No identities are available for signing Xcode 5

Question

I have an error \"No identities are available for signing\" when try to validate my app in Xcode 5. I tried all: Recreate certificates and provisioning profiles, all methods

Answer 1

Creating a new certificate, Profile in Apple development center did not work for me! I tried editing a profile/certificates and download again and double click to install in KeyChain, but still did not work. I restarted XCode (Version 7 and Mac on El Capitan), restarted Mac but still did not work!

What worked for me is: XCode -> Preferences -> Accounts - Then I deleted the Apple ID. Shutdown my Mac, and restarted it. Started my XCode, added the Apple ID, went to view details in Apple ID's and downloaded the Provisional Profile again and only then it started working!

Answer 2

All you need to do is:

1. go to Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles in the Developer Center

2. create a new provisioning profile in "Provisioning Profiles" / "Distribution"

3. download the profile and open it

4. restart Xcode

Answer 3

I had a similar issue. Found out that the bundle identifier did not match the app id that was on itunes connect - it was capitalized differently. Fixed the issue by making the identifiers match.

Answer 4

In my case, the adhoc provisioning that I wanted to set was not selectable in Code Signing in Build Settings. Though, I created and downloaded the adhoc provisioning from developer store. The answers mentioned here didn't work for me. Fix Issue button in General tab fixed the issue by downloading the required adhoc provisioning file by itself.

Answer 5

Clean your Product Build Folder (with Alt button) Restart Xcode

It solved my same issue

Answer 6

Restarting Xcode solved the problem for me! Restart and/or clean solves 99% of all issues...
