Before upgrading Xcode to 7.2, I was using Xcode 7.1.1 to build and distribute apps. I have upgraded to Xcode 7.2 and none of my provisioning profiles (matched to that particular app's bundle ID) match my installed certificates that were working in Xcode 7.1.1.
I only get:
Your build settings specify a provisioning profile with the UUID “some_number”, however, no such provisioning profile was found.
I have tried regenerating a .certSigningRequest to generate a new Certificate and Profile and made sure the Team in the General tab of the target is correct. Whenever I select a Provision Profile, all of my Code Signing Identities appear in the Identities in Keychain, but none of them will pair correctly.
It seems setting the Provision Profile to Automatic and the Code Signing Identity to iOS Developer will resolve this error, but the advantage of managing my Provisioning Profiles is gone as I believe Xcode then manages these.
Any thoughts on why setting my Provisioning Profiles and Code Signing Identities to anything but Automatic and iOS Developer produces this error?
I also had some problems after updating Xcode.
I fixed it by opening Xcode Preferences (⌘+,), going to Accounts → View Details. Then select all provisioning profiles and delete them with backspace (note: they can't be removed in Xcode 7.2). Restart Xcode, else the list doesn't seem to update properly.
Now click the Download all button, and you should have all provisioning profiles that you defined in the Member center back in Xcode. Don't worry about the Xcode-generated ones (Prefixed with XC:), Xcode will regenerate them if necessary. Restart Xcode again.
Now go to the Code Signing section in your Build Settings and select the correct profile and cert.
Why this happens at all? No idea... I gave up on understanding Apple's policies regarding app signing.
Try restarting XCode first, before trying these other answers. I was about to follow the advice given in other answers, then noticed multiple people saying that restarting XCode was necessary after all the steps. All I did was restart XCode and it fixed the problem. Who knows if it'll fix the problem for you, but it's worth a shot before trying the other solutions. I'm on XCode 7.2.1.
Keep quitting Xcode until the damn thing works.
I've also the same problem, in Xcode 7.2
It solved by followings steps:-
1) Open Xcode preference,
2) Select the appropriate team,
3) Click the "View Details..".
4) In section "Signing Identities": click on "Reset" for each of them.
5) In section "Provisioning Profiles". Click on "Download All".
6) Click on "Done."
7) Go in Xcode, build settings, select it. In General tab, the issues should get removed.
8) Restart the Xcode.
9) Do the Final build.
That's all.
Download https://developer.apple.com/certificationauthority/AppleWWDRCA.cer and add it to Keychain access > certificates (which expires on 2023)
Also after I did all of suggested steps (btw, for some reasons backspace not remove provision profile) error keeping occurring. Until I finally figured out to Restart Xcode.
Probably, it should be first step when you're dealing with Xcode :)
Using Xcode 7.3, I spent way too much time trying to figure this out -- none of the answers here or elsewhere did the trick -- and ultimately stumbled into a ridiculously easy solution.
In the Xcode preferences team settings, delete all provisioning profiles as mentioned in several other answers. I do this with right click, "Show in Finder," Command+A, delete -- it seems these details have changed over different Xcode versions.
Do not re-download any profiles. Instead, exit your preferences and rebuild your project (I built it for my connected iPhone). A little while into the build sequence there will be an alert informing you no provisioning profiles were found, and it will ask if you want this to be fixed automatically. Choose to fix it automatically.
After Xcode does some stuff, you will magically have a new provisioning profile providing what your app needs. I have since uploaded my app for TestFlight and it works great.
Hope this helps someone.
Check your Keychain - look in Login and System keychains for expired certificates or error messages.
I found certs with "this certificate has an invalid user" error messages, and an expired Apple Worldwide Developer Relations Certificate.
Delete them and install the new AWDRC certificate from https://developer.apple.com/certificationauthority/AppleWWDRCA.cer
Then follow the accepted answer to get Xcode to use the new certificates.
For me I tried following 2 steps which sadly did not work :
deleting all provisional profile from Xcode Preferences Accounts → View Details , downloading freshly all provisional profiles.
Restarting Xcode everytime.
