Whenever I hit play on my app to test it on the Mac the register .app part starts taking more than 15 minutes, this is severely impacting my work. There's no indication on what's wrong and how can I fix this.

Hi everyone, I’m experiencing a persistent issue when trying to download the iOS Simulator Runtime 26.1 on Xcode (version 26.1). The download always fails with the following error Download failed due to a bad URL. (Catalog download for com.apple.MobileAsset.iOSSimulatorRuntime) Domain: com.apple.MobileAssetError.Download Code: 49 I’m located in Brazil, so I initially thought it might be region-related, but I’ve already tried several attempts to fix it, including: Using VPNs for the US and Europe Installing the Xcode 26.2 beta Downgrading Xcode to earlier versions Reinstalling the same version of Xcode Restarting Xcode and my Mac Switching networks Clearing simulator support/device files Unfortunately, nothing has resolved the issue. Is anyone else facing this problem? Does anyone know a workaround or a manual way to download/install the iOS 26.1 simulator runtime? Thanks in advance!

dSYM size became thrice for builds generated via xcode 26 compared to xcode 16. These are all release builds.

This is from Mac OS 26 or the prior version. It seems to be trying to include XCTest, but its no where in the build phases or frameworks? Anyone seen this issue?

‌Using Xcode 26, the built package encounters device compatibility issues — while it installs successfully on supported iPhone devices, but it crashes immediately upon launch and cannot run normally.‌‌In previous versions of Xcode, the same "minimum deployment" setting in the project did not cause such compatibility issues.‌ The app built with Xcode 26 shows the following behavior when installed and tested on various devices:‌ iPhone6p iOS12.5.8 fails to run 2.iPhone6 iOS11 fails to run 3.Iphone6 iOS12.5.7 fails to run 4.iPhone7 iOS12.1.3 ok 5.iPhoneX iOS 12.2 ok 6.iphone6s plus iOS10.3.1 ok 7.iphoneXS. iOS 12.1.4 ok 8.iPhone11 iOS 13.6.1 ok 9.iPhone7. iOS 13.7 ok We have tested and found that an iPhone 6s Plus running iOS 10.3.1 can normally run the app. We would like to know whether apps built with Xcode 26 are inherently incompatible with iPhone 6 and older devices. Has Xcode 26’s underlying build environment removed full support for the A8 chip, resulting in binary files containing instructions or memory models that older devices cannot parse? ‌Looking forward to your reply‌.

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

GCC's shared library constructor technique has ceased working with the tool chain provided with XCode 16.4 and XCode 26. This is the GCC attribute: __attribute__((constructor)) Example use: void aConstructor(void) __attribute__((constructor)); void aConstructor(void) { printf("Called aConstructor\n"); } In our case aConstructor() was not called.

I'm trying to create a preview for my live activities when it's stale, so I created a preview provider. I followed some examples, but XCode says I'm missing preview context. Am I doing something wrong? I tried adding .previewContext(WidgetPreviewContext(family: .systemSmall)) but that doesn't seem to work.

Hello Apple Developer Community, I'm experiencing an issue with file download functionality in the iOS Simulator after updating to Xcode 26 RC (Build 17A321). Issue Description: When attempting to download files in the iOS Simulator via Safari, the download prompt appears correctly, but after tapping the 'Download' button, files are not being saved to the Files app. The download appears to do nothing with no error message, no indication of failure, but the file simply doesn't appear in Downloads or anywhere in the Files app. Environment: Xcode Version: 26.0 RC (17A321) iOS Simulator Version: 26.0 RC (23A339) Device Simulated: iPhone Air Steps to Reproduce: Open Safari in the iOS Simulator Navigate to a downloadable file (PDF, ZIP, etc.) Tap to initiate download Download prompt appears as expected Tap the 'Download' button Check the Files app → Downloads folder (empty) Expected Behavior: Files should download normally as they do on physical devices and as they did in previous Xcode versions. Actual Behavior: The download prompt dismisses after tapping 'Download', but no file appears in the Files app. No error message is shown, and there's no indication that the download failed, it simply appears as if nothing happened. Additional Information: Downloads work correctly on physical device (iOS 26 RC 23A340) This functionality worked properly in previous Xcode versions I have created a bug report to Feedback assistant: FB20190927 Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I am missing device support for IOS 18.5 in xcode. I tried installing xcode 16.4, xcode 16.4 beta and xcode 26 beta 2 but none of them generated folder for 18.5. Is this happening only for me or everyone. Please provide me 18.5 folder if anyone has it. I would appreciate a lot.

I've created a new project in Xcode. I'm running the Xcode 16.4 and MacOS 15.5. I'm trying to run my barebones project on my iPhone 16 (I'm just getting started). I turned on developer mode on my iPhone and went through the whole process. But in the Signing & Capabilities of my project under status I see two errors... There is a problem with the request entity A device with number 'XXXX8801C' already exists on this team. Provisioning profile "iOS Team Provisioning Profile: [MyBundleID]" doesn't include the currently selected device "My iPhone" (identifier XXXX8801C). I noticed in the devices on the developer portal that my device is showing as "Processing." I feel ike it's stuck. But I can't figure out how to clear it all out and try again. It's been 24 hours since this error came up. I've tried to clear trusted computers on the iPhone. I've deleted the "Derived Data" folder. I've removed my developer account from Xcode and added it again. I've restarted both my Mac and my iPhone multiple times. I've noticed it asked to authorize my computer twice. When I clear the authorized computers and then plug the phone back in it asks twice again. So I'm not sure if this is the issue? No idea why it asks twice but I'm only ever able to respond to the second request as the first request gets blocked in the UI by the second requests if that makes sense? I'm also not able to turn off developer mode on my iPhone. The switch isn't there as the docs state it should be. So again, I feel like this is the phone and the developer portal stuck causing the problem. Note: I saw someone else had encountered this problem and I replied to it and boosted it. But it looks like it was posted in 2017? Hence this new post.

I am having similar problems to this guy on Stack Overflow over a year ago: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/77627852/functions-of-iouserscsiperipheraldevicetype00-class-in-scsiperipheralsdriverkit There are also a few questions on this forum about this object, none of which have answers. I can get my driver to match and instantiate, but nobody calls my UserDetermineDeviceCharacteristics (which does nothing, just returns kIOReturnSuccess) I can attempt to call UserSuspendServices(), UserResumeServices() or UserReportMediumBlockSize() and all of them return kIOReturnUnsupported. It doesn't matter if I've unmounted the disk or not. Is the custom driver supposed to be instantiated beside the kernel's IOSCSIPeripheralDeviceType00, or should it replace it? What should its IOProviderClass be? What should its IOClass be - IOUserService, or something else? see FB19678139 and FB19677920

Hi I've downloaded the latest version of Xcode 14.2 but when I run the app in Simulator I can only test it on iOS16.2 Is there a way to run it in 16.3?

With Xcode 14, the device selection on the bottom of the storyboard canvas has changed, and the iPhone 12 and 13 mini screens are no longer there, as well as there only being one model of iPad. Is there a way to add more devices to this section? I have simulators installed for these devices, and this is the way I've been checking compatibility so far, but this is not sustainable. I appreciate any help that you can give me.

I started a project targeting macOS and used Storyboard app lifecycle. I also used Xcode Previews in this project. If I: Keep the entry point of the main storyboard to a window controller. (as default setup in macOS), Turn the Xcode window into full-screen, That window controller would pop up its window every time Xcode Previews refreshes. I tested in Xcode 26.3 RC and many versions before.

Build succeed,but app startup failed.
