Howdy!
New Apple developer here, running a MBP 2023 M2. A year ago I used Xcode to test a Flutter app I was working on, as well as a Godot app I was making. It worked fine to open, edit, and test those projects in the simulator.
Today I attempted to open Xcode and it would never load past the following window:
I let it sit there and spin for probably 30 minutes while I did other tasks, but it never changed.
Here is what I tried after discovering the issue:
- Google various generic terms relating to "No selection" and "xcode". Restart the computer. No change.
- Update MacOS. I hadn't updated to the latest 14.5. No change afterward when opening Xcode.
- Update Xcode. I updated to the latest version in the App Store 15.4. No change after update.
- Remove Xcode (move app to Trash from Applications, remove Library/Developer, empty trash) and fresh install from App Store. No change when opening Xcode.
- Reinstall command line tools (since they were removed in step 3) "xcode-select --install" and then used the UI to continue install. No change.
I can't really think of what else to do, as there's not a lot of information to go off of. I don't even know what that loading screen is supposed to show when it works (maybe a list of recent projects?). All options on the Xcode menu bar and the window itself are unresponsive and just show the spinning beach ball as the cursor.
What else can I do to 'reset' Xcode, and/or to clear out whatever files are preventing it from loading?
Thank you in advance!
