Hello community, After unable to use Metal Toolchain for Xcode Beta 1 and 2 even after following the workarounds, and using Xcode Beta 3, I am still unable to use the downloaded Metal Compiler on my device. Building any project with metal file results in warning: Could not read serialized diagnostics file: error("Failed to open diagnostics file") (in target '<target>' from project '<project>') error: error: cannot execute tool 'metal' due to missing Metal Toolchain; use: xcodebuild -downloadComponent MetalToolchain Command CompileMetalFile failed with a nonzero exit code Here is my build environment, $ xcodebuild -version Xcode 26.0 Build version 17A5276g I have also checked the downloaded metal toolchain. $ xcodebuild -downloadComponent metalToolchain -exportPath /tmp/MyMetalExport/ 2025-07-13 13:16:17.293 xcodebuild[2153:34019] IDEDownloadableMetalToolchainCoordinator: Failed to remount the Metal Toolchain: The file “com.apple.MobileAsset.MetalToolchain-v17.1.5276.7.3KEJwX” couldn’t be opened because you don’t have permission to view it.

I'm playing whack-a-mole with trying to get my project to compile. It's a mixture of SwiftUI and UIKit and I'm getting random storyboard compile failures: Command CompileStoryboard failed with a nonzero exit code If I open the storyboard in question, it spins for a while and then appears. I try to compile again and typically a different one fails. Once and a while I can actually get a build to complete. Anyone else having this issue or know of a workaround?

I am at a loss as to why, since the latest update, that my preview pane is no longer working. May i have some assistance on the matter? Thank you in advance! 😀✌️

I am signed into Xcode for automatic signing. Which works for a random amount of builds and then the Account/AppleID dissappears from Xcode. This is a vital part of our CI/CD processes and disrupts the workflow alot. MacOS version: Apple M2 15.3 (24D60) Sequoia related: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/724434 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/50252887/account-automatically-removed-from-xcode

I have os_log statements in my app. With my phone connected to the Mac, when I run the app through XCode, open Console app, those logs are shown. However, when I'm launching the app on its own, those logs don't appear in Console (phone still connected). Am I missing something very basic? Please help.

On several different XIBs I get a compiler error like Internal error. Please file a bug at feedbackassistant.apple.com and attach "/var/folders/1v/ 516am8h11fzbmdy9sh r1znh0000an/T/|B-adent-diagnostics 2025-06-30 15-02-36 468000" W These XIBs were unmodified, the only different was the Xcode version they were compiled against. Any suggestions for a fix, workaround, or troubleshooting? I tried restarting Xcode, restarting macOS, cleaning the build, and deleting derived data.

I have a XCFramework which contains slices for both arm64 and arm64e binaries, but some of my apps are only built for arm64. Prior to Xcode 26, this was not an issue, despite the binary in Frameworks folder still containing the arm64e slice. But now with Xcode 26 I get several errors when uploading to the Appstore: Validation failed Inconsistent arm64e support. The main bundle 'HackerNews.app' does not support arm64e. Verify that the all of the targets including [HackerNews.app/Frameworks/Sentry.framework] have consistent support for arm64e. (ID: 542eb011-2689-47fe-a5d5-d043342820a8) Validation failed Invalid architecture. The iOS 17.4 SDK or later is required for an arm64e slice. The bundle executable in “HackerNews.app/Frameworks/Sentry.framework” contains an arm64e slice with the iOS 17.2 SDK. (ID: 60f2cb75-e4be-4583-bebd-36d119275419) Is this intended behavior with Xcode 26?