Instead, I tried to solve keychain certificate related another issue given here
This certificate has an invalid issuer Apple Push Services
This certificate has an invalid issuer
In keychain access, go to View -> Show Expired Certificates.
Look for expired certificates in Login and System keychains and an "Apple Worldwide Developer Relations Certification Authority".
Delete all expired certificates.
After deleting expired certificates, visit the following URL and download the new AppleWWDRCA certificate, https://developer.apple.com/certificationauthority/AppleWWDRCA.cer
Double click on the newly downloaded certificate, and install it in your keychain. Can see certificate valid message.
Now go to xcode app. target → Build Setting → Provisioning Profile . Select value from 'automatic' to appropriate Provisioning profile . Bingo!!! profile mismatch issue is solved.
In my case, the problem was that the Archive was being built with a different TEAM-ID than the one who generated the Provisioning Profile (Me). Therefore I Got the error:
"No matching provisioning profile found: Your build settings specify a provisioning profile with the UUID, however, no such provisioning profile was found."
To Solve this:
Clean and Re-Download your Provisioning profiles from Settings
Re-Start Xcode
in the GENERAL Tab of the Project properties, got to TEAM:
Change the current team to the Same team but the one under the ACCOUNT you generated the provisioning profile with.
Clean & Build
Viola!
Hope this helps someone.
I updated to Xcode v7.3.1 and it solved the issue.
With Xcode 7.2.1, if you are certain that your provisioning profile is correct (it has the correct App ID and certificate, and the corresponding certificate exists in your Keychain Access) then set the Code Signing Identity and set the Provisioning Profile to Automatic.
What I did was: created a new provisioning profile and used it. When setup the provisioning profile in the build setting tab, there were the wrong provisioning profile numbers (like "983ff..." as the error message mentioned, that's it!). Corrected to the new provisioning profile, then Xcode 7.2 refreshed itself, and build successfully.
Solutions described here work, but I want to add that you need to have correct target selected on the top left corner of Build Settings in Xcode. Lost some time figuring this out...
You can easily fix the problem by changing bundle identifier on the Apple web page from com.my.app to com.my.app.iOS. I found this solution at https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/15712.
In Xcode 7.3 I got the same error, my certificate and provisional profile both were fine still I was getting the same error, I was unable to delete the provisional profile in Xcode preferences, so I tried by right-clicking on the provisional profile which shows the option to move to trash, but when I clicked nothing happened then I closed the preference window and open it again by Command, the provisional profile was gone and download option was visible, I clicked download and it starting working fine
When distribute to App Store, you choose Product -> Achieve and encounter "code sign error, no matching provisioning profiles found", if account and downloaded .mobileprovision file is ok. Try click the "Build and Run" button to run it on your phone.
And, a dialog box will popup with a button "Fix", just click "Fix" to do next... Last, your device will have an valid provisioning file. Just do "Product -> Achieve" again, everything is OK!
You can also simply go to xcode preferences then accounts and then it may ask you to simply re sign in with your developer profile and then the issues should go away.
Hope this Helps!
For me changing the build configuration from release to Debug solved the issue.
You can find Build Configuration in Edit Scheme -> Run -> Info -> Build Configuration
Clean your project and re run.
In addition to what other users posted, make sure the Team selected on the Target settings (General tab) is the correct one. Xcode will complain it cannot find the Provisioning Profile if the profile belongs to a different team than the one selected.
For me nothing above worked with XCode 7.3.1 because I had nothing in provisioning profiles (expired). I had to connect my iPhone to Mac and then click on Fix provisioning profile which created another profile expires in a week.
For everyone who didn't solve it yet, my Issue was answered by this:

After I have a few hours searching and trying I have two solutions

2- turn off the automatically manage signing, go to https://developer.apple.com/account/resources/profiles/, and create a profile now on the Provisioning Profile import it and done.

I've already tried almost everything I've found on SO but nothing worked for me.
I'm not sure when it started to happen, I think it was just after I tried to add a share extension to my app.
I've re-generated the provisioning profiles after adding the share extension (and enabling the app groups in Target > Capabilities) and have downloaded them via Xcode.
Any ideas on why this could happen ?
