The best solution is indeed Application Loader  I can t comment on Naresh s note on this  I m too much of a newbie to StackOverflow   but am warning you that if you are using Swift  don t the use Xcode ipa generation system  I prefer manual creation of the IPA by   1  zipping 2 folders   a Payload folder that contain your  app and a SwiftSupport folder that you can copy from your Xarchive   2  rename the zip to  ipa

I am quite sure that Xcode wants us to be logged in with our  normal  account to the App Store app when it tries to upload an app to the Mac App Store  MAS  via the Organizer window   Usually  we developers all test our apps using our MAS test account  This seems to switch the logged App Store user  too  For me  this always works fine    Log in to the App Store app with your normal account  Retry the upload via the Xcode Organizer  Should then work like expected

I had this problem over and over again  No descriptive description  just the error message that OP posted   In fact  it was a problem with the build and so had nothing to do with Apple s servers at all  as you might think   The solution was to go to Organizer and Export the build  then upload it via Application Loader  Here I got the correct error messages  In my case  it was a problem with CocoaPods breaking app extension validations  I solved this and then I could upload my build   Hope this helps someone like me

Tested in Xcode 7 3  04142016   Instead of clicking the blue Upload to App Store    button from the Organizer or while Archiving  Xcode offers a better tool to do this  but it is a little hidden and the process is not clear how to use it   Here is what I documented while submitting our latest iOS application to the App Store   First  do NOT use the blue Upload to App Store    button   From Xcode s Xcode  Developer Tools  menu  select Application Loader   Sign in with appropriate credentials that allow you to upload to the App Store   When Application Loader shows you its main screen  select the Choose button on the lower right of the main window and open your IPA that you exported for the App Store   Proceed with the submission   Why you want to do this    Detailed app submission error reporting  Exact explanations of submission errors  It tells you what s incorrect in your app that you are trying to submit  You don t have to deal with the insipid error that prompted this question in the first place  It works consistently in my tests where Xcode s Submit App to Store    from the Archive menu does not

I was experiencing the exact same error hence being here  failed about 6 times over an hour    I just tried again now  without changing anything   it worked by itself    I read on the Apple-forums that it s an issue with Apple servers  nothing to do with your Xcode   I also read that others trying the upload via ApplicationLoader  Menu -  Xcode -  Open Developer Tool -  Application Loader   this will ask where your code is  you would then have to select your Archive  not the source code   you can upload your code this way if you need  I personally prefer the built-in Xcode instead   Works either way   For the record  I am copying the thread from Apple Forums   Cheers Heider

I ve tried to load archive nearly 10 times  with all kinds of cleans and reloads  with different versions and provisioning files   still received the same error  Then suddenly on my next attempt it showed me   cannot proceed with delivery an existing transporter instance is currently uploading this package   I did the following and it helped   Basically  you need to clear out the transport tokens  This can happen if you were to close out of Xcode while in the middle of submitting an app to iTunes Connect    Users  lt username gt   itmstransporter UploadTokens    Delete any  token files in this directory  If you are unable to find the  token files  this is because they are hidden in Finder  To hide show hidden files in Finder  use the following Terminal command  TRUE   UNHIDE  FALSE   HIDE    defaults write com apple finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE killall Finder

I think my issue was that I had previously attempted to upload the same version number of my application and it either failed for another reason  or I cancelled it myself   I changed the version of my app to a version which had not been used before  Cleaned my project  Re-archived it  then uploaded with no issues          You need to INCREASE your version number  you can t make it smaller

Update June5     Apple appear to have fixed the current particular bug that was present for about the last week  In short  you can upload with the blue  quot Upload to App Store    quot  button  rather than having to use the application loader   For June 1  2017 even more information  the seemingly failed uploads do indeed seem to go to the app store      with each of the items there 208-231  I had tried to upload in the normal way  and it failed with the  quot Try Again  -22421  quot  code  In fact  unnoticed by me  they were all going up to the app store  but it looks like they were just getting stuck on endless processing  I then did I believe exactly what StevenOjo reported  yesterday  above   Setting up an A NEW account on iTunes with a NEW email address  ALSO SET THAT UP ON DEVELOPER  remembering that  because Apple is the world s most idiotic organization  developer apple is totally different from ituneconnect apple  From my actual normal account  and this is IN DEVELOPER  NOT ITUNES CONNECT  I invited that new alter ego as an admin  Exporting the app from the organizer  as an IPA for app store distribution   Logging into application loader with that new email and uploading the archive  It worked without any issues    It s possible it would actually work fine now with my usual account  I don t know  To be clear  after a very short time  say  two minutes   the final build  ie  233 above  did indeed become  quot ready to test quot  as normal on the app store     All the  quot dud quot  uploads seem to be stuck forever on processing  The staggering incompetence of Apple has reached  quot conspiracy theory quot  levels     It is literally not possible to hire programmers and sysadmins  who are this bad  There must be some sort of conspiracy theory  behind the utter fiasco that is Apple s provisioning  Maybe it s some sort of reverse-psychology marketing plot or something         who knows   Later the same day  I TRIED UPDATING itmstransporter  I then tried with a new build number using the normal  quot Upload to the App Store    quot  cheery blue button  It did not work     I then tried using Application Loader as described above    It DID work with ApplicationLoader  Conclusion     Unfortunately  itmstransporter is probably not relevant      what a fiasco

I also ran into this with my xCode 7 3 1  I did below and looks like 22421 is generic error code if Enable Bitcode is checked selected    Removed and regenerated fresh certificates  amp  profiles Cleaned project and restarted machine Made sure that I have all icons for my watch app and iOS app watch image asset bundle is  lt 5MB followed this to enable or disable Bitcode flag   And achieved  - Still build gets uploaded only if I uncheck Enable Bitcode  which I don t understand why

Both developers on our team experienced the same problem  from different machines on May 31st 2017   I worked around the problem by     Setting up an app specific password on my Apple ID   Exporting the app from the organizer  as an IPA for app store distribution   Logging into application loader with that App Specific password and uploading the archive  It worked without any issues     What a lovely waste of time  Hopefully these steps work for others and save some time

When you receive error  Action could not be completed  Try Again  -22421    Just try to resubmit same app on iTunes store using XCode again  and you will get the actual error messages next time    Detailed error message which your received next time will help you what to do actually     If you are receiving same error again and again  you can submit app using  App Loader  and it may success to submit     Take care Point      Please check your app version   build version number is greater than previously submitted version   You can verify it in Xcode -  Project setting -  General section AND iTunes-Connect-Account -  App Package -  Activity tab

If you connect a device while the app is building archiving  your generic device will change to your connected device automatically  and when you are trying to upload to the app store you will have that weird crash    This     will change to this automatically     So to answer your question  I don t know if your issue have been caused because you plugged your iOs device while archiving  but you will be able to reproduce that issue if you plug your iOS device while archiving your app  Hope this helps somebody
