We are porting an Android app to iOS for a client. They have added our account to their iTunes Connect account and created an app entry. We developed the app using the bundle ID they specified.
But now, when the app is ready for testing, we can't create a provisioning profile in Xcode. It is set to Automatic signing and this error is shown:
Failed to create provisioning profile.
The app ID "<bundle-id>" cannot be registered to your development team. Change your bundle identifier to a unique string to try again.
Our account is added as an App Manager in their iTunes Connect account, but still we can't take output with this ID. This error is not shown if we change the bundle ID in Xcode.
Meet same Issue on one mac, but ok on another mac.
I'm sure bundle ID is fine and unique.
I know it is provisioning profile issue, so
Try refreshing the provisioning profile on your Local computer.
Then It Works!
cd ~/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning\ Profiles
rm *
Xcode > Preferences... > Accounts > click your Account and Team name > click Download Manual Profiles
Run app again
Go to Build Settings tab, and then change the Product Bundle Identifier to another name. It works in mine.
You have to rename Organization Identifier on Bundle Identifier on settings tab.
Only by renaming the Organization Identifier error will remove.
I had this same issue as OP and the problem was that I was invited only on appstoreconnect and not on developer.apple.com. After being invited as a member on developer.apple.com and going into the preferences in XCode, I got a new option to sign as a member of the organization. Setting signing team as member of organization in project settings fixed the issue. After that creating the provisioning profile was successful using automatic signage management.
This happened to me, even though I had already registered the Bundle Id with my account. It turns out that the capitalisation differed, so I had to change the bundle id in Xcode to lowercase, and it all worked. Hope that helps someone else :)
Changing Bundle Identifier worked for me.
Go to Signing & Capabilities tab
Change my Bundle Identifier. "MyApp" > "MyCompanyName.MyApp"
Enter and wait a seconds for generating Signing Certificate
If it still doesn't work, try again with these steps before:
Remove your Provisioning Profiles: cd /Users/my_username/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles && rm * (in my case)
Clearn your project
...
If this persists even after clearing provisioning profile and re-downloading them, then it might be due to the bundle ID already registered in Apple's MDM push certificate.
None of the above answers worked for me, and as said in the original question I had also to keep the same bundle identifier since the app was already published in the store by the client.
The solution for me was to ask the client to change my access from App Manager to Admin, so that I had "Access to Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles.", you can check if it is the case in the App Store Connect => Users and Access => and then click on your profile (be sure to choose the right team if you belong to multiple).
Once you are admin go back to Xcode and in the signing tab select 'Automatically manage signing', then in Team dropdown you should be able to select the right team and the signature will work.
My problem was I was modifying the settings for the wrong version of my app.
I had "Debug" selected instead of "Release", so my bundle identifier was not accurate when it came time to Archive.
error message
The app identifier "my.bundle.id" cannot be registered to your development team because it is not available. Change your bundle identifier to a unique string to try again.
try this
Apple developer > Account > Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles > Identifiers
I encountered the same problem when I was trying to compile a sample project provided by Apple. In the end I figured out that apparently they pre-compiled the sample code before shipping them to developers, so the binary had their signature.
The way to solve it is simple, just delete all the built binaries and re-compile using your own bundle identifier and you should be fine.
Just go to the menu bar, click on [Product] -> [Clean Build Folder] to delete all compiled binaries
Clean Build Folder
I had the issue with different development teams. I just checked the schema signings and picked the correct development team for the schemas that I needed:
I delete the Bundle identifier in the https://developer.apple.com/account/resources/identifiers/list, then it works.
IF you are working with different build configs then check in Signing & Capabilities Tab are you using Correct Bundle Identifier.
For Xcode v12 and above
Open the .xcworkspace file using Xcode
Then go directly to the General section, you'll see Bundler Identifier
Then change the name in the bundler identifier
for example com.myapp-dev.app should be changed to com.myapp.app.
This worked for me.
I was able to get the original bundle identifier to work on my paid team membership account (after having it assigned to my personal team) by revoking the personal team signing certificate that was assigned to the same account id.
On the Apple Developer website sign in with the paid account it, go to Certificates, IDs & Profiles.
Click the personal team certificate.
Click the Revoke button.
Go back to XCode and try signing again. A new certificate will be generated that should work with the bundle id.
This won't work if you still need the certificate for other apps.
