As you all know, Apple changed how Xcode works such that you can't ever create an app with a previously used app ID, even if you're just writing test apps to use locally. Up until now I've just been typing in garbage IDs to get around this stupid antifeature, but today I was greeted with this gem:
So now I'm blocked from creating any more test apps, effectively stopping my development dead in its tracks (I write libraries and frameworks, and need to test them in test apps).
Does anyone know of a way to bypass or disable Apple's restrictions?
It is a kind of limit of free developer accounts, but you could figure out a solution for that:
1- Navigate to the project of any previous application that have been installed on the same device has the problem with .
2- Open Build Settings tab for the app project in Xcode .
3- Search for Bundle ID and copy it .
4- Open up your current app that has the problem and navigate to the same place > Paste and Replace the current Bundle ID with the old one.
5- Run the app.
!!! WALA
Same thing happened to me. I presume it's some kind of a new limit that Apple has put on "non-paying" developers, and that it limits you to 10 apps in 7 days.
Edit - To resolve this, I'll just make a random apple dev ID...
I faced the same situation in my new mackbook with xcode 7.3.1 version.
Even if I tried with old bundle identifier, it didnt worked.
Following below steps helped me to run the app in device.
Got to xcode preference
Click accounts and choose your apple id.
Click the View details
And Click download All.
This will download all the provisioning profile associated with given apple id.
And after that use any identifier that you have used before. You can easily get the old identifier from provisioning profile names.
Just use the bundle ID of any old app that you have already installed like this and change the bundle ID after 7 days. I think apple puts a limit for free developer accounts.
EDIT:
Its important about what #haquangvu mentioned in his answer that, your old app get replaced. So take care of it and thanks #haquangvu for your answer.
Use one of your old Bundle IDs.
It works.
But your old Application will be delete.
DO NOT MAKE ANOTHER ID thats not the solution!!!
To make it work thats what you need to do:
Window > Preferences - Account
Then choose your apple ID and your team, then click on View Detail... Button on the bottom right.
A new window will show up, click on Download all button on the bottom left and all of yours Provisioning Profile will show up.
After that just Left click on those ones you don't have to use anymore and click to move to trash.
after you delete enough profiles, you'll be able to build your project again!
I had this and the other answers here didn't fix the problem. I solved it by opening Window > Devices, finding my device, right-clicking it to "Show Provisioning Profiles", and then deleting a bunch of the profiles there.
Then it worked!
The workaround is to use an id that you previously created. As Xcode does not list the Bundle IDs via Apple ID Details any more, save this into your .bash_profile or ~/.zshrc and call it with list_xcode_provisioning_profile from a terminal
list_xcode_provisioning_profiles() {
while IFS= read -rd '' f; do
2> /dev/null /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c 'Print :Entitlements:application-identifier' /dev/stdin \
<<< $(security cms -D -i "$f")
done < <(find "$HOME/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles" -name '*.mobileprovision' -print0)
}
To make this answer easier to find I just copied it from hyperknot here: Parsing mobileprovision files in bash?
I have a paid developer account and found this happening in Xcode 9 after creating a bunch of simple test/example apps. In the past, I would have simply selected a "wildcard" App ID. However, Xcode doesn't seem to have a way to do this anymore.
Researching based on the wildcard, I found Technical Q&A QA1713: When should I use a wildcard App ID?. Following these steps seems to have worked for me. (The signing errors are gone, but we'll see what happens in another 7 days or 10 apps, lol.)
Here are the steps, if you have a paid developer account:
Log into your developer account.
In the list on the left, click on Certificates, Profiles & IDs.
In the new list on the left, under Identifiers, click on App IDs.
Click the '+' symbol in the upper right of the page. (You're now at the 'Registering an App ID' page.)
In the box under App ID Description, enter something to describe your App ID. (Note that this description has to be purely alphanumeric; spaces seem to be allowed, but nothing else.)
Under App ID Suffix, select the radio button for Wildcard App ID.
In the box below that, enter the beginning of what you'd like to use as your app's bundle identifier, followed by a dot-asterisk. (For example, maybe your app bundle identifiers in Xcode are something like com.myname.appname. Then, in the box under Wildcard App ID, you'd enter com.myname.*.)
Under App Services, select any available items you think you might use in an app at some point in the near future. (Only a few of the items are available for selecting at this step.)
At the bottom of the page, click the Continue button.
At the resulting 'Confirm your App ID.' page, scan your selections to ensure they're okay; then, at the bottom of the page, click the Register button.
At the resulting 'Registration complete.' page, you can again review the registered options. Then, just scroll to the bottom, and click the Done button.
The new wildcard App ID will now appear in your list of App IDs.
Next, go into Xcode, and create your app, entering an Organization Identifier that matches the wildcard App ID you registered without the dot-asterisk. (For example, if you enter com.myname, Xcode completes what becomes the bundle identifier with a dot and the app name.)
