Development team has reached maximum number of registered iPhone devices

I believe this is a problem with paid developer accounts that have expired and become free developer accounts. Technically free accounts are limited to 3 devices. If you have a previous paid account that had more than 3, I bet Apple didn’t clear out those devices, which means you are over your limit of devices. … Read more

Why not use development provisioning instead of ad hoc?

There’s one situation in which you need an Ad Hoc profile, and that’s when you want to test Push Notifications. If you test Push Notifications on a Development Provisioning Profile, your push notifications need to be sent using the Development Push Notification Certificate for your SSL connections to Apple’s sandbox APNS server.

A valid provisioning profile for this executable was not found… (again)

This happened to me yesterday. What happened was that when I added the device Xcode included it in the wrong profile by default. This is easier to fix now that Apple has updated the provisioning portal: Log in to developer.apple.com/ios and click Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles Click devices and make sure that the device in … Read more

Unannounced, the Mac Developer side was no longer provisioned. Looking at Accounts, showed only iOS program signing identities and provisioning profiles. … Read more

Xcode 8 signing errors, can’t log in with account and no provisioning profile

I can’t take credit for this solution, it came from BrianBatchelder on the apple forum. I had to go to “XCode” -> “Preferences” -> “Accounts”, where it turned out my Apple ID had timed-out. After logging-in there, and then restarting Xcode, my profile was automatically “repaired”, and all is now well. Re-starting Xcode is important … Read more

Can I distribute my App for any device without UDID?

“Private company”. There’s the clue. App store developers can only distribute apps to (up to 100) devices with known UDIDs. That’s the $100 plan most of us have. We can only create signing profiles for ad-hoc distribution to our 100 devices, or for sending to Apple. ([eta:] Or, now, for time-limited distribution to specific AppleIDs … Read more
