today I finally got my Company-Developer-Account. I'm working on an App, first on my private Account and today I wanted to move the App to the company account. So I created a new Bundle-Identifier on developer.apple.com and changed the Bundle-Identifier also in my Xcode-Project. Furthermore, I've added the Account to Xcode, changed Signing to my new Company Account and let Xcode fix the Provisioning-File-Troubles. (In Xcode I see two Team-Members from one Account, one is Agent, the other User. Maybe it's important that I've choose the Agent-Team-Member. Unfortunately I can't change because then I get the error "change to a unique bundle-id, because the bundle-id is already on the Agent-Team?^^) Running with the Simulator works fine, but when I want to test on my Phone I get the following Error: The entitlements specified in your application’s Code Signing Entitlements file are invalid, not permitted, or do not match those specified in your provisioning profile. (0xE8008016).
If I press the I next to the provisioning file, I see the following Entitlements:
And under Entitlements I've just the Push-Notifications enabled. But this was like this before changing Bundle Identifier
I had this same problem and none of the solutions I found on stack overflow, or github worked for me.
Here's my solution:
Select your project in the Project navigator
Select the "General" tab.
To the left of the "General" tab, select your target to the left; (this should show a dropdown with a list of targets)
Below your current target you should see an item {your project}Tests; select that.
Check the signing properties in the general tab and make sure they are valid.
This was the problem for me. Hope it helps.
Xcode 9 GM.
Error appears if manual signing turned on.
Turn on automatic code signing.
Turn off automatic code signing.
You need to go through all the details where your provisional profile and certificate getting set from the main page.
E.g. In all targets - > Build settings -> Code signing identity and provisinign profile and set your correct profiles every where in the application.
sometimes when you are selecting manual codesigning then it is not reflecting correcly in all places.
Try to uninstall your application from your device and then run your app on Xcode , i think that current app that was on your device signed with old account so you cannot run your new app that was assigned with new account , hope to help .
For me, I ended up getting this error when I did not have the private key associated with the certificate that was being used to sign the app. Make sure you open Keychain Access and verify that you have a private key for the certificate that is associated with your provisioning profile.
Xcode 8 shows error that provisioning profile doesn't include signing certificate.
This issue is with Xcode-8 only with Xcode 7, same provisioning profile showing related identified certificate.
There are many ways to fix this, like enabling automatic signing etc. But if you want to understand the reason for this error you need to look at the error message.
It says that the provisioning profile you have selected in the "General tab", does not contain the signing certificate you selected in the "Build settings" -> "Code Signing Identity".
Usually this happens if a distribution certificate has been selected for the debug identity under "Build settings" -> "Code Signing Identity".
If this happens under "Signing (Debug)" it might also be that the "Signing Identity" -> "iOS Development" is not included in the provisioning profile.
Check your keychain for identities that are missing a private key. I had multiple distribution certificates installed for the same team, one of which was missing the private key. Xcode was only checking the first matching identity in the keychain and automatically using this as opposed to the one that did include the private key.
Removing the matching identity that didn't have a private key made Xcode detect the correct identity again.
To fix this,
I just enable the "Automatic manage signing" at project settings general tab, Before enabling that i was afraid that it may have some side effects but once i enable that works for me.
For those who should keep using not auotamatic for some reason
Open keyChain Access to see whether there are two same Certifications ,If there's two or more,Just Delete to one and it will work :)
I experienced this issue after recently updating Xcode to version 9.3
The issue was in code signing (under debug) certificate was set to distribution certificate instead of development certificate so this prevented me from installing the app on my devices.
Here is what I did to solve this issue.
Project -> Targets -> Select your app -> Build Settings -> Code Signing Identity -> Debug -> Double tap "iPhone Distribution" and change it to "iPhone Developer".
I unchecked and then checked the "Automatically manage signing" option. That fixed it for me.
For what it's worth automatic signing failed every time until I just manually deleted local profiles in:
~/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles
After that automatic signing worked perfectly and it got the right profiles from Apple's servers.
This was affecting only some builds, notably the ones for which I had manually created profiles for watch app.
If you use manual signing (which I would definitely encourage), this error may occur because Xcode thinks that it should sign a release build with a developer certificate, which is obviously not included in a release provisioning profile.
There is a build setting that defines which certificate should be used for which build configuration. To change it, go to build settings and search for Code Signing Identity. When expanded, there should be separate rows for each build configuration (usually Debug and Release) with in the second column its selected identity (usually iOS Developer or iOS Distribution). Make sure that it's set to the correct identity for each build configuration.
