One of my app is uploaded on mobile store, then after some months I have add new build but did not submit that build for review.
Now I updated my app with new designs and lots of changes. and I wanted to upload this new version on store. But I don’t know how to add app.
Because when I click on iTunes Connect --> My Apps --> App Store --> + VERSION OR PLATFORM, it shows only tvOS and iOS is disabled.
So now, how can I remove app from Waiting for Upload and how can I add new build ?
Here is screen shot :
I have read all documents provided by Apple Inc., but I didn’t found any option….related my scenario.

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.

I have uploaded an app to apple app store, its status shows Ready for sale, and I can view it from itunes connect with View on App store, but when I search for it, I can't find it.
It should available for all territories, so any account from any country should be fine.
Also, when I viewed it through iTunes, I purchased it, and on my iPhone it appears on my Purchases list, when I click to show app info it keeps loading forever.
what is going on?
You can try a simple trick - go back to app description, make a simple edition and save. I tried it after waiting more than 24 hours and in AppStore there was still available the old version of my app. After that, the new app's version became visible within an hour.
Check build version for your app and testing device. If app version is higher, than test device, it may be not visible on AppStore
I have the same issue I upload the new version of the app with the help of iTunesConnect but the app store does not show my new version.
when I upload the app into iTunes I upload the app version 1.06 but due to some error upload is invalid so again I fix the minor error and upload again but this time but not opening again the version (i have already open iTunes so I just upload the new build but not create the new version into iTunes.)
so I click the new version again on the iTunes connect account and set also the same version 1.0.7 and set the same version on the app and change the build number and upload again from Xcode into iTunes and then save and click to submit the after one-day reviewing time my new version uploaded on the app store.
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.
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.
I'm publishing my first Xamarin.iOS app to the store. I've set up my distribution profiles, set up the app on iTunes connect, and all seems well. I published my app for archiving and then successfully uploaded via the Application Loader.
What's broke is that iTunes Connect doesn't see my app - it says I still need to upload via Xcode or Application Loader... but when I try to upload my IPA (again) via the Application loader ("sign and distribute" via Xamarin), I get the error "ERROR ITMS-4238: "Redundant Binary Upload. There already exists a binary upload with build version '1.0' for train '1.0'" at SoftwareAssets/PreReleaseSoftwareAsset."
I don't see an option in ITunesConnect to delete this build and start over with another version, and it won't let me Submit for Review because it doesn't see the build as being uploaded.
I've opened a ticket with Apple over a week ago and haven't heard back. I know I could go with a different AppId but for all I know I'll hit the same wall. Anybody been down this road?
UPDATE #1
I've created version 1.1 of my app and uploaded it successfully to ITC. I see it in the Builds section (still don't see 1.0) but I can't add a new version of the app to "link" this build to because v1.0 is still "Preparing to Submit"
Apps - unable to create v1.1 while v1.0 is "Preparing to Submit."
Builds - v1.0 is not visible, but if I try to reupload ITC says it's there
UPDATE #2
I was able to link v1.0 of my app store submission to v1.1 build and submit the app for review. I don't know if this will go through or not, but it was at least submitted. I am now also able to "reject" this version, but if I do this I'm unable to add another version still (if I wanted to get a clean v1.1).
Each build you upload must have a unique build number. So if you upload 1.0 then the next must be 1.1 etc. What I do is keep the internal test builds with an extra .1 at the end so my internal would be 1.1.1, 1.1.2 etc and then I'll push 1.2 to the store when ready. You can also change the version number on your App's settings on iTunes Connect. They wont reject it as it's just the build number.
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.
