Question by Hamlet-Archer · Dec 12, 2013 at 05:36 PM ·

"Registering unknown app identifier" after changing ID

Hello. My app was working fine until I changed the App ID from com.company.oldAppName to com.company.newAppName. I changed the bundle identifier settings, and all related settings everywhere, so that a search for "com.company.oldAppName" in the project returned nothing. But when I ran the application, I kept getting the following error:

Dec 1 00:00:30 iPad gamed[88] : Launch Services: Registering unknown app identifier com.company.oldAppName failed Dec 1 00:00:30 iPad gamed[88] : Launch Services: Unable to find app identifier com.company.oldAppName

I've tried deleting the Unity Library folder and reimporting everything, rebuilding the iOS project, removing all project caches in XCode, and regenerating all the provisioning profiles

but somehow, the app still tries to register itself using the old bundle identifier that shouldn't even be in the project anymore. I'm stumped... Please help!

This is the ipad's console log, yes? We've had something like this as well, but it didn't prevent the app from starting or cause any significant issues other than a desync from the server the first time the app is run.

I think the app ID is stored somewhere on the device itself. Are you able to do a system reset on your device and try it again?

You're exactly right! It is indeed the iPad's console log. The app starts normally and there isn't any significant issue. I will try reseting the iPad and report back. Thanks!
