App Store Connect keeps blocking App upload by issuing
ITMS-90129: The bundle uses a bundle name or display name that is already taken.
So far I tried:
Changing the Display Name, Bundle Identifier (even with generated Hashcodes to make sure that the names really are not taken already)
Created alternative Profiles, Identifier and App in App Store Connect (also using the same mentioned hashcode)
Tried these changes in the Xcode input fields (under 'General') and also directly modifiyng the Info.Plist
Re-Exporting the project from Unity to XCode with the new naming (to make sure Unity is not writing some bundle id somewhere which is not visible in XCode)
(Update) Tried to Clean the build folder based on
minchaej suggestion
Additional information: The XCode project is exported from Unity and we're using Firebase which is installed via Pods.
I'm grateful for any hint where to continue looking - because I'm really running out of ideas. Thanks a lot for taking the time.
Cheers

The solution for this (probably very Unity-to-XCode specific) issue was localization related:
I had to remove all but the English localization entry in the Localization section.
I'm not sure why there were other loca resources before (since we didn't set them up) but I assume these included an alternative app name which was causing the ITMS-90129 to pop up.
My salvation for ITMS-90129 is the next:
Remove definitions for
CFBundleName
CFBundleDisplayName
CFBundleSpokenName
for base(en) localisation InfoPlist.strings.
Setup this variables with single value $(PRODUCT_NAME) directly in Info.plist
Variable $(PRODUCT_NAME) define via root project Build Settings/Packaging/Product Name
Setup variable LSHasLocalizedDisplayName in YES value in Info.plist
Setup Russian (or other) localisation for variables
CFBundleName
CFBundleDisplayName
CFBundleSpokenName
via InfoPlist.strings
As I am personally assume, setup this variables via base localisation is the key of problems in which I am faced with

I am working on some Swift code with my children. We would like to work from a shared codebase, so that we can each grab the code, then build and install the app onto our phones.
When I grab the source code my daughter wrote, I get the errors:
The app ID "com.example.OurApp" cannot be registered to your development team. Change your bundle identifier to a unique string to try again.
and:
Xcode couldn't find a provisioning profile matching 'com.example.OurApp'.
If I change the Bundle Identifier value in XCode to something globally unique, everything works. But I don't want to do that because then it is confusing what changes should be committed and/or shared.
The Bundle Identifier value seems to be statically attached to the project files, and those project files need to be checked into to source control, which means that we have to manually muck with that value before we can build and sign our app so that we can run it on our phone.
We each have a developer account that gives us the ability to sign an ipa with our certs, which allows us to install builds on our phone.
I think I want to make the Bundle Identifier dynamic based on the machine or user that is building it.
I think I want to type com.myfamily.$(SOME_ENV_VARIABLE).OurApp into the Bundle Identifier box in XCode, and then commit that file so that any of us can just grab the code, mess with the code, then install the signed ipa on our phone without changing any of the XCode project file values.
No matter what I type into the "Bundle Identifier" box in XCode, the resulting value in the plist within Build/Products/.../Info.plist is garbage. Even changing some .swift files causes this plist to change to some junk value.
How do I make it so that I can share an XCode project with my family such that we can each sign and run the app, without changing or git-ignoring any of the project files/plists?
We are using XCode 8.3.x and running iOS 10.
I'm developing an iOS app with a friend. We both enrolled for the Apple development program as a Single person (we don't have an organization).
We're using git and we'd like to be both able to build the app from our Mac, but I can't compile sinche the Bundle ID is already used by my friend. Is it even possible to be both able to work on the same project without being an organization? What we should do?
Thanks
The problem is that only one developer account can register the bundle ID. What Xcode is trying to do is register the bundle ID to your development account (as you can do manually at https://developer.apple.com). Since your friend already did this, you cannot do this as well.
What you can do is either change the value of your bundle ID to a development one (in the end, only one of you can release the app on the App Store) however, this is kind of messy since it'll change the .xcodeproj and can be a real conflict mess when using versioning (as I guess you are using).
Another option is to use .xcconfig files, and define the bundle ID dynamically in your project. This way you can change your config file locally and just don't push that change. What you do is:
Add a new file to your project. Select Other under iOS and then select Configuration Settings File. Save the file and call it Debug.xcconfig (or whatever you want).
Add the following row to the file: BUNDLE_ID = io.example.app.
Select your project in the Project Navigator and then select the project itself under PROJECT.
Select the Info tab and expand both Debug and Release. For both Debug and Release select the Debug option.
Now open your Info.plist file and change the value of Bundle Identifier (CFBundleIdentifier) to $(BUNDLE_ID).
Now you can change the bundle ID (and a shitload of other Xcode project properties) using the configuration file. You could add one for yourself and your friend as well, each with their own bundle ID.
One problem though when changing the BundleID is that services such as APNS won't work. Keep that in mind. If that is important that both should be able to test, then make sure to get an organisation account.
Hope this helped you a little bit!
For my iOS app I am trying to have multiple build configurations so I can create development and production builds that target different servers, configurations etc.
In Xcode I have created another build configuration and scheme to target this configuration. So I have the separate configuration/schemes as:
Dev version
PRODUCT_NAME=MyApp-dev
BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER=com.organisation.myapp-dev
Original Version
PRODUCT_NAME=MyApp
BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER=com.organisation.myapp
Both configurations can be built with the different schemes. Both will run on the same device because of the different identifier, but the dev version still shows MyApp on the home screen. When looking in the build products, it produces a MyApp.app bundle with a target inside it of MyApp-dev.
Is there another setting to change the wrapper name from MyApp.app to MyApp-dev.app? And any other setting that may be preventing PRODUCT_NAME setting to be used in the app display name?
edit: In the info.plist file, both the CFBundleName and CFBundleDisplayName are set to $(PRODUCT_NAME)
n.b. I have done this before with another app and all is working fine there, hence the query if another developer has changed a more targeted setting that overrides this change.
There was a InfoPlist.strings file in the project that was overriding CFBundleDisplayName. I removed this definition from this file and all worked as desired.
The project is not localised and so I never considered this override! Hopefully if someone else comes across this, remember settings in Info.plist can be overriden with localised strings in this file.
This may seem like a stupid question. But when I make a debug build, my app gets the correct name on the "ios desktop". When I use release build, it gets the name of the app I made some time ago.
I have been into project settings and changed it for all similar/device debug/release modes.
I have also made a Windows search and replaced all places found.
I do also use other provision profiles, but I am still wondering if it could be something like that? But I just do not believe that can be the case... So clearly me + Windows search is missing something somewhere....
Check the the name in your .plist for the Bundle Display Name. That is the the name of the end product. check this similar question App store name and info.plist
I tried to make the localization of the app name using CFBundleDisplayName.
I made the localized InfoPlist.strings according two different language.
In one strings file wrote:
CFBundleDisplayName="x11111"
and in another:
CFBundleDisplayName="y22222"
And in file info.plist, I added "Application requires iPhone environment" property, and set the boolean value to YES.
And in info.plist,the "Bundle display name" I used "x11111".
The localization worked ok on the simulator, but when tested on the device , it did not work.
On device, the name I used for 'Bundle display name' in info.plist can only be showed.
By the way, I use cocos2d for the project.
Anything I missed or did wrong?
If your localisation files were supplied to you, and you need to add them, be sure to add them correctly on per file basis. In Xcode, while you are adding files, pay attention how you add them. This is how they should look in Xcode Project Navigator.
I have added them by selecting all folders which didn't add them correctly to project.
