Question

I have been stuck on this for hours..I downloaded the certificate from my developer account, I also downloaded the WWDR intermediate certificate. When I click Import Developer Profile from inside xcode all of these certificates are greyed out.. Any ideas?

You can import Developer profile into Xcode which file have a .developerprofile extension which was exported by Xcode. Xcode->Preference->Account->[SETTING ICON]->Export Accounts.

From xcode 6.x, Xcode export ipa only with distribution certificate. So you must have valid distribution certificate install in keychain.

If you setup developer certificate and trying to export then

if distribution certificated is not created in developer portal ,then xcode will automatically create it.

if distribution certificated is already created by other mac , and you have not install in your mac then Xcode will give message "Your account already has a valid iOS Distribution certificate"

Then You can either install Distribution certificate by .p12 file exported by keychain from old mac OR by .developerprofile extension. exported by xcode from old mac OR Revoke Existing Certificate and create new one and install

Then Remove account from xcode and add it again. Then try again to build.
