fetching list of teams from developer portal - time out

Question

Trying to export an archive for Ad Hoc distribution but getting stuck with "fetching list of teams from developer portal" that times out in a minute or so and that is it.

Cannot export.

Anybody experienced that?

Answer 1

I've been experiencing this a lot with Xcode 6.4, and OS X Yosemite.

All other applications on my MacBook can happily use the WiFi, but this particular Xcode screen often hangs on the "Fetching list of teams" dialog, before timing out.

My solution: turn WiFi off on your MacBook, then turn it back on again.

Fetching list of teams issue

Suddenly, Xcode bursts into life again, and is able to get the list of teams.

(Sigh.)

Update

Btw, if this doesn't work, reboot your MacBook. That also fixes the problem.

Answer 2

I get this all the time, never saw it before and it started happening about a week ago and now it happens frequently. It looks like something on apple's server causing the problem. Attempts will go through eventually if you keep retrying. Some of the suggestions people are posting aren't actually fixing the issue, they are just doing something random and then retrying again later and it's just luck that it worked.

You can cancel the attempt quickly as when it works it will go through in a second or two, so you don't need to wait for the timeout to try again, just cancel it and retry.

Restarting wifi might help if you are having network problems and seems to fix the issue temporarily for some people.

Hope this helps and Apple fixes it soon.

I think iTunes Connect is having a few issues today. I've had numerous upload issues.
