Distribution Provisioning Profile not installing on device?

Hi,
When I drag my distribution provisioning profile to X-code's organizer, in order to install it on my device, it appears disable-like and I can't check the checkmark... Because of this I can't distribute my app. Any suggestions?
Thanx,

I am having the same problem. The profile in organizer does not get tick marked and remains gray indicating not installed on the device. Everything is working fine for the development provisioning profile. This problem only with distribution provisioning profile. Any solutions to this problem?

Distribution Provisioning Profile not usable?

When I install Distribution provisioning profile - it is disabled in Organizer window in XCode. I can not use it, there is a message "This profile cannot be installed in this device".
Development profiles work fine, problem only with distribution ones.
This problem was discussed here before, but there was no answer in the thread.
Please, help, struggling for few days with it already.

Ok, issue is resolved now.
The problem was - i did not restart XCode after dragging the profile in.
And, yes, it's not getting installed on the device - so unselectable/grayed out in the Organized list of profiles.

Distribution Provisioning Profile - Device ERROR

Hey,
I created a Distribution Provisioning Profile, but somehow, I get an error...
When I click Build and Go I get an alert window: The the device doesn't have provisioning profile the application was signed with. (iPhone SDK 2.2.1)
It's strange, because I have the Development Provisioning Profile on my iPod Touch, but somehow, I can't sign it for distribution.
Can someone tell me, what the mistake is? I created an other Distribution Provisioning Profile maybe 3 months ago, and that worked, so it is really strange, having these problems now.
Thank you very much in advance!

Start over...
Did you create/download all three of these?
• yourapp_nameprofileName.mobileprovision
• distribution_identity.cer
• AppleWWDRCA.cer
Did you keychain access/approve the new distribution certs?
Did you toss all the new k'chained d'certs onto the project?
Did you clone the app's release configuration and rename it 'Distribution'?
Did you select the new 'iPhone Distribution' code sign profile for both instances in the apps's build tab?
Did you close/open the project after the above?
Did you configure the project for device and distribution & build for release in all the right places?
Did you include a 57X57 app icon in png format?
Again, if the error mentions 'device', you still have a 'device' provisioning certificate mixed into the 'distribution' process at some point. Sorry, but I can't tell what you may have done to get to that point, exactly.
In my experience, it is quicker to clean out and start over with fresh distribution certificates, repeating the entire distribution/configuration/build/upload process, step-by-step, than it is to probe for one or more 'things' that may be contributing to the problem.

How to Obtain a Distribution Provisioning Profile from Apple

hi everybody!
I'm searching in the apple.com site where I can register me to obtain a distribution provisioning profile, can anybody help me?
thx!

Hi Angelo, and welcome to the Dev Forum!
A provisioning profile is one of the documents you can obtain at the Developer Program Portal once you're a member of the program. Normally you would first register as an iPhone Developer at the iPhone Dev Center to access the free developer tools and the extensive iPhone Reference Library.
The home page of the iPhone Dev Center includes a link to information about the iPhone Developer Program. Once you decide on the type of membership you require (e.g.: Standard Program $99; Enterprise Program $299), you can proceed to the online application form.
Once you are accepted into the program (the waiting time may vary from less than one day to several weeks), you will obtain access to the Program Portal which provides detailed instructions on how to obtain, install and use the various documents including the provisioning profiles. Note that an iPhone developer does not normally obtain a Distribution Provisioning Profile until completing and thoroughly testing an iPhone app using one or more Device Provisioning Profiles. A Distribution Certificate and Profile is only used when building the version of your app which will be submitted for review and placed in the iTunes Store if accepted.
Hope that helps!

ERROR -- Cannot import distribution provisioning profile

I get an Internal Error and my Xcode crashes when I try to import my distribution provisioning profile.
Here's the message:
Internal Error
Cannot remove an observer <XCRemoteIPhone 0x25ebb00> for the key path "installed" from <XCRemoteIPhoneProvisioningProfile 0x2f75180> because it is not registered as an observer.

Any suggestions?
Please help! Thank you so much for your time.. I've gotten so frustrated with this whole process.

Try using iTunes to import instead. I prefer that because XCode seems to rename the provisions to something cryptic AsdfjAOSDfasdopvAMVDO.mobileprovision whereas iTunes keeps the filename unmodified YourProfileName.mobileprovision. Then if you're browsing the directory to remove a provision you know which one you're removing instead of a confusing filename.
You can test your distribution builds by generating an Ad-Hoc profile which lets you install your distribution app on devices.

Distribution Provisioning Profile Help

Hi,
I have an application that I've already uploaded and is available for sale ( using a distribution provisioning profile ). However, something seems to have happened and when I view my "Build" settings I can no longer see the distribution profile in the drop down for "Code Signing Provisioning Profile"... ( along with my Ad Hoc profile as well ).
My release build profile still shows up fine. I've double and triple checked my "Code Signing Identity" to make sure that it matches my distribution certificate name.
Just as a side note, I also have my distribution project settings setup to use a "dist.plist" file with the correct "get-task-allow" boolean set to false ( unchecked ).
Anyone have any ideas on what I could be doing wrong? Any help would be great! Thanks!

