How to Download IOS 26 beta runtime simulator using "xcodebuild" tool?
How to download the runtime simulators for the most recent Xcode 26 beta? The current download command I’m using doesn’t seem to work, and I’m encountering the following issues: The runtime simulator download command (xcodebuild) requires the version number to be specified explicitly. I’ve tried multiple variations of version names/numbers but haven’t been able to identify the correct naming convention used by Apple for the Xcode 26 beta simulator runtimes. $ xcodebuild -downloadPlatform IOS -exportPath ~/Downloads -buildVersion 26 Finding content...iOS 26 is not available for download. $ xcodebuild -downloadPlatform iOS -exportPath ~/Downloads -buildVersion 26.0 Finding content...iOS 26.0 is not available for download. $ xcodebuild -downloadPlatform iOS -exportPath ~/Downloads -buildVersion 26.0 beta Finding content...iOS 26.0 is not available for download. $ xcodebuild -downloadPlatform iOS -exportPath ~/Downloads -buildVersion "26.0 beta" Finding content...iOS 26.0 beta is not available for download. $ xcodebuild -downloadPlatform iOS -exportPath ~/Downloads -buildVersion "26.0_beta" Finding content...iOS 26.0_beta is not available for download. $ xcodebuild -downloadPlatform iOS -exportPath ~/Downloads -buildVersion 26.0_beta Finding content...iOS 26.0_beta is not available for download.

Xcode 26: `IDERunDestination: Supported platforms for the buildables in the current scheme is empty` repeatedly logged when running tests from `.xctestrun` file
We are seeing repeated occurrences of the following log line in test runs triggered via .xctestrun files on iOS 26: IDERunDestination: Supported platforms for the buildables in the current scheme is empty. This line is printed n number of times after a test fails, significantly increasing test execution duration (2–3 minutes extra in some cases). The issue does not occur when tests are built and run together from Xcode directly — it’s specific to .xctestrun-based executions using xcodebuild test-without-building. Steps to Reproduce: Use Xcode 26 to build a sample XCTest target (we used a simple UI test project). Locate the generated .xctestrun file under DerivedData/.../Build/Products/.... Run tests using: xcodebuild -xctestrun /path/to/sample.xctestrun \ -destination "id=<device_id>" \ test-without-building Observe the logs during test failure. Observed Behavior: The log line IDERunDestination: Supported platforms for the buildables in the current scheme is empty appears multiple times. The test cleanup and teardown phase takes significantly longer (2–3 minutes). Expected Behavior: The log should appear once or not at all. Test cleanup time should remain consistent. Additional Information: Affects only iOS 26 devices and .xctestrun-based runs. Not reproducible on iOS < 26. Xcode 26 and 26.x beta versions tried. Reproducible both locally and on CI systems using real devices. Same .xctestrun file, when used on older OS versions, does not cause delay.

SwiftData error: NSKeyedUnarchiveFromData' should not be used to for un-archiving and will be removed in a future release
I am using SwiftData for my model. Until Xcode 15 beta 4 I did not have issues. Since beta 5 I am receiving the following red warning multiple times: 'NSKeyedUnarchiveFromData' should not be used to for un-archiving and will be removed in a future release This seems to be a CoreData warning. However, I am not using CoreData directly. I have no way to change the config of CoreData as used by SwiftData. My model just uses UUID, Int, String, Double, some of them as optionals or Arrays. I only use one attribute (.unique).

Unable to launch + Attach to Mac Widget (Sonoma + Xcode 15)
Attempting to launch a widget in Debug mode on Sonoma from Xcode 15 is failing with the following message: attach failed (Not allowed to attach to process. Look in the console messages (Console.app), near the debugserver entries, when the attach failed. The subsystem that denied the attach permission will likely have logged an informative message about why it was denied.) Looking in console I see this message: macOSTaskPolicy: (com.apple.debugserver) may not get the task control port of (MacGalleryWidget) (pid: 1851): (MacGalleryWidget) is hardened, (MacGalleryWidget) doesn't have get-task-allow, (com.apple.debugserver) is a declared debugger(com.apple.debugserver) is not a declared read-only debugger What Xcode settings should I be looking at to rectify this? I suspect I may have something that's out of whack.

macOS 26.0 Tahoe + Xcode 26.0.1 Simulator causes system-wide audio distortion
After upgrading to macOS 26.0 Tahoe and Xcode 26.0.1, I’ve noticed an issue with audio playback whenever the iOS Simulator is running. Device: MacBook Pro 13" (2020, Intel, 16GB RAM, 500GB SSD) Issue: Any sound played on the Mac (system sounds, music, videos) begins to break/distort once the Simulator is active. App Sounds: If the app running inside the Simulator plays audio, that audio also breaks/distorts. Previous Version: This issue did not occur on macOS Sequoia 15 or with Xcode 16. Everything was working fine before the upgrade.

