I'm having trouble getting Apple to generate an APN SSL certificate for my app ID. I've submitted the application to the Apple store, and it is pending review.
I tested the application using an Ad Hoc app ID "${bundle_id}.adHoc" and everything went fine. I submitted to the Apple store with app ID "${bundle_id}.release".
Now I want to generate my production APN SSL certificate for use with my release application ID - but the developer portal doesn't want to. When I upload my certificate request, it sits for about a minute before telling me:
"We are not able to generate your Profile at this time.
Please try again later or try using the Provisioning Portal"
Is it impossible to generate your certificate while the application is under review or something? Should I have generated it prior to submission?
The problem was indeed that I was trying to enable for push while the app was in review. Once the app was approved, I was able to get my push certificate. However, apparently you MUST enable for push BEFORE you generate your distribution provisioning profile, otherwise your app will not actually be able to register with the APN server when it is downloaded from the store.

My client is asking me to send an IPA build which can be sent to the Apple App store without giving me any access to the apple developer account, as he wants to submit the build himself.
As far as I know and researched, I need the account to set up the build, certificates, profiles, I cannot do this without having developer access to the Apple Developer account. If he would provide me with the certificates etc, even with those xCode would ask for the developer password of the account for validation.
I notified him of this, but they insist that this can be done.
Am I missing something? Basically he wants to do a submit of the IPA through Application Loader without giving me any access to Apple developer account.
Note: the app was developed with a different account.
I am trying to submit an iOS app through iTunes Connect.
However, when I try to validate the app it gives me an error saying : "This app contains an embedded provisioning profile that is not associated with your account. Please use a provisioning profile associated with the Team ID.
Is this because I am using different accounts for creating the provisioning profiles and for iTunes connect ?
I'm guessing you have submitted your app before signed with a developer certificate from one account and now your trying to do it from another.
To fix it visit this website http://blog.hoachuck.biz/blog/2012/12/04/use-a-provisioning-profile-associated-with-team-id/
Edit
I do think that using different accounts for creating the provisioning profiles and for iTunes connect will cause the issue. So just switch the provisioning files from the prov. acct for the itunes connect account. Provisioning files are easy to make, and Apple has a tutorial on what to do when you try to create one.
This app contains an embedded provisioning profile that is not associated with your account. Please use a provisioning profile associated with team ID : I am getting this error while I upload the build with Application loader.
I am using two different accounts.
1) For creating provisioning profile
2) For uploading in iTunes.
Everything had worked fine till date. I have updated my app several times in app store. I am using the same procedure but facing this issue.
What might be the reason? Its an emergency Please help me on this.
Apple does not allow anymore submission of an app on a developer account if this app have been signed using a different developer account certificate (different team ID).
You have no other choice than sign you app with the developer account certificate where you want the submission to be done. If the Bundle ID is already taken on the other/previous developer account, you will have to sign your app using a wildcar mobile provision.
If you need push notif or Game Center or anything that need to avoid a wildcar AppStore mobile provision, then you are in trouble => setup a brand new app (new app ID / Bundle ID) and plan migration of your customers from the old app to the new one ...

I Think i have cracked this issue, But dont know if there is still a better solution.
As i used a different accounts for creating provisioning profile and submitting it in iTunes, because of which i got this error.
Solution: We have to use the same account for creating the provisioning profile and also submitting it in iTunes. As a trial i did the same, it just worked fine.
I have finally updated my app to app-store successfully!
Reason:
Actually we had an corporate account and an individual developer account. Before we use to update using the individual account, Since the Apple Licence agreement changed some time back.
We cannot upload or update your app with the individual account if it is connected with the corporate account.
Soln:
Need to add or link the individual account to corporate account.
sorry for my bad english but i'm italian.
I have to release an app that will work on only a few devices. What should I do when the provisioning profile expires? Will the app continue to work or should I release it again with the updated profile?
thx all
No the app will not work after the mobileprovision expiration date. You need to renew your mobile provision, build again and sign the app with new certificate and resent to users the new mobile provision file and the new app.
Edit:
You can submit for an enterprise account an you will not have this issue again.
Not sure what you're really asking, but here is a quick answer with some points that might help you.
Ad hoc provisioning profiles last for 1 year. After a year the certificate is invalid and the application won't work any more. At this point you will have to create a new certificate (usually just renew the certificate will work) and re-release built against the new certificate. This will mean that anyone using the application this way will have to remove the app from their device and install the new package you send them.
When you release an application on the app store the certificate is permanent, you don't have to renew anything and apple will deal with it itself.
If you archived it, all you need to do is create a new .ipa (by selecting "Share" in the organizer) and sign it using the new profile.
If you didn't archive it you need to build it again and you'll need to reselect the code signing identities in the project settings.
Either way you need to send a new build or a re-signed archive to your testers, the new profile alone won't work.
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.
