then launch iTunes, that worked for me.
