I have a team I was added to for development
XCode refuses to do it's job. It literally only displays 3 teams, and it refuses to acknowledge the fact that it's missing one of the development teams I am on.
All I want to do is test this damn app.
I have tried the following:
Signing out and back in
Clearing the cache at ~/Library/Caches/com.dt.XCode or whatever
Clearing the cache at ~/Library/Support/XCode or whatever I really can't be bothered to remember, seeing as how they didn't matter
I have tried searching high and low, manually installing certificates, I nuked my keychain after logging out and then restarted, logged back in, STILL NOTHING.
I genuinely don't know what to do, and it's so frustrating because this is like, an issue I should have in 2005, not in 2025.
Syncing a team from an account should not be something I have to search high and low for, find no answers, and then end up here, posting, when it's literally a GET/POST request.
If I am doing something wrong, lord knows what it is. I can sign my other apps no problem.

I am trying to set up code signing for my macOS/Tauri app and I’m running into a problem with my Developer ID Application certificate in Keychain Access.
Steps I followed:
Generated a CSR on my Mac using Keychain Access → Certificate Assistant → Request a Certificate From a Certificate Authority.
Uploaded the CSR to the Apple Developer portal.
Downloaded the resulting .cer file and installed it in my login Keychain.
The certificate appears under All Items, but it does not show under My Certificates, and there is no private key attached.
What I expected:
The certificate should pair with the private key created during CSR generation and show under My Certificates, allowing me to export a .p12 file.
What I’ve tried so far:
Verified that the WWDR Intermediate Certificate is installed.
Ensured I’m on the same Mac and same login Keychain where I created the CSR.
Revoked and regenerated the certificate multiple times.
Tried importing into both login and system Keychains.
Problem:
The certificate never links with the private key and therefore cannot be used for signing.
Has anyone experienced this issue or knows why the certificate would fail to pair with the private key in Keychain Access? Any workaround or fix would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
My project fails to build/run on a physical device or archive, due to a persistent provisioning error.
Exact Error: Provisioning profile "iOS Team Provisioning Profile: com.huiwan.Ohra-Journal" doesn't include the BGTaskSchedulerPermittedIdentifiers entitlement.
I have already performed extensive troubleshooting, and all local configurations appear to be correct:
Capabilities: "Background Modes" with the "Background processing" option is enabled in the target's "Signing & Capabilities" tab.
Info.plist: The Permitted background task scheduler identifiers key is present in the target's Info.plist, and it contains the correct task identifier (com.huiwan.ohra-journal.refresh).
Entitlements File: The .entitlements file is correctly configured by Xcode.
Full Reset: I have tried a complete reset procedure, including deleting ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData and ~/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles/, restarting Xcode, and letting the automatic signing system regenerate the profile from scratch. The issue persists.
Despite all these correct local settings, the provisioning profile automatically generated by Xcode is consistently missing the required entitlement. This strongly suggests a server-side issue with the provisioning service for my App ID (com.huiwan.Ohra-Journal).
I filed a bug report on the Feedback Assistant (FB20268285) a week ago but have not received a response. This issue is completely blocking my development and ability to submit the app.
Could you please investigate the status of my App ID and the provisioning services associated with it?
Thank you.