Hi, When launching my app on the iOS 18 simulator using Xcode 26 beta, the app crashes immediately with a missing symbol error: dyld[23801]: Symbol not found: _NSUserActivityTypeBrowsingWeb Referenced from: <DDBF5C50-BD0E-34C7-B202-888033A93840> /Users/username/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/058F6615-9288-4164-8736-53CBC962FFD4/data/Containers/Bundle/Application/95B984C9-3197-423C-860C-E714BA34ACCB/MyApp.app/MyApp.debug.dylib Expected in: <443671DB-41AE-3963-8403-E4A484837405> /Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Volumes/iOS_22A3351/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Profiles/Runtimes/iOS 18.0.simruntime/Contents/Resources/RuntimeRoot/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/CoreServices Symbol not found: _NSUserActivityTypeBrowsingWeb Referenced from: <DDBF5C50-BD0E-34C7-B202-888033A93840> /Users/username/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/058F6615-9288-4164-8736-53CBC962FFD4/data/Containers/Bundle/Application/95B984C9-3197-423C-860C-E714BA34ACCB/MyApp.app/MyApp.debug.dylib Expected in: <443671DB-41AE-3963-8403-E4A484837405> /Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Volumes/iOS_22A3351/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Profiles/Runtimes/iOS 18.0.simruntime/Contents/Resources/RuntimeRoot/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/CoreServices dyld config: DYLD_SHARED_CACHE_DIR=/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Caches/dyld/24F74/com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-18-0.22A3351/ DYLD_ROOT_PATH=/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Volumes/iOS_22A3351/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Profiles/Runtimes/iOS 18.0.simruntime/Contents/Resources/RuntimeRoot DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/Users/username/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/MyApp-dqwvveywparbascmmycuqktsiopv/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator:/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Volumes/iOS_22A3351/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Profiles/Runtimes/iOS 18.0.simruntime/Contents/Resources/RuntimeRoot/usr/lib/system/introspection DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES=/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Volumes/iOS_22A3351/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Profiles/Runtimes/iOS 18.0.simruntime/Contents/Resources/RuntimeRoot/usr/lib/libLogRedirect.dylib:/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Volumes/iOS_22A3351/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Profiles/Runtimes/iOS 18.0.simruntime/Contents/Resources/RuntimeRoot/usr/lib/libBacktraceRecording.dylib:/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Volumes/iOS_22A3351/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Profiles/Runtimes/iOS 18.0.simruntime/Contents/Resources/RuntimeRoot/usr/lib/libMainThreadChecker.dylib:/usr/lib/libRPAC.dylib:/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Volumes/iOS_22A3351/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Profiles/Runtimes/iOS 18.0.simruntime/Contents/Resources/RuntimeRoot/usr/lib/libViewDebuggerSupport.dylib:/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/GPUToolsCapture.framework/GPUToolsCapture DYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH=/Users/username/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/MyApp-dqwvveywparbascmmycuqktsiopv/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator DYLD_FALLBACK_FRAMEWORK_PATH=/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Volumes/iOS_22A3351/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Profiles/Runtimes/iOS 18.0.simruntime/Contents/Resources/RuntimeRoot/System/Library/Frameworks DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH=/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Volumes/iOS_22A3351/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Profiles/Runtimes/iOS 18.0.simruntime/Contents/Resources/ Notes: I have only tested on the iOS 18 simulator so far. I have not yet tested on earlier iOS versions or physical devices. The app runs fine on iOS 26 simulator using Xcode 26, so the crash seems specific to the iOS 18 simulator. This looks like a system symbol that may not be linked properly in the iOS 18 simruntime. Is this a known issue with the iOS 18 SDK or simulator runtime in Xcode 26 beta? Thanks!

The project builds successfully but unable to archive project on Xcode 26. error: "Command SwiftCompile failed with a nonzero exit code"

Hello, I've noticed the prices of my products in my Xcode synced StoreKit configuration are not updated when I change the price in App Store Connect. I tried to manually sync the file, to remove and add it again to my project but old initial prices are still used. In the screenshot below, the price is currently $2.99 but the file still uses the initial price of $1.99. It makes testing a little bit painful because I'm never sure which product is being shown. Is this a bug? Is there a way to get the live production App Store prices be used instead of the starting prices? I filed a feedback for this: FB17798486 Regards, Axel

Has anyone been able to use Google Gemini with Intelligence in Xcode? I got the Claude models working in there but as much as I try I can't see any Gemini models.

I'm pulling my hair out here with this new Xcode 16, it complains that my app's dSYM is empty though it's clearly not, it's about 25MB. I'm working on a project using an internal static library, everything is built inhouse using swift, we own all the source code. It worked just fine until the other week, when I updated the Xcode, and now I can't debug anything. I keep getting "type for self cannot be reconstructed" when I run "po self.some_property". Why is that? The Debug information Format is set to DWARF with dSYM File for both the executable and lib projects. I've been a Unix guy since before I knew myself and I enjoy fixing things myself, down to bare metal, but man, this bug is driving me crazy. Is it even a bug?? It's the first time in more than 15 years since I started coding on Mac and iPhone when a bug has defeated me. I was always able to fix things using just the documentation and google, but the Apple toolchain is getting worse and worse nowadays. I remember the time when Apple made the complicated things simple, now they make the simple things complicated :( I just split the static lib from the main project one year ago, because of the ridiculously long build time. Should I merge back all the code in a single project? Something seems wrong to me. So I created this account to ask the masters. How can I get back my debug info (and sanity)? Using Xcode 15 is not an option because it doesn't run on Sequoia.

