How to Remove/Disable Provisioning Profile Expiration Warning

Solution 1

iPCU no longer works for me and from what I can tell is deprecated. For XCode 6.1 I was able to delete specific provision profiles from devices under Window > Devices:

Solution 2

On your iphone Go to Settings, then General, then scroll down until you see the name of the offending provision, the click it and chose delete. :)

Solution 3

I have run into this problem as well. The best way to remove them, without XCode installed, is to use the iphone configuration utility. You can download this for Mac or PC. Your device must be plugged in in order to do this.

Here is a picture of using the iphone configuration utility to delete provisioning profiles:

Note that this is not the only way.

If you have XCode installed, I would recommend using organizer to delete the provisioning profiles. In Organizer, select the "Devices" list. Then choose your device (must be plugged in). Then choose "Provisioning Profiles" under your device. From here you can make multiple selections (hold shift key) and then hit delete key to remove them.

    I have a few provisioning profiles on my iPhone/iPad device.

    Every day it annoys me with the following messagebox:

    "Provisioning Profile Expiration: The provisioning profile X will expire in Y days" With two buttons: "Show Me" and "Remind Me"... regardless what I pick it'll pop up within another day or so.

    Is there a way to disable these warnings? I don't want to see them at all!

    Thanks

    It could be removed without iphone configuration utility.. Settings->General->Profiles

    @Nekto I know, but I've found that using the iphone configuration utility is faster. Note that my answer indicates there are multiple ways to remove provisioning profiles: (not the only way). I think they can be removed in organizer as well. Actually, organizer might be the best way since it looks like it allows multiple selection.

    This doesn't even attempt to answer the question that was asked.
