  • I have the same question. I've MaxOS 14.0 and XCode 14.3.1 installed. I would love to install XCode 15 but I do not understand what to do next with this files.

I got the same issue.

My Xcode 14.2 doesn't install automatically when theses files are downloaded.

(Xcode_15_beta.xcdownloadmanifest, iOS_17_beta_Simulator_Runtime)

  • I downloaded it the 2nd time zip came out. The rest not sure what's the need.

Refer the following link: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/installing-additional-simulator-runtimes

Basically you need to select the beta xcode version as default and run the following commands:

    xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode-beta.app
    xcodebuild -runFirstLaunch
    xcrun simctl runtime add "~/Downloads/watchOS 9 beta Simulator Runtime.dmg"
  • It doesn't download the Xcode-beta.app so this doesn't help at all.

Ah, if you unselect all additional downloads, then it downloads the main Xcode like you would expect. (Doesn't download xcdownloadmanifest)

  • This is the way :)

    Bug on the download page apparently.

  • Apple needs to be a bit clear on that lol

When I downloaded the package it also included Xcode_15_beta.xip, and opening it helped me install Xcode 15.0 beta. I suggest not installing iOS 17.0 beta Simulator by clicking on iOS_17_beta_Simulator_Runtime.dmg but rather doing so later in Xcode > Settings > Platforms
