XCode 15 can't run on iOS 17 devices.
- Simulator 17.2 is installed.
- Working perfectly in simulator
- iOS 16 devices and below works.
Devices:
- Sonoma 14.2 (M1 Pro 16")
- XCode 15.1
- iOS 17.1( iPhone 15 Pro)
I've tried many things and nothing works:
- Restarting XCode
- Restarting Mac
- Restarting devices
- Turning on
Developer Mode - Re-trust Mac devices multiple times
- Turning off VPN. I don't even use VPN (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/737875)
- Tried XCode 15.2 beta too. Same issue.
- Using multiple USB-C cable. Including thunderbolt cable.
- Force every device to connect to 5GHz network and 2.4GHz network.
- Turning off WiFi, Bluetooth, Mobile Data on Mac + iOS device. Re-trust the device.
- this one is a real head scratcher because network is not related to the issue...
The issue I experienced:
- Always the same error:
Previous preparation error: An error occurred while communicating with a remote process.. The connection was invalidated. - Capacity in
Device and Simulatorwindow in XCode isunknown(should've been 64GB, 128GB, etc)
Surely I'm not the only one experiencing this? Super annoying and I have lost 9++ hours debugging this without any avail.

After 4 days of debugging console and a bit of research, I've fixed this issue. I believe the issue is related to my Mac / XCode because the same issue doesn't happen on fresh installed Mac.
The issue is XCode and iPhone couldn't connect because (I think) Developer Disk Image are corrupted / not found. Therefore they can't make a connection.
Solution: Fix corrupted / missing Developer Disk Image
So what I did:
- Rename
/Library/Developerto something else. Probably like/Library/Developers. - Make sure it's on the root path, not
/Users/[mac_username]/Library/Developerfolder as both folder haveDeveloperDiskImagefolder inside. - Restart XCode.
/Library/Developerwill populate again
If it doesn't work:
- Also rename
/Users/[mac_username]/Library/Developerfolder - Unpair your phone and re-pair it again
- Try restarting everything (Mac, Xcode, iPhone) just to be sure.
This is so hard to found because I've reinstalled XCode 5 times, but for some reason /Library/Developer are not invalidated from scratch.
Hope it helps.
