Please help me!! Invalid expiration date in profile of summary of review app.ipa content
The profile expiration date is approaching, and no amount of inquiries will solve it. Create a new profile Download a new profile from Xcode Press archive, press Distribute App, press Enterprise, and distribute Invalid expiration date in profile of summary of review app.ipa content I've tried everything that comes out by Googleing profiles, such as regenerating profiles, erasing caches, updating Xcode, updating macOS, deleting existing profile information, etc. Expiration date different from the expiration date of the profile created in that menu is displayed. The expiration date of the profile I created is December 8, 2026, and the previous certificate is January 22, 2026. However, the profile information of the generated ipa is February 12, 2026. So I can't distribute this app because I'm scared, and the expiration date is coming up. Users should have a period of time to update. Get me a novice developer who's choking up.

Project xcodeproj file can no longer by iCloud Sync
Following an unexpected error message while working in Xcode, the project file xcodeproj is no longer synced in iCloud Drive. The Finder shows a cloud icon with a ! and an error message : (NSFileProviderErrorDomain error -2005.) If the local file is zipped, and unzipped elsewhere on iCloud Drive, then the unzipped file can still not be iCloud Synced. Restoring the file from a Time Machine archive does not solve the issue. Apple Care Support finds that iCloud Drive is working fine except for this xcodeproj file and says the issue is Xcode related.

Gitlab CI: Unable to find a device matching the provided destination specifier
Gitlab runner on M4 Mac Mini 2024, XCode 26.2, supported platforms: iOS, native UIKit swift project. Cocoapods. Trying to run tests via fastlane: run_tests(workspace: 'Project.xcworkspace', destination: "platform=macOS,id=#{deviceId}", scheme: "Release", clean: true) And having an error: $ xcodebuild -showBuildSettings -workspace Project.xcworkspace -scheme Release -destination platform\=macOS,id\=01234567-0123456789B9001C 2>&1 [12:23:53]: Could not read the "SUPPORTED_PLATFORMS" build setting, assuming that the project supports iOS only. [12:23:54]: Found simulator "iPhone 16 Pro (18.5)" The tests runs just fine in xcode on "My Mac (Designed for iPad)" device on the very same machine. Compared the output of xcodebuild -showdestinations in terminal: $ xcodebuild -showdestinations -workspace Project.xcworkspace -scheme Release Available destinations for the "Release" scheme: { platform:macOS, arch:arm64, variant:Designed for [iPad,iPhone], id:01234567-0123456789B9001C, name:My Mac } { platform:iOS, id:dvtdevice-DVTiPhonePlaceholder-iphoneos:placeholder, name:Any iOS Device } { platform:iOS Simulator, id:dvtdevice-DVTiOSDeviceSimulatorPlaceholder-iphonesimulator:placeholder, name:Any iOS Simulator Device } { platform:iOS Simulator, arch:arm64, id:A7E98A79-B29B-4E9A-8103-ECBA55ABC0C6, OS:26.2, name:iPhone 17 Pro } But when I launch this command in gitlab runner, I get this: Available destinations for the "Release" scheme: { platform:iOS, id:dvtdevice-DVTiPhonePlaceholder-iphoneos:placeholder, name:Any iOS Device } { platform:iOS Simulator, id:dvtdevice-DVTiOSDeviceSimulatorPlaceholder-iphonesimulator:placeholder, name:Any iOS Simulator Device } { platform:iOS Simulator, arch:arm64, id:A7E98A79-B29B-4E9A-8103-ECBA55ABC0C6, OS:26.2, name:iPhone 17 Pro } I suspect gitlab runner to ruin some ENV variable, probably. So I googled the most common issues on the internet and tried everything I found: LANG: "en_US.UTF-8" LC_ALL: "en_US.UTF-8" unset CFProcessPath And none is worked. I also compared the printenv output in terminal and gitlab runner, didn't found anything suspicious. Ran out of ideas. How can I troubleshoot this?

