Solution

  • I had this problem when behind a firewall.

    I got around it by editing:

    /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Applications/Application\ Loader.app/Contents/MacOS/itms/java/lib/net.properties

    If you do not find net.properties in above mentioned path then try, as it is changed now.

    /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Applications/Application\ Loader.app/Contents/itms/java/lib/net.properties

    Change the line:

    # https.proxyPort=443

    To:

    https.proxyPort=80

    This enables the application to use the HTTP port for HTTPS. Worked straight away after this.
