How to safely rename project Xcode 8?

I followed a bunch of instructions to rename a project and failed miserably. Can anyone guide me as to how to do this in a safe, recommended way, with a clean start?

Thank for for that. I had been wary to try another source without asking here first because it had not worked.

The answer you linked me to in Stack Overflow worked for me except that I had created a working copy of the project (it had not been previously under source control). When I cleaned and rebuilt the project after renaming, I am getting several warnings regarding assets missing from the working copy.

Do you by any chance know how to resolve this?

Have you a list of missing assets ?


For each missing asset, you should :

- in the original project :

right click on the asset name to reveal in Finder

- then insert the asset by dragging into the copy project (new name) : answer "copy resources" when asked


That should solve it.

use sed or perl from the command line
