IOS 9 Cannot Install Applications

Question

When I try to install the application on iOS 9.0 by clicking the itms-services://URL in Safari, nothing happens. This is displayed in the console of the iOS device:

itunesstored[586] <Warning>: ExternalDownloadManifest: Skipping download and install of: XXXXXXX

Answer 1

This also happens if you have a version of the App Store installed on your device and you are trying to install the internal version with the same Bundle ID.

When you do this, the device will simply ignore the “Install” button to start the OTA installation and quietly register this annoying message.

ExternalDownloadManifest: Skipping download and install of: XXXXXXX

Nothing is displayed on the device, you stay to understand what went wrong for yourself.

Answer 3

This happens when the version you are installing has a different package identifier than the version already installed on the device.

Answer 4

Seeing this recently with the TestFairy build while trying to install them on top of an already installed build from the App Store (Xcode 7, iOS 9)

TestFlight is building updates, but not surprised.
