I have been an android developer and was thinking the life is not easy but then I found the iOS developer account and its relativity with project creation and other certifications.
I have developed the app, then in that App, I need to add FCM notifications. For this, I have installed FCM pod. And made necessary changes in the project.
Now its turn for me to connect my project with FCM ios ( and ios APNS with FCM server)
So good so far. Now I want to create a different team for this project. But When I create a distribution certificate it always creates a file with the name of the team I was using before i.e ABCD. I tried to create another profile but it just creates ABCD named file.
Can anyone tell what could be the problem?
2nd what are the steps required to create a production certificate for FCM to launch the app in the store?
Please discuss the first point in detail why it is happening? Why I can't change the name of the certificate.
Note: Whenever I try to create a development certificate it take another name
Please let me know what is going on..........
Xcode generates certificate fully automatic these days. You should let it automatically build them for you till you experienced more with apple signing process.
you can change any identifiers you want before sending any kind of build to appStore, (for example for test flight)
If you didn't upload to appstore yet, you can just login with your other account in Xcode and choose it from the team dropdown in signing section of general tap in Xcode. Then Xcode tries to sign the app with new credentials.
For FCM, follow the original documentation of FCM.
And at the end, Welcome to iOS world ;)

I'm working on a Xamarin application and I'm doing iOS builds to run and test on different devices using App Center.
Everything was ok, on Apple Developer I created the Ad-Hoc certificate, the provisioning file, and the identifier and it was all good.
During the last implementation, I added on Entitlements the Associated Domain due to enabling the possibility to use the App Link and let the user open the application using a link provided via email.
I updated the Identifier adding the feature also to it and I downloaded it and uploaded it again to the dedicated branch on App Center, but now when I try to download the app to the device I receive this message:
Unable To Install "App Name". This app cannot be installed because its integrity could not be verified.
I tried different ways trying to solve it:
Create a completely new certificate with a new identifier, provisioning, and .p12 file
Checked Entitlement feature list correspond to the identifier list on Apple Developer
Used different versions of SDK and Xcode on App Center
I already searched around on the web but they talk about the provisioning file list but I already checked and it is updated.
Thank you for your help and for your suggestions.
I'm trying to upload a new build to TestFlight. I was invited to App Store Connect as an admin, and I added my Apple ID in Xcode. There is already an existing TestFlight build a bygone developer has put up there, but I've taken over the project and need to update it. I can build the app in the simulator just fine, but when I try to make a build for a generic iOS device I get these two errors:
Failed to register bundle identifier. The app identifier "com.blahblahlbah.blahblahblah" cannot be registered to your development team. Change your bundle identifier to a unique string to try again.
No profiles for 'com.blahblahlbah.blahblahblah were found: Xcode couldn't find any iOS App Development provisioning profiles matching 'com.blahblahlbah.blahblahblah'.
I don't see any way to select a different team. Do I need to enroll in the developer program? I'm using Macincloud to try to build the app from Ionic, so I don't have an iOS device to set up two-factor authentication with, but I can get one if that is required to get this to work. Are there some build settings that I have to set up?
I eventually got the last developer to revoke their certificate. Turns out there was some issue with my account not being able to register for the developer program. After dealing with their support for a while I just made a new account. Then I was finally able to create a new certificate and select it in XCode. After that, it built just fine.
Here's the story:
I created a free developer account to build an app for a client.
I used this info for the Identity and Signing:
It came time to upload the app to TestFlight and to use the client's developer account.
I created the account in xcode using their apple id and updated the signing like so:
But now I got this error.
It was clear, so I updated the Bundle Identifier to this:
But again, now I am getting a different error, and I don't know what to do.
I do not have an iOS device to register, nor do I care to get one, since I'm not doing the testing - they are.
I did create an app in the App Store Connect, and it is set up like so:
As you can see I created it to match the Bundle ID from before and still no luck.
Any help is greatly appreciated. I just want to be able to get my Xcode project onto TestFlight using someone else's developer account (with their consent of course).
It needs to have at least one iOS device registered in order to create the development profile. Ask your client for the UDID of one of their devices and add that manually to the developer portal. If they don't have one handy, feel free to use: f978c5f2e861f71b340125a4fa8d130a6254a0b3 which will work.
Alternatively, switch to manual signing and do everything manually. That's my preferred method, but some say Xcode is finally good at managing profiles etc for you.
The only way to do this without a device is to turn off "Automatically manage signing" and manage everything at the Member Center.
You will need the distribution identity / certificate first. If the team already has one, you will need them to export it to you; otherwise you cannot upload.
Then register the app.
Then make a development certificate, and a distribution certificate for the app store, and download and install them.
Now you can archive and then export to the app store.
Apologies if this has been asked before. I am new to iOS mobile app development. I am further developing an iOS app that has been developed by another person. They sent me the source code and told me that all the signing keys/certificates/provisioning profiles are stored against the Apple Developer's Account (which I have access to). When I try to build/run the app through XCode it complains about Code Sign error (not having a matching certificate in my keychain) . How can I fix this error please? is the a way to download the.p12 file from the app's Apple Developer Account? Since the app provisioning profile and signing identity is only needed for running the app on actual devices (at least in my understanding), is there away of getting xcode to ignore about it just for the purpose of running the app on the simulator?
If you have a developer account add it to Xcode Preferences -> Accounts , then click Automatically manage signing
If you want to distribute the app, make sure you have a distribution private key in your keychain, from the old mac or create the new one
Generated new certificates in Apple Developer Centre.
It's weird i couldn't upload that certificates to GCM and also i couldn't see UPDATE button developer website.
It shows error {{ controller.errorMessage }}
How do I do that? Here's a screenshot of the Google Developer
You would have to import your GCM project to the Firebase Console (there won't be any changes, see my answer here) and update the certs from there.
While already importing, I would strongly advise toigrate your app(s) to start using FCM.
Same issue I was facing and able to solve !
Background : In my scenario we have an iOS App in the store and all our push notification configured through Google GCM (We were not using FCM). But we had situation where our APNS certificate is just about to get expired and we don't want to make any iOS Release(We had around 4k DAU on the current version)
Once certificate was expired any Notification we sent was throwing InvalidApnsCredentialfrom GCM.
Here is how to get out of this.
Configure you Firebase project. (Make sure you're logged into right Google account - the one you configured for setting up your GCM)
Goto : https://firebase.google.com > GET STARTED
Choose Import Google Project
You must see now all the GCM Project as below - If your logged in with correct account.
Choose the project.
Now your Firebase project is ready. It should look like below.
To Update new certificate.
Choose Setting gear at Overview.
Choose Project Settings
Now choose Cloud Messaging Tab & now you APNs Certificate section is visible.
If Certificate already expired - you must see RED flagged cell with UPLOAD & DELETE options. Upload new APNs certificate using * UPLOAD*.
You got better way to do it, please share your thoughts ! Cheers !
