2 Ad Hoc Distribution profiles with same name listed when I build my ipa

Question

This stuff still confuses me. I added a device to my Ad Hoc profile in the developer portal, downloaded and double clicked the downloaded file. Nothing appeared to hapopen so I went into the Organizer in xCode 5, selected Editor->Provisioning Profiles->Import Profile.

Now when I build my ipa for distribution the profile is listed twice. I picked the first one in the list and discovered that it did not have the new device, so I redid the build, picked the second one and it worked as expected.

I do not understand exactly why I have gotten myself into this situation nor how to remove the old profile.

Here is what my code signing in xcode looks like. Should I delete and start over. If so which ones do I delete?

Thanks,

John

The best way to do this in XCode 5 is using an iPhone Configuration Utility. It lets you manually delete duplicates of provisioning profiles with ease and speed.

I keep Xcode closed when I do this just in case.
