invalid code signing app submission

Question

Im trying to submit an app to the app store and Im getting the following error. Ive seen similar problems posted & 2 different solutions suggested but neither of them have solved the issue.

"Invalid Code Signing Entitlements - The signature for your app bundle contains entitlement values that are not supported. Specifically, value "42Q68FE326.*" for key "com.apple.developer.ubiquity-kvstore-identifier" is not supported."

I've seen 2 different responses to this issue -- that it either relates to the iCloud being enabled or that it relates to there being as asterisk/wildcard in the app id.

I created a distribution profile that doesn't have the wildcard/asterisk in it -- but iCloud is still enabled. There doesn't seem to be a checkbox to disable it…?

In the Xcode project, I set the code signing identity to the non-asterisk/wildcard distribution profile -- although in the Xcode organizer under provision profiles, the earlier profiles are still there -- including an 'iOS Team Provisiong Profile' with a status of 'valid signing identity not found'.

Im not sure if Im getting this error because this profile is still there and I need to change something else within the Xcode settings -- or if the problem still exists in the distribution profile itself and it relates to either the iCloud setting or the asterisk that I originally set up the app id with.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

It seems that Apple messed things up yesterday. Just disable iCloud for your app and regenerate your certificates and everything should work!
