Hi! Help me, please. I've installed Xcode 15 on MacOS Ventura 13.5.1 and have an issue, that I couldn't solve in a week: Xcode 15 doesn't recognize iPhone 13 Pro Max with iOS 17 - It doesn't show it at all.

What I've found now:

  • Xcode 14.3.1 recognizes the same iphone.
  • Xcode 15 beta has the same issue.
  • Xcode 15 recognizes other devices with 16.4 (iPhone 13 and iPad 8 Gen).
  • Updated the iphone to 17.0.1, same thing.
  • Tried Xcode reinstallation, turning on/off developer mode, unpairing, connecting with other USB cables.

Xcode: Version 15.0 (15A240d) iPhone: iPhone 13 Pro Max with iOS 17.0.1 MacOS: Ventura 13.5.1 (22G90)

Xcode 14.3.1:

Xcode 15 at the same time:

Wow, same here with an iPhone 12PM iOS 17.0.3 / MBP Sonoma 14.0 / Xcode 15.0

The iPhone is being recognized within Manage Run Destinations but is not available as a build target.

I think we need some official Apple support on this one.

I'm having a similar issue with my iPhone XR. It won't show up in "Devices and Simulators" at all. But it shows up just fine in Xcode 14.3.1.

Same here! Come on Apple!

This is killing me as I can't test at all as the feature I need requires me to run on the hardware!

Here's my setup and iOS devices that are not connecting:

  • Xcode 15.0.1
  • macOS 13.6.2 running on M1 Max MacBook Pro.
  • iPhone 14 Pro with iOS 17.1.1
  • iPhone 12 Pro with 17.0.1
  • iPad Pro 12.9 with iPadOS 17.1.1.

I've tried to connect the iPhones and iPad directly (wired) with no luck. I even reset each of them by turning off and back on Developer mode. They also don't show up wirelessly.

Yet each of the devices connect with no problem to the MacBook Pro itself and are visible to the finder.

Ugh!!! 🤬

I'm pleased to say that the issue is finally solved by upgrading to macOS Sonoma! Works like a charm! Others have reported this too on other online forums.

Spent the last 2 days trying to solve this problem and tried everything from the threads on the Apple Developer forums. Only this solution worked! Disabling VPN and all the other tips didn't help for me.

I've found the solution to this issue.

Solution: Remove / rename /Library/Developer folder as it's corrupted.
