I have completed my new app and been trying to upload it to the appstore for submission. It is taking forever to upload my new ios app to the app store using the inbuilt organiser in xcode. The app is just 3.3 mb in size yet the screen is stucked on "Your application is being uploaded"... I do not see any progress on the progress bar. Been trying to upload this app since yesterday yet i have no luck here. Is there any problem with the itunes connect server or its just happening to me? Also would like to know is there any alternate way to upload the app to the itunes connect?

Did you "Validate" your project before you attempted to upload it? Jake

Hello Jake, Yes i validated the build before i tried to distribute it. Its been more than half an hour since i have been trying to upload it. Its still stuck at the progress bar...

What version of Xcode are you using? Are you using Mavericks (10.9)? Jake

Xcode v4.6.3 and OS version is 10.7. This is my second ios app so i know the basics. Just dont know why the app is not getting uploaded...

This means that Xcode has not made a connection with the iTunes Connect Server. Have you tried to restart your modem, router, and computer? Jake

Yes, I have tried all those options... Is there any other anternative to upload apps to iTunes Connect?

You could try Application Loader? (Download from iTunes Connect) Jake

Thanks... I will try that. :)

No luck with the application loader as well...

Hey Sandeep, I'm having the same problem. The bar gets stuck for awhile then says the connection was lost. I tried uploading my app multiple times with no luck. Maybe it IS Apple? I would try again in a little bit! Wish I could be more help, but at least (it looks like?) its not just you! Samantha

Hi Samantha, Nice to see you on BT. Greetings from India. I was a bit worried that this happened only with me but now i know that its from apples side. BTW my app got uploaded just few minutes before and now its in line for review. The app got uploaded from xcode using the organiser. The apples server might be down and thats causing this problem.

It once took me like 45 mins to upload one. Didn´t see any activity for a looooong while. Nevertheless, it was working but in sloooow motion.

@Pancho- I had put the file for upload and left off to have my lunch earlier today. When i returned, i found that the binary was submitted.... It took like 35-40 mins i think...

It might also just have been a bad day for your internet provider, or competing demands on your mac in the background such as syncing
