Xcode 5 quits unexpectedly right after I try to Downloading Identities

Asked 21/9, 2013 at 7:6 Answered 28/10, 2013 at 19:29

For some reason with the new Xcode 5, after I 'Validate' my app in the Organizer and attempt to download the identities by connecting to the iOS Dev Center through the organizer, the app closes. A message comes up saying that Xcode has closed unexpectedly. Please help! I feel like I've tried everything.

The profile you are using same as you were using before upgrading Xcode5? – Galarza 21/9, 2013 at 7:8

So you want to validate your app for app store and it is not validating? Is this your problem? – Galarza 21/9, 2013 at 7:33

@Manthan, correct. I'm trying to upload the iOS7 version of my app onto iTunes Connect and connect. I was trying to do it through Xcode by Validating it and then Distributing the app. – Geter 21/9, 2013 at 7:35

Have same problem... Did you solved it? – N 22/9, 2013 at 19:21

You need to refresh certs/prov profiles via XCode > Preferences > Accounts

XCode > Preferences > Accounts > Click on your DEV ACCOUNT > View Details button (bottom right) > Signing Iden/PPs screen appears > hit Refresh.

If error appears saying "no cert found" make sure you chose your dev account.

My email account is ADMIN status. I had clicked on the AGENT one by accident and when I hit refresh it said NO CERTS would I like to refresh. DONT!!

yes XCode crashes if you update PPs on developer.apple.com and then try and Validate in Xcode > Organizer

This is what help for me. I had a certificate which had been revoked and another recreated and I had to refresh within the Preferences > Accounts for it to pick up the changes to the certificates. – Soissons 10/10, 2013 at 12:56

Here's what worked for me:

Revoked my existing certificates (this was probably not necessary)
Had Xcode generate new certificates with Preferences > Accounts > View Details > Reload arrow (this was probably only necessary because I revoked)
Visited http://developer.apple.com > iOS Dev Center > Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles > Provisioning Profiles
Clicked + and added a new App Store provisioning profile
Downloaded the resulting profile and opened it (launches Xcode)

With this new profile, I'm no longer prompted that I have no identities. I've just submitted an app to the App Store with the new provisioning profile. Wish me luck!

You need to create a New Provisioning Profile for distribution to fix it.

Make a new profile and clean and build your code again and Validate it again.

It should work fine.

Hope this solves your problem.

I think you will have to delete the certificate also associated with this. You need to recreate it all again. – Galarza 21/9, 2013 at 8:50

Try using safari instead of firefox. Create a new profile with it. It may work. – Galarza 21/9, 2013 at 8:51

I have same issue. I don't know how to fix it, but I have found a way to avoid this crash. Use Application Loader utility instead of Xcode uploading directly.

well - how do you create an archive from it? – Pentagram 13/10, 2013 at 20:41