Unable to debug Memory Graph in Xcode: "an unknown error occurred launching the helper task"
I am not able to use the Debug Memory Graph tool as well as Leaks instrument inside Xcode to debug my project. I'm running my project on physical iOS device on running 18.3 version and I tested the project on two different MacBooks running Xcode 16.3 and 16.1. On both the same problem persists. I have also reinstalled the project on the device and tried restarting all devices and cleared DerivedData. Nothing helped.

No new Xcode beta Since 16.2 Release on Dec 11
Not a question, but a surprise. Did I miss something, but apparently there has been no new beta release (16.3) since Release of 16.2 on Dec 11. 2 months without betas is really unusual (in fact, it never happened and usually, next beta n+1 is even released before the final release of version n). So does that mean 16.3 will be a major update ? Wait and see.

Xcode Cloud: All Targets Suddenly Timeout During Archive
Hi everyone, Starting today, my Xcode Cloud CI workflow can no longer successfully build iOS/macOS/visionOS targets. The Archive step does not report any errors, but the xcodebuild command hangs indefinitely and eventually fails with the following message: The step invocation hit a user timeout. The xcodebuild archive invocation timed out. No activity has been detected on stdout, stderr or the result bundle in 30 minutes. My iOS and macOS targets can still be built, but the build time has increased by 2-3x compared to before. That's interesting. After I removed the visionOS target, the iOS target also failed to build. Additionally, since today, I’ve noticed a significant increase in network-related errors in Xcode Cloud. There have been multiple failures to download dependencies from Homebrew or GitHub. I have confirmed that CI versions which previously built successfully are now failing, while running the same build commands locally works fine. Based on these observations, I suspect there may be an issue with the Xcode Cloud environment itself. Has anyone else encountered similar problems? Any suggestions or updates would be appreciated! Thanks!

Developer app on the Mac doesn't play videos in full screen
Hi, Problem When playing videos on the Developer app on the Mac, there is no full screen button for the video. So it is not possible to play the video in full screen. Note I am not referring to the app going into full screen, the issue is with there is no option to play the video in full screen. Environment OS: macOS 26.2 (25C56) Developer app: Version 10.8.3 (1083.3.1) Feedback FB21343934 Recording Question Are others also facing this issue? Is there a workaround? Suggestion This seems to be recurring problem that seems get broken with app / OS releases. Please write some UI tests to ensure the full screen button is present. Would really appreciate if this gets fixed.

Forbidden request when using API in Codemagic( Unable to find a team with the given Content Provider ID )
Failed to fetch certificates: This request is forbidden for security reasons - Unable to find a team with the given Content Provider ID '72df6041-c291-4d95-b690-2a3b75ff72f6' to which you belong. Please contact Apple Developer Program Support. https://developer.apple.com/support I have already confirmed that: All API keys were generated correctly. All required roles and permissions have been assigned in App Store Connect. To confirm my doubt, I requested api key from a fellow developer, and that worked in CodeMagic without throwing an error. Could you please help me figure out why the given Content Provider ID is not being recognized? Thank you.

iOS15 on Xcode26 / Symbol not found: _SKStoreProductParameterAdNetworkSourceIdentifier
Below is an English version of your post, ready to copy-and-paste into the Apple Developer Forums: I’m seeing a crash in Xcode 26 beta 3 whenever the StoreKit symbol SKStoreProductParameterAdNetworkSourceIdentifier is present while running on an iOS 15 simulator. Steps to reproduce Install Xcode 26 beta 3. Create any iOS app and run it on an iOS 15 simulator (device model doesn’t matter). Add the following code anywhere and run: override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() if #available(iOS 16.1, *) { print("SKStoreProductParameterAdNetworkSourceIdentifier: \(SKStoreProductParameterAdNetworkSourceIdentifier)") } } The project builds successfully, but before the #available(iOS 16.1, *) check is reached, the app crashes with: Symbol not found: _SKStoreProductParameterAdNetworkSourceIdentifier When I build the same project with Xcode 16.4 and launch it on an iOS 15 simulator, it runs without crashing. Investigation so far Because SKStoreProductParameterAdNetworkSourceIdentifier is just an NSString, I could substitute the string literal "SKStoreProductParameterAdNetworkSourceIdentifier" as a temporary workaround, but that doesn’t feel like a proper fix. The symbol is still declared in both SDKs: /Applications/Xcode-16.4.0.app/.../StoreKit.framework/Headers/SKAdNetwork.h:48: SK_EXTERN NSString * const SKStoreProductParameterAdNetworkSourceIdentifier API_AVAILABLE(ios(16.1)) API_UNAVAILABLE(macos, watchos, visionos); /Applications/Xcode-26.0.0-Beta.3.app/.../StoreKit.framework/Headers/SKAdNetwork.h:48: SK_EXTERN NSString * const SKStoreProductParameterAdNetworkSourceIdentifier API_AVAILABLE(ios(16.1)) API_UNAVAILABLE(macos, watchos, visionos); So the symbol hasn’t been removed in the beta SDK. Given that the code is wrapped in #available(iOS 16.1, *), I don’t believe the sample itself is at fault. Questions Could this be a bug in Xcode 26’s availability checking or linker? Has anyone else encountered the same issue or found a more robust workaround? Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