In some cases, the build configurations can also be expanded. Make sure that also its subitems are set to the correct identities.
Had the same error.
Profiles seems renewed, new certificates added, i even checked it when download. Also revoked former developer's certificates, excluded from provision profile.
But Xcode still asking me about previous certificates with error:
No certificate for team 'MY_TEAM' matching 'iPhone Developer: FORMER_DEVELOPER' found
so, what I did to fix it:
Go Build Settings -> Signing -> Code Signing Identity
Find all 'FORMER_DEVELOPER' certificates and choose needed.
Hope it will help somebody.
For those who still struggle with this problem in Xcode8. For me was a duplicate Certificate problem, this is how I solved it:
I read the answer of Nick and then I began my investigation. I checked all the keys and Certificates in my particular case (inside ~/Library/Keychains/System.keychain).
When I opened the file, I found that I had two iPhone Distribution Certificates (that was the certificate that Xcode was requesting me), one with the iOS Distribution private key that I have been using since the beginning, and another iPhone Distribution Certificate which its private Key had a name (iOS Distribution:NAME) that wasn´t familiar for me. I deleted this last certificate, started Xcode again and the problem was gone. xCode wasn´t able to resolve that conflict and that´s why it was giving signing certificate error all the time.
Check your keychains, maybe you have a duplicate certificate.
You may also solve code signing issues with great Fastlane toolkit. Authors put a lot of effort to effectively automate building, signing iOS apps (and more).
So in the mentioned suite, there is tool sigh which magically resolves any signing issues, hence the name :) Nice thing here is, that this tool encapsulates a knowledge about common signing issues and can detect and resolve most of them.
Fastlane is installed as Ruby gem:
gem install fastlane
And then simply invoked:
fastlane sigh --development
Answer two questions, and voila:
[11:56:55]: No existing profiles found, that match the certificates you have installed locally! Creating a new provisioning profile for you
[11:57:01]: Creating new provisioning profile for 'com.myapp' with name 'com.myapp Development'
[11:57:06]: Downloading provisioning profile...
[11:57:09]: Successfully downloaded provisioning profile...
[11:57:09]: Installing provisioning profile...
Finally, go to Build Settings -> Signing, and switch to newly created provisioning profile, whose name you just saw in the command output.
This example is for development code signing problem (running on the device). Check sigh documentation for all other options.
In my case, in keychain i had two certificates with same name, i removed one of the certificate which is duplicate then it solved the problem.
I had remaining private keys from certificates I had revoked, certificates were gone but not the private keys. Deleting them solved the problem.
To find them:
Open Keychain access
Click "Keys" under category on the side left menu
Look for iOS Developer: ..." keys that do not have a certificate tied to them
I deleted them and problem went away
The highlighted key in the picture is a sample private key without a certificate.
"Enable automatic signing" and then selecting a team from the drop-down menu helped me with this exact problem.
Because I haven't seen this specific answer:
My issue was I needed manual signing. So my mistake was that In Build Settings -> Code Signing -> Code Signing Identity
I had my debug (Automatic signing style, and Apple Development Certificate), Staging and Release (Manual and Apple Distribution (adHoc) variants set correctly.
What I DIDNT have set correctly (due to some flawed logic in my understanding) was the "ANY IOS SDK" value. Once I set it to the same manual Apple Distribution cert, the error went away.
Initially i had it set to an Automatic value "iOS Distribution" because I figured it would better handled automatically since I didnt know what it meant. still dont. oh well hope it helps
Delete the developer certificate that does not have a private key.
Delete the provisioning profile from your machine using go to folder (~/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles)
Then first check then uncheck the Automatically manage signing option in the project settings with selecting team.
Sing in Apple developer account and edit the provisioning profile selecting all available developer certificates then download and add to XCODE.
Select the provisioning profile and code signing identity in project build settings
Xcode 11
This is the error I got
Provisioning profile "XXX" doesn't include signing certificate "Apple Development: XXX (XXX)".```
Now Xcode 11 automatically created a certificate "Apple Development: XXX" which is valid for all platforms
You just need to
Go to https://developer.apple.com
Go to your provisioning profile
Check if this certificate is selected
The issue seems to start happening in Xcode 11.
Go to Apple Developer
Find the right provision profile
Press Edit in the right upper corner
Choose the (Distribution) option in Certificates. (I think it's a new option/certificate type that apple introduced though I couldn't find any documentation)
Optional: Delete all you provision profiles in (~/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles/)
go to Xcode ->Preferences->Accounts->Download Manual Profiles
I have the same problem.