Hi,
I am developing a iOS app with Packet Tunnel Provider Network Extension. I manage signing manually. I created a distribution provisioning profile. Then when I archive and click "validate" I get this error:
Your application bundle's signature contains code signing entitlements that are not supported on iOS. Specifically, value 'url-filter-provider' for key 'com.apple.developer.networking.networkextension'
So I run security cms -D -i profiles/vpn_distribution.mobileprovision and I see there
<key>Entitlements</key>
<dict>
<key>com.apple.developer.networking.networkextension</key>
<array>
<string>app-proxy-provider</string>
<string>content-filter-provider</string>
<string>packet-tunnel-provider</string>
<string>dns-proxy</string>
<string>dns-settings</string>
<string>relay</string>
<string>url-filter-provider</string>
<string>hotspot-provider</string>
</array>
Where are those coming from. My entitlement file has
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>com.apple.developer.networking.networkextension</key>
<array>
<string>packet-tunnel-provider</string>
</array>
<key>com.apple.security.application-groups</key>
<array>
<string>group.my-app-group</string>
</array>
</dict>
</plist>
What is happening here. How can I get a provisioning profile that only has the entitlements that I actually need?
Hi everyone,
We're trying to prepare a DriverKit App for a client test, and we've run into an unavoidable signing conflict that seems to be caused by the Xcode Archive process itself.
Background & Environment:
Environment: macOS 15.6.1, Xcode 16.4
Our project consists of a main App Target and a DEXT Target.
Both the Debug and Release configurations for both targets are set to Xcode's default: Automatically manage signing.
Our developer account holds a valid, active Developer ID Application (With Kext) certificate, which we use for signing our legacy KEXT.
The Action That Triggers Failure:
From this clean state, we execute Product -> Archive.
The Archive process fails during the signing validation phase and presents the following three errors, completely halting the process:
There is a problem with the request entity - You already have a current Developer ID Application Managed (With Kext) certificate...
No profiles for 'com.company.Acxxx.driver' were found...
No profiles for 'com.company.Acxxx.app' were found...
This error seems to indicate that the Xcode Archive process:
Ignores the project's Release configuration (even the default 'Auto' setting).
Attempts to automatically create a new, standard Developer ID certificate for us.
This action conflicts with the existing (With Kext) certificate in our account, causing the entire Archive process to fail.
The "Failed Experiment" to Resolve This:
To work around this automation conflict, we tried the solution: configuring a fully manual signing process for the Release configuration to explicitly tell Xcode to use our existing KEXT certificate.
Our Steps: We disabled automatic signing for both the App and DEXT targets for the Release configuration and manually assigned the Developer ID Provisioning Profiles created for our Developer ID (With Kext) certificate.
The New Problem: After doing this, the Signing Certificate field for the DEXT Target's Signing & Capabilities interface now shows None, accompanied by the misleading warning about needing a DriverKit development profile.
The Outcome: This None issue now prevents us from even starting the Archive process, as the project fails to build due to the incorrect signing configuration. We've tried every debugging step — including rebuilding profiles, validating the keychain, and clearing caches — but nothing resolves this None issue.
Our Dilemma:
State A (Fully Automatic Signing): The Archive process fails due to the KEXT certificate conflict.
State B (Manual Release Signing): The project fails to build due to the Signing Certificate: None issue, preventing us from initiating an Archive.
For a development team holding a KEXT Developer ID certificate, how should an Xcode project be configured when migrating to DriverKit, so that the Archive process:
Does not trigger the flawed automation logic that attempts to create a new certificate?
And, does not fall into the Signing Certificate: None configuration trap?

Hi
First, I hope I'm in the right place, I'm not certain. I'm having my first attempt at IOS development and want to see the progress I've made on my phone. I plugged it in to my Mac and selected it as a preview device and got the following messages in the Signing & Capabilities screen:
Your team has no devices from which to generate a provisioning profile. Connect a device to use or manually add device IDs in Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles. https://developer.apple.com/account/
No profiles for '...' were found: Xcode couldn't find any iOS App Development provisioning profiles matching '...'.
My account and personal team are shown in the Xcode settings, but it says 0 Provisioned Devices. I also tried restarting, and enabled developer mode on the phone. I checked the provided link, but saw nowhere to add a device ID. Clearly I don't understand what I'm doing. Can anyone help me make sense of this?

I can create an ipa file with vs using the wildcard bundle identifier but this is rejected by apple when I upload with the Transporter app saying invalid identifier and no distribution profile/certificate. When I create a new distribution profile with the correct XC identifier and distribution certificate and try to archive with visual studio publish says the bundle id is not a match for the distribution profile with iOS? This is a net 10 net maui project and my first build attempt
From my developer account, when I generate CSR and submit for certificate generation private key not available and loaded into keychain
I just made a TikTok account accidentally using my Apple ID I’m trying to delete the account and the only way to delete it is to put this code in I don’t know where to look for the code and apparently it was sent to my private relay.appleid.com.
Where is my redeem code
I want to run a nap. I'm developing on my actual iPhone previously. I have been able to do this but the phone is now missing from two computers. It appears in devices and simulators on both machines.
I get these errors. I think I've checked everything possible.
"entitlements file, Identifiers etc."
but I couldn't find a solution. I tried manual signing as well. Same result.
The profiles I added also become invalid after a while.
Everything seems normal in my developer account.

