The Mac has an Intel chip and has Xcode 15.2 installed. After launching Xcode, the canvas interface keeps spinning and cannot display synchronously normally. The simulator also takes a long time to start. Seeking help to resolve this issue.

Hi everyone, I'm having trouble with Network Extensions capability not being included in my provisioning profiles. Here's my setup: Environment: Xcode 16.0 iOS Deployment Target: 17.0 Paid Apple Developer Program ($99/year) Problem: I'm trying to use NEHotspotConfiguration in my app, but getting this error: entitlement What I've done: ✅ Enabled "Network Extensions" in App ID capabilities ✅ Enabled "Access Wi-Fi Information" and "Hotspot" ✅ Created new provisioning profiles after enabling capabilities ✅ Cleaned build folder and rebuilt ✅ Using "Automatically manage signing" in Xcode Current status: App ID shows all capabilities are enabled Xcode shows Network Extensions capability is present But provisioning profiles still don't include the entitlement NEHotspotConfiguration fails with entitlement error Questions: Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is there a specific way to force Xcode to include the entitlement? Should I try manual provisioning profile creation? Are there any known bugs with Network Extensions in Xcode 16? Code I'm trying to use: } Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks,

I have the following code snippet with a simple map and map reader that shows a pin on the map when the user selects a location struct MapReaderTest: View { @State private var loc: CLLocationCoordinate2D? = nil var body: some View { MapReader { proxy in Map { UserAnnotation() if let loc { Marker(coordinate: loc, label: { Text("Marker") }) } } .onTapGesture { position in let position = proxy.convert(position, from: .local) loc = position } } } } This snippet compiles and works perfectly fine using Xcode version 16.4 building for iOS 18.0 and running on a device. This snippet also works for me when I build using Xcode 26 Beta and run in the canvas or simulator, however it does not work when I compile using Xcode 26 and run it on a physical device(I built and tested for both iOS 18.6 and iOS 26 Beta) Has anyone else had a similar issue / have any ideas for work arounds?

Xcode version 16.4 (16F6) now only supports uploading a 1024x1024 icon, but during archiving, it keeps prompting that a 120x120 icon is missing. Attempts to add the image in Assets didn't work. How can this issue be resolved?"

When I try to make a unit test target for my macOS app that uses Objective-C, running tests fails, and the debugging log shows a message "Creating more than one Application". If, on the other hand, when I create the unit test target, I select "None" as the target to be tested, and then add all my sources to that target, my tests work. So, I can get my testing done, but I think I must be doing something wrong. By the way, along with the error message, there is a stack crawl: 0 CoreFoundation 0x00007ff8140410aa __exceptionPreprocess + 242 1 libobjc.A.dylib 0x00007ff813b660b7 objc_exception_throw + 48 2 Foundation 0x00007ff814f19bd8 -[NSCalendarDate initWithCoder:] + 0 3 AppKit 0x00007ff817030062 -[NSApplication init] + 1718 4 XCTestCore 0x000000010774b0df -[XCTestDriver _createTestBundlePrincipalClassInstance] + 82 5 XCTestCore 0x0000000107749338 -[XCTestDriver _runTests] + 111 6 XCTestCore 0x000000010770f194 _XCTestMain + 126 7 libXCTestBundleInject.dylib 0x0000000106e8982d __copy_helper_block_e8_32s + 0 8 CoreFoundation 0x00007ff813fc9a91 __CFRUNLOOP_IS_CALLING_OUT_TO_A_BLOCK__ + 12 9 CoreFoundation 0x00007ff813fc99ca __CFRunLoopDoBlocks + 398 10 CoreFoundation 0x00007ff813fc883d __CFRunLoopRun + 898 11 CoreFoundation 0x00007ff813fc7e51 CFRunLoopRunSpecific + 560 12 HIToolbox 0x00007ff81da52f3d RunCurrentEventLoopInMode + 292 13 HIToolbox 0x00007ff81da52b84 ReceiveNextEventCommon + 199 14 HIToolbox 0x00007ff81da52aa8 _BlockUntilNextEventMatchingListInModeWithFilter + 64 15 AppKit 0x00007ff8170689d8 _DPSNextEvent + 858 16 AppKit 0x00007ff817067882 -[NSApplication(NSEvent) _nextEventMatchingEventMask:untilDate:inMode:dequeue:] + 1214 17 AppKit 0x00007ff817059ef7 -[NSApplication run] + 586 18 AppKit 0x00007ff81702e111 NSApplicationMain + 817 19 PlainCalc 0x00000001057d0a91 main + 65 20 dyld 0x00007ff813b93418 start + 1896