I changed the mac. And when I downloaded the Xcode certificate, I received an error message: "The error is that the security profile does not include the certificate signature."
1) Go to https://developer.apple.com/account/ios/profile/limited/edit
Select the project => edit => Certificates => Select All => Create => Download
2) In Xcode: Project file => Signing (Debug) => Provisioning profile => Import profile => Select file with 1
For me, None of the above solutions worked. I was migrating from two older mac's to a new mac, trying to get release/debug profiles working on Xcode WITHOUT Xcode auto managing them.
The solution for me was that when I went and created the two new Certificates, i ALSO had to go into my provisioning profiles, and add (under both the distribution and dev) the new certificates to the provisioning profiles so recognized them. After doing this & downloading, xcode removed all errors and it is good to go.
Hope this helps someone!
I got one of these emails from Apple:
Dear John Doe,
The following certificate has either been revoked by a member of your
development team or has expired:
Certificate: iOS Development
Team Name: Honey Team, LLC
This does not affect apps that you've submitted to the App Store or
your ability to update your apps. If you're using provisioning
profiles that contain this certificate, they must be recreated before
they can be reused. For details, see the "App signing overview"
section of Xcode Help.
Best regards,
Apple Developer Program Support
I created a new certificate which revoked the previous certificate (locally and on any other developer's mac). For it to work I must download the new provision profiles.
The solution is to:
login into Apple developer account
remove/revoke the previous certificates created in my name.
add the new certificate to the provision profile. You can identify the newer one by their expiry date
download them again from Xcode. Xcode >> Account >> Download All Profiles
restart Xcode
I personally didn't have such access. This access was only available to our team's admin, hence I don't have screenshots nor certain if these steps are 100% correct.
I haven't seen this mentioned yet but if you are still having issues after recreating your provisioning profiles, deleting the existing ones you have in your Provision Profiles folder, checking for dupes in your Keychain, etc (all other answers ITT), open your Target > Build Settings > Code Signing and make sure everything looks consistent in there. For example, I had changed the Code Signing Identify for Debug to a Distribution identity, which obviously wouldn't work as the Development Provisioning Profile doesn't have the Distribution certificate and was causing the error in the first place.
If your trying to upload your app to iTunes Connect (your Provisioning Profiles are set to Distribution), Go to Project Settings -> Build Settings -> Code Signing. Make sure to set all of Debug and Release Options to your Distribution Provisioning Provisioning Profile.
This might help you
iOS Distribution profile
Scenario:
Another developer gave me a certificate.
I installed this simply
Error :
Xcode 8 shows error that provisioning profile doesn't include signing certificate
Which was not exactly correct error.
The error was the private key missing
Preference -> Accounts -> Double click team
Call the developer to send the private key.
and installed it into your locally
SECOND SOLUTION
Create a fresh certificate.
Edit your existing provisioning profile
Include fresh certificate
Save and download
It means you need to do either 1 of the below:
You should have created a certificate at the Developer Center and then included that Certificate within the Provisioning Profile which you will Import into XCode.
Else, If you are using a certificate created by someone else, then get them to share/export their certificate & private key (.p12 file) to you & you need to include this into your keychain. Refer here
A solution to #2 when you are not able to get the certificate & .p12 file from the creator would be to just check the 'Automatically manage signing' option.
Here are the steps solved for me (For those who face the same problem in XCode 9.2):
Just manually deleted local profiles in ~/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles.
Deleted and created all the certificates and provisioning profile from developers account.
Removed developers account from Xcode and re-added it.
Solved my problem! :-)
This happens because the provisioning profile can't find the file for the certificate it is linked to.
To fix:
Check which certificate is linked to your provisioning profile by
clicking edit on your provisioning profile in the Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles section of the Apple Developer dashboard
Download the certificate from the dashboard
Double click the file to install it in your keychain
Drag the file into Xcode to be extra sure it is linked
The error should be gone now.
Clicking but then cancelling "Enable Automatic Signing" worked for me, although the actual change it made was:
ALWAYS_EMBED_SWIFT_STANDARD_LIBRARIES = YES;
or in Xcode it's called Always Embed Swift Standard Libraries
I had the same issue and reason was penny. Wrong profile and certificate was selected in build settings. I only had did this before few days. So, you do not need to enable "automatic" inside xcode. Check profiles inside your build settings before doing it.
Try downloading the certificates/profiles directly from the member centre rather than doing it from Xcode.
It worked for me when I manually downloaded them from the member centre.
I'm having trouble with the process. I have got push notifications working for Development. I have read multiple guides and questions, and for some reason - either their guides are deprecated in iOS 8 or my Xcode is bugged - I am having issues with provisioning profiles.