So I finally managed to make it work though I'm not exactly sure which of the following had to be done.
I deleted my Apple ID and all the provisioning profiles.
Then I added the same Apple ID and downloaded the provisioning profiles (Xcode > Preferences... > Accounts)
From what I had read on SO it should have worked here, but in my case it wasn't.
So what I did was:
going to Window > Devices
then right click on my device on the left hand corner
and click on Show provisioning profiles...
I then deleted all the provisioning profiles I had on my phone
After doing what I said above it worked.
Hope this can be helpful.
Xcode: Preferences...
Accounts
Select your apple account
Remove that account (-)
Add again your apple account (+)
Restart Xcode
Run yor app!
Another possible cause for this error message is your team not being set. Whenever I start a project, mine defaults to none and this error message always gets me. Once I change the team to one with a valid cert, everything works
I have seen a few other questions that addressed this topic but none like mine. Yesterday I innocently added a device to the list of devices.
Question:
I am under the impression that once you add a device, it will now be linked to the provisioning profile. However, I believe it was not linked to one of my distribution profiles. So I went into edit the profile, clicked the checkmark next to the device, and hit submit. This is where the problems began.
I notice two things: I recently renewed my certificate/provisioning profiles about a week ago. Now, it thinks I renewed my provisioning profile yesterday ( or at least it says so in the organiser ).
Also, when I try to build any project I get the awful "No unexpired provisioning profiles found that contain any of the keychain's signing certificates". In the build settings my signing identity shows up under Identities without provisioning profiles. I have read horror stories of people having to tear everything down and rebuild and I hope I don't have to do that here..
Related question:
Code Sign error: No unexpired provisioning profiles found that contain any of the keychain's signing certificates
iOS distribution is such a pain in the ass! This worked for me (follow the steps in this order):
1) in the xcode organizer:
delete all provisioning profiles
2) in the mac os x keychain:
delete all iOS dev certificates
3) go to developer.apple.com
log in to the member center
revoke all certificates (edit: some redditors pointed out that this isn't a good idea if you're working in a bigger team. If that's the case try just deleting expired ones.)
4) go back to the xcode organizer:
click refresh (bottom right) under the provisioning profiles tab and
login
List item
on the popups click the positive button
5) in your xcode project go to the "build settings" tab
under code signing pick the dev. and distr. identities
if they are not there or not valid go to developer.apple.com and navigate to "provisioning" if they are invalid just click modify and save them again
6) go back to the xcode organizer:
hit refresh again (bottom right)
Today I've installed Xcode 4.3.2, and immediately had the same problem! First trying to archive distribution, and after that In a clean new project, trying to run on a device.
I fixed both problems.
1. For successful distribution I've downloaded and installed my distribution certificate from iOS provisioning portal, after that in Xcode I've setup Code Signing Identity correctly. This solved my problem with archiving.
2. I had the same problem creating new project and trying to run on device. Again in provisioning portal in certificates I've deleted my development cert. Also I deleted all development provision profiles. Also deleted them from organiser. Then I added the device again.
Hope this helps!
For me just hit the "Refresh Button" at the bottom right was the answer !
Hope I can help someone.
I got this error when I the bundle identifier for my app did not match the provisioning profile I was trying to use with it.
I came across this today. It turns out that after I cleaned up my devices list (removed a few I'm no longer doing development for) it made some of my development certificates invalid. I deleted those from the provisioning profiles and regenerated them.
I have Xcode 5.1 and i fixed the issue like this
Xcode -> Preferences -> Accounts -> View details -> Refresh button (Bottom Left)
After it was refreshed i clicked done, and the error was gone :)
I have an application that I am debugging on iPad.
2 days ago I wanted to debug a same updated application but I am having this error.
The identity used to sign the executable is no longer valid.
Please verify that your device’s clock is properly set, and that your

I don't have iPhone Developer certificate yet, but I have debugged this game once.
Neither restarting Xcode nor restarting my Mac helped.
Solution within Xcode:
In Xcode, go to Preferences --> Accounts --> View Details
Press the + symbol and select iOS Development
Press the refresh button in the lower left corner (called Download all in Xcode 7)
PS:
Sometimes it may also help to delete invalid provisioning profiles: right-click -> move to trash
I saw this error exactly one year after signing up as an Apple developer.