When the project opens at the signing page, Xcode will "Automagically manage signing" correctly ;)
Note: If you have a free developer account, as of the date of this posting, you can't access the 'Certificates, Profiles & IDs' link in your account. ;(
Xcode>General>Identity
Copy Previous Bundle ID
Bundle Identifier : AppleDeveloperName-PreviousProjectName(or whatever)
Paste it in the new project's Bundle ID. It should be fine now.
I've recently upgraded from windows 7 to windows 10 and when installing GitHub desktop, I'm getting the following error:
"Application cannot be started, contact the application vendor."
When I click on details, there is the following error:
"Unable to install this application because an application with the same identity is already installed."
I tried several troubleshoots, such as:
running the .exe file as administrator;
deleting the 2.0 folder from Local/apps/
disabling windows defender
But none of them seems to work. I cant understand what the problem may be, since I had no trouble installing github desktop on windows 7.
EDIT This method solved my problem:
Hold Windows button + R
Type in %TEMP%
Delete the entire content of temp.
I fixed this problem by adding permissions to the UserName for the of the folder containing GitHub.exe:
Using the explorer paste "%UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Apps\2.0
In the search box write "github.exe"
In the result list right-click the file & select open file location.
Right click the folder -> Properties->Security
Click [Edit...] for "Group or user names:"
Add the account user name to the list giving it full permission.
This may not apply to your situation, but here is what fixed the problem for me:
Find this file:
C:\Users[YOUR USER NAME HERE]\AppData\Local\GitHub\TheLog.txt
In that file, search for this string:
"System.Security.SecurityException: Requested registry access is not allowed."
If you find that, look down from that line, one at a time, until you find mention of some specific application. For me it was MS Visual Studio:
"at GitHub.IO.ExternalProgramLauncher.IsVisualStudioInstalled()"
Running as an administrator, run regedit and look for keys related to the application in question. If access to reading them is denied, rectify that by right-clicking on the name of the key and choosing 'permissions'. (I decline to provide instructions on how to use the permissions interface here, but it is fairly straightforward) If you can grant yourself permission, that may fix your problem. It worked for me.
If you want to find the exact correct key, download and use a tool from MicroSoft called 'Process Monitor'. Unfortunately, even when you filter to show only registry events, you will still have at least 25,000 or so to look through, and the list is not sortable. >_< This was not exactly easy, but by scrolling up from the bottom and looking for 'ACCESS DENIED' in the unsortable 'Result' column for a while I was able to find the exact registry event where access was denied which caused GH DT to fail. In my case it was this key:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VisualStudio.DTE.14.0
I ran regedit using my admin account, and ran it 'as administrator', found the key and changed the permissions. Oddly, it only worked when I added 'Administrators' (plural). When I added 'Administrator', it still refused to allow access to the key.
Hope this is related to your problem, or someone's who reads this. :)
Simply right click on the installation file and run as admin. It will automatically adjust itself to your system settings and install without error.
I'm using Xcode 6.1, OS X Yosemite preview 8, and I'm getting the following error on code signing my app:
Command /usr/bin/codesign failed with exit code 1
Reading on Google, it seems to be linked to expired certificates/provisioning profiles. I deleted all of my certificates & profiles, created a new development certificate & profile, installed both, restarted my Mac, and I’m still getting the same error.
Can anyone shed some light on how to resolve this problem?
How about this: Try Xcode -> Preferences -> Accounts -> Choose your account, and then View Details -> Refresh (button on bottom left), Refresh again, restart XCode. Sounds like voodoo but it works for me and my team! (Posting it as answer, because it DOES work, at least sometimes and for some people. Possibly related to the weather ;) )
as of Xcode 6.3.2, here's what I did.
from main project view, click on build settings and in the search bar type in certificate, a code signing tab should pop up, I chose "dont sign code". and it worked
So I've managed to fix the issue for my particular case - in the build settings, instead of automatically detecting the certificate & provisioning profile to use, I manually set them - and it works.
In my case I was getting this error while trying to build a project I downloaded from Github for my own personal use. I just went to the build settings and told it not to sign the code.
Another gotcha I noticed is that codesign will fail if run from an ordinary ssh login session. It has to be run on a MacOSX desktop GUI shell window. This catches me every time, so I've added a line to the build script to print a message about running the script on the MacOSX GUI if codesign fails.
Delete previous provisional profile and add new provisional profile.restart the machine if still its giving an error like above. when your machine shut off then automatically your device asking for permission then select Confirm and run your code....its working.
There appears to be a bug in XCode (I'm using 7.1.1) with returning to "Signing: None" after having attempted to sign with an expired identity, resulting in this codesign error even after you've apparently removed the bad signing identity.
The project.pbxproj file retains TargetAttributes for the expired identity, and Debug and Release settings both continue to show the following instead of the original empty values:
"CODE_SIGN_IDENTITY[sdk=macosx*]" = "Mac Developer";
This persists after cmd+alt+shift+K and closing XCode. I fixed it with a git reset (if I hadn't committed before attempting to sign, I'm not sure how I would have found this).
