I am having a fairly annoying problem with my provisioning profile, The app I am working on started off with a name lets call it awesomeapp, so in the provisioning portal at apple I have a ios app identifier with the id "com.mydomain.awesomeapp".
but my apps bundle identifier is called AwesomeApp, and it turns out that the provisioning profile that is used the app identifier I have created is case sensitive. as I get this error
The provisioning profile specified in your build settings (“iOS Team
Provisioning Profile: com.mydomain.awsmomeapp”) has an AppID of
“com.mydomain.awsomeapp” which does not match your bundle identifier
“com.mydomain.AwsomeApp”. Xcode can resolve this issue by
downloading a new provisioning profile from the Member Center.
If I click okay it goes ahead and removes the provisioning profile and uses a wildcard one i set up.. However I dont want to use the wild card provisioning profile.
So, I went back to create a new app identifier and I entered the id to be com.mydomain.AwsomeApp however this prompts an error
An App ID with Identifier 'com.mydomain.AwesomeApp' is not available.
Please enter a different string.
which suggests to me that when you create an app ID it is case Insensitive.. how do I get around this problem?
I think there is no other solution than deleting the app id and recreating it with the proper identifier.
Originally Apple had no options to edit, rename or delete an App-Id at all.
However at some point in 2013 they've added an delete button available in your members
provisioning center -> App-Id -> Edit one specific -> delete
Some users have reported, that the delete button has been disabled again but for me, it is still working:

I have an iOS app with an app group to receive inbound images from other apps. I simply cannot get it to sign. I have gone through signing a bunch so the process is very familiar but I can't even get the group identifier to show up under provisioning in the developer center. Can someone help? Here is the scenario ->
I cannot create a provisioning profile for my app group group.com.xxxxxx.bookapp.
I have made a new app group identifier group.com.xxxxxx.bookapp.
I have added it to my app identifier in com.xxxxxx.bookapp under capabilities in the dev center, and selected group.com.xxxxxx.bookapp and it looks correct.
I have regenerated all my provisioning profiles.
The app will build fine until it gets to the share extension target and it says Provisioning profile "Provisioning Profile Name" has app ID "com.xxxxxx.bookapp", which does not match the bundle ID "com.xxxxxx.bookapp.shareextension".
I cannot generate a provisioning profile for "com.xxxxxx.bookapp.shareextension" because it does not show up in the lists of available id's in the developer portal when I try to create a new profile.
I cannot use wildcard because I have push notifications and the share extension will not allow it anyways
Ok so, it turns out you have to create a whole new app id that goes with your app group, add the same app group to it as your main target, then create a provisioning profile for it like it is its own app. Now I am able to publish like its two completely different apps, which is kinda is, just a bit convoluted and the docs don't really mention this.
I would like to export a new build of my Xcode app to iTunes Connect, but I always get the following error:
Failed to create provisioning profile.
The app ID "[myappid].OneSignalNotificationServiceExtension" cannot be registered to
your development team. Change your bundle identifier to a unique string
to try again.
Provisioning profile failed qualification
Profile doesn't include the selected signing certificate.
I tried the following:
Cleaning the build
Restart xCode
Creating new profiles (distribution/development)
Removing .OneSignalNotificationServiceExtension (gives another error)
I don't want to change the app id since I want to continue on the same app (for my testers).
I had to change my password of my Apple ID due to security issues, but I changed it everywhere they asked for it.
Does anybody know how to fix this?
As oneSignalNotification is an Extension, the App Id of the extension should have main App id as prefix. ie, If your main App id is : com.xx.xxapp, then the app id for your extension should be com.xx.xxapp.someExtention. Also you need to have separate provisioning profile for main App and extension target.
I'm working on an app: com.myco.foo
It uses "Associated Domains"
I can't run the app on a physical iPhone due to this error:
Failed to code sign "my app". None of the valid provisioning profiles allowed the specified entitlements: com.apple.developer.associated-domains.
How do I create a new provisioning profile to sign this?
When I try to create my own by doing the following:
App ID's -> new (https://developer.apple.com/account/ios/identifier/bundle)
id: 'com.myco.foo'
enable associated domains
Provisioning Profiles -> new (https://developer.apple.com/account/ios/profile/)
type: development
select app id created above
select my device
finish creation
download
open (which opens Xcode but Xcode doesn't say anything about the profile that i opened)
I try to run on device, I get the error:
An App ID with Identifier 'com.myco.foo' is not available.
When I change the project app id to com.myco.foo2, I get the original error.
First I would say regenerate all Development (or Distribution if you are trying to archive) provisioning profiles for your application.
Then, add the associated domain capability.