Xcode 26.1 re-release?
The developer downloads page now lists an Xcode 26.1 which was released on 11th Dec (the original Xcode 26.1 was posted on 3rd Nov). Strangely, this new Xcode 26.1 has a CFBundleShortVersionString of 26.1.1, and a DTXcodeBuild of 17B55 % ls -ln total 4413136 -rw-r--r--@ 1 503 20 2259523057 16 Dec 19:01 Xcode_26.1_Apple_silicon.xip % xip --expand Xcode_26.1_Apple_silicon.xip xip: signing certificate was "Software Update" (validation not attempted) xip: expanded items from "/Users/me/Downloads/temp/Xcode_26.1_Apple_silicon.xip" % plutil -p Xcode.app/Contents/Info.plist | grep CFBundleShort "CFBundleShortVersionString" => "26.1.1" % plutil -p Xcode.app/Contents/Info.plist | grep DTXcodeBuild "DTXcodeBuild" => "17B55" 17B55 does correspond to the original Xcode 26.1 final release. The Xcode 26.1.1 release that was previously posted had a DTXcodeBuild of 17B100, though. The pairing of 26.1.1 and 17B55 looks new and probably a packaging error?

Is Xcode's predictive code completion model has some censoring?
It seems Xcode's predictive code completion model is censored. Specifically, when typing the word "torrent," the model stops working completely. It doesn't matter whether the word is written directly in the code or in a comment. It could also be part of another word, such as "qBittorrent." In either case, the model stops working. Reproducing this issue is fairly simple. Create a Swift file and type the word "torrent." The model will stop generating code. Xcode Version 26.2 (17C52) Predictive Code Completion Model: [com.apple.fm.code.generate_small_v2.base: 700.0.81600.13.202379,0] [com.apple.fm.code.generate_safety_guardrail.base: 1.6.81619.13.202072,0] [com.apple.gm.safety_deny.input.code_intelligence.base: 32025010.20251009.91600.100.1651,0] [com.apple.gm.safety_deny.output.code_intelligence.base: 32025010.20251009.91600.100.1651,0] (Installed)

How to delete iOS simulator runtimes?
There are multiple iOS simulator runtimes located at /System/Library/AssetsV2/com_apple_MobileAsset_iOSSimulatorRuntime which I don't need. I tried the following approaches to delete them but not working. Xcode > Settings > Components > Delete (It can delete some but not all of them) xcrun simctl runtime list (It doesn't show the old runtimes) sudo rm (Operation not permitted) sudo rm -rf cc1f035290d244fca4f74d9d243fcd02d2876c27.asset Password: rm: cc1f035290d244fca4f74d9d243fcd02d2876c27.asset/AssetData/096-69246-684.dmg: Operation not permitted rm: cc1f035290d244fca4f74d9d243fcd02d2876c27.asset/AssetData: Operation not permitted rm: cc1f035290d244fca4f74d9d243fcd02d2876c27.asset/Info.plist: Operation not permitted rm: cc1f035290d244fca4f74d9d243fcd02d2876c27.asset/version.plist: Operation not permitted rm: cc1f035290d244fca4f74d9d243fcd02d2876c27.asset: Operation not permitted I have two questions: Why "xcrun simctl runtime list" is unable to list some old runtimes? How to delete them?

Xcode 26.2 / iOS 26.2 Simulator not downloading
Hey all, I recently updated to Xcode 26.2 and I'm having the hardest time trying to download the corresponding iOS simulator. I installed Xcode from developer downloads and the app did not come loaded with an iOS simulator. When trying to download from Components in Settings, I only get the following message: Download failed due to a bad URL. (Catalog download for com.apple.MobileAsset.iOSSimulatorRuntime) Domain: com.apple.MobileAssetError.Download Code: 49 User Info: { checkConfiguration = 1; } I also tried downloading via Terminal but also get a download failed message. I am on the latest macOS and have over 600 GB of disk space available. In previous versions, I was able to download the iOS simulator directly from Developer Downloads, but anything after 26 is not there. Any suggestions?