I had to delete all my developer certificates from Keychain Access first, then use the Preferences -> Accounts -> View Details -> Download All approach to successfully re-sign my code.
I am creating a newsstand application. the application is ready, now i am trying to upload the app in apple store using Application Loader. While uploading the zip file its showing the error message as
Unable to process application info.plist validation at this time due to a general error (1095)
I googled this in the net, but did not find the solution still.
This is clearly an Apple server issue, not an Xcode/iOS/OSX issue. Just wait patiently and Apple's servers will catch up to the traffic, or solve whatever issues they're having at their end.
If you're anxious, feel free to just sit there and restart Xcode until it works - but it's not restarting Xcode, only the time you waste that's solving the issue.
While you're waiting, run your apps in Instruments and solve some performance issues ;)
I just had this error. I waited an hour and tried again with the exact same build and it was all good. Vote for it being Apple's temporary glitch.
I had the same problem. I closed Xcode, restart my computer and it worked.
One possible problem to this is corrupted png files. The png files should not be interlaced
I found a solution to the problem.
If you're using Xcode 4+, you don't have to use Application Loader anymore. Instead you should archive your project in Xcode (Product->Archive). It will then open the organizer, where 3 buttons are displayed. Hit the submit button.
If you've created an entry for your app with Itunes Connect, you should be able to choose that from the list, and then select your distribution profile. Then hit the next button, and you should get a message, that tells you, that your app has been submitted.
At least that worked for me.
Use Application Loader.
I'm getting this a lot today.
Application Loader worked.
XCode > Project > Archive
XCode > Organizer > Distribute > Enterprise/add Hoc > Save As
Saves as YOURAPP.ipa.
Make sure Save for Enterprise Deploy remains UNCHECKED.
Download latest Application Loader.
tap 'Deliver Your App'
make sure new version in itunes connect in WAITING FOR UPLOAD state
Click on Activity... button
TIP: open Console.app to see XCode Validation errors
Click on ALL MESSAGE on list of logs on right.
Then in search enter 'XCode' or 'Application Loader'
to monitor any errors with your upload.
Note:
I did all this and still got email about missing 120x120 icons.
Forgot to update them in Build Target > General Tab
List of new icon requirements for iOS7
http://www.icenium.com/resources/forums/icenium-general-discussion/missing-recommended-icon-file
Another reason why this can happen is the duplicate product name. Despite your app names, executable names, display names or bundle IDs are different, if the product name exists in your current apps this error is gonna occur.
"The server returned an invalid response. This may indicate that a network proxy is interfering with communication, or that Apple servers are having issues. Please try your request again later.""
Reset The internet connection.
Reopen the xcode.
Set the profile again.
Clean build.
And Archive the build.
Works perfect for me (With in 5 minutes no need to wait).
Thanks
It's just the time, because you can't control Apple's Server's traffic problem, We all merely become the victim of that..So cut the long story short...
By restarting XCODE may work but everyone as in my case, i tried by restarting XCODE, SYSTEM, ROUTER and anything and everything possible, only error name had changed from "The network connection was lost" to "The request timed out" and vice Versa..!
Just think at what time less people would be accessing the sever...
PS: Only perseverance can help you in this way..keep redialing..And WAIT and WATCH:P
I solved ... :)
Please remove all your icons and splash image also remove icon Files and icons File( IOS 5 ) from info.plist and then add all your icons to app bundle ...
After this update info.plist iconFiles field add desired name of icons....
And last but not least remove Provisioning profile from developer portal and recreate it ...
Clean your build and Archive it and using Application Loader submit it to AppStore ...
it work for me and i think it may help you...
Not every time not it is Apple server issue,sometime we did some bad linking according to me :)
I'm getting a dialog box asking to enter my apple developer id & password in xcode. It just says something like "To download this update enter your information." then i goes away.
Is this normal? Seems to me that this would be the perfect way for a trojan to get my apple id and pwd!
It has just happened to me, too (with the current GM Seed version). I was creating a new project when the pop-up dialog appeared.
To be on the safe side, I changed my password immediately after the incident.
What were YOU doing in Xcode when it happened to you? Are you using Xcode 3.2.2, too?
Anybody else having this issue?
The only explanation I found is here:
http://lists.apple.com/archives/xcode-users/2010/Mar/msg00265.html
Then, under /Developer/..., I found a .docset file with a time stamp corresponding to the point in time (plus a couple of minutes) when I had entered my credentials.
However, when I tried to log out & in again, open Xcode - Preferences - Documentation and initiate another download, Xcode did NOT ask me for my Apple ID/PDW again; instead, it asked me for the admin password as usual (I mean - usual for installations; the dialog box looked a bit different). So I am still wondering ...
