Hello, I'm encountering a persistent issue when building my project with Xcode 26 and iOS 26. The console shows errors related to font file references that don't actually exist in my project. GSFont: file doesn't exist - "file:///private/var/containers/Bundle/Application/...../HiraginoKakuGothic.ttc" After investigation, I found that the issue originates from XIB files incorrectly referencing HiraginoKakuGothic.ttc: <customFonts key="customFonts"> <array key="HiraginoKakuGothic.ttc"> <string>HiraginoSans-W3</string> </array> </customFonts> The problem appears to be triggered when setting UILabel fonts to "ヒラギノ角ゴシック W3 16.0" in Interface Builder, which causes the XIB to reference HiraginoKakuGothic.ttc. Interestingly, when I create a new project and use the same fonts ("ヒラギノ角ゴシック W3 16.0"), it does NOT automatically reference HiraginoKakuGothic.ttc. Here's what I've tried: ①Changed both UILabels' fonts to system font ②Verified in XIB Source Code that the .ttc references were gone ③Cleaned Build Folder ④Cleared DerivedData ⑤Restarted Xcode ⑥Set the labels back to "ヒラギノ角ゴシック W3 16.0" ⑦Checked XIB Source Code again - the non-existent .ttc references reappeared Even if I manually remove the customFonts references from the source code, they get regenerated as soon as I make any font changes in Interface Builder. I've also noticed that Xcode 16.1 has the same underlying issue, though it doesn't produce the console errors that Xcode 26 does. This seems to be a long-standing XIB issue, possibly related to reference caching. While new projects aren't affected, existing projects continue to maintain these incorrect references. My questions: How can I permanently resolve this issue in my existing project? What's the potential impact of these incorrect font references? Is there a way to clean up these cached references without affecting the rest of the project? Any insights or workarounds would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

My MBP M1 Pro gets really hot. iOS 26.1 Simulator in Xcode 26.1 makes ReportCrash process run at 60-160% of CPU shows Activity Monitor. MacOS 26.1. I've reported this via Feedback Assistant: FB20918609. Is there a way to quit this process permanently? When I Force Quit this it opens again immediately. Only way to stop it is to quit Simulator. But then again, I need to use the Simulator.

ChatGPT in Xcode 26.1 is super slow for me. What used to complete in a batter f seconds is now taking tens of minutes. Context: M2 Pro MBP, Xcode 26.1, macOS 26.1. CPU stays under 50% while ChatGPT returns. Using the minimal setting. Tried restarting, have verified I have nothing running Electron, no other apps are running. ChatGPT returns fast for the displayed content but the preview window where it renders code per line takes a few seconds per line.

ChatGPT in Xcode 26.1 is super slow for me, anyone else? The response returns quickly but the preview window takes a few seconds per line. What it used to do in a few seconds on 26.0 now takes tens of minutes. Anyone else running into this and have suggestions? I'm using the minimal setting on a fast internet connection. M2 Pro MBP, macOS 26.1.

Since upgrading my iPhone 13 Pro Max to iOS 26, apps have become nearly impossible to debug. The recent update to iOS 26.1 has made this even worse. Going from app start to a fully rendered & responding screen takes <1 second on a Debug build when no debugger is attached, but with the debugger attached I get these times (measured manually with a stopwatch): First render: <1 second without debugger 5 seconds on USB debugger 30 seconds on wireless debugger Data loaded from webserver and UI responding: <1 second without debugger 19 seconds on USB debugger 5 minutes on wireless debugger! Doing an online speed test reports 55 Mbps for the phone and 60 Mbps on the MacBook, so I doubt it's my WiFi. Having a debugger attached used to make minimal difference on iOS 18, but the performance has tanked completely since the last major release. What happened?