If none of the above solutions work, you may want to check your folder names. I had another folder, within a separate parent folder but sharing an ancestor directory, with the same name as my project folder. Renaming the other folder to something else resolved the issue. If I had to guess, Xcode was looking for the project in the parent directory, found the alternate folder with the same name and got confused...
Due to Security issue my client do not want to share the personal credentials. He just add my apple id in developer.apple.com
After that I create the certificate from key chain and add it into apple developer Account.
My client also add the bundle identifier and send it to me the latest certificate
Now you need to add Team account
Note: You must add team account not your apple id account
In my case i got 2 ids one of mine muhammadusman17....#gmail.com and the other one is "CHT Team" i just select the CHT Team then its working perfectly
Remove your account from xcode and sign in again:
Xcode -> Preferences -> 'Acount' Tab
Choose your account and tap '-' in the bottom left corner
Tap '+' and sign in to your account again
Archive
As per shown in the picture go to runner and then click on release set your team correctly it will solve your issue thanks
I know it sounds incredible stupid and unbelievable, but what I did to fix it - after 2 hours, was changing my bundle identifier to all lowercase and appending "123" at the end.
This really solved the issue. I don't know why, as I am not a xcode developer.
The only thing that mattered was getting it running on a physical device.
What worked for me was to simply just delete the identifier from the previous developement team on the page Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles.
Solved by Just --> bundle identifier to all lowercase
check in apple Developer & same use in Xcode project
Issue will be solved 100%
Changing the bundle identifier to all lowercase fixed the problem for me
At the center top of your XCODE screen, change your device.
For example: Apple Pie>iPad Pro (12.9-inch)(5th generation)

^change this to your device ^
I am trying to upload this ionic project for iOS devices using Xcode 7.3. I successfully created all the certificates and app ids and then archived. But after that, when I click on the validate option I get an error, which I do not understand!
The error says:
Failed to locate or generate matching signing assets:
Xcode attempted to locate or generate matching signing assets and failed to do so because of the following issues.
An App ID with identifier 'com.*****.******' is not available. Please enter a different string.
THankx in advance
I got the same issue with upload from Xcode7.3. Before xcode7.3 that we dont need to create an app on iTunesConnect and we can create an IPA file and all the things. But i did Fix this issue by following:
Open iTunesConnect and login with Apple-id password.
Create new iOS app and select the identifier that we used in our Xcode project.
After that you just need go in Xcode and select device and create an archive.
Do the same step that you did before and the error goes away.
I got the same issue. Check the following steps :
1) Check if the bundle ID of your project in Xcode is same as the bundle ID associated with your AppID in Member Center.
2) Make sure you are selecting the correct Distribution Certificate and provisioning profile.
3) Make sure you have created an app on iTunes connect. Crosscheck the bundle ID there as well.
Now try to archive and validate again. Hope this solves your problem.
The executable was signed with invalid entitlements.
The entitlements specified in your application’s Code Signing Entitlements file do not match those specified in your provisioning profile.(0xE8008016).
I am getting this error. please help me.
I have create the provisioning profile and change the bundle id. I have enable the keychain sharing from Target->Capabilities and generate the new .entitlement file. and i have also change the bundle id in that.
In my case (using XCode 10.0) nothing worked but this:
File > Project Settings... > Shared Project Settings: > Build System
--> Selected "Legacy Build System" instead of the default "New Build System (Default)".
For me in Xcode 5.1, I was getting The entitlements specified in your application’s Code Signing Entitlements file do not match those specified in your provisioning profile. when trying to test the app on my device. Device Development Certificate has to expire Feb 2015.
Issue was resolved:
Selected Target->Capabilities, under GameCenter, here I was getting error on GameCenter entitlement as it was not added to project, although first version of application was released via same XCode 5.1 but there were no errors like this before.
Below, a button was given with title Fix Issue. When clicked it added the GameCenter entitlement and issue was resolved.
After wards the screen looks like:
For me, there was nothing to do with certificate or bundle identifier. App now runs successfully on the device.
In XCode 7.3 I encountered the same question, I 've made the mistake because:
Name in (info.plist -->Bundle identifier) is not the same as (target-->build settings -->packaging-->Product bundle identifier). Just make the same, that solved the problem.
As others have pointed out, if you get this error, you need to check that the Bundle ID value in both your .plist file and also here:
First of all, you should check bundle id, provision profile and certificate with private key (.p12).
If it doesn't help. Be sure that the Code Signing Entitlements has correct value or remove it at all.
