Hi, I'm running Xcode version 26.0.1 (17A400). Every time I restart Xcode, it seems to not recognize my Claude login anymore, and I have to go through the whole authentication flow again. It's quite annoying. Does anyone have a solution for it?

Getting macOS app icons from Icon Composer working in Xcode 26.x appears to have caused widespread confusion. I've certainly had more than one headache from it. Here's what works for me: Drag the .icon file from Icon Composer into the Xcode Project Navigator, dropping it at the same level as Assets.xcassets — not inside it. In the Project Navigator, click the top-level project item to open the Project Editor. Select your app target and open the App Icons and Launch Screen section. Enter the icon name (without the .icon extension) in the App Icon field. In that same section, leave App Icons Source unchecked. Go to the Build Phases tab and expand Copy Bundle Resources. Delete the Assets.xcassets entry, leaving only the .icon file. Clean the build folder (⇧⌘K) and run. Your icon should now appear in the Dock. It appears that Icon Composer icons and even the presence of the Asset Catalog icons in Copy Bundle Resources are mutually exclusive right now. Including the Asset Catalog appears to suppress the Icon Composer icon. Removing it lets the Icon Composer icon through. Note: If your app depends on other assets in the Asset Catalog, this approach won't work for you. In that case, fall back to the traditional method — export all required sizes from Icon Composer and import them into the Asset Catalog. Hopefully Apple addresses this conflict soon.

今天在Xcode上使用codeX，直接给我报错了，报错原因是这个： Codex encountered an error: {"detail":"The 'gpt-5.2-codex' model is not supported when using Codex with a ChatGPT account."}

After updating to Xcode 26.4 (public release), I’m no longer able to paste from the Mac clipboard into the Simulator. Automatically Sync Pasteboard is on, and I have content on the clipboard, but paste doesn’t work—Cmd+V does nothing, and there’s no Paste option in the context menu. Is anyone else seeing this?

Hi everyone, yesterday I updated my macOS and Xcode to the latest versions and today I have the strangest thing: Canvas is always crashing whenever I click it, in any and all my Projects. The full Simulator works just fine; only the Preview Canvas crashes. All the crash reports say it's because of AXRemoteElement-BackgroundFetch, and ChatGPT says it's not because of my code. These are very simple Projects, just for experimentation. Nothing complex, just native code while I follow examples in a SwiftUI book. Anyone else having this issue?

I've recently installed 26.1 Beta 3 alongside stable 26.0.1 When building my app with 26.0.1 the final .ipa size is ~17mb, however after building my app with 26.1 Beta 3 the size has increased up to ~22mb The main difference is Assets.car blowing from 1.1mb to 5.6mb (or 8.6mb if I include all icons settings). Upon examining I've found new liquid glass .icon file duplicating itself multiple times as png variants (any, dark, tinted, etc). Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

I’m seeing a regression in Xcode 26.4 where Interface Builder will not allow connecting IBOutlets or IBActions. Symptoms: The usual gutter circle/dot does not appear next to IBOutlet / IBAction in the code editor Because of this, I cannot: drag from storyboard → code drag from code → storyboard The class is valid and already connected to the storyboard (existing outlets work) Assistant Editor opens the correct view controller file Important: The exact same project, unchanged, works perfectly in Xcode 26.3. I can create and connect outlets/actions normally there. ⸻ Environment Xcode: 26.4 macOS: 26.4 Mac Mini M4 Pro 64G Ram Project: Objective-C UIKit app using Storyboards This is a long-running, ObjC, project (not newly created) ⸻ What I’ve already tried To rule out the usual suspects: Verified View Controller Custom Class is correctly set in Identity Inspector Verified files are in the correct Target Membership Verified outlets are declared correctly in the .h file: @property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UILabel *exampleLabel; Opened correct file manually (not relying on Automatic Assistant) Tried both: storyboard → code drag code → storyboard drag Tried using Connections Inspector Clean Build Folder Deleted entire DerivedData Restarted Xcode Updated macOS to 26.4 Ran: sudo xcodebuild -runFirstLaunch Confirmed required platform components installed Reopened project fresh ⸻ Observations In Xcode 26.4 the outlet “connection circles” are completely missing In Xcode 26.3 they appear immediately for the same code Existing connections still function at runtime — this is purely an Interface Builder issue ⸻ Question The gutter circles appearance has always been flaky in Xcode over the 13+ years I've been using it but now with 26.4 they have completely disappeared. Has anyone else seen this in Xcode 26.4, or found a workaround? At this point it looks like a regression in Interface Builder, but I haven’t found any mention of it yet.