Hi, I am reaching out to seek assistance with a persistent code signing issue that is preventing our team from installing our iOS app, "Scoopz" (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/scoopz-real-life-real-video/id6449206831) on physical devices. We suspect there may be an issue with our Apple Developer account, as we have exhausted all standard troubleshooting steps without success. Below, I’ve provided details about the issue, the error logs, and the steps we’ve taken. Issue Description: When attempting to install the app on an iPhone using Xcode, we encounter the following error: Unable to Install “Scoopz: Debug” Domain: IXUserPresentableErrorDomain Code: 14 Recovery Suggestion: Failed to verify code signature of /[REDACTED_PATH]/OurApp.app : 0xe8008018 (The identity used to sign the executable is no longer valid.) The app builds successfully to the iOS Simulator and can be released to the App Store without issues, but it fails to debug on physical devices. Steps Taken: Our team has attempted the following troubleshooting steps without resolving the issue: Verified that our Apple Developer account is active and our team membership is valid. Checked certificates in Keychain Access and the Apple Developer Portal, ensuring they are not expired or revoked. We created and installed new Apple Development certificates. Confirmed that the provisioning profile includes the target device’s UDID, is associated with a valid certificate, and is not expired. We regenerated and reinstalled the profile. We tried both xcode managed and manually installed profiles. Cleaned the Xcode build folder, deleted the app from the device, and rebuilt the project. Despite these efforts, the issue persists across our entire development team, leading us to believe there may be a problem with our Apple Developer account or its associated certificates/profiles. Request for Assistance: We kindly request your help to: Investigate any potential issues with our Apple Developer account that could be causing this code signing error. Verify the status of our certificates and provisioning profiles on Apple’s servers. Provide guidance on any additional steps or configurations needed to resolve the error. If necessary, suggest how we can escalate this issue for further investigation.

Hello, It seems Xcode 26 beta is lagging the OS releases, which is fine. However, how does one install a Beta N + 1 or N + 2 SDK into the older Xcode beta? I'd like to use iOS 26 Beta 8 from the Xcode 26 Beta 6 install I have. I have tried Settings/Components and Devices & Simulators but nothing Beta 7 nor 8 shows up there. Thanks! -- Greg Bolsinga

Hi everyone, I'm totally new to this and am just having fun making an app for myself. I'm attempting to get a broadcastupload extension working, but whatever i do i cant get the replaykit to work. I keep getting this error in xcode: Provisioning profile "Project v6 Broadcast Upload Development" doesn't include the com.apple.developer.replaykit.broadcast entitlement. What I've tried: Created separate App IDs for each target (Explicit App IDs, not Wildcard) Enabled App Groups capability on all three App IDs in Apple Developer Portal Selected the correct App Group for all App IDs Added App Groups capability in Xcode for all targets and all build configurations Created entitlements file with com.apple.developer.replaykit.broadcast: true for Broadcast Upload extension Recreated provisioning profiles multiple times Used manual code signing with correct certificates I'm completely lost. I reached out directly to apple developer support and they just told me to come here... Any help would be grgeatly appreciated.

I am trying to update an old UIKit/CoreData app and am (among other changes) adding CloudKit synchronization support. I enabled CloudKit (ie, set up a new CloudKit domain, enabled CloudKit, Background Mode Remote Notifications, and Push Notifications. When I did this, automatic code signing failed. (see attached for the messages). I tried creating and downloading a new provisioning profile, but that did not help. FB19742743 Can someone help me? I have absolutely no idea of what to do next to get this app signed (and hopefully back into the AppStore soon).

Hi everyone, I’ve run into a strange issue while building my app with Xcode 26 beta 6 (targeting iOS 26). When I include an app icon created using Icon Composer, the build time jumps to over 5 minutes. During this time, I noticed that a utility called AssetCatalogSimulatorAgent is consuming a significant amount of CPU. If I remove the Icon Composer-generated icon from my target, the build completes in about 40 seconds. This behavior is consistent across multiple builds. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a known workaround or optimization for icons created with Icon Composer? I’d love to keep using the new icon format, but the build time is becoming a real bottleneck. Thanks in advance!

Hi all, Has anyone else run into this issue in Xcode 26? I’m logged into my paid ChatGPT Plus account, but the Xcode integration doesn’t seem to recognize the subscription. After a short period of use, I get the following error: “Over daily limit. ChatGPT in Xcode will be unavailable for up to 24 hours. For higher limits, sign in with a paid ChatGPT account.” Since I’m already signed in with a paid account, this looks like either a bug or a limitation specific to Xcode. Is this expected behavior, or has anyone found a workaround to make Xcode properly recognize Plus accounts? Thanks in advance for any guidance.

I’m new to iOS development. Previously, I’ve worked with Python and Django, mainly using JetBrains PyCharm PRO. In PyCharm, I really benefit from plugins like "Rainbow Brackets" , which help a lot with readability and code navigation. As someone who wears glasses, I find such visual aids very helpful for reducing eye strain. While exploring Xcode, I noticed that similar built-in features or up-to-date plugin support seem limited. Considering Apple’s strong focus on accessibility and user experience, I was a bit surprised by this. With Xcode 26 coming soon, I’m also wondering if there will be improvements in plugin support or built-in tools like Swift Linter and Swift Format. Are there any current tools or plugins you’d recommend to fill these gaps?

