Xcode Error Retrieving Developer Info?

Question

I am following this apple doc and trying to add provisioning profiles and signing identities for a new apple-id. The problem is that when I add a new apple-id in Xcode -> Settings -> Accounts I am getting "Error Fetching Developer Info".

This is about all I have found searching around on google. I've restarted Xcode multiple times to no avail. Has anyone encountered this error?

How do I fix this issue?

Answer 1

This is what worked for me.

XCode > Preferences > Accounts

Retype password, then click the General tab.

Then, go back to the Accounts tab. The error disappeared.

I'm guessing there are a number of situations that can cause this issue, just wanted to post what worked for me.
