Upload app on iTunes connect - ios

Well I am trying to upload a application on iTunes but I get this error message ""Your account already has a valid iOS Distribution certificate"". As I understand I need to remove the certificate from the App. How can I do that ? if I am wrong, any idea how can i upload my app on iTunes?

I think I understand you're problem. You must be validating instead of submitting. In order to upload your app to iTunes Connect, in organizer, you must "Submit" your archive. This will upload it into iTunes connect.

How can I publish an app to the App Store with my client's developer account?

I am a freelancer. I developed an iOS app for my client. She has an individual developer account, but we want me to upload an app to the App Store Connect because my client is actually not able to handle this, she even has no Mac. What we should do? She needs to share her account with me or what? My client gave me an Admin role in App Store Connect, but I cannot upload the app from Xcode to App Store Connect. We really need help. What should we do? Thank you in advance for your response! This is what I see when trying to upload archive from Xcode: Error in Xcode

Can you use different account from developer's account to submit to app store

I am doing an iOS project for a client and they gave me access to their developer program and iTunes Connect (which actually only have one app in store, the one I'm developing). Unfortunately, because my main account has already been associated to another iTunes Connect, I gave them another account which I created just for using their iTunes Connect. When I tried submitting the app to the store for Beta Testflight, it said that I don't have the rights to do so. So, how do I use a different iTunes Connect to submit to the store? If I can't do that, is there any other way besides making a new Apple account and having to ask the client to invite it again to both the developer's program and iTunes Connect (and also setting it up again from making a certificate, provisioning profiles, etc)?
Thanks in advance.
I ran into the same problem with a project.
It worked when i archived the application and uploaded it to iTunes connect using apple's application loader, you can sign in with the account you want to upload the app to.

App missing from itunes connect

I created an app on itunes connect, and created all the provision profiles for it.
The next day, when I logged into the developer account, it said i had no apps ?
And I have to create things all over again?
How do I get to the details of my app?
iTunes Connect is not where you create provisioning profiles.
Provisioning profiles are created in the Apple developer portal in the iOS Dev Center.
iTunes connect is then where you create actual apps for upload to the App Store. When you first create the app there are a LOT of mandatory fields. Even things like the icons and screenshots of the app are mandatory. If you haven't completed these then the app will not be created no matter how many times you press save.
I imagine that something was probably missing from the information and so it wouldn't let you save the app.
However, if the app was created then you will have received an email telling you that the app was created. Did you get an email?

iOS App publishing to iTunes Connect - No application records were found

I am having trouble publishing my iOS app which is signed with a valid certificate for distribution and using the correct bundle identifier. When attempting to validate the app in Organizer I get the following error message, "No application records were found. Applications must be ready for upload on iTunes Connect before they can be validated or submitted from within Xcode." and also on iTunes Connect the status is "Waiting For Upload". I have been through everything and cannot see anything in the the project build settings that could be causing this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
App Status
Another reason for this problem is if your app has a status of Prepare For Upload rather than Waiting For Upload.
For more info, see this answer on another similar question.
You need to log in to iTunes connect with the same account that you are trying to submit under in order for Apple to see the Application Record you are trying to submit.
changing the app status in iTunesConnect is the key for resolving this error.

Confusion over Validation and Ad-Hoc Distribution of iOS app

I have created my first iOS app for the iPhone, as part of my MSc project
I don't want to upload it to the App Store but rather convert it into a file that the examiners can use to check my app on their own devices.
Therefore I need to save my app for Ad-Hoc deployment
I created an archive of my Xcode project and then followed these steps suggested by Apple
A myProject.ipa file was created on my Hard Drive. Is this enough ?
Is this all I need to send the examiner so that they can install the app in their own iPhone?
because,
I noticed there was also a button called Validate on top of the Distribute button (I only pressed that to create the .ipa file) in the Archive Organizer
So I went back to the Archive Organizer, chose my archive once again and clicked on Validate and I got :
No Application Records were found
Applications must be ready for upload on iTunes Connect before they
can be validated or submitted from within Xcode.
I went to my iTunes Connect account and it is obviously empty, i.e. I haven't submitted any apps to the AppStore.But I want to validate my app nonetheless, before sending it to the examiner to see if it meets all requirements (even if it is now working fine on my own device - just to be sure).
So what does the above message mean? Do I necessarily have to sumbit my app to iTunes connect (i.e. the AppStore) in order for it to be validated?
And also, should an app first be validated in order to run on other devices as part of an Ad-Hoc distribution?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Validation is only for when you are submitting your app to the App Store. The reason you are getting the "No Application Records were found" message is because for submitting to the App Store, you actually have to create an App Submission in iTunes Connect first and get all of the metadata entered.
XCode queries for that record so that it can associate the project you are building.
For Ad-Hoc distribution, you need to make sure that the examiners devices are added in the distribution profile that you used when creating the archive. You can then just give them the .ipa and they can install via iTunes.
