After this mail I have checked BundleID section in developer.apple.com. There push notification is in disabled state.Even after I enabled the push notification checkbox it is in disabled state After pressing done button.Also two certificates are listed there,old one and the one which is recently created.
Then I tried to create a new distribution profile,but the old certificates is not listing there.Only the one certificate which I have recently created is listing there.I got the email from apple after using the profile created with the new certificate.
I don’t know what to do ? in my application push notification is there.I want to work it like as early.Can any one guide me to create the profile without any issues ?

It's Just a warning in case you intended to use push notifications and have forgotten the entitlement, if you do not require push notifications then you can ignore the warning.
If you do want to use push notifications however, you will need to add the relevant sections and permissions to your tiApp.xml file
You may still need to register your intent for notifications as per
this guide
If you are getting such email there might be the reason i listed below:
It might be because App Id you have used for this App in that You have enabled Push Notification.
So what happen with that is if you enable Push notification in App id & it will be not used in the App, They will expect it to be used once you enable.
If such issue i mentioned than you should edit App Id & disable Push notification.
I hope it will guide you.

iOS: Missing Push Notification Entitlement

Apple keeps sending me the same error:
Missing Push Notification Entitlement - Your app appears to include API used to register with the Apple Push Notification service, but the app signature's entitlements do not include the "aps-environment" entitlement.

I've been trying to submit my app to the app store but it keeps getting rejected. I've looked at all the other SO questions/answers but I can't seem to get it to work even though I keep regenerating the provisioning profile. I am not even using push notifications at all.
Not using push:
Generating my profile called Coaster Profile
And using that profile when submitting to the app store:
I even tried adding the DISABLE_PUSH_NOTIFICATIONS variable:
But nothing is working. I never even used push notifications. Please help!! I'm using xcode + objective c

Missing Push Notification Entitlement app signature's entitlements do not include the "aps-environment"

I got a email from itunes connect with the following message:
Missing Push Notification Entitlement - Your app appears to include
API used to register with the Apple Push Notification service, but the
app signature's entitlements do not include the "aps-environment"
entitlement. If your app uses the Apple Push Notification service,

But here is the funny thing I'm not using notifications it all. This what I have tried:
1.-I delete all the provisioning profiles manually and download them using Xcode (didn't work)
2.-I delete all the provisioning profiles manually and download from the apple developer portal (didn't work)
3.- I add it "DISABLE_PUSH_NOTIFICATIONS=1" to build settings (didn't work)
When I try to upload the app to itunes connect using Xcode is showing the provisioning profile XC:* I don't know if this has something to do with the Entitlement missing.
I as I said this app is not using push notifications on any way shape or form.
I'll really appreciate any pointers or work around this issue.
This is a bug from apple validator. Its coming from last 1 week. Read this blog
https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/11704#47536
If your application does not use notification then leave as it is. Apple will approve the app.
Are you using any libraries/frameworks/cocoapods? Maybe you have an analytics module (Crashlytics? Fabric.io?) that is registering your app for push notifications. Remove those and try again.
Do a search on registerUserNotificationSettings and see if anything pops up. If you're calling that API, the compiler is picking this up as a push notification app.

Missing Push Notification Entitlement Warning in email

After uploading the App to AppStore, I am getting the following warning in an email, where as there are no Push Notifications in my App but there are some third party SDKs like Chartboost, Applovin, Revmob, Crashlytics etc. Has someone else also encountered this problem? If so, have you reached to some solution?

It means your provisioning profile does not support apns. create a provisioning profile with push notifications enabled and upload.
Check out for third party frameworks like
airpush
urbanship
etc...
These frameworks can register your app even though you don't register it in app delegate
Make sure push notification is disabled in these frameworks

Apple Push Notifications - App store submission

I am using a third party library which has code for push notifications. But in our code, we don't have anything related to push notifications. So my profile is not enabled with APNS. When I try to push this to iTunes Connect for BETA TESTING, I'm getting below email from Apple. My question now is CAN I SUBMIT MY APP WITH APNS ENABLED even when I am not using push notifications? Will Apple reject my app if I do so?

1) Click on your project in Xcode (near the upper left hand corner of Xcode)
2) then click on Capabilities (near the top in the middle of Xcode)
3) Scroll down to Background Modes and expand to reveal the modes
4) Select Remote Notifications.
Doing this will give you the push entitlement and therefore the app submission should be ok.
Apple won't know you are not actually making use of push notifications, they will just be running a tool which detects you have push notification handling code in the app but don't have the push entitlement. Doing the above 4 steps should add the entitlement.
Hopefully that should be enough, however you may also need to enable push notifications in your provisioning profile. That's easy to do, the best overall guide to push which tells you how to do that is here:
