Not resolved on this machine with watchOS 10.4, iOS 17.4.1, Xcode 15.3, macOS 14.4. Watch was originally in run destinations list but removed, along with three iOS devices (including the paired iPhone), while attempting to resolve connection issues with all. iOS connection issues resolved by temporarily disabling VPN - see TN3158. Watch no longer appears as candidate in run destinations management window (after manually removing in preparation to re-add). Next beta releases of Xcode and OSs are uncharacteristically slow appearing - presume Apple is scrambling to fix what is not a small problem. @eskimo has several threads communicating problem, but no mention of the Watch connection issue - suspect it is related but its own issue. TestFlight appears the best workaround until this is resolved.

Multiple versions of Xcode can coexist. Xcode 14.3.1 probably runs fine under Sonoma - have you tried? You will need to set the active version of Xcode using xcode-select -s /path/to/active/Xcode/Contents/Developer https://github.com/XcodesOrg/xcodes is a handy tool to download and unpack Xcode versions more quickly, and provides a GUI to activate the desired version.

I strongly suspect Xcode 11 beta 5 is the culprit but there seem to have been general performance regressions in Catalina beta 5. Simulator in Xcode beta 5 when using SwiftUI preview either brings performance to a crawl here or it causes a kernel panic

No go here on a 2014 Mac Mini attempting to install on volume with latest Mojave or on empty volume, each time in their own APFS container. The infamous "An Error Occurred While Preparing the Installation. Try running this application again." message from the installer is the only result. Same as DP 2.Completely implausibly, the bug report I filed for the same problem with DP 2 is marked as having no similiar feedback filed. :-(

Will certainly file additional bug reports once the installer team returns from their remedial state machines course and produces a functioning installer. :-( Catalina DP 3 is, as was DP 2 before it, uninstallable for a significant number of users, this one included. Seems unlikely this will change until at least 14 days have elapsed.For the moment, it's worth noting SwiftUI Preview under DP 1 is the first userland scenario in a very long time I've seen capable of consistenly triggering kernel panics.

I'm guessing the release (current) version depends on one or more 32-bit components (Quicktime codecs probably).If so, we're unlikely to see it working until Catalina's official release and a concurrent update of iMovie.

I've been able to launch the installer for beta 2 from a Mojave volume and select another APFS-formatted volume as the target (both an empty volume and one containing Mojave) - but the target volume was in a separate container. The installer has refused (on each of half a dozen tries) to reboot for completion of the installation process. An initial attempt to run the installer from a Mojave volume and target a separate volume containing beta 1 showed that volume in the targets list but refused to allow selecting it.I've given up on the beta 2 installer (especially given more than a few reports of stability problems with installations which were successful) - SwiftUI must wait until at least the next beta. System 7 with a collection of the most unstable Desk Accessories was more usable than this :-(

You're not the only one.It also locks up the UI here and attempting to generate a detailed error report causes an OS reboot.[edit] - Both the simulator and swiftui preview now reliably cause a kernel panic

That extension format has been deprecated for some time and, as announced in the 10.15 release notes and elsewhere, Safari no longer supports them.

Installed properly here the first time on Apple TV 4K, so it isn't a universal issue.The installer did gratuitously re-arrange the top shelf, mangle the AppleIDs previously entered, and both the Apple Events and WWDC apps seem to be on strike (refusing to show current content. But then this year's logo did promise it would lose its mind).