After updating to Xcode 26.4 the pasteboard sharing feature in the simulators doesn't work.

Took app and selected Archive. Selected Direct Distribution. Process completed. I selected export app. Could not elect the app to export since it was greyed out. Queried on both google and Claudie. Followed all the instructions and there is still no joy. Worked fine yesterday.

I cannot get a Jiggle on an iPhone 15 using the iOS 17.0 simulator. I cannot drag icons or widget around, only have the option to remove them. On both the iOS 17.0 and iOS 26.4 (running on an iPhone 17 simulator) There is nothing in my drawer for adding a widget, no system widgets either (attached screenshots). Just the Search Widgets bar that does have widgets in it. The system widgets are in the screen to the left of the home screen. I can put widgets I find through the search on the home screen. Although on the iOS 17 emulator no jiggle means no repositioning. May computer is running MacOS 25.4.1 and the latest versions of everything. I have asked AI, I have tried wipes, locking, unlocking, reseting, re-installing, light mode/ dark mode to refresh any cached images, trying to drag system widgets from the left side of the home screen, "a widget kit development mode option" in settings > developer on the iPhone and something using the command line for chronosd that never worked. The iPhone 17 simulator has been like this for a couple of weeks as that was when I started widget development. The iPhone 15 simulator was only downloaded and installed today. I only know there should be images on the "Widget Gallery" or "Widget Picker" from my son's iPhone Any help or suggestions would be appreciated, Thank you. iPhone 15 simulator running iOS 17.0 iPhone 17 simulator running iOS 26.4.1

I have been using Claude Agent with an Anthropic API Key in Xcode 26.3 for a while now. Recently it stopped working, giving me this error message: API Error (claude-opus-4-6): 400 The provided model identifier is invalid. I have tried relaunching Xcode, signing out and signing back in, changing the default model in the Claude configuration UI and nothing works. I've had to fall back on using the Claude Code CLI and the MCP server, which loses a lot of the value of Xcode/Claude integration.

Hello, I am experiencing an issue when trying to upload my app to App Store Connect via Xcode. I am the Account Holder and Admin of my Apple Developer account, and I can successfully log in to App Store Connect. My account appears correctly under “Users and Access” with full permissions. However, when attempting to distribute my app from Xcode (Product → Archive → Distribute App → App Store Connect), I consistently receive the following error: “App Store Connect access for ‘[my name]’ is required. Add an account in Accounts settings.” “No App Store Connect access for the team” I have already tried the following steps: Verified that my account has Account Holder / Admin role in App Store Connect Logged out and back into Xcode multiple times Removed and re-added my Apple ID in Xcode Restarted Xcode and my Mac Confirmed that my Apple Developer membership is active Checked that all Agreements, Tax, and Banking sections are completed Verified that Apple Distribution and Development certificates are created and valid Ensured the correct Team is selected in Signing & Capabilities Despite all this, the issue persists. It seems like Xcode is not correctly recognizing my App Store Connect access for the team. Could you please help investigate this issue or advise on how to resolve it? Thank you very much in advance.

