I've just enrolled in the Apple dev program, but when trying to create an APP ID in the Member center, I receive this message:
An App ID with Identifier is not available. Please enter a different string.
Before enrolling, I was using the same account (but not part of the developer program), and building my app for my own phone.
I'm 200% sure this bundle ID is not taken by anyone else but me.
How is that possible in such case? Can XCode register an APP ID by itself ? I also notice an app id called "XC Wildcard" which is defined for any id "*"
I'm really kind of lost, so any help would be really apreciated. Thanks!

An app ID is a unique ID number assigned to your apps when they're added to AdMob. The app ID is used to identify your apps. An ad unit ID is a unique ID number assigned to each of your ad units when they're created in AdMob. The ad unit ID is added to your app's code and used to identify ad requests from the ad unit.
iOS. An iOS application's store ID number can be found in the iTunes store URL as the string of numbers directly after id . For Example, in https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/urbanspoon/id284708449 the ID is: 284708449 .
An "App ID" is a unique identifier that iOS uses to allow your application to connect to the Apple Push Notification service, share keychain data between applications, and to communicate with external hardware accessories you wish to pair to your iOS application.
This happened to me and it is because I had accidentally assigned the App ID to my personal account instead of my team account because I had automatically manage signing ticked in XCode. The error message means the ID has been taken and can't be used on your team account now.
You need to remove the App ID from your personal account, however because this is a free account you don't have access to do this so you need to contact Apple Developer Support and request that the App ID is to be removed from your personal account.
I called and they sorted it whilst I was on the phone. I was then able to setup the App ID with my team account. Don't forget to ask them to delete all versions of the App ID, for example, if you also have a .dev and .staging version of the same ID.

This one looks weird but this worked for me.
At first I had an App ID with Name "My App" with identifier "com.mycompany.myapp". I got the same error
"An App ID with bundle identifier X is not available. Please enter a different string"
when I tried to export. But then I changed my App ID's name to "XC com mycompany my app" and left everything as it as. It worked now.
