On the iPhone Provisioning Portal, the team provisioning profiles with the specific ID is invalid.
As I did some research on net and it said I should click on the Xcode preference, then click the view details about the account, and then click the refresh button on the bottom right corner but I could not find it.
First thing is that you can create,edit or delete provisioning profile (developer,distribution) or certificates which wont effect the apps already live (on app-store). But it will effect the apps that you are using in your current project for testing in Device.
You can Delete all provisioning profiles and certificates. But you have to create again for testing your app in to device as well as upload new app on app-store from iTunes connect.
Apple provide Very nice and clear documentation please read bellow link for more clear
Provisioning and Development
Push Notification
The push certificate cannot be renewed. You have to create a new one.
The push notification certificate is not part of the application build. Therefore for push to continue working you only have to create a new certificate and deploy the p12 file (or whatever other format you are using) at your server. You don't have to submit a new version of your app.
Regarding refreshing the accounts and provisioning profiles, check here and here.

I'd like to test my push notifications feature on iOS. I'm working with DevExtreme, a framework based on phonegap.
Following what I made in the past, I made the following steps:
Create the certificate. Here, I chose the "Apple Push Notification service SSL (Sandbox)" option. First question: is it right? I will use FCM.
Create the APP id, enabling push notifications
I need to create a template of my app, so, I need also the Provisioning Profiles. I try to create it selecting "iOS App Development" when creating it. Then, I can't see the created certficate.
What I tried to fix the point 3 is create another certficate selecting "iOS App Development" using the same certSigningRequest as point 1. I created a provisioning profile lined to this certificate. When building the template, I tried to use this file as provisioning and the certificate of point 1 as certificate, but I'm getting the error "The default keychain doesn't have an identity matching".
So, now I'm stuck here, because I don't know how can I test my push notifications feature on an iPhone device. Any ideas?
UPDATE:
Now,I'm trying to do the following: create the APN certificate and use it only for the upload to FCM. Then, create the certificate and profile for the as usual, selecting "iOS App Development" when creating the certificate and link it to provisioning profile.
Is my idea right?
UPDATE: Summarized all the steps here: https://programmingistheway.wordpress.com/2017/07/19/devextremephonegap-how-to-manage-push-notifications-with-fcm/
It’s because you are mixing up the 'Distribution Provisoning Profile' with the 'Development Provisioning Profile'.
Remove old provisioning profiles from your keychain and follow these steps.
I have been added to the company account as an App Manager user.
After that I created a new bundle ID and enabled Push Notifications. Push Notifications are not in the code now, but we may use them later.
The next step was creating an app on iTunes and using this bundle ID.
After that I chose my name as the provisioning profile in XCode, crated archive and started uploading process. I was offered to choose a profile and I picked profile with my name.
Should I be seeing my name here (like Jim Doe) or I should see and pick a profile looking like My Client Company Team?
The upload breaks with error
ERROR ITMS-90159: "Invalid provisioning profile. This app contains an embedded provisioning profile that is not associated with your account. Please use a provisioning profile associated with Team ID XXX."
There is a change that I wrongly navigated my client to add me to his profile. If I skipped some step please let me know.
I am posting an answer for all those that have the same issue.
Apple completely separates Apple Developer portal from iTunesConnect. A client must invite you to both Apple Developer and iTunesConnect!
iTunesConnect will allow you to create apps and sort all details that will appear on the App Store. While Apple Developer is bound to development and XCode looks at its permissions when you try to pull team provisioning profiles.
In my case, once I have been added to client's Apple Developer, I was able to see his team and push build to iTunesConnect.
I've just finished my app, and so I am now getting ready to submit. But I need to change my developer Push certificate to Ad Hoc to test it with a Production Push certificate.
I thought I had it all figured out, but when I build the app, I get the error:
"Failed to get the task for process 2023" (The number changes every time I build.)
I have created my provisioning profile, and I am able to navigate to my Project's Build Settings and set the app to use my Ad Hoc profile. However, when I attempt to set my Code Signing Identity to "Apple Production Services..." all I see is my Distribution Certificate, not the Push Certificate.
What is going wrong?
I found the problem. I actually did have everything done correctly the first time. I just didn't know that I couldn't build on my phone through Xcode using an Ad Hoc provisioning profile.
So I ended up testing it by downloading the Beta via iTunes.
First of all, when you transfer all the Development Certificates to the Production you cant build the project from Xcode.
No one see push certificate in code signing identity.
You only see Either Development certificate or Distribution certificate depending upon the provision profile you have selected. You don't have to worry to choose Push notification certificate in Xcode, coz its managed by Apple once you enabled the push Notification service to the app by enabling it with unique bundle identifier in developer account. https://developer.apple.com (Only you have to give the merged version of that APNS certificate and distribution certificate in .pem format to web developer )
For Adhoc You have to generate Ipa of your project form xcode and install in you mobile through external link like http://www.diawi.com, if you import Ipa into your device from iTunes remote push notification will not arrive.
This is my first time trying to upload app to app store, so I am completely lost. I have searched all over the web about the issue I am having, but could not find how to fix the issue.
Here is the problem:
I have developed an updated version for the existing iPhone app for client. Original version of app is already in app store for long time. Client wants me to upload new version of the app to their account in app store as "prerelease" for testing. They gave me their store account (admin role) username and password to log in. I added the account in Xcode and configured build settings to their team. But, after building the archive, when I click the "Validate" button and select their team, I am getting an error popup with the message "Your account already has a valid iOS Distribution certificate". I can't post images here, so here is snapshot image of the popup):

