With a certain project in Xcode 9 beta 6 when I try to Upload to the App Store I get:
I am the "Admin" role for this account.
All contracts are up-to-date
I tried removing/re-adding my account from Xcode prefs several times
Submitting for the same project from Xcode 8 works (however I need to upload from Xcode 9 for this project because it links against iOS 11 beta)
Another developer on the team is seeing the same thing so this seems like it might be common. Anyone find a workaround?
I encountered the same issue with xCode 9 GM build and others reported it as well in xCode 10 and xCode 11. Deleting the derived data actually solved it for me. Hopefully it will help others as well.
Close xCode
rm -fr ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/
Reopen xCode and try to upload again
This seems to be issue with Xcode 9. Solution is to use Application Loader tool.
Step 1 : Create an IPA file
Clean your project from Product -> Clean (cmd + shift + k )
Select Product -> Archive
Once archive is successfully completed it will open in Organizer window
Press Export button present on right side
Now select the distribution method as per your need and click on Next button
This will show the App Store distribution options. Now click on Next button
Re-sign your project (preferred is Automatically manage signing) and click on Next button
There will be Review window containing IPA content details. Click on Export.
Now choose the location where folder is to be saved and Click on Export.
This will create an folder containing IPA, packaging.log, DistributionSummary.plist and ExportOptions.plist file
Step 2 : Upload IPA using Application Loader
Right click on Xcode tool present on Slide-bar. Goto Open Developer Tool -> Application Loader
This opens Application Loader. Press on Choose button and select IPA file.
This will analyse IPA file and will show IPA details. You can press on Activity button to see list of activity performed while uploading app. Click on Next.
This will create iTunes Connect API analysis file.
Once it is successfully uploaded it will show Success. Now click on Next.
You IPA file is submitted to AppStore successfully
The only solution I have found for now, is to generate IPA for AppStore and then upload it with Application Loader.
I just had this happen to me and this was my solution.
Full Quit out of xCode 9
Reopen xCode
Update to a new version number
Archive again
Result: It worked
It's a pretty basic fix, but hopefully it will for you too.
None of the mentioned answers helped me. Below I am mentioning what all I have tried to solve the issue but didn't work.
i) Check provisioning profile & Certificate combination.
ii) Clean
iii) Quit Xcode
iv) Delete derived data
v) Restart Xcode
What worked for me is
i) Open Xcode preferences
ii) Check iTunes account you are using. If it is already logged in, remove it.
iii) Login the iTunes account again
iv) Xcode will start process automatically once it gets access now.
v) Select the provisioning profile that you are using again while Xcode asks for it in the popup.
vi) Xcode will proceed upload process.
This worked for me. Hope it will save some of your's time as well.
I just had a call with Apple developer customer support. They said its a known issue and the team is actively working on it. But there is no timeline insight.
Following solution that worked for me.
Use Xcode 8 until Apple engineers fix this issue:
The solution may work even if you don't downgrade to Xcode 8
Steps for Downgrading form Xcode 9 to Xcode 8
1. Download Xcode 8 from:
https://developer.apple.com/download/more/
2. Install Xcode 8.
3. Create an ipa build
In Xcode go to
Menu -> Product -> Archive -> Export
4. Use the Application Loader to upload your ipa to iTunes connect
Application Loader can be found at:
In Xcode go to
Xcode -> Open Developer Tools -> Application Loader
Let me know if it helped
The same case happened to me.
Also when I tried to get crash reports, it shows that my session has expired.
I have just restarted my Xcode and it worked.
In My case none of the above solutions worked,
I have an access for both Developer account and iTunes Connect account, but I faced the same Issue.
The only option worked for me is updating my MAC OS before it was 10.13.4, after update to 10.13.6 the problem was resolved. Hope this will help to someone.
I've managed to get it working by creating a new user in iTunes Connect, with just the "Developer" role.
For me, that also required to creating a new Apple ID.
I then added that new user in Xcode:
Now it seems to work.
What works for me is to
remove the apple ID from the accounts known to XCode
to add the account again (do not import the account again)
See On Xcode 7 I keep receiving error "No accounts with iTunes connect access"
Edit: This worked for me in Xcode 9 GM. I don't know if it will be an issue in the final version
What worked for me is that I changed my regular AppleID email, with the equivalent #icloud.com alias.
For example, I didn't use myemail#gmail.com, I used myemail#icloud.com and it worked.
(Which I really don't prefer, I prefer using my personal email, but if it works, it works)
I could not use application loader because my password is not accepted. Even after changing my Apple ID password it was not accepted.
Restarting XCODE solved the upload problem this time. But it is a repetitive problem.
Apple is becoming a nightmare... XCode and iTunesConnect always have been...
I just removed and re-added my developer account for the Xcode 9. To remove account goto preferences -> select your account -> hit the minus icon(-). To add your account just click on the + icon next to it.
Restarting the laptop fixed this. Didn't try restarting XCode itself, just rebooted the whole laptop.
I also encountered with the same problem. But after I updated the Xcode to the current latest version of Xcode 9.2 solved my problem. I took the update on 2017-12-21.
For me remove derived data, clean project and try again working fine.
Please follow below steps:
Quit XCode
rm -fr ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/
Reopen XCode and try to upload again
Hope it will help!
