Xcode 12.5 "code signature version is no longer supported"

After upgrading to Xcode 12.5 and iOS 14.5, I can no longer debug my app on my local physical device.

I get the below error.

I searched and cannot find any answers.

How do I fixed this?

Same problem.
I think its a bug from Xcode same One here, If somebody find Solution tag me :)
Did you try to unregister the device on Xcode and register again ?
try this way:
go to the TARGETS -> select[your project name] -> General -> Frameworks,Libraries,and EmbeddedContent -> set the framework with [Do Not Embed]

I had to **** DerivedData. I tried both of the before mentioned things so I don't know which one worked.
Hey after struggling with this for an hour or two, I found that in your apple developer account, under 'Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles' > profiles > provisioning profiles, I needed to add the device I was using to test on in there, it takes you through steps. At the end you download a file (file will be named whatever you choose), when downloaded, double click the file and....magic, it works. I've never had this issue until I moved up to Xcode 12.5. Hope it helps.

What’s the output of this command for your app, and any other bundles in your app (ie frameworks, app extensions, etc)?

Code Block
codesign -dv /path/to/MyApp.app


The output of codesign -dv /path/to/MyApp.app:

Thank you this was my solution to the issue, this error comes out very often regardless of the Xcode version

@narlei_moreira is there a framework in your app as well? What's returned for all the frameworks and app extensions in your app bundle?

This worked for me! Thank you Copper Gaga
If your apps actually require this embedded content, then removing it may break your release build. Does the framework that's causing this issue have an old signature? You may just need to re-sign it, as explained here.
I had this issue and found the solution. It's not about Xcode 12.5, but running on a device with iOS 14.5+.

My project was embedding 2 static frameworks (see @idelfonso answer) and the issue was fixed when I changed them to [Do Not Embed].

However, the correct answer here is not to [Do Not Embed] every framework you have, as you actually need to embed dynamic frameworks, your app will crash upon launch otherwise.

Use 'file' command line to find out if the framework is dynamic or static. For example:

Code Block bash
file Frameworks/Flutter.framework/Flutter
Frameworks/Flutter.framework/Flutter: Mach-O universal binary with 3 architectures: [x86_64:Mach-O 64-bit dynamically linked shared library x86_64] [arm_v7] [arm64]
Frameworks/Flutter.framework/Flutter (for architecture x86_64): Mach-O 64-bit dynamically linked shared library x86_64
Frameworks/Flutter.framework/Flutter (for architecture armv7): Mach-O dynamically linked shared library arm_v7
Frameworks/Flutter.framework/Flutter (for architecture arm64): Mach-O 64-bit dynamically linked shared library arm64


As you can see, in this example Flutter is dynamically linked and therefore needs to be embedded. If 'file' doesn't give any hint that a framework is dynamic, then it's static and should not be embedded.

Embedding static frameworks is wrong because their code is already merged into the final binary. For some reason it was "ok" to do that before iOS 14.5.

Hope this helps.
I think the problem is with the device. Can't run the app on my daily driver but runs fine on a second device.

We use 2 static library in our project. Once the libs were added via "Build Phases > Link Binary with Libraries", they are shown in the "General > Frameworks, Libraries and Embedded Content".

Unlike other frameworks, there is NO "Do Not Embed" option for these 2 static libs. So my guess is they are embedded into the final binary without code signing?

And the problem is only found on the iOS 14.5+ devices.