I get the error message in Xcode signing certificate
Provisioning profile "iOS Team Provisioning Profile: com.example.app" doesn't include the pushkit entitlement.
I have push notifications ticked in my Identifier in the online developer account. There is no other dedicated pushkit capability available to select.
Push notifications, time sensitive notifications and background mode-> voice over ip are added as capabilities in the Xcode project.
The team provisioning profile for the app states under its enabled capabilities: both push notifications and time sensitive notifications.
Is pushkit part of another capability that I need to select?
I have read the guide below and it just says to add the push notification capability. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/pushkit/supporting-pushkit-notifications-in-your-app
I have gone round and round in circles trying to get this profile to work for this, so any pointers would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Hello,
I get this message when building from a .net maui app. I think I followed all the steps. I've downloaded my provisioning profile from developer.apple.com and my instructions (you tube) said to double click it and XCode will open. It does that but I don't see where the provisioning profile goes in xCode. I followed another link which told me to delete everything in /Users/username/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles and after doing that I don't see any files reappearing when I click the provisioning profile from finder. Did I mess myself up following internet articles again?
I'm running XCode Version 16.2 (16C5032a) under accounts I can see my appleid linked but I don't see the provisioing profile I loaded.
Sorry very new at Mac development (and kinda cheating using Maui)
Save me apple gods,
Steven

I am having the most difficult time trying to figure out the process for just getting my development .p12 figured out. Full disclosure, being a windows user does not make my life any easier. Seems fairly straightforward on a mac (which I do not have) So I thought I would come here and see if I could collect information on getting working certs and keys on windows pc.
Here's what I have so far:
-OpenSSL
-openssl req -nodes -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout private_key.key -out cer_sign_request.csr
Generates a key and a sign request.
went to dev portal submit CSR --> recieved CER
-back to OpenSSL
-openssl x509 -in ios_development.cer -inform DER -out ios_development.pem -outform PEM
CER-->PEM
-openssl pkcs12 -export -inkey keyname.key -in ios_development.pem -out ios_development.p12
-"No cert in -in file 'ios_development.pem' matches private key"
so here I am. Lost. Mind you I've tried the process in a few different ways and now I am on a mission to find my "private_key" somehow with no way to access keychain. I dunno feels convuluted. for good reason I am sure.
If anyone has a streamlined version of how to get this done I will be forever indebted to you. Your time is greatly appreciated.
for futher context I am just trying to get an eas build on my phone from expo. Thankyou!

I am attempting to sign a *.pkg for distribution but I get "Could not find appropriate signing identity for 'Developer ID Application: CompanyName'.
I'm calling this command to sign:
productsign --sign 'Developer ID Application: CompanyName' "unsigned.pkg" "signed.pkg"
I've downloaded the WWDR Intermediates, when I go through Keychain Access > Certificate Assistant > Evaluate on the cert and select "Code Signing" I get "Evaluation Status: Success" and "Certificate Status: Good". Additionally my certificate shows up as valid in my keychain. I'm at a loss for what is going on.

Im trying to compile a free app from GitHub for personal use but i cant sign it since everytime im getting the same error "0 identities found".
I have added my Apple ID to Xcode accounts, but in manage certificates, it shows "status not in keychain".
On keychain access > login, it doesn’t show any Apple dev certificate obviously, and when I run security find-identity in terminal, I get a 0 identities found, 0 valid identities found.
I don’t know where to begin, every tutorial I find requires downloading a certificate from Apples Dev website but my account is a free developer, not paid. A few months ago I was able to compile this same app so I know I don’t need a paid dev account.
Any help appreciated.