Hi. I have the following code with results in an error message // // ViewController.swift // Accelerometer // // import UIKit import CoreMotion let motion = CMMotionManager() class ViewController: UIViewController { @IBOutlet var xaxis: UILabel! @IBOutlet var yaxis: UILabel! @IBOutlet var zaxis: UILabel! let movementManager = CMMotionManager() override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() movementManager.startAccelerometerUpdates() movementManager.accelerometerUpdateInterval = 0.1 Timer.scheduledTimer(withTimeInterval: 0.1, repeats: true) { _ in if let data = self.movementManager.accelerometerData { // self.xaxis.text = String(data.acceleration.x) //self.yaxis.text = String(data.acceleration.y) //self.zaxis.text = String(data.acceleration.z) var xoutput: () = self.xaxis.text = String(data.acceleration.x) var xoutput = xoutput * 9.81 print(xoutput) } } } } I realize that it is not working since the whole value of "xoutput" has a string in it. Any advice on making it so it will be a Double? THANK YOU!

I’m trying to archive my app in Xcode but keep running into issues. When I attempt to archive, I see two errors: “Communication with Apple failed. Your team has no device from which to generate a provisioning profile. Connect a device to use or manually add a device ID in the certificate.” “No profiles were found” — Xcode can’t locate a matching iOS development provisioning profile. I’ve already added the device ID manually, set up my bundle identifier in Apple Connect (which was detected), and signed in with my Apple ID in Xcode. What steps should I take to resolve this? If there’s a thread, article, or anything that explains the fix, I will appreciate if you can share it as well. Also, is it common that I created the project, but my role shows as Admin instead of Account Holder? I tried to find a way to change my role from Admin to Account Holder, but I couldn’t find any resources. Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi everyone. I am trying to place accelerometer data on my iPhone App. However, when printing the data, the data is on top of each other and sometimes at the top of the screen. Labels are also abbreviated. I am clueless. I would appreciate any help. Below are photos. Thank you!!

My app (called "MuVis - Music Visualizer") passes the macOS App Store verification, but is failing the iOS verification. The errors indicate a problem with the Swift package github.com/Treata11/CBass.  I have been in touch with the CBass package developer (Treata11) as well as the original BASS developers (un4seen.com).  We think the problem is related to CBass swift-package config (which apparently works fine for mac, but doesn’t for iOS). The source code for the package is at the site package.  All of us think that the package is configured correctly in accordance with the latest Apple package development documentation.  Please tell us what is wrong with this package, and how to make it pass the iOS App Store verification. The Xcode error messages from validation testing include several items similar to: Upload Symbols Failed: inline-code The archive did not include a dSYM for the bass.framework with the UUIDs [18D5DBE2-3250-3EDE-B75C-D81B4E9F05AC, A88554A0-9087-3776-AC05-424B2D52F973, DEB682F5-ABBE-39D5-A0F8-8C01C14E178A]. Ensure that the archive's dSYM folder includes a DWARF file for bass.framework with the expected UUIDs. Since the MuVis app is long and complex, I have written a minimal reproducible example app (called "SwiftCBassDemo") for which source code is available at DemoApp. I am using macOS 15.6.1, Xcode 16.4, and iOS 18.6.2.

Hi all, I'm trying to install the Xcode 26 beta on Tahoe (M4 Mac mini). I tried the latest beta 6 both the universal and the apple silicon version, but at startup the system says the app is corrupted and will be deleted. I tried this multiple times - always with a fresh download. Then I downloaded the beta 5, which told me at startup that there is no macOS SDK available and then Xcode also quits. I want to update/test my macOS apps for the upcoming Tahoe and want to adapt for the new design. On my Mac is the Xcode version 16.4 installed and this is working correctly. In the last years I started with earlier versions of Xcode betas, but this year I'm a little bit more late. Are there any steps I missed or is this a known issue yet? I had never before so much trouble installing any beta. What can I do? Best regards, Jürgen Terpe

Right now, if I added a large swatch of contiguous code, the stage feature in Xcode is all or nothing — either I stage all the changes or I stage none of them. It would be a better UX if after spotting the isolates changes within that swatch that are final if I could select them and stage them. This way, it would be easy for me to easily green light all the changes I know are production ready, and then when I'm done, clearly see those which are not and easily be able to hone in on the changes that require some more thought.

There is a code review (split view) feature. Which is nice. But then when I see a change I want to stage and right click the blue bar in the gutter next to the change, I'm only presented with the option to discard the change, nothing else. So in order to stage I either have to go to the source control window (accessed via the project navigator) or close the code review tool, stage, and then go back to the code review tool.
