Some Macs recently received a macOS system update which disabled the simulator runtimes used by Xcode 15, including the simulators for iOS, tvOS, watchOS, and visionOS. If your Mac received this update, you will receive the following error message and will be unable to use the simulator: The com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-17-2 simulator runtime is not available. Domain: com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimError Code: 401 Failure Reason: runtime profile not found using "System" match policy Recovery Suggestion: Download the com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-17-2 simulator runtime from the Xcode To resume using the simulator, please reboot your Mac. After rebooting, check Xcode Preferences → Platforms to ensure that the simulator runtime you would like to use is still installed. If it is missing, use the Get button to download it again. The Xcode 15.3 Release Notes are also updated with this information.

Our UITests are failing because Simulator won't start up. What can I do here? Workflow Settings: Sequoia 15.1 Xcode 16.1 Testing on iPad and iPhone 17.5 simulators Thank you in advance

Hi, Can anyone please share some information on why my Mac with apple silicon still using iOS simulator with x86_64 architecture instead of arm64 architecture. The problem arises when I use FFMPEG frameworks, these frameworks are working on arm64, so they should work on iOS Simulator, but I get error saying these frameworks are for arm64 and Xcode/iOS simulator needs x86_64 based frameworks. why Xcode still expects frameworks with x86_64 architecture. Thanks,

I've been working on my mobile app project using Expo. Yesterday, when I tried to run the app again, the Expo Go in the iOS simulator got stuck on the screen showing "New update available, downloading..." and then crashed. I'm not sure what went wrong. It only provides a long error report. I ran an EAS build, which completed successfully, so I suspect the issue might be with the iOS simulator or Expo Go itself. Please help me out :(

Hello Apple Developer Community. I have a Problem with Xcode Preview. The Problem is that when I try to start the Preview in Xcode (Not Simulator) It crashes and when I try to click Reopen, it says that I must Update my Mac OS, but my Mac OS is Up-to-Date. Can you help me with this? Thank you :D

I already asked this, although I want to ask again so it boots and gets more people; When I try to run my project on the simulator, it tells me there is a bug. It is not in the code I wrote, but I believe in the compiler. It would work perfectly, say the build succeeded, but the phone turns white and stops there. I don't know how to debunk it, what to do! Picture of what happens with the phone: Picture of the debugging area: Picture of my code: If I need to add more things, please let me know. Have a great day!

I'm new to Xcode and decided to give it a try, however, I'm unable to preview even the default "hello, world" message. I've tried downloading Xcode on the App Store on Mac and from the official website, but I couldn't go pass the "Preparing (Automatic) iPhone Simulator." I've also tried the following line of code on Terminal, but nada: xcrun simctl erase all Here's what I see for almost two hours now (it makes no sense): My system specs: iMac Retina 4K, 21.5-inch, 2019, 3 GHz Intel Core i5 6-Core, Radeon Pro 560X 4 GB, 8 GB 2667 MHz DDR4 (two 4gb core each), 1TB SSD. I've coded way bigger web projects using various applications, but Xcode can't even preview the sample file? Please, help. I would really like to code using Swift. :)

I'm trying to transfer a CSV file to my iPhone 16 simulator to use for testing my application, but it keeps failing. See the image below. That occurs when I try to drag the file into the simulator. I also tried to use the Share option for the file, but nothing happens with that. It doesn't transfer but it also doesn't fail. I'm assuming it's failing in the background. Anyone know what I can do?

I’m encountering an issue with the page.selectionForWord(at:) method in my application. This method has stopped working in Mac Designed for iPad mode. The functionality works fine on physical devices such as iPhone and iPad, as well as on Mac, but in this specific mode, the method no longer works, and the application crashes. It is crucial for me that this functionality works in Mac Designed for iPad mode, as rewriting the entire code for Mac would be too time-consuming, especially considering the size of the application. Interestingly, a similar method, page.selectionForLine(at:), works perfectly with the same parameters in all environments, including the Mac Designed for iPad mode. This makes the issue even more puzzling. The issue began after the latest update. The app no longer responds to the page.selectionForWord(at:) method, which causes the application to crash. I have attached a test app to reproduce the error.

