Provisioning Profiles menu item missing from Xcode 5

Question

After spending a whole day installing a fresh copy of Mac OS X v10.8 (Mountain Lion), Xcode 5, fixing provisioning profiles, certificates, creating new ones,

Answer 1

These settings have now moved to Preferences > Accounts:

Answer 2

Try this:

Xcode >> Preferences >> Accounts

Answer 3

Xcode 5 lost my Mac Provisioning Profile while the one for iOS was present. The tips elsewhere helped solve the problem; this is what I did, because I noticed the lists were too short and did not include *Mac Team Provisioning Profile: **

1. Xcode menu => Preferences => Accounts
2. Select the Apple ID in the left panel.
3. Click the View Details button on the right.
4. In the pop-over that follows click the round refresh arrow. The lists will refresh after the download from the Member Center finishes. This can take a few minutes.
5. The provisioning profiles can then be selected in a Mac project under Build Settings => Code Signing => Provisioning Profile.

Answer 4

Provisioning files are located in:

/Users/${USER}/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles/

Just remove the out-of-date files.

Answer 5

If you like to manually manage your profiles (mostly to clean up):

• Open Windows/Devices in Xcode 6
• Select your device
• Show Provisioning Profiles:
• 
• You'll get + and - buttons to add/remove profiles:
•

No longer supported ... you can also download Apple's iPhone Configuration Utility 3.5 for Mac OS X, it still has "Provisioning Profiles" and works with Xcode 5 -- it's now gone from Apples site but you can find an alternative download link in @suda's comment.

Answer 6

After searching a few times in google, i found one software for provisioning profiles.

Install this iPhone configuration utility software and manage your all provisioning profiles in MAC.
