Question

Answer 1

Delete your provisioning profiles, do a 'Clean All', make sure that your provisioning setting are correct, redownload, and try to run again.

Answer 2

Just putting in my 5 cents here. For me none of the above worked, so I was forced to stress down and actually look at every part of the process with fresh eyes.

In rushing this I forgot that I was trying to install my app on a totally new device.

So my error was that I hadn't updated my provisioning profile by ticking off my new device int the "Devices" section of the provisioning profile setup in the Provisioning Portal.

Apparently not including your device in the provisioning profile also generates this error message.

Answer 3

1. Open 'iOS Provisioning Portal' in Safari.
2. Tap 'Devices' in the sidebar.
3. Register your device's UDID
4. Tap 'Provisioning Profiles'
5. Edit your apps profile.
6. Select the device your have just added.
7. Download the .mobileprovision file.
8. Install it.
9. Build again.

Answer 4

If you didn't change anything related to certificates (didn't replace or update them) just do a Product -> Clean. It helped me several times. (Xcode 6.2)

Answer 5

Upgrading to XCode 4 fixed the issue.

Answer 6

For me check the "Automatically manage signing" option in Target solve the problem!