My main app target builds fine and can run on Simulator without issue. Whenever I try to run a Preview, I get this error: == DATE: Monday, November 3, 2025 at 2:52:23 PM Pacific Standard Time 2025-11-03T22:52:23Z == PREVIEW UPDATE ERROR: SimulatorShutdownUnexpectedlyError: Simulator was shutdown during an update Simulator [F85A5AF1-F52C-4662-AFCD-762F87AF537D] failed to boot and may have crashed. This seems like it started happening after updating to MacOS 26. I've tried reinstalling all Simulators, tried on Xcode 26, deleted derived data, restarted Xcode and my Mac several times. What other troubleshooting steps can I take?

I didn't really find anything in Apple docs on how to debug my extension using Xcode (so not saying it doesn't exist). I found a current Stack post on it, with several devs all stuck. In 2024 someone said run the Preview Extension, select Finder as the test app, then in a Finder window select a file of the correct type and tap space. Nothin happens when I do this (I get the file icon showing). Suggestions most welcome!

We have the following step before running any tests on CI machine: xcrun simctl shutdown all && xcrun simctl erase all It was working perfectly before Xcode 26.1. On Beta 3 it was doing it for 15 min every time. When updated to RC1, the tests with cached build are fast (clean goes up to 10 sec), but the package tests clean is still going up to 15 min every time. We did xcrun simctl runtime dyld_shared_cache update --all as advised but it's helping only temporarily. Is this going to be fixed in the official release?

I'd like to start a subprocess from an Xcode extension. My prototype performCommandWithInvocation method looks like this: - (void)performCommandWithInvocation:(XCSourceEditorCommandInvocation *)invocation completionHandler:(void (^)(NSError * _Nullable nilOrError))completionHandler { NSTask*task= [[NSTask alloc]init]; [task setExecutableURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:@"/bin/sh"]]; //option A: [task setArguments:@[@"-c",@"echo hello from sh"]]; //option B: [task setArguments:@[@"-c",@"/usr/bin/python3 -c 'print(\"hello from python3\")'"]]; [task launch]; [task waitUntilExit]; int status=[task terminationStatus]; printf("status: %d\n",status); completionHandler(nil); } So there's two options there: option A, or option B. (Uncomment to taste.) Option A does work. /bin/sh starts, and runs echo, and it prints hello to its stdout. I was foolish enough to let this convince me that this whole thing might be a goer. Option B does not work. I get an error: xcrun error: cannot be used with in an App Sandbox. Which is annoying, as virtually all of the scripts I want to run are written in Python, and I'd quite like this to be an option. How do I fix this? I tried removing the App Sandbox settings from my extension, but then Xcode refused to load it. I added Read/Write permissions to all the File Access settings in the App Sandbox section, even though most of them sounded irrelevant, but no improvement. Then I ticked every tick box I could find. My extension can debug, it can JIT, library validation is off, it can use the camera and access my photos and read the audio and my contacts and open sockets in any direction it wants and goodness knows what else. But it seems it still can't run python. How do I make this work? --Tom

I'm having a lot of trouble getting my icon working with XCode26 and Icon Composer. <TL;DR> The icon sucks </TL:DR> Why does it suck? 4 main issues plague me when I compare the new icon with the existing icon. The colors are washed out. I can't have a transparent background. The size of the icon is wrong. I can't use the old icon on pre-Tahoe macs. It's Tahoe or bust! Here's a comparison between the two icons: If I add any Liquid Glass effects to the icon, it just looks bad. Any more of a gradient behind the image makes the image fade out. Adding specular highlights just throws a ring around the upper and lower sections that doesn't seem to fulfill any purpose. Blur doesn't seem to do anything. And I can't get rid of the background at all. It must be there. The biggest problem is the size. The new icon doesn't just look smaller, it is smaller! I measured the width and the new icon is 19.5% smaller. I did this by setting the finder view to 128x128, grabbing the screen shot, and using Acorn to measure the width from the left red edge to the right blue edge. The icns file is 256 pixels across which makes sense as I'm on a 4K monitor at 2x resolution. The icon file is 206 pixels. Doing the same with the finder set to 256x256 shows the same reduction. When I look at Icon Composer, it's showing me that the icon is fitting in perfectly with the guidelines. The graphic artist I hired years ago did a great job! So somehow there is a border being added to the icon file that shrinks the image down, and I can't get rid of it nor make the icon bigger. So I'm stuck. I've tried the various tricks to get both the icns and icon files to be added to the build such that pre-Tahoe macs see the old icon, and it either breaks on Tahoe or breaks on the pre-Tahoe. I can't get both. I don't think there's a solution to this, I'm just documenting my frustrations. The Mac was fine before this, why change something that works?