Try restarting XCode. It worked for me.
This may happen when your certificate expire in your Key Chain.
EDIT : I'd now recommand cert and sigh to generate your certificates and provisionning profiles. These are two commands part of the fastlane tools from KrauseFx.
Using cert & sigh:
Open a terminal and type cert
Answer the prompted questions to sect your user, password, team, app, etc.
Open a terminal and type sigh
Answer the prompted questions to sect your user, password, team, app, etc.
Select the right profile in Code Signing Identity (iPhone Developer)
Conventional way:
Just go to the new provisioning portal : Certificates, Identifier, Profiles
Login with your developer account.
Go to Certificates and click the Plus button.
Then select iOS Apps Development and click Continue.
Follow the whole process and download the newly generated certificate.
Download it and put it in your keychain.
Update your profiles from XCode Organizer devices window
Select the right profile in Code Signing Identity (iPhone Developer)
If all the above previous suggestions fail after renewing your certificate, as they did for me, browse to the following location;
~/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles
...and delete your provisioning profiles.
Then download your provisioning profile again from;
https://developer.apple.com/account/ios/profile/profileList.action
If you are using jailcoder, make sure you jailbreak your iphone successfully. Don't forget install AppSync for IOS in Cydia.
In the latest update from xcode this problem usually occurs when your certificate has expired and xcode continues to use the old one until it has expired.
Closing xcode and opening it again will fire off an automatic process of downloading your new certificate and getting your app working.
Just close xcode right down (Cmd + Q) then open it back up again, load your project and hit play .. it will ask you if you'd like assistance to auto fix the certificate problem then you just follow the onscreen instructions and it does all the hard work for you :)
You have your provisioning profiles outdated.
xcode
Preferences
Accounts
Select your apple id
View Details (Right-bottom corner)
Download All
Run again and DONE!
This may be somewhat of an empirical approach but is worthwhile in the face of many commentators noting either "this worked for me" or "this didn't work for me". Firstly, the problem can lie in a number of locations, either your certificates (code signing identities) or your provisioning profiles. Identifying where the problem lies first before doing anything will save a lot of wasted effort. You will need to check in three places:
XCode
Keychain Access
The Developer Portal (Developer Members Centre)
OK, in XCode click on the Project (Above the Targets Heading), select Build Settings and scroll to 'Code Signing'. Expand the 'CODE_SIGNING_IDENTITY' heading and you will see a bunch of identities (Debug, Release etc.) Each one of these will match up with a certificate in Keychain Access. Find the match and check the expiry date...if it has expired you will need to update it in the Developer Portal and download it. Check EVERY identity, not just the first one you find that has expired. Also, if it has expired you will need to regenerate any provisioning profile that used the expired certificate.
If no problems with the certificates, check the expiry date of all the Provisioning Profiles. Once again, if they have expired, they will need to be regenerated.
Once complete, repeat the same process for the TARGET you are trying to build for.
None of this worked? An expired certificate is lurking in one of your provisioning profiles. A sign that this might be the case is that when you click on a CODE_SIGNING_IDENTITY the identity is below Other... eg.
This is usually a sure sign that there is an expired certificate lurking about and that one of your profiles is using it.
I faced to this problem when my membership was expired and I renewed it. I use xCode6 and I solve this problem by revoking expired developer certificate from Member Center and cleaning build folder ( alt+[Product>Clean] ). xCode handle others issue itself.
See "Replacing Expired Certificates" section on this link:
https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/IDEs/Conceptual/AppDistributionGuide/MaintainingCertificates/MaintainingCertificates.html
I had this problem with XCode 6.3 Below is the steps that worked for me.
Go to XCode > Preferences > Accounts Select your developer account then click View Details... Click on the refresh button on the left bottom of the window. It should notify you that you're missing few certificates. Click Request. XCode automatically should download missing certificates. Click Done and it should work.
you debug it on simulator only if you don't have iPhone Developer certificate. check on left corner in
xcode you select simulator not device.
I faced the same issue, I deleted all provisioning assets from xcode & added them back, and just relaunched Xcode.