For the purposes of this question, I have generalized most of the terms for privacy concerns.
I'm currently greeted with the bug - Failed to code sign "App". There is a Fix Issue button, but I made sure I did not click that; I'm afraid it'll only complicate my problems.
I've followed the Parse iOS Notifications Guide and configured my app according to the guide. I've done the following:
Requested a certificateSigningRequest from Keychain Access
Created a new App ID in iTunes Connect, with a new bundle identifier. I made sure I went into my info.plist in my app to change and match the new App ID created in iTunes Connect.
Using the new App ID in iTunes Connect, I created the Production SSL Certificate.
Installed it to my KeyChain Access, and exported it to upload to Parse.
Next, I deal with the Provision profile. Once again, I went in iTunes Connect, created a new provisioning profile, made sure to link the correct bundle ID with it, and downloaded it.
Here comes the part that may have fudged up the process. In the Parse Notifications Guide, they instructed users to double click the downloaded file - in my case, it was called "AdHocDistribution.mobileprovisioning", which will install itself into Xcode.
Download the generated provisioning profile from the next screen by selecting the "Download" button.
Install the profile by double-clicking on the downloaded file.
This should open Xcode's Organizer in the Devices pane. Your new provisioning profile should appear in the Provisioning Profiles section of your Library. Make sure that the status for this profile is "Valid profile". If the profile is invalid, make sure that your developer certificate is installed in your Keychain.
Double clicking the mobileprovisioning file did not lead to any discernable feedback telling me that it was installed.
Finally, I modified the code signing fields in my project and target's build settings to match the one I downloaded.
Finally, I try running the app, and the error popped up. Please help!
Create a provisioning profile of the application using ADHOC from dev account.Download and control drag it to Xcode, Under provisioning profile in your screenshot select that.
Do the same for Target and project and you will be good to go!
P.S. also select the Team as your dev account
Please follow the following steps..
Check all your targets's Code signing Section. Like Project and Test Target.
Check the project "identifier" in all your .Plist file.
Add the account in Xcode Account section, by choose from :
XCode-> Preference - > Account -> click on +sign and add your apple developer account.
Hope it will help you.
I'm trying to submit my iOS app in Xcode6. When I click Submit or Validate in the organizer, a window pops up that 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:
No matching provisioning profiles found for "Applications/MyApp.app”
None of the valid provisioning profiles allowed the specified
entitlements: application-identifier, beta-reports-active,
keychain-access-groups.
I have created a distribution provisioning profile for this app in the member center and it appears in Xcode.
I've looked around and have not found anything online that has told me how to fix this. Can anyone help? Thanks.

There's a couple possibilities for your issue, but the main causes is what I got from experience as well as other SO answers.
Your certificate or profile is outdated, in which case you have to go and regenerate your profiles again. I had this problem before, but Apple has described (partially) this issue.
You haven't set your profile in the Build Settings/Code Signing area, along with the appropriate certificates. Verify your Team in General/Identity and ensure that your profile is properly set.
From Xcode 5: Code signing entitlement errors (The image is a bit outdated, but its the same as Xcode 6):
You are using a beta version of Xcode.
#jaytrixz states: "I just removed Entitlements.plist in Code Signing Entitlements under Build Settings" which could possibly work. Be sure that your provisioning profiles are configured as well.
As jaytrixz, wrote in the comments...
"I just removed Entitlements.plist in Code Signing Entitlements under Build Settings "
I did the same and it worked after an hour of trying other things!
There are a lot of answers here, some have worked for me in the past, but not this time. I'd even created a new provisioning profile but that still did not help.
Based on the "None of the valid provisioning profiles allowed the specified entitlements" part of the error I tried the following on a hunch and it worked for me:
1. add and remove a particular Capability
Go to Targets > Capabilities, and turn one on and then off.
I doubt it matters which you choose, I added "Push Notifications" (which I don't need for my app), once it was "ON", I changed it back to "OFF"
2. Archive again
I am now successfully uploading my app to the store.
Another solution, that fixed this symptom for me, can be found at: Xcode Watchkit: None of the valid provisioning profiles allowed the specified entitlements: beta-reports-active, com.apple.security.application-groups
Briefly: clear ~/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles
If you are sure you have valid certificate and provisioning profile, then you may need to do the following:
I would suggest people to refresh the link between xCode and developer account by doing the following:
Go to Xcode -> Preferences -> Account -> View details -> (Refresh icon)
Otherwise you may not be able to see the provisioning profile as an option in the build settings (You may only see old profiles)
A lot of times it gives me connection error, you may need to retry.
