Unable to Download 'AppName' could not be downloaded at this time

I have an enterprise app that I'm distributing via OTA. When I try to install it I get this error from Xcode Device Log :

 LoadExternalDownloadManifestOperation: Canceling failed manifest
 download for replace: [MyBundleID]
 [MIClientConnection uninstallIdentifiers:withOptions:completion:]: 
 Uninstall requested by itunesstored (pid 2029) for identifier MyBundleID with options:

Device Error Message

This is my manifest.plist file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

            </dict>
        </dict>
    </array>

</plist>

Any help will be greatly appreciated

Please make sure of options while exporting archive to create .IPA file. Use either "Save for Ad Hoc Deployment" or "Save for Enterprise Deployment". I faced same error "Unable to Download App could not be downloaded at this time" when I used option "Save for iOS App Store Deployment" to create .IPA file and tried to install the app through a website.

For anyone trying to get more information on why this happened:

  • connect your iDevice to your Mac
  • "Trust" your Mac on your iDevice
  • Open console.app on your Mac
  • On the left, select your iDevice under "Devices".
  • To clear the noise, on the top-right search for: "process:appstored" without the quotes.

In my case the problem was that I haven't confirmed iCloud password when prompted. So make sure you confirm iCloud password and also restart device and try again. Hope it will help someone.

This question has a solution for the same error message. "Unable to download application. <Appname> could not be installed at this time"

I have suffered from this issue as well. In my case, there was a problem with the certificate on the device. I had to remove it and reinstall.