Incremental build not working on Mac mini CI (Xcode 26) — always full rebuild
Hi everyone, We run our CI builds on a Mac mini. On my local MacBook, incremental builds work properly and build times are fast, but on CI it looks like Xcode rebuilds everything from scratch every time, and the build is about 6 minutes slower than local. In Xcode 26, “compilation caching” became available. My understanding was that if DerivedData is preserved between CI runs, compilation caching / incremental builds should reduce build time. So I tried specifying the DerivedData path as an absolute path in our xcodebuild command to reuse it across builds. However, it still seems to do a full rebuild every time and the build time didn’t improve. Has anyone seen a similar issue with incremental builds on CI (Mac mini) with Xcode 26? Any advice on what to check or how to configure CI so incremental builds / caching actually work would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Code Coverage Not Generated in Xcode 26.1 Despite Successful Test Runs
We’re facing an issue with Xcode 26.1 where code coverage is not being generated. All our test cases run and pass successfully, but the .xccovreport / .xccovarchive files are never produced. Code coverage is enabled in the scheme, and this setup used to work correctly in earlier Xcode versions. We are trying to determine whether this is a configuration issue on our end or a possible Xcode 26.1 bug. Is anyone else experiencing the same problem with code coverage in Xcode 26.1? Any insights or workarounds would be appreciated.

XCTFail immediately aborts the test in Xcode 26 — no retry on failure
Hi, I’m seeing an unexpected change in how XCTFail behaves in UI tests after updating Xcode. I use the following helper method: `func waitForExistance(file: StaticString, line: UInt) -> Self { if !(element.exists || element.waitForExistence(timeout: Configuration.current.predicateTimeout)) { XCTFail("couldn't find element: \(element) after \(Configuration.current.predicateTimeout) seconds", file: file, line: line) return self } else { return self } }` In Xcode 16.4, this worked as expected: – when an element wasn’t found, XCTFail was triggered, but the test continued running, allowing my retry logic to execute. After updating to Xcode 26.1 / 26.2 - the test now immediately aborts after XCTFail, without executing the next retry. The logs show: `t = 113.22s Tear Down t = 113.22s Terminate com.viessmann.care:81789 *** Assertion failure in -[UITests.Tests _caughtUnhandledDeveloperExceptionPermittingControlFlowInterruptions:caughtInterruptionException:whileExecutingBlock:], XCTestCase+IssueHandling.m:273 Test Case '-[UITests.Tests test_case]' failed (114.323 seconds). Flushing outgoing messages to the IDE with timeout 600.00s Received confirmation that IDE processed remaining outgoing messages` It looks like XCTFail in Xcode 26 is now treated as an unhandled developer exception, which stops the test execution immediately, even when it’s called inside a helper method. This was not the case in earlier versions. My questions: Is this a regression in XCTest? Or an intentional change in how XCTFail behaves in newer Xcode versions? Should failures now be reported differently (e.g., using record(.init(type: .assertionFailure, …))) if I want to continue the test instead of aborting it? I would like to restore the previous behavior where the failure is logged without terminating the entire test, so my retry mechanism can still run. Has anyone else run into this after upgrading? Thanks in advance! If you’d like, I can also add recommended workarounds that actually work with Xcode 16.4 (e.g., replacing XCTFail with a non-terminating issue record).

Xcode 26 cannot run app on simulator, as well as unit test
Hi, When running unit test or app on simulator, it got process crashed mostly of the case, it works fine on the same project, like in Xcode 16.x. Look at the crash report, it randomly crashed when loading libraries, like 2 events attached below...

Metal toolchain compilation error after migration to MacOS 26 and XCode 26.1
Hello. I migrated yesterday two machines from OS15 to OS26 (same Ram; M1Max chip). On the first one, a MBP, everything is allright, and my old Metal projects can compile and run, even with MacOS12 as a destination. On the second computer (MacStudio) I got a compile "error: cannot execute tool 'metal' due to missing Metal Toolchain; use: xcodebuild -downloadComponent MetalToolchain". I spent hours on many forums and tried all proposed solutions and still get the same error. Any idea? Thanks

