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.

I am trying to upgrade my app to use Xcode 26 and I cannot get my tests to launch. I am trying to launch tests to the simulator, and I always get this error after 300 second timeout: "encountered an error (The test runner hung before establishing connection.)" There are no other errors getting logged. I can run to the same simulator just fine, and in Xcode 16 the tests launch with no issues. The tests also run fine on an actual iPhone. Thanks in advance.

Hi all, Has anyone else run into this issue in Xcode 26? I’m logged into my paid ChatGPT Plus account, but the Xcode integration doesn’t seem to recognize the subscription. After a short period of use, I get the following error: “Over daily limit. ChatGPT in Xcode will be unavailable for up to 24 hours. For higher limits, sign in with a paid ChatGPT account.” Since I’m already signed in with a paid account, this looks like either a bug or a limitation specific to Xcode. Is this expected behavior, or has anyone found a workaround to make Xcode properly recognize Plus accounts? Thanks in advance for any guidance.

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?

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).

I have Mac mini intel, and updated top Sequia 15.7.2 and updated Xcode to 26 and now it crashes on launch. I uninstalled and reinstalled and still crashes. I uninstalled and installed Xcode 16.4 and that crashes on launch also. I've looked all over for help but cannot find anything. Can anyone please help me with this?

Hi When attempting to upload a React Native app (version 0.77) we encountered the following error: ITMS-90426: Invalid Swift Support - The SwiftSupport folder is missing. Rebuild your app using the current public (GM) version of Xcode and resubmit it. If to check ipa folder we can see that content includes only 2 folders: Payload Symbols Could you please tell us why it does not include Swift Support folder? We tried to use XCode - 16.2 and 16.3 Thank you

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.

Hi there, ever since I updated to Xcode 26.1, I have been seeing Record UI Button that is showing up on the left hand side which I believe is a new feature. Is there a way to hide this button ? I am using Vim bind with relative line numbers, and now I can't see which line number I am in when writing test cases...

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?

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!

“Side Button Access” Capability cannot be found under capabilities and when trying to add the entitlement com.apple.developer.side-button-access.allow manually, I got the invalid entitlement error. Xcode: 26.2, MacOS: 26.2.

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.

I have been using Xcode Version 26.1.1 on macOS Tahoe Version 26.1. In VIM mode, whenever I quickly tap d twice, to delete the complete line, most of the time Xcode crashes. Is anyone else facing this issue? Should I move to any older version of Xcode or any other solve for this?

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

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.

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... My mac is M3 macbook pro, mac OS is 15.7.2 Anyone know how to sort it out, it is really annoying, can only use device for debug now.
