Can't install Provisioning Profiles on iPhone (iOS 8 beta 4 / Xcode 6 Beta 4)

Question

I can\'t install any of my iOS developer distribution or developer linked provisioning profiles onto my iPhone 5S running iOS beta 4 with Xcode beta 4 on OS X Yosemite dev previ

Answer 1

Xcode is correct - the profiles are on your device and you can confirm this by installing and trying to run an app that relies on one of those profiles. The reason you're not seeing the provisioning profiles on the Profiles page is that iOS 8 no longer exposes provisioning profiles through the user interface.

Answer 2

I understand that this is old question, but I encountered exactly same problem, tons of Provision profiles from old experimentation and was searching hours how to remove them and I found a solution which I share for any developers that need it in future. Solution is suitable for iOS 9 and XCode 7 (I believe for iOS 8 also).

1. Using App Store install Apple Configurator 2 on your Mac.
2. Run it and connect mobile phone.
3. Double click iPhone or iPad or any other device and switch left menu to Profiles to check is there any really present.
4. If Yes, the go back and Right click the device, choose menu Remove->Profiles.
5. Now very carefully check and select which profiles you do not need and click Remove Profiles

I can confirm, that there is nothing to see from user interface of the device, only special tools can show real view.

I hope this will save hours to others.

Answer 3

I had this same problem last night and this morning. I am using xcode 6 beta 4, ipad mini ios 8 beta 4, iphone 5 ios 8 beta 4.

Go to developer.apple.com go to your certificates, revoke your current development certificate. create a new one and download it. shut down xcode. and drag and drop your newly downloaded certificate into xcode on your dock. let xcode open.

to make sure your certificates are properly loaded, go to xcode/preferencecs/accounts/view details to see if the certificates & provisioning profiles are there.

if all looks good so far, then clean your project, build it and then run it on your iOS device.