From the Adding Capabilities section of Apple's App Distribution Guide:
To enable associated domains
In the Capabilities pane, if Associated Domains isn’t enabled, click the switch in the Associated Domains section.
Click the Add button (+) at the bottom of the Domains table.
Double-click the placeholder text in the table, and enter the domain name you want to add.
1) First of all make sure you have added your device udid in provisioning profile you are using. If not added, add it from developer.apple.com and download latest provisioning profile, it resolves your issue.
2) If you have not created Development and Distribution code signing certificates on developer.apple.com then ask relevant person for .p12 certificates.
Looks like it needs to be a distribution type profile in order to run on a physical device: when creating the provisioning profile, you have to choose "Distribution: App Store". You don't select any devices during creation.
I'm trying to run an iOS app on my iPhone in xCode. The app is essentially a third party keyboard for iOS, and it was made by a group of friends. They have added me as 'developer' in iTunes connect. When I try to run the app on my iPhone I get the following error:
No provisioning profiles with a valid signing identity (i.e.
certificate and private key pair) matching the bundle identifier
“com.nameofteam.nameofapp.nameofapp-keyboard” were 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.
When I click on 'Fix Issue', it says:
An App ID with Identifier "com.nameofteam.nameofapp.nameofapp-keyboard" is not available. Please enter a different string.
TL;DR Xcode is very particular about the name you give your App ID in the member center. Having the correct bundle identifier is not enough. You must use the specific format shown below for Xcode to "see" your App ID.
#romrom's solution of deleting the App ID and having Xcode create a new one was a clue. Unfortunately it was a nonstarter for me since my App ID was used by a Store app and therefore could not be deleted.
However, I discovered through some experimentation that I could solve the problem by manually editing the exiting App ID. It turns out that Xcode is really picky about the name of the ID, and not just the bundle ID.
For a typical bundle ID such as com.mycompany.appname, the App ID name must be in this format:
XC com mycompany appname
a name in any other format won't be seen by Xcode.
How to check if you're affected / How to Fix
Log in to the Member Center.
Click on "Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles".
One the left-hand navigation bar, click on "App IDs".
Locate the App ID with your bundle identifier.
If that App ID doesn't have the correct name format (as shown above), click on it then click the Edit button.
Change the name and click Done.
Enjoy the reduction in stress and anger.
P.S. There are some related problems if you're using Xcode 7.3 in which it won't automatically create proper distribution profiles for you, even if you fix the name as I mentioned above. The solution is to downgrade to 7.2.1 or 7.3 Beta or use a tool like fastlane/sigh.
Try this,
Add your Apple ID to Accounts preferences in Xcode.
Go to General tab in Project and choose your team name from the Team pop-up menu.
Below the Team pop-up menu, click Fix Issue.
For starters you want to make sure your bundle identifier is exactly the same as the one on iTunes connect otherwise,
since you seem to have the source code it appears the bundle id you are trying to use is already in use, try a different unique identifier.
Also make sure you have your Apple ID connected to Xcode, it can be added in the accounts section of Xcode preferences. You may also need to create a self signing certificate in keychain access.
as stupid as it sounds - make sure your Provisioning Profile is set correctly in the "Build Settings" tab, under "Code Signing" section, and that it matches the Code Signing Identity certificates.
In my case, I had the Ad-Hoc dist & Release provisioning profiles set correctly, but the the DEBUG was set to Automatic.
I am trying to archieve my app for submission however I am running into issues with code signing.
Basically I have a Today Widget extension for my app. I am unsure about what I should be setting the provisioning profile as. I assumed that I would just use the same profile that I have used for my app, however I get this error:
The provisioning profile specified in your build settings (“AppName”) has an AppID of “BundleID” which does not match your bundle identifier “BundleID2”. Xcode can resolve this issue by downloading a new provisioning profile from the Member Center.
I can of course click 'Fix Issue', but does this actually solve the problem? It just changes my distribution settings to 'iOS Developer' and providing profile to 'Automatic'.
I was struggling with the same problem, and resolved it this way:
You need one App ID configured to the provisioning portal (I assume you have your com.apple.yourappname there)
You need to then configure the second App ID for the Today Widget (which should be com.apple.yourappname.something, where something is the name for your widget, like Today)
Then you need to create two App Store Distribution provisioning profiles:
One for the main App
Second one for the widget
Then assign the correct provisioning profiles for each target to the project settings and set to build for Distribution.
My problem was because of i added "arm" in the Excluded architecture section. I revert it and the problem goes away. It is weird.
Try to create a new App Id for your App extension in Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles (https://developer.apple.com/account). Then create a Provisioing profile for the newly created App id.
If the bundle id for your App is com.apple.appname you create an app extensions with the bundle id com.apple.appname.appextensionname. The same id is then used in Xcode for the widget.
