Xcode 7 How to Refresh Provisioning Profiles

Xcode 7 how do you refresh provisioning profiles?

Xcode 7 should automatically refresh your profiles locally when a change occurs to a profile in the Developer Portal. However, you can force this to occur by deleting and re-downloading the profiles.

Begin by opening Xcode's preferences window (Command+,). Select the Accounts tab, and click the "View Details…" button. In the bottom list that appears, Shift+click or click+drag to select the profiles you'd like to refresh. Then, right-click one of the selected profiles, and choose "Move to Trash" from the contextual menu.

Once that's done, the "Download All" button should pull down fresh copies of everything in the Apple Developer portal.

Profiles not deleting? Per feedback in the in the comments below, if you delete a very large number of profiles, Xcode may appear to do nothing, despite having actually removed all of the selected profiles. If you believe that this is the case, it may help to restart Xcode.

Be sure to take care when selecting profiles to delete… if they're not in the portal (e.g., they were supplied by another developer), Xcode can't automatically get them back for you. If you accidentally delete such a profile, you can find it in the Trash.

Hope it helps.

Xcode 7 no longer has a profile refresh button - so how to add new device ids to a profile?

however it seems this is now handled automatically by Xcode and its no longer possible to edit the profiles via the provisioning portal to include the new device

Your premise is false: there is an edit button in the portal for provisioning profiles, if this is a profile that you (not Xcode) created:

So, as you can see, for an ad hoc profile, you can edit and add the device manually.

If all you're trying to do is run on a device directly from Xcode, just run! If there's a problem, Xcode will regenerate the wildcard development profile for you automatically.

How to make Xcode 8.2.1 refresh provisioning profile list ? seems like Xcode bug

I've seen similar issues and I think its an XCode bug also, try the following:

1. Open your provisioning profiles folder(right click on any existing one and show in Finder).

2. Make a back up of existing profiles just in case(select all, compress, etc)

3. Delete those profiles

4. Download all again from XCode and it should work.

Xcode Organizer - cannot refresh Provisioning Profiles list

Try Xcode 5.1. It looks like Apple finally fixed this issue.

How do you update a provisioning profile after adding more people?

Try this process...

In your Developer Account (developer.apple.com)

1. Log in
2. Select the Member Centre
3. Select the section titled Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles
4. Under the section titled iOS Apps, select Devices
5. Check that the new user's device is included in the list.

In Xcode:

1. Select the menu item Xcode > Preferences
2. Select the Preferences tab > Accounts
3. Against your Apple ID used for development, select the button View Details
4. In the Account Details pop-up window, select the refresh icon in the bottom left corner

Your provisioning profiles should be updated, however I have found in the past that this process sometimes does not complete immediately ( a matter of 5 to 15 minutes).