Just downloaded XCode 26 and I see build fails despite Metal toolchain 26.0 downloaded. What am I missing? cannot execute tool 'metal' due to missing Metal Toolchain; use: xcodebuild -downloadComponent MetalToolchain

All is fine in Xcode15, no LLDB errors whatsoever, but in Xcode16 I can't get any variable displayed in the console because of the following error: error: type for self cannot be reconstructed: type for typename "$......." was not found (cached) error: Couldn't realize Swift AST type of self. Hint: using `v` to directly inspect variables and fields may still work. I've checked the output of swift-healthcheck and there are several messages like this: SwiftASTContextForExpressions(module: "ROA", cu: "ROA+ViewLayer.swift")::LoadOneModule() -- Missing Swift module or Clang module found for "UIKit", "imported" via SwiftDWARFImporterDelegate. Hint: Register Swift modules with the linker using -add_ast_path. I added -add_ast_path to the OTHER_LDFLAGS in the faulty module's build settings but no luck. How can I debug my project in Xcode16?

Is it just because it's still so early or are we not getting the feature in the EU for the time being?

My app is built in flutter and has a native Widget in it. The widget's Info.plist file has the NSExtensionPrincipalClass key that links to the VerseOfTheDayWidgetBundle as string. However the Transport app throws an error: Validation failed (409) Unexpected Info.plist key. Unexpected key NSExtensionPrincipalClass found in extension Info.plist for Payload/Runner.app/PlugIns/VerseOfTheDayWidgetExtension.appex. (ID: 266e2dd8-44b9-4d67-97d9-d7d47013cff9) Now I tried removing the NSExtensionPrincipalClass and but the simulator throws an error asking for the NSExtensionPrincipalClass or Storyboard class but my widget is completely written in SwiftUI and does not have a storyboard which is why I am using the NSExtensionPrincipalClass. I tried to bypass this by creating two info.plist files for my widget (debug and release) this bypassed the security check on Transporter but then the app wouldn't install in TestFlight confirming the same issue as the simulator. I can confirm that my app's info.plist does not have any mention of NSExtensionPrincipalClass. so that isn't what is causing this error. I tried a lot of things but it just wouldn't work, at this point I feel maybe its something wrong with the checks Transporter app. I'm not sure, please guide me. The widget and the app work completely fine on the simulator with the NSExtensionPrincipalClass, its just the Transporter that does not like it being there.

After changing Xcode 16.2 with min iOS 15. I got error in debug mode Assertion failed: (reconstituted == accumulator), function setFixup64, file OutputFile.cpp, line 2975. But project still can archive to IPA. Anyone has the same issue as me?

Error: Unable to install “My App” Failed to install embedded profile for com.apple.myapp : 0xe800801a (This provisioning profile does not have a valid signature (or it has a valid, but untrusted signature).) I've tried almost everything, but I keep getting the same message on a Mac Mini M1 and several physical iPhones (11 and 16, both Pro). On a MacBook Air (Sequoia 15.7) with the same account, the same profiles work without any problems; and on simulators with iOS 26, it also works without any problems. This clearly tells us that the provisioning profile is not the problem, which is what the message mentions. It obviously has to do with the 26 update. P.S All of this worked fine before installing iOS, macOS, and Xcode 26.

In developing a new MacOS app in Xcode I set up a Storekit configuration file so I could test 2 non-consumable purchases locally. I've been successfully testing them for the past couple of weeks, but suddenly yesterday I found I was unable to make purchases. I can successfully fetch products, but when I try to purchase either of them, I get the following error: Error handling payment sheet request: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "The connection to service created from an endpoint was invalidated from this process." UserInfo= {NSDebugDescription=The connection to service created from an endpoint was invalidated from this process.} Purchase did not return a transaction: Error Domain=ASDErrorDomain Code=5115 "Received failure in response from Xcode" UserInfo= {NSDebugDescription=Received failure in response from Xcode, NSUnderlyingError=0x600002d44ae0 {Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "The connection to service created from an endpoint was invalidated from this process."

It's very strange because I haven't made any changes to the code & I hadn't changed the configuration file prior to this error appearing. I've since deleted the configuration file & created a new one - but it's still not working. If I create a transaction in Storekit transaction manager, the app picks it up as having been purchased - so the issue is only isolated to purchases initiated from the app. If I stop using the configuration file when I run the app, it works fine through sandbox testing the real items in App Store Connect.

At the Platform State of the Union, Apple demoed clicking a ✨ button in the Xcode toolbar to use Apple Intelligence in Xcode. I don't see that button in Xcode Version 26.0 beta (17A5241e). Am I missing it? It's supposed to be in the upper-left corner, right? Do I need to turn it on or something? I'm on macOS 15.5 Sequoia, on a 16-inch, 2021 MacBook Pro
