Unable to run/install tvOS apps in Simulator after installing beta

Hi,


Since I installed Xcode 10 beta 3, I’ve been unable to run apps in Xcode 9.4.1 tvOS simulator. Xcode shows “Lanching <app name>“ but nothing happens.


I’ve tried uninstalling the beta, reinstalling Xcode 9.4.1, removing simulators and installing apps with xcrun simctl, removing the DerivedData folder and creating a new user account, but no luck. Running tvOS apps in the beta simulator works fine. Running iOS apps in the simulator also works fine, but I need to work with the stable Xcode.


Anyone had this problem?


Thanks.

LNM.

Had the same problem, running 10.13.5


I did all of the following, but not sure which fixed it:


- delete & empty trash on all existing xcode installations

- remove as much xcode leftovers as I could find:

- then did

% sudo killall -9 com.apple.CoreSimulator.CoreSimulatorService 2> /dev/null

- then delete:


  • /Library/Preferences/com.apple.dt.Xcode.plist
  • ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iphonesimulator.plist*
  • /Library/Developer/PrivateFrameworks/CoreSimulator.framework
  • ~/Library/*/CoreSimulator


- then reinstall xcode 9.4 via app store

- then fix that borked install by installing XcodeSystemResources.pkg from /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Resources/Packages

- restarted


Now both 9.4 and 9.1 can launch apps on the tvOS simulator. What a day.
