Removing provisional profile with ios 8 and Xcode 6.0.1 - ios8

I cannot seem to remove the provisional profiles on my device using iOS 8 General settings since the profile selection is gone. Xcode 6.0.1 also does not allow for removing provisional profiles. Anyone know how to remove provisional profiles on a device running iOS 8 and Xcode 6.0.1?

It´s a little bit hidden in Xcode 6:
Open Xcode and go to Window --> Devices via the menu bar
On the left pane right click on your device
Choose option "Show Provisioning Profiles ..."
Delete the installed Provisioning Profile via the "-" button
That´s it.

In Xcode:
Window menu —> Devices
Choose the desired device from left panel
On the bottom of the left pane there is a settings icon. Use it to select show provisioning profiles
In the list of all the provisioning profiles installed on your device(s), add or delete it.

Xcode 9 Beta 3 - Where is iOS11 Simulator?

I have just installed XCode 9 beta 3.
But I don't see an iOS 11 version under Pref, Components.
How can I setup an iOS simulator?
1) Open the Devices and Simulators window:
Window -> Devices and Simulators
2) Click the plus in the lower lefthand corner
You will see dialog to add a new simulator
3) Select a device (i.e. iPhone 7) that supports iOS 11 and click create
I had a similar issue only seeing iPhone 5 and 6 sims and not able to create / download iPhone 7 simulator with iOS11. My solution was to move Xcode 9 beta 3 from the downloads folder into the Applications folder along side xcode 8. I didn't realise it was still in the DL folder. Once launched from the Applications folder Xcode 9 beta 3 loaded with all the sims in place. Worth checking if your's is still in the downloads folder too with a previous version of Xcode in the Applications folder.
Follow these steps to add a (new) simulator
Click on Simulator icon and open simulator list.
At the end of list, there is an option to add new simulator "Add Additional Simulator". That will open 'Device & Simulator' window.
Switch to 'Simulator' tab.
There are three field in simulator tab.
Click on '+' icon, on left bottom corner of window.
Simulator Name: Enter simulator name here
Device Type: Select iPad from this dropdown list
OS Version: Select OS version from this dropdown list
Click on 'Create'
A new simulator will be added in your Simulator option list.
Look at this snapshot to understand flow of above steps:
And if there is no simulator/OS version in simulator list, you're looking for,
Click on Simulator icon and open simulator list.
At the end of list, there is an option to add new simulator "Download Simulator". That will open 'Component' window (from Xcode >> Preferences).
Select/click simulator from list, which you need to download.

Xcode 7.3 does not show up any downloadable iOS simulator

Just upgrade my Xcode from 7.2.1 to 7.3. Have no idea why. Do I have choices other than delete Xcode and reinstall again? (which I highly don't like).
BTW, the documentation tab is fine. Just a blank simulators.
Update: If I click "check and isntall now", it reports:
Could not download and install OS X 10.11.4 Documentation. The certificate for this server is invalid. You might be connecting to a server that is pretending to be “devimages.apple.com.edgekey.net” which could put your confidential information at risk.
I checked cert on https://devimages.apple.com.edgekey.net, seems fine..
In Xcode 7.3 I found the following way to add older simulator versions.
1.) Choose "Window" from the menu bar
2.) Choose "Devices" from the drop down menu list
Result: Devices window opens
3.) Click the "+" icon in the lower left-hand corner of the window.
4.) Choose the Add Simulator option
Result: You can add a simulator (and download older ones).