My Claude Agent component version was 2.1.81, it prompted me for an update the other day from the original release version 2.1.59. But now that I've installed Xcode 26.4.1 it's back to thinking 2.1.59 is the newest version. With every Xcode release it feels like there's a new regression or weird surprise with coding intelligence (26.4 was Claude losing its OAuth token every 8 hours or so). It really feels like this stuff needs more eyes on it. Filed as FB22529202

We are seeing what looks like a signing / managed-capability mismatch for Contactless Pass Provisioning. Environment Team ID: S7AUTD2C2B Bundle IDs: com.swiftpass.ios com.swiftpass.ios.dev Xcode: 26.4 macOS: 26.4 Problem Our app has had Contactless Pass Provisioning approved by Apple for a long time, and builds were working until a few days ago. Without any intentional signing/capability changes on our side, Xcode started failing with the following error: Provisioning profile "Swiftpass prod Appstore" doesn't include the Contactless Pass Provisioning capability. Contactless Pass Provisioning capability needs to be assigned to your team and bundle identifier by Apple in order to be included in a profile. Observed behavior Xcode marks the relevant provisioning profiles as "Ineligible" in the profile selector. This affects both development/debug and release/App Store builds. If we remove Contactless Pass Provisioning from the app entitlements/capabilities, the exact same profiles immediately become eligible and the signing error disappears. Important detail The downloaded provisioning profiles already contain the entitlement that Xcode claims is missing. We verified the downloaded profile with: security cms -D -i /Users/sergej/Downloads/Swiftpass_prod_Appstore\(1\).mobileprovision and it contains: <key>com.apple.developer.contactless-payment-pass-provisioning</key> <array> <string>shareablecredential</string> </array> So the issue appears to be that the profile contents look correct the capability is still present in the developer portal but Xcode's eligibility check still says the profile does not include the capability What we verified Contactless Pass Provisioning is still enabled for the App ID in the Apple Developer portal Newly recreated / redownloaded profiles still contain the entitlement Both dev and distribution profiles are affected The behavior is reproducible across profile refreshes and local cleanup What we already tried Reinstalled Xcode Updated Xcode and macOS Updated command line tools Cleaned DerivedData Deleted local provisioning profile cache Refreshed/redownloaded profiles from Xcode Recreated provisioning profiles in the developer portal Removed and re-added the capability in Xcode Expected behavior If the downloaded provisioning profile contains com.apple.developer.contactless-payment-pass-provisioning, Xcode should treat that profile as eligible. Actual behavior Xcode reports that the capability is missing and marks the profile as ineligible, even though the entitlement is present in the downloaded profile. Question Has anyone seen this specific mismatch with Contactless Pass Provisioning or other managed capabilities? This currently looks like either: an Apple backend/App ID capability-assignment sync problem, or an Xcode eligibility-validation bug for managed capabilities Feedback Assistant ID: FB22439399. It contains screenshots that showcase the issue as well.

When I use Xcode 26 (0.1, 1) for debugging and hit a breakpoint, using "step over" causes the debugger to freeze at a random line of code. Clicking "Pause program execution" indicates that the line is being executed, but the breakpoint never exits, seemingly causing a freeze. The application on the simulator also becomes unresponsive. However, when I do not use breakpoints, my program runs smoothly, and debugging on a physical device does not cause any freezes. This issue only occurs with the simulator. I am using Xcode on Apple Silicon, and due to some third-party SDKs that depend on Rosetta, our app can only run on the Rosetta simulator. We did not encounter this issue when using Xcode 16.x for simulator debugging. The current situation with Xcode 26.x significantly reduces our development efficiency. What could be causing this, and is there a solution?

I'm running into an issue where it appears the product transaction is being cached and not showing a new iOS system popup dialog to confirm the purchase. This is affecting testing, and I need a solution to have iOS issue a new purchase transaction every time. Here's what happens, I call the following which always succeeds. try await product.purchase(options: [.appAccountToken(appToken)]) I'm signed into a developer sandbox account with a resubscribe every 5 minutes. After cancelling a subscription, I attempt to resubscribe using the same code as above. Frequently, the code executes without iOS showing the popup system dialog to confirm the purchaser. After waiting a period of time, iOS then resets itself and allows me to purchase again. What I want is an option the forces the iOS system confirm purchase dialog to show up every time the code executes. How do I fix this? iOs 26.4.1, iPhone 17 Pro.

Is anyone else experiencing the same problem as me? I've tried everything but nothing works. Can someone please help me?