I have the same issue

Distribution Provisioning Profiles won't activate

Hi there,
I am having an issue where my ad Hoc distribution provisioning profiles are not activating,
their status remains "Pending" for quite some time, and then changes to "invalid".
I have followed the instructions to create my distribution certificate which was successful, and
I am at a loss as to why I cannot get my distribution profiles validated.
Any help with this problem would be most appreciated.
Kind regards,
Rob

Hi Rob, and welcome to the Dev Forum!
I don't think I've ever seen what you described, so it's unlikely I'll be of much help. Is there any chance you reused the name of an unexpired profile? This is easy to do, since the Profile Name field of the +Create ... Profile+ form likes to complete your key strokes by filling in an existing name.
Otherwise, you might try posting your question at the member's-only Developer Forums site under iPhone Development->Distribution->iPhone Developer Program Portal: [https://devforums.apple.com/community/iphone/distribution/portal].

Multiple distribution provisioning profile question

Hi Everyone,
As I study the app store structure, I see nothing that stops one from having multiple distribution profiles under the same distribution certificate. Is this a correct assessment? Or does the former distribution profile become disabled once a new one is created?
OK, if I am correct it can be done. What is reason one would want multiple distribution profiles?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

I probabky should be more clear about my problem:
Here is my situation. I just switched machines, but I realize now that my keychain file does not contain my current distribution provisioning profile. I made the p.12 certificate file a couple days before I added the current distribution provisioning profile.
My question, can I simply remove the old distribution provisioning profile from the developer portal and create a new one and select/join it with the same distribution certificate without changing anything else?
And does this affect the apps that are in the store or are they only affected in that I have to rebuild with the new distribution provisioning profile in order to do updates?
My big thing is I do not want to affect apps in the store for my client. Yet right now I cannot submit any apps because I do not have the correct distribution provisioning proile on the new machine and probably no way of getting it. I am getting the infamous "no matching profile in default keychain etc." message.
I do have the correct developmental certificate, distribution certificate, and developmental provsioning profile.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Any idea on why an enterprise provisioning profile would install on an iphone 4s but fail on the new ipad?

Any idea on why an enterprise provisioning profile would install on an iphone but not the new ipad?

As you have suggested yourself, there really isn't a correct answer to the question other than "what would serve your needs".
If you are using cloud services, and iTunes match, you could very well get by with a 16gb. However, you might want to consider how much time you might spend when getting online would be difficult (in the air traveling for example), and what you would want available during those times. My original iPad was a 16GB, and it served me well, but I did opt for 32GB when I upgraded to the New iPad. I don't regret the decision since it gives me more flexibility. BTW, I do use cloud services, including iTunes Match (currently just shy of 17,000 tracks loaded), extensively.

Photoshop Elements9 - ICC profile not installed"

When I try to print a picture I get the error message "ICC Profile not installed"and the printer shoots out a blank page. . I have confirmed that when the image is saved the ICC profile box is checked. I have tried changing the ICC profile via "image/colour management". I am using Dell desktop running Win 7 with 4GB RAM and a Konica Minolta Magicolor 2500W laser printer but have the same problem with my Lexmark X5460 inkjet. Can anyone assist me to solve this problem please

Thanks for the reply
The printer works well with my Serif Photoplus software and with other programs such as MS Word/Excel etc and has done for a couple of years
It is only since I downloaded the Photoshop Elements 9 trial that problems have started
I have checked out the web site you suggested but they only have ICC profiles for Epson and Canon inkjets.
I have checked the Konica-Minolta website but they do not seem to be of much help
I may have to reinstall the printer software or uninstall the Photoshop Elements.
Frankly I am not all that impressed with the black on black interface which gives me a headache and I find the Organiser difficult to work with anyway.
I will try again tomorrow and see if I can solve the problem. If not then I may well upgrade to Serif Photoplus X4 instead.
Regards
Martin

New Distribution Provisioning Profile for Existing App - When Needed?

Sorry for the confusion, but when issuing a new version of an approved app (bug fixes), is a brand new Distribution Provisioning Profile required when for the distribution build prior to uploading to Apple?
If so are there any caveats/gotchas of which we should be aware?
Thank you.

No.
Just make sure to change the version number in the plist, app info, etc. Certs are the same as long as they haven't expired on your end.

Downloading Distribution Provisioning Profiles

Hi all.
I have followed the steps to generate and download the distribution profiles for my applications (two of them), but the "Download" button on the Distribution Provisioning Profiles page of the iPhone Dev Center webpages is an "inactive" button... it won't let me click.
Is there a set amount of time I have to wait before I can download that? I'd really like to get my app in before the distribution cutoff time today...

Basically, yeah.
Thanks to the previous reply, I saw that even though I had renewed previous certificates after the 2008/06/09 date, they had been invalidated, and I needed to re-validate them, and get that all working again first.
it's all good now, and I was able to build and submit my applications.
Thanks!

Provisioning profile not found

Hello, I am a student and I have signed up the Apple Developement Program (the one with annual fee).
After 4/5 months of normal use, I recently opened XCode, and when I bult my app on the device, I got this error:
Code Sign error: a valid provisioning profile matching the application's Identifier 'com.yourcompany.simpleBrowser' could not be found
I have to add that recently I changed the mother board of my mac, I don't know if this is the cause of the problem.
Thank you

Sorry that I have made a mistake. A wrong profile is installed.
Thanks
