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 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 am trying to test my app on a new device.
I am trying to automatically manage signing on Xcode and the Provisioning Profile is selected to "Automatic" in Build Settings.
However I am getting the following error:
Anyone know what I might be missing?
I have selected my personal team too, it is just not shown in the screen shot here(redacted)
UPDATE
Few things that might help:
I do not currently have a paid membership(it expired 2 weeks back).
Account settings are correctly configured in Preferences.
I am successfully able to run on another device which I have used in the past with my paid developer account.
If you do not have an active, paid, subscription to the Apple Developer program then you cannot add additional devices to your provisioning profiles.
Any devices that have been previously registered against your membership will continue to work until those provisioning profiles expire.
I've got a Distribution Provisioning Profile I use for distributing my application to QA testers via AdHoc builds / HockeyApp. I'm also part of a team of other developers working on other apps, and they have their own QA teams.
Whenever someone else adds a device to the Apple Developer Member Center (previously the "Provisioning Portal") located at https://developer.apple.com/membercenter/index.action , the Distribution Provisioning Profile becomes Invalid.
To make the profile valid again, I must open up the profile and include all of the newly added devices in the profile, then re-download it.
This is all fine, but it seems unnecessary. My Distribution Provisioning Profile should only need the devices of my app's testers linked to it, not the devices others have added for their own testing purposes.
Does anyone have any information / links to documentation on why this happens (searches only seem to bring up the common issues with provisioning profiles in general that people always run into when starting out), and whether or not there is a way to get around it?
Thanks,

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.
I'm confused as to how to add a provisioning profile to a new device. So I'm using Xcode 4.3.2, and TestFlight. I was given a pre-existing project and a team license via the company I'm helping out. The provisioning profile on developer.apple.com had certain devices already set up. So I added all these devices as testers to TestFlight, sent out an archived build, no problems, worked fine.
Now, one of the testers wants to try out testing on an iPad. So, I sent them an invite via TestFlight, and their device automatically registered on TestFlight. I see their UDID, and device, etc. However, their device is listed under "Teammates Devices Not On This Profile". So, I followed the prompts, exported the missing UDID to a file, and uploaded the file to the Provisioning Portal. I see the iPad now under "Devices" in the Provisioning Portal, however it is listed with 0 profiles associated. How to I associate the provisioning portal of this app with the iPad? Is there some simple step I'm missing? Keep in mind this iPad is in a foreign location, so I have no control over it. I need to tell them what they need to do (or automate it myself). Please help!
You need to add the device to the provisioning profile. Then, build the project again using the updated provisioning profile. And upload that build to test flight.
Or, I believe TestFlight has a new feature that allows you to simply update the build with the new profile without having to create a new build.
