I had submitted an version 2.0 of my app for review recently.
It got rejected by apple for a valid reason.
I made the changes and tried to upload a new binary with the same version say 2.0 But it wont upload it via Xcode saying an binary with version 2.0 already exists.
I couldn't find any way to remove the 2.0 rejected build from the Pre-Release tab.
I tried this
reject this binary in new itunes connect UI .
But this did not help either

Thanks in advance.
Cheers.

  • Change version number to `2.0.1`. – Adam Sep 29 '14 at 08:32

    I know this works but this is pathetic. – Nitesh Sep 29 '14 at 08:33
  • No it isn't. You should never create two binaries with the same version number. – Adam Sep 29 '14 at 08:36

    Update build number to 2.1. For more info see here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25788342/how-to-developer-reject-an-app-in-itunesconnect-after-the-sep-2014-changes – Yasika Patel Sep 29 '14 at 08:36
  • How is it pathetic? Version `2.0` wasn't up to standard so you have to do a new build with new fixes so that is a perfectly valid reason for it to become version `2.0.1`. Have a read of software versioning http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_versioning – Popeye Sep 29 '14 at 08:49

    Oftentimes the build on our end IS "up to standard" but due to Apple/XCode/iTunes Connect's constant and ever-morphing numbskullery we are forced to reupload a new version with no actual changes to our codebase just to satisfy their arbitrarily convoluted process. It IS indeed pathetic to mess with our version numbers due to the failings of their own system. – ccjuju Oct 19 '14 at 11:20

You don't need to increase the version number. But increasing the build number should allow you to submit.

Note that this is in the "new" iTunes Connect. The idea being that you can have multiple versions being tested by different groups of people. The unused builds are removed when they expire (note that there's a date attached).

Try increasing the version number and build number then submit the binary

  • I know this works but this is pathetic. Shouldn't we be able to delete the binary and upload a new one instead. Kudos apple!!! – Nitesh Sep 29 '14 at 08:34
  • if you upload a new binary with 2.0 then is no way to distinguish that you uploaded a binary with 2.0 and it got rejected – hariszaman Sep 29 '14 at 08:42
