I just wanted to add a thread on Xcode issues, and viewer problems, as I've probably encountered just about every single issue known to man :)

"A valid provisioning profile for this executable was not found."

When in doubt, google the error message that comes up! I googled the error message and this link popped up on the very first search line. I followed the instructions, and was able to resolve the issue within minutes.

Also visit the Apple SDK forums, and other developer forums, type in the pertinent part of the error message, and you'll find others are in the same boat with you on xcode issues.

I had this issue last night, and discovered that I had the wrong developer provisioning profile installed in my keychain. Make sure in your keychain access which can be found under the utilities section in applications, that you only have 1 developer provisioning profile, and 1 distribution provisioning profile.

Additionally, if you've signed up for the Mac Developer program, you should have 2 additional certificates.

1) 3rd party mac developer installer, and 2) 3rd party mac developer application

Hope this helps, and I hope to be able to add other Xcode error messages with links to their resolutions in this thread!