Do this refresh every time you edit the provisioning profile or certificate online on apple developer member center
If certificates and build setting are all good, and you are part of multiple teams, make sure to select the proper team for the app.
Clean and archive again.
I had another cause for this problem.
I had 3 different Configurations (Debug, AdHoc, AppStore). I accidentally had the AdHoc Configuration selected in the Archive Scheme setting and tried to upload the generated archive to the AppStore.
So setting the Archive configuration to AppStore solved the problem for me.
It's the year 2017, and the provisions are still not just working. I had to put them on manual mode because automatic didn't worked after struggling half an hour. I have no idea what are those entitlements, i have no entitlements file.
After trying every possible fix in the world, I ended up just adding this to the entitlements file:
<key>beta-reports-active</key>
<true/>
Find the right entitlements file by looking in Targets > Build Settings > Code Signing > Code Signing Entitlements.
Maybe it's something to do with this Apple doc, although I couldn't follow the instructions fully as certain things were missing in XCode 7 (e.g. the refresh icon in Preferences > Accounts).
Another possible cause for this message is if you accidentally did remove the 'target inclusion checkbox' for the entitlement file – in that case the error message is slightly misleading...
In my case, the problem was caused by different Bundle Identifier in Target General tab than in Build Setttings.
If you have only development provisionning profile, just create distribution also
I played with fastlane gym, and there it gave some interesting insights:
There was an error exporting your application Unfortunately the new
Xcode export API is unstable and causes problems on some project You
can temporary use the :use_legacy_build_api option to get the build to
work again
This is the according Bug-Report. Seems to be unfixed for month.
https://openradar.appspot.com/radar?id=4952000420642816
Building the app in legacy mode worked for me.
gym --use_legacy_build_api true
Hope, this helps anyone.
In my entitlement file for Health kit there was development key. I removed that and my problem resolved.
I hope this answer could help :)
There seem to be many possible causes of this error.
In my case, my app was an Enterprise release and I was clicking "Validate" when I should have been heading straight to "Export".
I found this in the Apple docs:
Validate or Submit is not intended to be used with Development, Ad Hoc or Enterprise builds. Ad Hoc or Enterprise distributions should skip straight to Export.
Source: https://developer.apple.com/library/content/qa/qa1830/_index.html
I ran into this issue using App Groups. To resolve, I had to log into developer.apple.com and reassign the App Group ID to my App ID.
If other solutions do not work, try going to XCode -> Preferences -> Accounts -> View Details
Now look in Provisioning Profiles section. If your provisioning profile has an action button of 'Download', click the button and download. Then try again
Create a new provisioning profile
This solution worked for me when I had this problem.
Step by step :
log onto the apple developer portal and go here : https://developer.apple.com/account/ios/profile/production
Click the [+] add button and fill in a new profile name and select your app ID
Click the Download button, and once it has downloaded double click to open that file in Xcode
Re-Archive, and this time you should be able to upload succesfully to the store
I am developing an app with iCloud enabled. While uploading the app to apple I got following error:
Invalid Code Signing Entitlements. Your application bundle's
signature contains code signing entitlements that are not supported by iOS.
Specifically, key
`'com.apple.developer.icloud-container-identifiers' in Payload ------- not supported`
While surfing i also got some answer that disable iCloud,but I want to use iCloud feature for my app, so is there any other way to overcome this problem, please let me know.
Thanks in advance
It seems like your provisioning profile is not configured to allow iCloud entitlements. To do this, log into your dev account at http://developer.apple.com, go to the iOS Dev center, and Click the link on the right for "Certificates, Identifiers, & Profiles" under the iOS Developer Program on the right. Find your app id in the Identifiers section, and click the edit button. From there, make sure iCloud is enabled for both development and distribution.
Also, make sure your app id prefix is not using wildcards. You will not be able to use a wildcard prefix (com.example.*) when using any of the special entitlements, like iCloud, Push Notifications, etc. Once you are sure that is set up with iCloud enabled, you will need to regenerate your provisioning profile.
Click the Provisioning Profiles on the left, and find you app store provisioning profile. Click the Edit button on the profile, select the app ID that now has iCloud enabled, and click the "Generate" button to generate a new provisioning profile. Then download the provisioning profile and install it over top of the old profile. Then re-build and sign the app and try re-submitting.
Another solution relevant to people re-signing their app:
If you have iCloud features enabled the provisioning profile will contain keys like com.apple.developer.icloud-container-identifiers. If you don't filter these keys out before you pass them to codesign they will end up inside the binary, which causes this error.
