New iTunes connect interface error “You must choose a build”

Question

When trying to submit my new app to the app store, I noticed Apple has changed its website interface: after updating metadata and keywords and hitting \"submit for review\" I go

Answer 1

iTunes Connect have scrapped the "Waiting For Upload" state. The first sate is now "Prepare for Submission" and the next "Waiting For Review": https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/LanguagesUtilities/Conceptual/iTunesConnect_Guide/Chapters/ChangingAppStatus.html

Both meta-data and binary upload are handled in "Prepare for Submission". When you're ready with both you Submit for Review.

Answer 2

I uploaded a binary and still I cannot choose it.

When I clicked on Prerelease I could see that the binary is listed and when I pointed to the ? it says

After builds are uploaded they will go through a processing status before they can be used.

So I guess Apple has introduced a new step into the process, and we must wait for it to complete.

Answer 3

Just visiting the Prerelease tab and then navigating back to the Versions tab for some reason then displayed the "+" symbol on the Build section.

I waited ~45 minutes to see if it would happen automatically, but that's what worked for me.

Answer 4

scroll down window you will see build header select your uploaded build wait for moments it will enable the save option save and then click submit thats all

Answer 5

Just a call out. Make sure that your package identifier i.e. (com.companyname.appname) is correct for the app you are uploading. I just wasted 2 days wondering why my build wasn't showing up because I had a typo in my bundle identifier.

Thanks and have a wonderful day.

Answer 6

I had the same issue: The Add link was not visible using Firefox v32. My solution might work for others as well:

1. Inspect the DOM with your browser developer tools and locate the anchor element in the DOM with the inner text Add.

2. For this anchor elmenent, remove all classes (text in the element's class attribute, that is), in order to make the element visible in the browser.

3. Click the add link.

4. Choose the binary you've (probably) already uploaded.

5. Click save in the top right corner, then Submit for review.

Pretty hard core that you have to hack the DOM in order to submit an app!
