ERROR ITMS - 90167 No. app bundles found in the package

Question

Before I start writing about the error, I\'m running on macOS Sierra and using Xcode 7.3.1.

So I\'m creating an Archive from my App, I validate the App and it passes

Answer 1

The privacy settings are changed for iOS 10, more on this could be read here

I had previous described issues, which had to be solved as described, but after successful upload application wasn't visible on iTunes connect.

I had to add Privacy - Bluetooth Peripheral Usage Description key in a plist in order to solve the last one. Other missing keys will make the same problem.

Answer 2

With me, my application writing by Swift 2.2. And must use Xcode 7.3.1 to archive and upload to Apple testflight but got the same error(I run on macOS Sierra-10.12). The follow solution fix it for me, hope another who face the same problem can find somethings helpful:

1> Use Xcode 7.3.1 to archive
2> Export to file .ipa
3> Quit Xcode 7.3.1 then open Xcode 8, and then open Application Loader, use Application Loader to upload file .ipa to itunes connect.

Answer 3

I recently upgraded to macOS Sierra and also received this error message. After uploading through the application loader failed.I downloaded Xcode 8 (kept my 7.3.1 copy). Closed Xcode 7.3.1. Opened Xcode 8-> Organizer-> proceeded to validate and upload my build. It worked. Hope this helps someone in a similar situation.

Answer 4

I accidentally opened an old version of the Application Loader Version 3.5 (921) and got the error ITMS-90167 no app bundles found. Be sure you open the Application Loader over the menu of Xcode (Xcode->Open Developer Tool). Version 3.6 (1020) works like a charm! :)

Answer 5

According to @Fan Zhang answer follow these steps and you can upload this archive use Xcode or Application Loader, whatever you want!

When you archived your app, find your archive in the Organizer, and then:

-->"Show in finder";
-->"Show package contents";
-->In the "xx.xcarchive" file, find the "Products"->"Applications"->"xx.app"(xx is your app's name), "Show package contents" again;
-->Finally, you can see there has a file named"Info.plist", open it;
Edit the value with a key named "BuildMachineOSBuild", I just change it to "15F34"(it's "EI Capitan 10.11.5" 's version);

Answer 6

Unable to process application at this time due to the following error: No .app bundles found in the package. This issues appear when your pc's space is less. So clear you trash or some useless document from you pc. Then let's try again! It's work for me!
