Xcode 14 cannot prepare iPhone 12 running iOS 15.7

After upgrading to Xcode 14 I can no longer run on my iPhone 12 running iOS 15.7. It appears the 15.7 SDK is missing. In fact there are no iOS 15 SDKs anymore. I've rebooted both my iPhone and Mac Pro numerous times without success. So far Xcode 14 is a disaster. Thanks Apple!

Note: I had to delete and re-install Xcode from App Store after the upgrade from the developer download broke all Swift Package loading. How do I re-install iOS 15.x SDKs?

Yeah, this bit me too today, for an iPhone 12 and iPad. Sounds like this is going to cost me days of development unless Apple can fix.

Please and thank you

Reviewing the Xcode 14 release notes (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode-release-notes/xcode-14-release-notes) today, I came upon this unfortunate item:

"Xcode 14 cannot be used with iOS 15.7 for development. (99847608)
Workaround: Use Xcode 13.4.1 with iOS 15.7."

For this you can add iOS 15.7 Device support file in your Xcode device support directory from another Xcode version which have already iOS 15.7 support file this will be work fine. its working for me I hope it will be work for everyone.

1:-> To get into 'Device Support' :: Open Finder -> Applications -> Scroll to Xcode -> Right Click -> Show Package Contents -> Contents -> Developer -> Platforms -> iPhoneOS.platform -> DeviceSupport. 2:-> Copy iOS 15.7 device support file from another Xcode device support. 3:-> Paste it in your Xcode device support than close Xcode and restart it and it will be working.