I often use a Wi-Fi network where: Whatever mechanism Xcode uses to automatically discover a previously paired iOS device seems to be blocked (the Devices and Simulators window shows "Browsing on the local area network for [iPhone]" and never proceeds), but I can connect to the iOS device from my Mac if I know its IP address, such as by pinging it The same hardware/software configuration works with wireless Xcode connections on a different Wi-Fi network. Thus I'm wondering if there's any functionality that allows the IP address to be manually entered into Xcode to avoid needing to connect a cable from my Mac to my iPhone during development. Searching around seems to suggest this existed at some point in the past but I can no longer find this in a current version of Xcode. Or if there are any other workarounds, although I can't modify the network itself as it's not my network.

Hey, is it possible to test with an Xcode test build if the subscription notifications are correctly being sent to the backend? Currently nothing appears on my backend after subscribing. For some reason i can also subscribe multiple times to the same product. It looks like nothing is being saved anywhere which is why I also can't cancel a test subscription. All of this was fairly easy and possible when setting up the google play version of our app.

In my code, I used the newly added class AssetPackManager in Xcode 26. When compiling with Xcode 16, it would report an error saying "Cannot find 'AssetPackManager' in scope". Swift cannot use __IPHONE_OS_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED. How to solve this problem?

I'm running a swift script that is emitting warning lines like this /Users/work/Documents/QuGame/QuGame/BoardTurnView.swift:1:1: warning: [dead-code] Debug-only symbol static SimpleTurn.== infix(SimpleTurn, SimpleTurn) -> Swift.Bool /Users/work/Documents/QuGame/QuGame/DataNotifications+PreviewData.swift:1:1: warning: [dead-code] Debug-only symbol DataNotifications.(addConversation)(to: QUBoardModel, local: GKPlayer, opponent: GKPlayer, texts: [Swift.String]) -> () /Users/work/Documents/QuGame/QuGame/DataNotifications+PreviewData.swift:1:1: warning: [dead-code] Debug-only symbol DataNotifications.loadBlankBoard() -> () These are correctly formatted for Xcode to detect the filename, line and columns. ` Showing Recent Issues [dead-code] Debug-only symbol static SimpleTurn.== infix(SimpleTurn, SimpleTurn) -> Swift.Bool [dead-code] Debug-only symbol DataNotifications.(addConversation)(to: QUBoardModel, local: GKPlayer, opponent: GKPlayer, texts: [Swift.String]) -> () [dead-code] Debug-only symbol DataNotifications.loadBlankBoard() -> () However, when the script is run as part of the post-actions, Xcode doesn't support clicking on the warning to take you to the file.

In macOS, when using UNMutableNotificationContent to send notifications, clicking on the notification (or the buttons on the notification) will automatically activate the window. How can this be prevented? Clicking on the notification only triggers the click event and does not activate the window.

This whole time I was convinced that Apple just re-bound my favorite keyboard shortcut to something else in Xcode 26 and I just needed to find it and re-bind it, but it looks like they've gotten rid of it altogether and I'm losing my mind. For many years, selecting a type in the Open Quickly menu (Shift-Command-O) and hitting Shift-Option-Enter would bring up a chooser that would let you move a cursor around and select which open pane to open the file in (or create a new pane.) It was so useful and made working in Xcode so fast and it really seems like it's gone for good. Has this behaviour been changed? I don't see it mentioned in "What's New in Xcode 26?"
