Archives not showing up in Organizer for Xcode 4

EDIT (Incorporated all comments to a single answer)

Try one of the following (or all)

1. Instead of using Build For -> Archive, in the product menu just use archive. It will show up then.

2. In the scheme editor, edit the scheme and go to the Archive tab, make sure the check box for show in Organizer is checked.

3. In the archive tab in the scheme editor check the build configuration used for archiving. Make sure it has the right entitlements file & certificates.

4. In the build settings switch Skip Install -> Release to NO, for the build settings used for archiving.

5. Make sure the archives folder and XCode project files are inside the same shared folder if network drive is used. I took me a few days to finally figure this out as I placed my XCode source files from a Windows shared folder, but the Archives folder is on the local Mac, which caused archives not picked up by Organizer.

This is based on another answer from a similar question which can be found at Archive does not appear in xcode4 organizer

I take no credit for this answer, but this together with the suggestions from Ron fixed the problem for me.

For the "Release" configuration do the following:

Set "Skip Install" to YES on your project

Set "Skip Install" to NO on your application target

Set "Skip Install" to YES on all static library targets that are included

Choose Product -> Archive from the menu.

This also worked for me, and according to the original answer poster, is based on advice from the Apple Dev Forums.

I had the same problem... I had mistakenly set "Installation Directory" (INSTALL_PATH) to an empty string in my Build Settings. Removing this setting and using the default /Applications solved my issue.
