enter image description hereI am trying to submit my updated version of app to app store in my machine.
While exporting I am getting the error "Your account already has a valid iOS distribution certificate”.
Previously it was done by another person in one another machine, but i am not having the old certificate and provisioning profile.
I created the certificate and provisioning profiles, so all my code signing identities are on my machine. I'm able to run the app in device with the same certificate, I can create ipa in my machine and install the ipa in iPad its working fine, but unable to submit to app store.
I am using Xcode 6.3.2, Please anyone guide me on this.
Sounds like you may have created an additional distribution certificate. Login to your developer account manually and check this. If you do have two, then delete the older one (which I will assume was created by the previous developer).

Basically, I want to do exactly what is already stated in this question – just in XCode 7.2.
The setup: I am developing an iOS app (using Ionic) for a client and they want to publish it to app store in their name under their account. They however don't want to give me their account login and details. I have received a distribution certificate and a provisioning profile in stead.
I have installed the .p12 distribution certificate and have received a .mobileprovision profile for App Store Distribution using this certificate. I am however completely unable to select this provisioning profile anywhere.
My only choice in the export of the archive happens when XCode asks me which developer account I want to archive with. And here I can only choose my own account (of course). That's obviously not what I want though.
"Once" (in XCode 5, according the linked question) I should have been able to select the external provisioning profile under "Code Signing", but this doesn't seem to exist anymore.
Can this be done without getting their account details? I know that I don't need to know their password, they can just export it to me. Right?
I don't think you can do exactly what you are saying without code signing it with their account (which you don't have access to). I see two possible solutions for you to achieve your goal:
Send them the Xcode project and explain to them how to sign in to Xcode, archive the app and send it up to the store
Upload the app to your personal store account and then transfer it to their account. See this link for details on how to do that: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/LanguagesUtilities/Conceptual/iTunesConnect_Guide/Chapters/TransferringAndDeletingApps.html
I'm trying to submit an app but I'm stuck. I can't get a the iOS Distribution signing identity to show up as valid under my account in Xcode 6.
It always shows up as revoked, never valid. I've made sure to connect it to my provisioning account on the dev site.
I also went to the developer site, revoked it there, recreated it, then went back to xcode to try to submit my app but I get this message:
When I check my account in preferences after getting this message, the iOS distribution doesn't even show up:
And when I try to add one it says:
I've tried:
Deleting the iOS Distribution cert and regenerating it on xcode (generates as revoked)
Deleting it and creating it on developer.apple.com
Linked my provisioning profile to the correct app id
Using Xcode 5 to submit my build instead
I don't know what to import or where to find a developer profile from. I've checked the dev documentation and it says the Your account already has a valid iOS Distribution certificate error happens when switching mac computers, but this is all on the same machine. I am using a VMWare to run this on an virtual image of iOS Mavericks, could that be culprit?
Make sure the time settings on your Mac are correct.
When you use a virtual machine and pause it, it pauses the time on the Mac as well. Your time settings are probably pushed back because of it, making your certificates invalid valid until a time later in the future.
For more info, see: Distribution certificate error:"This certificate is not yet valid."
I have invited one TestFlight user from iTunes to test my app. The app is currently under review status. When that user tried to install the app, at the time of launching in iTunes, it throws the following error :
Could not install XXXX.
The app couldn't be installed because the developer's certificate is no longer valid. To resolve the issue, contact the developer.
Anyone can provide brief explanation what could be the reason for this and how it can be resolved.
I encountered this error because the build was signed using a provisioning profile whose certificate had been revoked.
When i checked in the developer center, the provisioning profile was marked as "Invalid".
I just clicked "Edit", selected the new developer certificate and regenerated the provisioning profile. When the new build was uploaded on testflight signed with the new provisioning profile, the error went away.
However, i do think Apple should be checking if the provisioning profile is still valid rather than developers finding it out after build is already approved by TestFlight and testers complain about this error.
It simply means that the developer account from which this app is uploaded is expired OR the development/distribution certificates of the app are expired or revoked. It can be resolved by activating the certificates of the app on apple's developer portal.
We have uploaded a version to apple-test flight and apple approved app for external testers. Now we're trying to download and is not working, got same message.
But if we run app from dev phone push notification works so P12 still valid. And distributed with old test flight process works.
We're trying to upload another version and see if works.
I try and try again until I read a comment on the apple forum:
This XC profile will be acceptable for upload, but is incompatible with Testflight
When you have to check provisioning profile, be sure any "XC" provisioning profile is selected (you can change it by clicking on the right arrow)

The error CLearly states what is wrong, your Certificate needs to be renewed, as your certificate may have expired or revoked, Try to create the Certificate again along with the provisioning profiles, and it will work fine
I had a slightly different issue which was a bit more puzzling as everything was 'valid'. I encountered the issue when I needed a production push certificate (which I already set 2-3 months before and tested!).
This is what I've done to resolve the issue:
Check xocde - both Code Signing and Provisioning Profile:
I had the correct settings (they matched what I was expecting and what I used for a previous build).
Check my apple developer account - it stated that my 'prod' profile was 'Active'
Check xcode -> prefrences -> provisioning profiles - I found the profile I could see in apple developer. It had the same expiry date too!
Wet back to my Apple Developer account, clicked on the profile, downloaded it and double clicked on it.
That fixed the problem for me.
If you encounter any issues, I suggest you check Parse guide (yes, I know they are shutting down but their doc is very good!). It covers more than just profiles but you can choose the step you are having an issue with.
In my case, I found everything is fine, both provisioning profile and certificates were valid.
What I did wrong is, I upload the build to TestFligth using Transporter app, which usually needs an .ipa for same but choose adHoc type instead of AppStore while exporting the binary in the organiser.
Which somehow allow the build to upload to TestFlight but didn't authorised to install on the user's device.
So make sure you're choosing the right option while exporting the build.
I am developing since 2 years ios Projects few are uploaded to app store.
But today I found new error while uploading app with xcode4.6.2. I have searched a lot.!
Also I realesed 1st version version of product in iTunes.
please help me to sove this problem.
And
I Revoke distributed cert. Delete provision.
create new distributed certificate and using it generate new provision,
I can see that cert in my keychain aceess.
also able to get provision on xcode with labeled Valid Profile.
The app build sucessfull without any error.
But still same error I found while uploading app on to appStore.
Solved issue... I have submitted the app from origin machine where the project was created... I don't know whether it is right ans or not.. But It works for me...
Don't revoke your certificate. generate a new certificate(distributed).
generate a new provisioning profile(distributed) using that certificate.
Remove existing provisioning profile from organiser.
Download and install certificate and provisioning profile again.
Sign your code with new provisioning profile.
Clean and build your project.
Achieve it for app store.
I am a contractor, building an app that will be published by another company. I have been using a Development profile to test with my device, and an Ad-hoc Distribution profile to share the app with a group of testers via TestFlight. This all works fine.
I am having trouble submitting the app to Apple. I tried creating an IPA signed with their App Store profile, but they were unable to submit it with Application Loader (this is their usual work flow). They shared their iTunes Connect admin login with me so I could try submitting it from Xcode.
Both approaches give the same error: Application failed codesign verification. The signature was invalid, contains disallowed entitlements, or it was not signed with an iPhone Distribution Certificate.
What are my options here? I have tried deleting and remaking the App Store profile.
I figured it out with the help of Apple. I just had to revoke my certificate, issue a new certificate signing request, and recreate all my provisioning profiles. I changed my Apple ID's email address recently, so it was probably related to that.