Closed Xcode and reopened it. This worked for me. This was also the most popular answer on the apple forum. Do this first.
Your xCode must be open for longer time.
Quit the xCode and Reopen. It will work.
Got the same issue fixed with below steps.
Just do Quit XCode completely even dock too then wait for few seconds and Reopen the Xcode then proceed to Archive again freshly.
then believe problem solve :).
All the best.
Solution that worked for me in Xcode 9.1
Go to Preferences.
Go to Accounts tab.
Select the desired account.
If there is a login expired error displayed, login again.
Make sure the error has gone away.
Restart Xcode.
Try to upload the archive again.
Here's what worked for me (after trying many times of signing-out and signing-in):
Sign out your Apple ID (by going to Preferences with Cmd+,)
Sign in with your Apple ID, and make sure you sign in with ***#icloud.com
Somehow it all started working for me...
Posting it here in case it's helpful to anyone else. Have no clue how this solved the problem (and how the problem emerged in the first place).
Actually, it's apple server error. So, wait for some time and then upload. It'll work.
In my case this is the problem of firewall when I connected to other network it's working.
For me it helped to close Xcode and reopen it again, it was that simple ;)
I have a macbook air and I went to the store to install Xcode 7.3 and hit the update App button, and a loading icon appeared but after waiting 30 min time nothing happened. I successfully installed simple recorder from the store but I can't install Xcode.
What can i do?
What are the options to download it?
Try restarting your computer to see if Xcode has installed. This will also refresh the app store, so try downloading it again.
If all else fails:
You should uninstall all current versions of Xcode on your Mac. Do this by dragging each application to the Trash can. Delete your trash.
After, try downloading Xcode again and everything should go through.
You aren't aloud to download old versions of Xcode from the App Store.
I suggest you to download the new XCode 8. It works just fine, even if your update button doesn't seem to work. Need to use the App Store. Also, if you happen to be a React Native developer, you may want to follow this article just after having installed this new XCode version.
If you simply cannot install the latest version, I suggest going to www.developer.apple.com and click the Develop Tab, Xcode, Download, sign in with your apple id, and get an Xcode beta version.
www.developer.apple.com -> Login -> Account -> Downloads
If only spinner is showing, without progress. Open Activity monitor and check if installd is running and using a lot of memory. Try killing that process and update again.
I would like to update to Xcode 8, but when I start the App Store it just shows me an Open button, but my existing Version is 7.3.1
The requirements should be El Capitan 10.11.5 - I have 10.11.6 installed.
Why is there no Update button?
Check if you have multiple installations of Xcode on your system. The App Store often gets confused and loads one you're not considering, such as the version on your back up drive. It's possible it has updated a different installation than the one it launches as well.
Executing the following command in a terminal window should list all installations of Xcode the App Store may find.
mdfind "kMDItemCFBundleIdentifier == 'com.apple.dt.Xcode'"
When you have Xcode open (from hitting Open in the store), right click the Xcode icon on your dock, select Options, and Show in Finder. Does the installation it shows match up with the one you expected it to launch?
If you specifically open each Xcode installation the mdfind command found, are any of them Xcode 8?
You can control which installation of Xcode the App Store will update. Check each of the app folders, and look for a Contents/_MASReceipt folder. Ensure the installation you want to update has that (and a receipt file inside that), and delete the _MASReceipt folder for all of the other versions.
Now the App Store app should update the correct installation for you.
All I had to do was restart my mac. Then, went to the App Store and saw "Update" instead of "Open".
I need to completely reinstall Xcode 6 and remove all the files and settings with it.
I know that it is uninstalled so that you go to mission control, long click on it and then click on the X button, like on iPhone.
I also know that you can drag it to trash from applications.
But after all those, when I install it again through AppStore and open the last project I was working on, Xcode will open the project on exactly the same class where i t was shut down and even show the last error I faced!
I don't want that. That means that some User Preferences are still saved somewhere and I want to get rid of them as I have never ever had Xcode installed on my Mac.
How to do that?
You can use several uninstall programs like you would uninstall any other Mac application.
So some examples might be App Cleaner or Clean My Mac.
Hope that helps :)
I just downloaded XCode_6_beta_6.dmg from the official apple website. However, when prompted to drag the installation to the application folder, it just unarchived the installation but does not install XCode_6_beta_6. When i try to open xcode_6_beta_6 from the applications folder, the new xcode6 beta icon just keeps popping in the application dock and does nothing. How do i overcome this situation so that the new xcode6 beta is installed on my machine?
For some weird reason, apple does not trust this installation and hence does not continue.
Please follow the below instructions to continue with the installation.
Open System Preferences
Open Security and Privacy
Unlock the settings screen if it is not already unlocked.
select "Anywhere" from the "Allow apps downloaded from:" section.
lock and close the preferences screen.
Your installation shall start in a moment!!
Also happened to me. Used Deepak's fix but had an additional strange problem where the Icon would still stay bouncing in the dock. Be patient & wait (for me it took a good 10 minutes!) for a dialogue box to eventually appear saying 'This is an application downloaded from the internet, do you want to open?' Obviously click 'Open'. Odd, considering it's Apple's own app.