Hi, I just upgraded MBP M3 Pro and mac mini M1/M2 to macOS 15.1 Sequoia and these macs not showing its available destination candidates after update. DEVELOPER_DIR=`xcode-select -p` xcodebuild -scheme myapp -derivedDataPath ./derived_data -showdestinations Command line invocation: /Applications/Xcode/Xcode_16.2.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/xcodebuild -scheme myapp -derivedDataPath derived_data -showdestinations User defaults from command line: IDEDerivedDataPathOverride = /path/to/myapp/derived_data IDEPackageSupportUseBuiltinSCM = YES Available destinations for the "approduce_calc_v2" scheme: { platform:macOS, arch:arm64, variant:Designed for [iPad,iPhone], id:00006020-001971C422C3C01E, name:My Mac } { platform:iOS, id:dvtdevice-DVTiPhonePlaceholder-iphoneos:placeholder, name:Any iOS Device } { platform:iOS Simulator, id:dvtdevice-DVTiOSDeviceSimulatorPlaceholder-iphonesimulator:placeholder, name:Any iOS Simulator Device } While my macs got all the simulator runtimes/devices installed and available. $ DEVELOPER_DIR=/Applications/Xcode/Xcode_16.2.app xcrun simctl list devices == Devices == -- iOS 17.5 -- iPhone 15 Pro (48C3EFC6-2B93-4C9D-8C7B-F841CE09E901) (Shutdown) iPhone 15 Pro Max (E2C4D8AA-BF0A-42B4-9D83-70F0CFD21934) (Shutdown) iPhone 15 (350882E2-5A78-47E7-879F-E548F8810386) (Shutdown) iPhone 15 Plus (9FE3F7F6-FAC0-4ACA-96A6-0E8DBBA17068) (Shutdown) ... and in my other macs, still in Sonoma 14.5, xcodebuild -showdestinations command still works well(shows the entire list of available simulator devices). My question is: Did you change the specs of xcodebuild -showdestinations command from the ones working in macOS Sequoia, not to show all the destinations available?

When I build and rum my iOS app with xocde 16.0 or higher version with my 16.0 iOS, 17.0 iOS, if fails to run with error. (Library not loaded: /System/Library/Frameworks/SwiftUICore.framework/SwiftUICore) I found this error after update my macOS and xcode (Ventura -> Sequoia, Xcode 15.2 -> 16.2). I try to setting '-weak_framework SwiftUI' for solve this error with this post (https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/126506). But when applied, an error occurred in modify on all swiftUI. If a project is built with a simulator over 18 versions, it runs smoothly. *issue project is with tac or tuist. There are two projects in question, and each configuration is (1.17.0 tca + 4.37.0) / (tuist 3.4.0). Does anyone have any pointers as where I even start to debug this issue and narrow down on what's going on with Xcode 16?

When I'm inspecting a WKWebView in a simulator and the WKWebView loads a local URL with a port number, I've found that most features of Safari dev tools that worked in iOS 17 are broken in iOS 18. Here are the steps I'm taking: Set up a WKWebView with isInspectable = true that loads a local URL, e.g. https://www.local.mydomain.com:3000 Install a self-signed SSL certificate on a simulator for www.local.mydomain.com Run my app on the simulator The WKWebView loads successfully In Safari on my Mac, I can select the WKWebView and open dev tools to inspect it If the simulator is on iOS 17, this works fine, no issues. But if the simulator is on iOS 18, Safari dev tools are mostly broken. I can tell that there is a connection to the WKWebView because the Network tab logs the requests that I expect. But I cannot use any of the other dev tools features: Elements, Sources, Console, etc. Has anyone else encountered this? Is there a workaround?

When launching the SimpleWatchConnectivity sample in a simulator (iOS 18.2 + watchOS 11.2), almost all the functionality works, but TransferFile does not work. The error is the following: -[WCFileStorage persistOutgoingFileTransfer:] error serializing file transfer <WCSessionFileTransfer: ...> due to Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4866 "Caught exception during archival: This object may only be encoded by an NSXPCCoder." How can it be fixed or worked around?

When I used VisionPro simulator, I want to get 4K screenshots. So I choose Xcode > I/O > External Displays > 3840x2160 (4K) . After I chose, a new window appears, but the new window is a black screen. When I changed to any resolution, the new window is black.

Hello, I found in IOS18 preset iphone 16PM simulator, when I set as not connect to hardware keyboard, after the simulator restart, the visual keyboard no longer shows. The input from Mac keyboard also not work. I must open hardware keyboard connection and disable it again to show the keyboard. This is not happen on IOS17 iphone15PM simulator. Is anyone know why or how to set it as always show the visual keyboard? Thanks

I have built an iOS app using flutter. The app (debug and release build) works fine on real devices. But when trying to run integration tests on this app using appium on an emulator, the app keepas crashing randomly with these error logs: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Z1f7hudmpHUATnFvoSZeAAoi8-NyVn6P9BFHNOZkzyA/edit?tab=t.0 Any help would be appreciated

Hi there - I maintain the react-native-apple-authentication module which allows react native developers to implement sign in with Apple When testing we noticed that code working perfectly in iOS17 Simulators now fails on iOS18/18.1 Simulators. Specifically, the credential status is always revoked when testing on an iOS18+ Simulator. The same code works perfectly on a real device running iOS18 or 18.1 so this appears to be a Simulator bug. This is problematic because App review is frequently performed on a Simulator, so there are false-negative test results for Sign In With Apple from reviewers when they use iOS18 emulators, resulting in App submission rejections. We're tracking this here, with some results posted and an example app in-repo that demonstrates the issue: https://github.com/invertase/react-native-apple-authentication/issues/356 It would be great to see the Simulator fixed so that it works correctly with Sign In With Apple again. Thanks

The simulator will not work. No matter How much I restart, when I open my app, it tells me either Build succeeded but I see a loading bar or a loading automatic phone simulator but it never shows up like the line would. keep going in a loop, for example this is what it looks like,
