(I posted this in the "Distribution >> App Submission and Review" forum 2 days ago but it has not received a response. Trying here...)I had to rebuild my iMac a few months ago and I restored from my Time Machine backup.I now need to make a change to an app but what used to compile without error is now failing at the codesign step with:Signing Identity: "-"As far as I can see, all of the account profiles are valid with expiry dates in the future. The only 'odd' thing is that some have a 'Download' button in the 'Action' column of the 'Provisioning Profiles' seciotn of the account details - when I select the "Download All Profiles" button, they turn grey but never seem to download or disappear (even after aiting for several hours!). Looking at the 'developer' web page, all of my certificates and provisioning profiles are all active.Any ideas welcomedThanksSusan

Hi,my apps run on the iOSSimulator without problems and used to run on devices as well, but after updating to latest XCode-Version I am getting the above error message when trying to run an app on my iPhone 7. It says :"codesign wants to access key "access" in your bunch of keys . To allow this enter your password".... but my apple-Developer-ID-Password doesn't work. And until updating to latest XCode-Version I never had any problems with codesign when running an app on iPhone device.Any hints what's going wrong ?XCode Version 9.1 (9B55)iOS Version 11.1.2 (15B202)Latest High Sierra Version, macbook Pro 2015

I have an app at App Store from past two years, now I want to update that app with my recently created new version app for iOS11+ support.My old app has different Xcode project and new app with different. in this case, xcode says to me keep a unique bundle id. So how can I update my old app with a new Xcode project, with the same bundle id...

I hope the pending antitrust suits force Apple to allow us to sign and provision our own apps for more than a week. For the price paid I should be able to write my own apps and use them without restriction outside of Apple services such as iCloud and so on. I understand distribution restrictions but please kill that 1 week annoyance, give me some level of freedom over my own apps on my own device. Or I hope it’s forced. Cheers and Thanks in advance.

When I want to create ios development / distribution certificate it show error. The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSStatus error -2147416032.)

To support an older version of an iOS app, I needed to install Mojave with Xcode 9. I create a CSR and from there generate an iOS Distribution certificate online, which I download and double click to install in Keychain. However, when viewing in Keychain, it shows in red "iPhone Distribution: CompanyName certificate is not trusted". I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong as I follow the instructions to the T and have done this in the past with success. NOTE: I tried this with Sierra as well and got the same issue. It only seems to work on Catalina, which doesn't help me because I need an older version of Xcode.

I'm trying to generate a Pass Type certificate. In my request, I specifically specify the hash type as Sha256. However, when upload the request file, and generate the certificate on the apple developer site, the cer file states it is SHA1 (which has been depreciated). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Trying to validate an app for upload to mac app store. Using Big Sur, and Xcode 12.2 App will not validate. This is for an existing app I'm trying to update. It updated peffectly week just 2 weeks ago with Xocode 11.xx and Catalina. It was rejected a week ago for metadata concerns. I've corrected metadata concerns, and am trying to submit a new binary. I've tried validating the same bundle with a diffreent app id, and everything goes prefectly and is validated. Here is what the non-validation looks like: SUMMARY Team: XXXXXXX Certificate: Apple Distribution (Expires 10/31/21) Profile: Mac Team Store Provisioning Profile: com.XXXX.XXXX Symbols: Included Architectures: Intel 64-bit ENTITLEMENTS com.apple.security.files.user-selected.read-write true com.apple.application-identifier XXXX.com.XXXX.XXXX com.apple.developer.team-identifier XXXXXXXX com.apple.security.app-sandbox true ****** The result = Not Validated * Error message Xcode displayed. Unable to process application at this time due to the following error: Invalid Provisioning Profile. The provisioning profile included in the bundle com.XXXX.XXXX [com.XXXX.XXXX.pkg/Payload/XXXXYYYY.app] is invalid. [Invalid 'com.apple.application-identifier' entitlement value.] For more information, visit the macOS Developer Portal.. * end error message******** Any thoughts or suggestions??? Thanks in advance.

How to delete certificates from "Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles?" I have a new Mac and need to create new certificate for it but there is no option of deleting or editing of the existing certificates. When trying to add a new one the option is greyed out with the following commend: Developer ID Application This certificate is used to code sign your app for distribution outside of the Mac App Store. Maximum number of certificates generated.

I have some issues linking some frameworks when I run my iOS application. The issue comes as code signing version is not supported. I use Carthage for the dependency management. It links the framework then has the copy-framework script where it copies to the framework and does the code signing. For code signing it does the same thing codesign --force --sign ****** --preserve-metadata=identifier,entitlements path_to_framework The CodeDirectory for some frameworks after signing is 20200 and for others 20400. Obviously 20200 is not supported anymore hence the issue, although I don’t under why does it assign an old version number to it when it's been signed the same way in Big Sur. I have Xcode 12.3 and using Big Sur 11.4. Framework where it’s not working: Executable=********/Frameworks/FirebaseCore.framework/FirebaseCore Identifier=com.firebase.Firebase-FirebaseCore Format=bundle with generic CodeDirectory v=20200 size=226 flags=0x0(none) hashes=1+3 location=embedded Signature size=4886 Signed Time=18 Jun 2021 at 16:15:27 Info.plist entries=7 TeamIdentifier=******** Sealed Resources version=2 rules=10 files=1 Internal requirements count=1 size=196 Framework where the code signing works properly: Executable=********/Frameworks/RxSwift.framework/RxSwift Identifier=io.rx.RxSwift Format=bundle with Mach-O universal (arm64) CodeDirectory v=20400 size=74833 flags=0x0(none) hashes=2332+3 location=embedded Signature size=4886 Signed Time=18 Jun 2021 at 16:16:07 Info.plist entries=21 TeamIdentifier=******** Sealed Resources version=2 rules=10 files=0 Internal requirements count=1 size=176 Any idea what the issue can be?

I am trying to compile Xcode project on an online platform Bitrise. I am facing issue with sign in and provisioning .. after trying 4-5 days I am approaching you. Please solve this. ❌ error: No profiles for 'my app bundle id' were found: Xcode couldn't find any iOS App Development provisioning profiles matching 'my app bundle id'. Automatic signing is disabled and unable to generate a profile. To enable automatic signing, pass -allowProvisioningUpdates to xcodebuild. (in target 'myapp-Development' from project 'myapp') How to enable this "allowProvisioningUpdates" also why it is too difficult to do such processes with apple development.. I tried for android and it compiled successfully in a single attempt. please help.

In my certificate list, I see a certificate type called “iOS Distribution Managed”. What is the difference between this and “iOS Distribution”? It's kind of automatic. I don't remember creating it

I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program. When I want to archive my project, I have an error message : "Automatic signing is unable to resolve an issue - Signing certificate is invalid. It may have been revoked or expired." How to have a valid signature certificate ?

I am trying to sign a Java application, packaged in a disk image, via jpackage, invoked via Ant (so no XCode anywhere). The packaging itself works fine, but I am having trouble figuring out the signing parameters. In particular, it seems I will have to provide a parameter --mac-signing-key-user-name What value should I give to this parameter? I have an Apple Developer Account (well, obviously...), I have generated a certificate and quite a few other things, but I am confused as to what the "signing-key-user-name" should be. The error message I currently get from jpackage is: No certificate found matching [...] using keychain [] I am on MAC OS 12.6 and JDK 17. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
