XCode “Too few items in teams” error when refreshi

Question

I'm trying to build my apps. I've installed the provisioning profiles that my team has set up. I've installed my developer certificate and the WWDR certificate. But when I refresh my provisioning profile library it throws this error:

I have no idea what to do.

Answer 1

Just a quick note if somebody from Mac Develop program lands here:

I'm brand new to Apple development, so, maybe this is a common knowledge, but I didn't ran across.

Signed up for Mac Developer program, not iOS, and tried to "Refresh from Developer Portal" with exact same error: "Too few items in teams." Tried all the steps above and elsewhere, with no success.

Ended up calling their support to only find out that this particular functionality doesn't work with Mac Dev only (no iOS Dev) membership profiles. So, manual download/import is the solution as tech on the phone told me that it looks for iOS teams, doesn't find it and errors out.

Hope this helps & saves a couple of hours of frustration for somebody.

Answer 2

I got the message too: "Too few items in Property/teams/Entity/Developer"

It works now, after adding my account (which is connected with the macbook in itunes and which I used in Xcode) to an "Developer" under "Peoples" at https://developer.apple.com/membercenter/index.action#iPhoneDev

Give it a try.

Answer 3

This happened to me when I use Apple Developer account which does not have valid iOS developer certificate. The certificate is either expired or never bought in the first place.

Once I log in with the valid iOS Developer account, the problem no longer appears.

Answer 5

I still encountered the same issue after following the other answers on this page. Here is what I needed to do to get things working.

Make sure that you have fully accepted the invitation email to join the Apple Developer program. Your account admin can verify your status through the management panel.

1. Click the link inside the "Please verify your email address" email
2. Click the "submit" button to finish registration

Answer 6

Go to developer.apple.com. In the upper right menu area, select "Member Center." Once in the Member Center, select "Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles."

Verify your accounts have not expired; or if new to the program (or renewal) that the order has been processed.
