not able to install app on iPhone 5s

I had build an app using xcode 4.6 and base sdk as 6.0

This app is in-house app where I used to send updated provision file after adding UDID.

The client sent me iPhone 5s UDID and I sent him updated provision file.

When he tries to install, it shows app with name. When he click on that app, it says "Installing" and lasts forever.

Any idea why this is happening?

Even I tried this, but still same issue.

Any idea why this happening?


I am able to install on my iPhone 4s/ iOS 7... the problem is with iPhone 5s/ios7

For installing app, below are steps we follow.

  1. I send updated provision file to client based on UDID they send me.

  2. Client drag provision file to iTune

  3. Client drag the iPA file to iTunes App

  4. Client drag the app from iTunes>>App to respective iPhone...

that's it...

This process is working with my iPhone 4s/ iOS 7.

But the problem is faced with only iPhone 5s.


Just now when I tries to add the updated provision file in my xcode, it says "Valid signing identity not found". But it still install app on my iPhone?? I am really confused...

Any idea what is going on?

This is really making me crazy.

I've the same problem and my error was because I was archiving to wrong provisioning profile! You should select the same provisioning profile that's included in your target project under code signing -> provisioning profile.

I was archiving for the iOS Team provisioning profile development and not the one attached with my app ID in apple developer center (and this one also should be the one that included in your project target under code signing)

Happy coding :)

I just faced the very same issue. But I just got it installed on iphone 5 and 5s both.

Here's what i did:

  1. With my testfligtapp account, invited people to beta testing
  2. Added udid on dev account on apple.
  3. Once the device is added, went to iOS provisioning profiles. Selected one of the profiles. Double clicked to edit that profile. Selected ALL devices by putting check on all. (This included a 5S as well) Saved and downloaded the provisioning profile.
  4. On testflightapp, went to apps - double clicked on the build - update profile (uploaded the new profile, as downloaded from apple account)

Verified the apps are now accessible thru testflightapp.com on both 5 and 5S.

Are you sure you have the correct UDID for him? How did he obtain it? If he got his UDID using one of the many apps on the App Store, they no longer give the correct UDID on iOS 7+. You'll find the last bunch of digits will all be FFFFFF

How is your client installing? We've seen that some web servers seem to cause install problems with iOS. He should first try to install the IPA file through iTunes or iPhone Configuration Utility and see if that works. If it does, try switching to a different web server for hosting the IPA file.

If this does not help, have him connect his phone to a Mac and take a look at the console output, if SpringBoard throws any errors that may shed light on why install stalls.

There might be a gap in the architectures but i'm not sure is the app setting set for arm7 and arm7s. Keep in mind iPhone 5s is on 64 bits follow this guidelines to update you project settings
