Answer 1

Answer ( I have had this issue 2 times by switching MACS & adding new applciations )

Issue: Profile not showing up in dropdown below ( Automatic Distribution or Distribution )

As long as you are sure your info.plist is ok and have matching ( com.companyname.something ) & your CERTS are in Keychain then this is what is what cleared it up for me 2 TIMES !

** This seems to be some sort of refresh issue ( where a old profile is cached OR newer profile/bundle not loading in MAC )

[ I use VS on Windows and connect to MAC ]

1. Open Visual Studio for MAC ( not windows )
2. Create a new ( blank form ) iOS project
3. Click Visual Studio in Menu and Click Preferences
4. Click Apple Developer Accounts ( ADD YOUR APPLE ACCOUNT )
5. CLICK VIEW DETAILS & DOWNLOAD ALL PROFILES & Close
6. Open info.plist in your Folder View in VS
7. Check Manual Provisioning & Type in bundle Identifier com.companyname.whatever & App name
8. SAVE
9. RUN BLANK APP & CLOSE IT 10 ********* Go back to Windows right click on iOS Project Select Distribution AND YOUR BUNDLE IS IN THE DROP DOWN !!

[ If bundle not there re-connect to MAC right click and see if its there in your dropdown - remember the bundle must be in your iOS project ( root ) ]

( Automatic distribution will work as your bundle will be in the dropdown below in Windows Visual Studio & RELEASE TO APP STORE ).
