    I have no problem to sign and build my project from Xcode 8
    problem is building the project from QtCreator:

    this works well for Xcode 7.3 but from Xcode 8.0 something changed with signature and so the build process from QtCreator creates thge Xcode project and then fails with

    Signing for "xxx" requires a development team. Select a development team in the project editor.
    Code signing is required for product type 'Application' in SDK 'iOS 10.0'
    
    make: *** [xcodebuild-debug-iphoneos] Error 65
    12:55:52: The process "/usr/bin/make" exited with code 2.
    

    Opening the xcodeproject there's no development team selected. I can select and build / run on iPhone from inside Xcode 8.

    The run-on-device is broken now. switching back to Xcode 7.3 it works well

    Doing a google search for

    requires a development team. Select a development team in the project editor.
    Code signing is required for product type 'Application' in SDK 'iOS 10.0'
    

    you'll see that many other projects doiung builds with Xcode are broken with Xcode 8

    looking forward to a solution.

      I'm having exactly the same code signing problem. With Xcode 7.3 I can compile my project using QtCreator but with Xcode 8 it doesn't work. I can only compile using Xcode which makes the whole process a lot more complicated since I need both QtCreator (to write my code) and Xcode running at the same time.

      This might seem like a small rpoblem but it is very time consuming. Please, we need a fix for this quickly !

        @Kostas Hi, the forum is not the right place to ask for fixes. You should rather take a look at the bug report system to see if it's something known. If not, please consider opening a new report.

              @ekkescorner Hi, I'm uploaded video where you can see how I fix this problem. On video you can see OS X 10.12 but this also works on OS X 10.11. Please watch video and if you have any questions let me know.

                    You should likely follow the same recommandation as for Xcode 8.

                      @_ovz haven't updated from 8.0 to 8.1 yet. after all the trouble to make Xcode 8 run I'm also waiting to get feedback from others if this update is harmless ;-)

                        No changes from Xcode 8.0 to 8.1. Same recommendations as for 8.0

                                      Hello all, I'm using Qt5.5.1 and xcode8.2.1 and mac os 10.12.2

                                      1. First i faced "Project ERROR: Xcode not set up properly." error i solved it using above solution given at the top.
                                      2. Then i'm facing "Project ERROR: Current iphonesimulator SDK version (10.2) is too old. Please upgrade Xcode." error i go through the video uploaded by mr.shav but i can't able to run to app, showing same error.
                                      3. using cmd xcodebuild -showsdks shows sdk version as -sdk iphoneos10.2.
                                      4. Even i set the "sdk.prf" the line as "lessThan(QMAKE_MAC_SDK_VERSION, “10.2”): "
                                        can't able to run my app..
                                        Is there any other way to solve this problem

                                      Thank you.

                                        Hi and welcome to devnet,

                                        Please update to 5.8 if possible, it should contain the fixes you need and has just been released.