File > Workspace Settings > Build System > Legacy Build System
This worked for me.
Xcode 10.0
Reassign the value of Automatically manage signing, this works for me
In my case, the app main Target's Team was different from Tests' Target Team. Changing the Tests' Team to the same Team as main Target's solves the issue.
None of the previous answers either applied or worked for me. In my case, updating the settings of the test project, as follows, fixed it:
One possible reason for this error is: your annual subscription has been renewed. Once the subscription is renewed, all devices related to the active provision profiles will be detached.
The admin must reactivate the list of devices for the new subscribed year.
The admin must delete last year provision profiles. (all are useless).
The admin must regenerate new provision profiles for the new year with the list of devices of his choice.
After this, rebuild project with Xcode and the error will disappear.
Had this issue. My main app and extension belonged to the same app group id correctly, but there was also one more app ID not in my project that shared said app group id. I had to remove this last app ID's association with the app group.
I was having same issue on Xcode 7.3 with iPad Air 2 with iOS 9.3.4!
Then I tried many options.
Finally I deleted profile from device, changed bundle identifier in project settings, and whola!
It worked for me.
P.S. I was using free provision profile using free Apple ID.
for me, just press cmd+, then go to account ,chose your developer account refresh(XCODE6) OR download all (XCODE7) will fix.
This happened to me when I was trying to build an App-store ipa exported file on my device, I had to export ad-hoc instead.
You should check provision profile is Product or Develop, if your project use multi configuration
You should check configuration which called by schema, because it must make sure, your configuration was set provision Develop
Check your bundle identifier and your profiles. If you have a profile for a specific bundle identifier and no team ones and your bundle identifier does not match it will give you that error.
Bundle identifier is in General section of your project properties and the profiles you can check in build settings.
In my case, I had a duplicate Provisioning Profile with the same name. This was accidentally created when I added an share extension to my project, stash all of those changes with git, and created a new share extension with the same name (com.companyname.project.share-extension-name). Deleting the Provisioning Profile in the developer member center (developer.apple.com) fixed this for me.
Had this issue with a cordova / ionic3 app, was caused by forking a main app and not selected again the legacy system in project settings. I selected legacy and the entitlements bs went away.
Had the same problem, nothing was helping, but I looked in Info.plist and found out that bundle ID was changed to other name (I don't know how it happened), so when I changed it to correct one everything was fine again.
I have also this problem when I do with XCode project what is exported from cordova framework.
Resolution : You have to create Apple-ID and Provisioining-profile by yourself. Because Xcode seems to be unable to create it for you.
For me, it was an inconsistency between Debug profile (it was automatic) and Release profile (it was manual). Setting them both automatic/manual resolved the issue.
I had to delete all the provisioning profiles by following this article.
Here I already added a new version of my app on the iTunesConnect, and the status of the new version is at 'Prepare for Submission'. However, I have a problem with verifying my new build and submitting it to iTunesConnect.
The Error I got is An App ID with Identifier 'xxx.yyy.zzz' is not available. Please enter a different string
Here I left out the Bundle Identifier because I do not want to expose my app ID anyway, but I certainly sure that the bundle Identifier, Version, and Build version is exactly the same as what I added to the iTunesConnect (1.20).
I also already archived the app, but got stuck at the verifying process, and got this An App ID with Identifier 'xxx.yyy.zzz' is not available. Please enter a different string error.
Is this the proper way to submit a new build to the iTunesConnect? I think the system should match the App Bundle ID with the one registered at the iTunesConnect's database, and simply verify and upload a new build for me. I do not really know what is wrong here. It seems that the XCode is trying submit the new app, but cannot go through because the Bundle ID is already registered (with the previous version).
You should check the certificate and the AppId
Let XCode automatically manage the certificates and profiles to use:
on the Project Navigator click on the app
go to Build Settings
find the Code Signing section
change the Provisioning Profile to Automatic from the drop-down
change the Code Signing Identity to iOS Distribution
if the project builds without errors, you can Archive, Validate and Upload to App Store
the build will be available on iTunesConnect
If something is missing XCode will ask to fix it for you.
This is not related to the app version on iTunesConnect.
When submitting a version for review you can chose the build to use.
I also encountered the same problem. Xcode7.2.1.
Effective solution is：
You can try:
Closing Xcode.
Opening the keychain，deleting the certificate with the corresponding key string.
Opening Xcode, Preferences -> View Details -> Reset Certificate
Choosing the right certificate.
