I guess it's from Xcode 7, when I add a UDID to the device list it doesn't seems to be linked to the provisioning profile used by Xcode to build.
Since they have changed the way of refreshing the profiles, even redownloading the profiles doesn't seem to update the local profile, or the devices are not added by itunes connect to the profile before sending it to Xcode, I don't know...
Anyone has this problem?
I recently had to add a new device to a provisioning profile on the apple developer center, and I remember it not working immediately, but it fixed itself after a while.
Maybe try to delete the provisioning profiles, then remove the apple id account from xcode and log back in? That may trigger an update.

I have new devices and added the UDID to my developer account.
After that, all my provisioning is automatically handle by Xcode. However, I found that the new devices cannot use my newly compiled apps. It seems that the UDID is not in the corresponding provisioning profile. However, as it is manage by Xcode, i do not know where can I update it. And the Xcode used provisioning file name also cannot be seen in my account. What can be go wrong here? thanks.
You could go to https://developer.apple.com/membercenter, select your team on the top right, and then Certifcates, Identifiers & Profiles. First, add your new device under Devices and then add that device under Provisioning Profiles —> All. Does it solve your problem?
I am just want to know if my provisioning profiles from developer account deleted then app will work or not.
You don't need to worry. Even if provisioning profiles are deleted , your live app will work.
However you will not be able to run the app in XCode using the old (deleted) provisioning profile, as It will show a code signing error I think.
I recently decided to add Push Notifications to my iOS App. I had to create new certificates, then I realised the devices included in the Apple Developer Website weren't up to date. So I had to add my new device with the correct UDID. That's where the issues started. I can't exactly explain all the steps I've taken because I've been constantly deleting and adding new Provisioning Profiles today. Here is the status now:
I have a iOS Team Provisioning Profile, in iOS Development, Managed by xCode, for my app.
Then, I created my own iOS Production App Store Provisioning Profile, but it always indicates that there are "0 devices" linked to the profile. Impossible to add a device. This obviously creates issues in xCode, because whenever I try to generate new archives, or builds, I'll get issues that my device is not included in the provisioning file.
I've tried deleting them all and recreating them multiple times to no avail.
Whenever I let xCode try to fix the issue, it ends up with the Provisioning Profile in Build Settings being switched to Automatic, and the Code Signing Identities ALL switch to "iOS Developer". But that obviously fails when I try to build a Release build of my app.
From scratch, what are the steps to generate a valid iOS Distribution Profile for my app, that includes my device, and that I can use for Push Notifications?
EDIT: I now understand that I can't add a Device to a Distribution Profile and that this is not necessary. Thanks a lot. Still, I get the following message whenever I try to build on my device:
Your build settings specify a provisioning profile with the UUID “...”, however, no such provisioning profile was found.
Xcode can attempt to fix this issue. This will reset your code signing and provisioning settings to recommended values and resolve issues with signing identities and provisioning profiles.
ANd when I click on fix, it switches back to everything I explained above.
I have created a totally new TestFlight account, when I add the build to the account I see 79 users under TestFlight Users In The Provisioning Profile. The problem is that I have built the application using an ADHoc provisioning profile that contains just 3 devices, so why I'm seeing the full list of devices that I've registered with the Apple Developer Portal and not just the device that are available in the Provisioning profile (as stated by the sentence TestFlight Users In The Provisioning Profile) ?
I occasionally run into this problem and get it working again after trying a few things.
Restart Xcode. (It's amazing how often that solves the problem.)
Make sure that you are bundling the correct provisioning profile with the app when archiving and exporting. If you're using Xcode 6, the process has been changed a bit and you might be including the wrong profile. (Look in your Build Settings and then also look at the details on each screen as you are exporting the archive.)
Try re-generating your provisioning profile.
Make sure you have refreshed your account in Xcode so that it has the latest provisioning profile.
If those don't work, try creating a new signing certificate and generating your profile with that.
Then refresh your account in Xcode again.
If that's still not working, try removing your account from Xcode completely, restarting Xcode, and adding your account again.
Those are some of the tricks I use to get things working again. Maybe there is a more definitive answer out there.
I have also face the same problem.
This is because the provisioning profile you create from apple developer account.
Have that 79 devices register with that apple developer account.
Please check that account once.
I'm sick to my back teeth with this whole provisioning business.
After Xcode (4.4.1) got into a state where it would crash on launch I re-installed it. But now after doing so I'm no longer able to run on hardware as I get a Provisioning Profile can't be found error.
But I don't know what profile its talking about as the id number given in Xcode doesn't mean anything to me. It says
Provisioning profile '27F6BCB8-4876-4408-AA16-D749F5B62C2A' can't be found
After struggling pointlessly for a while, I've deleted all the profiles from the device and from Xcode and then refreshed them within Xcode and copied them to the device. I have 4 profiles in Xcode, all showing as Valid, they are:
AdHoc Distribution Profile
Apple Push Profile
Project Specific Development Profile
iOS Team Provisioning Profile
In the provisioning portal Provisioning section there are:
- Apple Push Profile
- Project Specific Development Profile
- iOS Team Provisioning Profile
All 3 of which are showing as being in my Development Certificate profile list.
If I examine any of the profiles in the portal, nowhere can I see any sort of identifier which is of the form ''27F6BCB8-4876-4408-AA16-D749F5B62C2A', so how does one find out which profile Xcode thinks is missing?
If this isn't co-incidental, a few hours ago I added some new device ids to the portal and to the profiles. But I was still able to build/run after doing this and updating/refreshing the profiles. It was only after I had to reinstall Xcode that the problem started.
Right now I'm so fed up, as this isn't the first time I, and I expect countless other's encounter these sorts of problems. But as I don't know what profile Xcode thinks is missing, and things look alright I don't know what else to try to try and sort things out.
Cheers if you can help.
You can change what profile the app is being code signed against. It is probably set to an old profile that no longer exists. This is done in the targets build settings.
