Can't Find Provisioning Profile

Hi Corona Community,

I saw a similar topic, but did find any meaningful answer there, so hence this post.

So I am trying to build for iOS, but can’t find my provisioning profile.

I have…

created a provisioning profile through the apple developer website (status is active),

added the provisioning profile to my device in Xcode,

and restarted Corona Simulator.

Basically I’ve done everything in the provisioning guide, but the provisioning profile still doesn’t appear when building for iOS (all I see is “None”).

Can someone tell me what I’m doing wrong?

Thanks in advance!

Does it say “Unusable Profiles” in the list (and a reason they are unusable)?

For technical clarity, provisioning profiles are stored in the following path:

~/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning Profiles/

I personally never use Xcode to manage them, I download them from the website to my Downloads folder. I then move them to the above path and restart Corona.

But the Xcode system should work for you unless there are certificate or key issues.   Even if you think you have all of that right, remnants of old keys and certificates lurking in Keychain Access can make the profiles appear to be invalid to Corona.

No, it does NOT say “Unusable Profile”; the only option in the drop down menu is “None” (see screenshot).

Also, ~/Library/MobileDevice does not exist. I tried connecting my phone and restarting iTunes and Corona but that didn’t help (see second screenshot).

Do you have any ideas what’s going on?

Thanks,

I would go ahead and make a folder named MobileDevices (no space) and inside there create a folder named “Provisioning Profiles” (with a space).  Go to your developer portal, download your profiles you want to your downloads directory and then move them from ~/Downloads (or wherever your download folder is). Make sure to restart Corona after doing so.

Rob,

Creating a ~Library/MobileDvices/Provisioning Profiles folder worked!  I don’t believe it!

Who would have thought that such an aggressive solution would do the trick! Many thanks!