Add device to auto-generated Xcode 5 provisioning profile

I have created a simple project with XCode 5.
When I have created the project, XCode automatically generate the provisioning profile for my app. (I see it on my provisioning portal).
But now I added and removed some devices from my device list.
Is there a way to add a devices to provisioning profile generated by Xcode 5.
Thanks
This is what worked for me:
Go to Apple development portal and add the device (UDID) as you normally do. Till now the UDID is not added to your provisioning profile.
In Xcode, go to project settings and select Add an Account from the Team dropdown.
A dialog will pop up. Just press Cancel. (if xCode automatically generated Profiles that means you'd already have the account setup. You don't need to add a new account)
Now from left side, select the Apple account this project belongs to.
Click View Details
Now just click the refresh button at the bottom left side of the window.
It will take some time to refresh, but when it finishes, the UDID will be added to your X-Code generated Provisioning Profile.
Right click on the on your device and select "Add Device to Member Center". That will add your device to your provisioning portal.
Per XCode 5, provisioning profiles are managed by XCode 5. You see this in your Developer account.
If you wish to develop, you should create a new profile by clicking [+] on the top right and selecting "iOS App Development". You can then select which device you would like to add to this profile. Later on, you can add additional devices.
Apparently from Xcode, profiles that are managed by Xcode can not be altered.
I deleted the provisioning profile from iOS Provisioning Profiles on developer.apple.com and then xCode automagically regenerated it with the new devices added.
Took a few "update please" in Preferences->Accounts->Provisioning Profiles in xCode before the change happened.

Provisioning Profiles menu item missing from Xcode 5

After spending a whole day installing a fresh copy of Mac OS X v10.8 (Mountain Lion), Xcode 5, fixing provisioning profiles, certificates, creating new ones, I finally managed to get my applications running on my iPad again. The problem is that in Xcode 5 I don't have a menu item for Library - Provisioning Profiles, and I don't know what could have happened. I restarted the computer, tried some things, but I really have no idea what I could do. How can I fix this problem?
These settings have now moved to Preferences > Accounts:
If you like to manually manage your profiles (mostly to clean up):
Open Windows/Devices in Xcode 6
Select your device
Show Provisioning Profiles:
You'll get + and - buttons to add/remove profiles:
No longer supported ... you can also download Apple's iPhone Configuration Utility 3.5 for Mac OS X, it still has "Provisioning Profiles" and works with Xcode 5 -- it's now gone from Apples site but you can find an alternative download link in #suda's comment.
Provisioning files are located in:
/Users/${USER}/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles/
Just remove the out-of-date files.
Xcode 5 lost my Mac Provisioning Profile while the one for iOS was present. The tips elsewhere helped solve the problem; this is what I did, because I noticed the lists were too short and did not include *Mac Team Provisioning Profile: **
Xcode menu => Preferences => Accounts
Select the Apple ID in the left panel.
Click the View Details button on the right.
In the pop-over that follows click the round refresh arrow. The lists will refresh after the download from the Member Center finishes. This can take a few minutes.
The provisioning profiles can then be selected in a Mac project under Build Settings => Code Signing => Provisioning Profile.
Try this:
Xcode >> Preferences >> Accounts
You can add account in the preference -> Accounts setting.
It seems that you already configure xCode4, then I think you can select your
certificates for compiling in project-> Building Setting directly since your
certificates are already in your keychain.
After searching a few times in google, i found one software for provisioning profiles.
Install this iPhone configuration utility software and manage your all provisioning profiles in MAC.
Stupid as it may sound but all "Provisioning Profiles" re-appear under "Organizer - Devices" once you connect a real device.
For me, the refresh in xcode 5 prefs->accounts was doing nothing. At one point it showed me three profiles so I thought I was one refresh away, but after the next refresh it went back to just one profile, so I abandoned this method.
If anyone gets this far and is still struggling, here's what I did:
Close xcode 5
Open xcode 4.6.2
Go to Window->Organizer->Provisioning Profiles
Press Refresh arrow on bottom right
When I did this, everything synced up perfectly. It even told me what it was downloading each step of the way like good software does. After the sync completed, I closed xcode 4.6.2, re-opened xcode 5 and went to preferences->accounts and voila, all of my profiles are now available in xocde 5.

How do you get to the XCode Provisioning Organizer?

How do you get to the XCode Provisioning Organizer?
In Xcode, select Organizer from the Window menu, and you will get a window that give you all sorts of information about your devices and provisioning profiles. Also, there is an application called iPhone Configuration Utility (on my computer, it is in the /Applications/Utilities folder), which has pretty much the same information as the Xcode Organizer window.
You need to connect up your device, and when you click on the device in the Organizer window, you can add and remove profiles.
From the menu: Window > Organizer. Then on the left, expand Development and choose Provisioning Profiles
