Build options for uploading new version of app to AppStore? - ios

I had submitted my app and Apple responded to it and rejected it by identifying an issue of auto layout. Now I have done auto layout in my app and built a new archive with a new version and uploaded the archive to the AppStore successfully.
But I don't know what to do next to in the iTunes Build options. Can anyone help me with what to do next? This is first time I'm updating the app.

Your build is rejected, not version. So you just have to update your current Build
Version, but application version must be same. And then upload new version on AppStore and you will see new version in Activity Tab.
After adding version, click on App Store tab, go to your current version, and new build from Build section. Now, you can click on Submit for Review.
You can also checkout AppleDoc for more information.
Here is the pictorial description to update version from xCode.

Even doing that the the new version it's still not publish but it says its ready to send, what more do i have to do? I can't find the place to do that.

Can't find my iOs build in iTunes Connect after upload by Xcode

i'm trying to upgrade an iOs App on the App Store by releasing a new version. I've the iTunes Connect Account and I'm working on Xcode.
I've updated the Version and Build values from 1.0.15 to 1.0.16 in the Identity Section of my app *-Info.plist
Then I uploaded the build to the iTunes Connect from Xcode by doing:
Product -> Archive -> Validate -> and then Upload to the App Store...->
I selected the automatic signing authentication and chosen the App Team for profiling that I want the build to be uploaded to.
Xcode has uploaded the build to the iTunes Connect and no error have been thrown.
Now, when I go to my iOs build on the App Store, I expect to find it, but there isn't.
When I upload it again I now have this error:
It seems that the Apple Server already got the release.
So? Where is my build gone? How can I found it?
I read in some SO threads that there was a Prerelease View in the iTunes Connect but I'm unable to find it any more. Maybe it has been replaced?
EDIT 1
This is my Build iOs on iTunes Connect view.
The open tab is the previous build, my new one 1.0.16 it is not present in the list and I can't find it anywhere..
I knew that I could upload a newer version by incrementing the version and build.
If it will not appear soon I will assume an error occurred and try to submit a new one.
EDIT 2
One week has passed and the build hasn't appeared. So I have uploaded a new upgraded version to 1.0.17, but it's still not appearing in my activity tab.
I would like to point out that before loading the previus 1.0.16 version, I had already created a new app version in the App Store Tab.
Can this possibly causes the issue?
What else can it be?
I'm gonna wait a little more and if not appearing i'll open a support ticket.
Solution: check your email !
After days of waiting I discovered that my iTunes Connect associated email address had received feedback from the iTunes Store Team. The emails said there was issues on the app (Missing Info.plist key) that prevented the delivery to be processed.
It is important to check your email address from apple communications because some of that information cannot be found elsewhere!
If the build is uploaded to appstore, then it will take some time normally. In the mean time You can see your newly uploaded build in the activity section under the version of the app with a processing label in brackets(see ).
Once uploaded build with a version number and build number cannot be uploaded to appstore again.If you want to upload new build to appstore, then either change the version or build number and try again.

Uploading new build for released application iOS?

My app store application has gone through review process, I made a release now it shows the Ready to Sale status. At this point we have figured out a small bug which we have fixed.
I have uploaded new build version with this fix on iTunes connect via my XCode. I am able to see this build. Now I want to submit this new build for app review. I don't see an option for submission of this build for app review. Do I need to create new version for this ? Can't I upload new build for same version under ready to sale for submission to review.
Also I want to change some of the screen shots I don't see options for this also.
You need to create a new version of your app to do that. You can not change an existing, 'ready for sale' app.
For uploading a new build, you need to create a new version on iTunes. After creating a new version you can submit it with your latest build & also update all the details which you desire & all those will be reviewed & made live once apple review those.

If anyone knows, please let me know.
Thanks.
One more thing I forgot to tell that Also I want to update screenshots and description details.
For creating a brand new version, just upload the binary, and then cancel it. As I see you updated your question, this is a final solution for you then.
For uploading a build:
1. Access the version page.
Sou you should see a frame that will contain your build.
2. Your binary should be uploaded via
a) Xcode
b) Application loader
iTunes connect will pair your binary with the version according to the App ID and version saved in the Xcode target settings.
If you need to have the version of 2.0 for instance, change the version number both in
Xcode target build settings
within the App version page
First Try to upload it again.
If your upload is successful, it should be changed your status to Waiting For Review.
after change the status to waiting for uplaod -->> waiting for review and after that you an remove this app an add the new version and uplaod again.
follow this step:
step1- you can upload this build and change the status to waiting for review.
step2- after change the status you can delete this version.
step3- and create the new version and upload again with same screen shots.
To delete an app from the store and iTunes Connect
Open the App Details page for the app, as described in Creating an iTunes Connect Record for an App.
Make sure that the app status allows deletion.
You can delete your app if there is at least one approved version of the app and the latest version status is one of the following:
Prepare for Submission
Invalid Binary
Developer Rejected
Rejected
Metadata Rejected
Developer Removed From Sale
Removed from Sale
If your app has a different status, you can delete the app by first rejecting the build or by removing the app from sale. See Viewing and Changing Your App’s Status and Availability.
You can see more details at Transferring And Deleting Apps
Status for your Version 1.4 is waiting for upload. That means you must upload the App with Version 1.4 If you have already uploaded the app with version 1.4 and you don't want to use that build just increase the build number and keep the version number same 1.4.

itunes connect replace binary when status is "waiting for review"

We found bug after we submit the binary for approval in itunes connect and we upload a new build but we can not figure out how to replace the new build in itunes connect. the status of the build active.
Any of you knows how can replace the binary is for a approval with the new version of the binary?
I found this : How to replace app in itunes connect, while waiting in review?
But it seems to make reference to the old version of itunes connect.
Create a new build with new version, say your app version is 1.0, you need a new build with 1.0.1 but keep the version same.
Submit the build from xCode and wait for sometime, it takes a while to show up in the iTunes connect
In your app detail page now you should be able to click Build and select the right build version
I think this is what i did when i had the same scenario. Hope it helps!
Create a new Archive with new Bundle version Short,String In Your Info.plist. Ex.1.1 After That And Yes Donot Change Your version keep it same as previous vesion.
After That Upload Your Binary
Your App Detail Page Go to build setting and Remove Old Binary And Choose new binary that you previosly uploaded..It may Be help you.
You can't remove and replace the build anymore until you remove the app from review.
You go to your app detail page, under App Store, in app store connect, then at the top of the page there's a blue notification that indicates and confirms that in order to submit a new-build you must remove the version from review and gives you a link to click to do that.
Once you do, you can scroll down to builds and click the minus button on your build to remove it and then add a new one.
You just need to change the build number (from 1 to 2 for example) in the application info page (inside Xcode). The build number is enough (do not change the version ... I mean leave x.y as it was before). The build number would be enough to have a new entry in the list of builds in iTunes Connect. If you have already submitted the app, you have a button to cancel the review (if it's is not completed yet). Then resend the app for review (choosing by the list of available builds) and that's it.