SPM Traits not working correctly with multiple targets in same Xcode workspace (App + App Clip)
Hi, I've just migrated to Swift Tools 6.2 and package traits, and I'm encountering an issue when using traits with multiple targets in the same Xcode workspace. Setup: Main iOS app target App Clip target Both consume the same local packages (e.g., UIComponents) What I'm trying to achieve: Main app imports packages without the COMPACT_BUILD trait App Clip imports packages with the COMPACT_BUILD trait enabled Package configuration (simplified): // UIComponents/Package.swift let package = Package( name: "UIComponents", platforms: [.iOS(.v18)], traits: [ .trait(name: "COMPACT_BUILD", description: "Minimal build for App Clips"), ], // ... targets: [ .target( name: "UIComponents", dependencies: [...], swiftSettings: [ .define("COMPACT_BUILD", .when(traits: ["COMPACT_BUILD"])), ] ), ] ) In the code: #if COMPACT_BUILD // Excluded from App Clip #endif The consumer packages: Main app's package imports without trait: .package(path: "../UIComponents") App Clip's package imports with trait: .package(path: "../UIComponents", traits: ["COMPACT_BUILD"]) The problem: When building the main app target, the COMPACT_BUILD compiler condition is unexpectedly active — even though the main app's dependency chain never enables that trait. It seems like the trait enabled by the App Clip target is "leaking" into the main app build. I confirmed this by adding #error("COMPACT_BUILD is active") — it triggers when building the main app, which shouldn't happen. If I disable the App Clip target from the build scheme, the main app builds correctly with COMPACT_BUILD not defined. I am also able to build the App Clip separately. Environment: Xcode 26.2 swift-tools-version: 6.2 iOS 26.2 Questions: Is this expected behavior with Xcode's SPM integration? Are traits resolved workspace-wide rather than per-target? Is there a workaround to have different trait configurations for different targets consuming the same package? Or do I need to fall back to separate package targets (e.g., UIComponents and UIComponentsCompact) to achieve this? Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks!

Help: Compiled Timeline Issues
I have developed a fun living diorama world using Reality Composer Pro and XCode. Everything is as it should be, and it looks/works great ... until it does not. If I seem to make any change to any of the 10 timelines that I am using (all on the same scene, no nested scenes), running the app in simulator, device, and via testflight throws errors around compiled timelines, leading to the black screen of death. Every time I clean and run, the timelines in questions might change. Its very frustrating and impossible to track down. Heres are some examples. AssetLoadRequest failed because asset failed to load '/ (3661553931319769725 Timeline (RealityFileAsset)URL/file:///var/containers/Bundle/Application/F4408256-6014-4264-9E4B-F74AEF0EDE53/SantasVillage.app/RealityKitContent_RealityKitContent.bundle/RealityKitContent.reality/Timeline_779.compiledtimeline)' (failed to register asset) Asset / (13631856135570808851 AnimationLibraryAsset (RealityFileAsset)URL/file:///var/containers/Bundle/Application/F4408256-6014-4264-9E4B-F74AEF0EDE53/SantasVillage.app/RealityKitContent_RealityKitContent.bundle/RealityKitContent.reality/AnimationLibraryAsset_1.compiledanimationlibraryasset) failure: failed to register asset Asset 10430065658338454790 AnimationScene (RealityFileAsset)URL/file:///var/containers/Bundle/Application/F4408256-6014-4264-9E4B-F74AEF0EDE53/SantasVillage.app/RealityKitContent_RealityKitContent.bundle/RealityKitContent.reality/AnimationScene_14.compiledanimationscene failure: failed to register asset I went with recommended fixes of closing RCP > Clean Build Folder > Delete Derrived Date (multiple ways) > Re-Open Xcode > Reset Package Cache > Re-Open RCP via XCode > Make a Change > Save > Clean Build Folder Again > Run. Sometimes it works. Most times it does not. I then found my own little work-around, but its not always working as is literally costing me days of wasted time messing around with this. I will DISABLE all timelines, do the above clean method, rerun with no timelines, and it resolves. Then, turn on timelines ONE BY ONE and run until I get another error. Then, rebuild that timeline and nothing else. This is not sustainable. There must be some better way to do this? Or, perhaps I am doing something wrong? Please help if you can.
