Valid Distribution profiles vanish from the Xcode

Question

Since 2 weeks ago, every time I manually add any Distribution Profiles (Ad-Hoc or AppStore Profiles) to Xcode, they vanish from the Organizer in a matter of minutes, or when I press the Refresh button (the one next to "Automatic Device Provisioning" in Organizer).

How do I solve this problem?

(note that I've already tried to start fresh without success: cleaning KeyChain Access, revoking certificates, deleting profiles, and do it all step by step since the beginning)

Answer 1

I'm now facing such kind of issue, In the previous version of xcode, it works fine, But when I upgrade to 4.3.2, distribution profile missed, tried many ways, but all failed. I have not removed previous version of xcode, but same issue happened. Suggest to not upgrade to latest xcode version, I will pending until facing blocking next time, My product has been delayed because of this issue, what a pity.

Answer 2

If you're not logged in as the "Team Agent" in XCode, that might explain the reason why the distribution provisioning profiles are disappearing.

Which version of Xcode are you using?

Answer 3

I've had this problem for several weeks also. I think this was a bug with Apple's provisioning back-end. Today the Member Center was down for maintenance. When it came back up I did refresh from the organizer and all my Ad Hoc and Distribution profiles were automatically imported (as it should be).

Try a refresh from inside the organizer and see if it works.