My App was loaded on to the device and it worked.
This does also happen if your developer certificate is expired. Time to pay apple and renew it :P
First: go to build settings and check, if your valid Code Signing Identity is chosen.
If that doesn't help, try the more complicated stuff
In my case, this dialog message worked
The identity used to sign the executable is no longer valid.
Please verify that your device’s clock is properly set, and that your
signing certificate is not expired.
(0xE8008018).
My certificate in Keychain Access was given status to be not valid yet in red color with expiry about one year and an hour in future. I set my time to be one hour ahead and status of the certificate became valid in green color. So, anyone out here who thinks the solution to be the xcode restart is not correct but it would be cause of time elapsed of the xcode restart to make the certificate valid. As, by clicking the Fix Issue button revokes and creates new certificate with exactly one year ahead (plus some minutes depending upon locales to raise this issue).
My solution, after nothing else worked, was to go to Keychain Access and delete all "iOS developer" keys/certificates, then let Xcode regenerate them.
Try setting the time on the mobile device and the Mac to "set date and time automatically" checkbox and restart xcode, that did it for me
The Problem here is that your profile was built on an expired certificated
-so you have to go inside the developer portal and renew your certificate if it was expired
-then regenerate the profile so it will be rebulit on the new certificate
i suggest to use the iPhone configuration utility tool to manage profiles on your mac
If your certificate is not installed locally. Or you tried running the certificate and opted to "revoke and request" a new certificate then you have the option to do that on the machine you are trying to run on
go to Preferences-> Accounts-> under your AppleId -> View Details -> under signing identities you can see the status of your certificate "Valid" or "Revoked" if revoked and you want to request a new one go to the -> + then -> the type of distribution you are trying to use.
In Xcode 5.1 - there is a self help area that did the job for me.
You'll find it in the General section after clicking on your project name under > Targets.
You should see a warning icon and a description of the issue in the Identity section (right where you type in your build/version numbers).
It noticed that there was no certificate currently stored and via some self-help boxes and a change of my password, I got it going.
These were the reasons I had this error:
The App ID didn't have my iOS Developer Certificate checked (I'm a member of an Enterprise program) and I had 2 provisioning profiles with the same App ID in my Mac. I deleted one.
Hopefully this helps someone.
I tried all of the above. I kept getting the error about the UUID not being found.
I went to the project, opened project.pbxproj and found all instances of the UUID (2) and deleted the UUID (not the entire line).
Fixed the problem.
I fixed this issue by selecting the correct team within Xcode (I'm part of multiple teams). Also, I revoked my certificate, requested a new one, uploaded that, and then re-downloaded it.
Experienced the same issue. Was an issue with an expired certificate. You'll need to create a new cert and corresponding prov profile. Follow dulgan's advice for doing so.
Removed the profiles from the directory on your machine: "~/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles". And logged to apple developer centre and edited the specific provisioning profile and selected the certificate for provisioning profile and generated the profile again. Installed the new profile and it worked for me.
Found another way this occurs today. When you edit your provisioning profile after a certificate change you can see the certificates selected says 2 of 1 certificates selected (if you just use 1 certificate). Just by unselecting and reselecting the certificate you can regenerate and install the profile and it solves the problem.
#vomako 's solution almost solved my problem but I had to take another couple of steps.
I refer to the following...
In Xcode 6.1.1, I went to Preferences --> Accounts --> View Details
After upgrading to Xcode 6.1.1, the main issue for me that the >View Details button was greyed out.
I had to delete my account, restart Xcode, then add my developer account back in.
After this step, I could yet again view details and refresh my provisioning profiles.
I selected None from Team dropdown in target general settings. Then selected the original team. Xcode shows some spinner next to it. Wait for it to complete and then everything works. Tried it in Xcode 6.2
I had this problem several times, normally it can be solved by close-reopen Xcode.
I did delete derived data from Xcode organizer. It eventually works
Today I faced this issue on my Xcode 6.3 public release.
I tried to restart Xcode several times but issue remained there.
What worked for me is
Manually create a new development profile at "http://developer.apple.com"
download and install this new profile, select this new profile from xcode build and run.