Something happened with my Xcode 26.4 install, I've never had this happen before. I get Xcode 26.4 installed, but the simulators aren't installed. And nothing pops up to "install required simulators". In Devices & Simulators I click the + to install a new simulator, and the beachball just spins and Xcode becomes unresponsive. I've tried quitting and restarting Xcode, reinstalling it (using both xcodes command line tool and the app store), removing Xcode and reinstalling, rebooting after removing Xcode and before reinstalling. Not sure what to try next. Feels like something is left over from uninstalling that's hanging it up. But I've no idea what. I could use some Apple Xcode team help here.

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 debugging a CloudKit sharing issue in an iOS app that uses NSPersistent​Cloud​Kit​Container with Core Data backed sharing. The symptom is that collaboration/share creation appears to succeed locally, but the resulting CKShare never gets a server-backed URL. UICloud​Sharing​Controller therefore cannot proceed because share​.url remains nil. (I do see the UICloudSharingcontroller Dialog and am abble to select people to share, one executed the share icon in the message window just spins After adding extensive logging, it looks like the real problem is not the sharing UI itself, but that Core Data + CloudKit mirroring is already in a bad state before share presentation begins. What I am seeing: Repeated CloudKit import failures with CKError​.partial​Failure The partial failure always contains one stale share zone with: • CKError​.zone​Not​Found • server message: "​Zone does not exist" Core Data then repeatedly logs: • NSCloud​Kit​Mirroring​Delegate​Will​Reset​Sync​Notification​Name • reason: Zone​Deleted • followed by a full mirroring reset Only after that reset loop do I attempt to prepare the collaboration share fetch​Share(object:) returns a share record named cloudkit​.zoneshare participants is 1 but share​.url remains nil forever, even after polling for ~20 attempts / ~20+ seconds Representative log sequence: CoreData+CloudKit ... Fetch finished with error: <CKError ... "Partial Failure"... partial errors: { com.apple.coredata.cloudkit.share.33781809-778A-461C-ABAB-872746C8F80D:defaultOwner = <CKError ... "Zone Not Found" (26/2036); server message = "Zone does not exist"> }> NSCloudKitMirroringDelegateWillResetSyncNotificationName reason: 'ZoneDeleted' NSCloudKitMirroringDelegateDidResetSyncNotificationName reason: 'ZoneDeleted' Preparing collaboration share for cruise 'Share 658' Fetching existing collaboration share for cruise 'Share 658' Fetch existing collaboration share result: found record='cloudkit.zoneshare' url='nil' participants='1' You cannot get the URL of a share until it's been saved to the server Collaboration share URL polling attempt 1/20 ... ... Collaboration share URL polling attempt 20/20 ... Collaboration share 'cloudkit.zoneshare' never produced a URL Important detail: This stale-zone Zone ​Not ​Found / Zone​Deleted reset cycle happens before the collaboration flow starts, so it looks like sharing is running inside an already unhealthy mirroring state rather than causing the corruption itself. Questions: Is this a known failure mode where a deleted/stale Core Data CloudKit share zone can keep the mirroring delegate in a reset loop and prevent newly fetched/created CKShare objects from ever receiving a server URL? Is there an Apple-recommended way to recover from this in development besides deleting the app / resetting local data / clearing CloudKit development data? Is there any supported way to identify and purge stale share metadata or orphaned Core Data share zones without fully resetting the local store? If fetch​Share returns a CKShare whose record exists locally as cloudkit​.zoneshare but url stays nil, does that generally mean the share was never fully saved to the server, or can mirroring-reset churn itself prevent the URL from materializing? Environment: • iOS app • Core Data + NSPersistent​Cloud​Kit​Container • CloudKit sharing enabled • issue observed in development environment At this point my working theory is: • stale/deleted share zone in CloudKit development environment • NSPersistent​Cloud​Kit​Container import repeatedly hits zone​Not​Found • mirroring resets continuously • collaboration share can be fetched locally but never becomes server-backed enough to produce share​.url If anyone from Apple or anyone who has hit this exact Zone​Deleted reset loop has guidance on the correct recovery path, I’d appreciate it.