Apple troubleshooting documentation (documentation link here) shows that they should export developer profile and give me to import on my Mac. However, client say they don't have Mac and no Xcode, so they can't do it themselves. Apple documentation is mentioning another option - “Revoke and Request”, but I can't see that option. Also, if "revoke" is performed, will that affect client's application (more than 20 apps in app store)?
I have downloaded all of their certificates and profiles from Member center, imported to keychain, added account to Xcode, configured Xcode, but nothing helped.
Does anyone know what can I do, or ask to client, so that I can upload app to their app store account?
Thank you!
You must have downloaded the Distribution certificate from the account. That alone is not sufficient. You must get the private key from the client or developer who has created the certificate first or uploaded the application.
Log in to developer.apple.com portal, using the required credentials.
Click on "Manage your certificates, App IDs, devices, and provisioning profiles." under Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles
Then click on "Certificates"
On the new page Click on "+" button at right upper corner.
Now on this page select "App Store and Ad Hoc" under Production.
Then follow the instructions related to CSR file given on new page.
Note: Create new certificates with unique names so that you won't download old certificates to your mac, mistakenly.

I'm trying to use the new Automatic Configuration in Xcode 5 and it seems that when I run builds on my iPhone it is downloading the wildcard provisioning profile and using that to run the app. This is no good because my app uses push notifications and the wildcard will not have the correct entitlements to register for push notifications.
Is there a way to specify to use the provisioning profile for the qualified app id so I can test push notifications?
Strategies I have considered:
Delete wildcard app id - You cannot do this
Delete wildcard provisioning profile - Xcode will recreate the wildcard provisioning profile
Specify the provisioning profile explicitly in the target's build settings
I don't know how to determine the explicit name with Xcode 5. I could download and open the profile in a text editor, but that can't possibly be the right way to do this
If I specify the provisioning profile, I will need to update it every time a new profile is generated (add a new device, profile expires, signing certificate expires). This defeats the purpose of automatic configuration.
I've poked around Xcode looking for such a setting and haven't seen anything useful
I have followed the steps here (for configuring Push Notifications) and when I refresh my provisioning profiles they are not updated.
Any ideas?
Xcode was not downloading the provisioning profiles because it did not find any app id MATCHES. It did not find any matches because the capabilities in the "Certificates, Identifiers, Devices" website did not match the capabilities listed in the project in Xcode. Because the app identifier has In-App Purchase and Game Center enabled on the website but once I enabled it in the project it automatically downloaded the relevant provisioning profiles.
Hope this helps someone else.
