When I create a new tvOS game and run the default project the simulator window appears but nothing is shown. When I create a MultiPlatform Game project and run the demo project for AppleTV the simulator work correctly. I do not get any errors just a blank screen. Also clicking on the Home icon in the simulator or the actual AppleTV does nothing. Drew

Sorry if this is a dumb question. I’m still a beginner. I created an Xcode Playground app with Microphone and Speech Recognition capabilities enabled, along with a backup Info.plist. However, when running the app on Mac Catalyst, a real device, or the iOS and iPadOS simulators, it crashes right after the Speech Recognition permission popup and again after the Microphone permission popup. For extra context, the app initially worked fine in the Swift Playgrounds app, but that environment uses an outdated SDK, so it no longer supports some of the features I’ve implemented. I’m also struggling to find clear, beginner-friendly documentation that explains how AVAudioEngine works, which is making it hard to understand what’s going wrong and how to debug it.

I’m seeing what looks like a change or possible bug in Xcode when creating a new Swift Playground. When I create a Swift Playground using Xcode (File → New → Playground), the project is generated without an Assets folder. I’ve reproduced this multiple times with fresh Playgrounds to rule out user error and the folder is consistently missing. Previously, new Playgrounds included an Assets catalog by default, which makes this behavior surprising.

Hi, I have a recurrent problem with an Xcode workspace that I cannot figure out how to solve: When I command-click a symbol (or press ctrl-cmd-J) to find its definition, and when that definition is in a header file belonging to a custom static library, Xcode opens a header located in the derivedData folder rather than in the project's source codes. The exact location of this file is not in the main 'Build' folder but rather in a folder that seems dedicated to indexing: derivedData/myProject/Index.noIndex/Build/Products/Debug/Include/theHeader.h Consequently the file opened by Xcode is uneditable, I have to close it and reopen the source using another method. Even when the correct header is already opened, and I try again, Xcode reopens the wrong file so that it's opened twice with different paths. In the config file of the main application project, I reference the sources of these static libraries like this: HEADER_SEARCH_PATHS = ${SRCROOT}/myLibrary1/Sources ${SRCROOT}/myLibrary2/Sources ${SRCROOT}/myLibrary3/Sources However, removing this doesn't fix the issue and I don't see any other related-settings. Any idea to fix this annoying issue would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Hi; Here is a simple program that reads a file and counts number of 1s bits in it. The file it reads, simple.txt, is a static text file, resides in the file system, and nothing is touching it during the program execution. The file's length is 436 bytes. When the program is run in the terminal it produces consistent results. Each run counts 1329 1s bits. It behaves differently when run in Xcode. A simple command-line tool project having a single file. Running the program multiple times, via Command-R, produces something strange. That is each execution randomly produces one of two results. One is expected 1329 1s bits, another one shows 1333 1s bits. That is it counts four bits more. Again, each run randomly produces one of those two results. And it happens only when I run the program in Xcode. I tried a different sample text file and experienced the same behavior, but the difference in 1s bits count was five bits. Any idea of how this behavior can be explained? func countOnes(in byte: UInt8) -> Int { var nOnes = 0 var mask: UInt8 = 0x1 while mask != 0 { if (byte & mask) > 1 { nOnes += 1 } mask <<= 1 } return nOnes } func countOnes(in buffer: UnsafeMutableRawBufferPointer, length: Int) -> Int { var nOnes = 0 for byte in buffer[0...length] { nOnes += countOnes(in: byte) } return nOnes } var fd = try FileDescriptor.open("sample.txt", .readOnly) var buffer = UnsafeMutableRawBufferPointer.allocate(byteCount: 4096, alignment: 4) var nBytes = try fd.read(into: buffer) var nOnes = 0 while nBytes > 0 { nOnes += countOnes(in: buffer, length: nBytes) nBytes = try fd.read(into: buffer) } buffer.deallocate() try fd.close() print(nOnes) My machine Darwin MacBookPro 24.6.0 Darwin Kernel Version 24.6.0: Wed Oct 15 21:08:19 PDT 2025; root:xnu-11417.140.69.703.14~1/RELEASE_ARM64_T8103 arm64 macOS Sequoia 15.7.2 Xcode 26.1.1 (17B100) Thanks, Igor

I've been working on UI Tests for a month or two and things have been great. But I believe there was a recent update to Xcode [running Version 26.2 (17C52)] and since then about 80% of the time when I try to view the test results so I can see the screenshots and video, Xcode crashes hard and I have to open it again. I've tried cleaning the Build folder and Derived Data and all sorts of stuff like that. Restarted Xcode, restarted my computer, etc. Any idea of how I can avoid these crashes?

Our apps, such as iCMTGIS PRO, provides the ability for users to open a job file received as an email attachment. Our apps use application:openurl:option to get the URL for the job file (*.pmp). We use [URL path] to convert it to NSString format. Then we use fopen to read the .pmp job file in "read only" mode. On iPad Air (5th generation) running iOS Version 18.6.2, our apps are able to read the .pmp job file. However, on iPhone 11 running iOS: 26.2, using fopen to read the .pmp file, we get a NULL value and are not able to correctly read the .pmp file.

Hello, I’ve been experiencing a persistent issue in Xcode since version 26.0, and it is still present in 26.2. When using the split view to display two files side by side, the area in the top‑right corner of the window (the inspector / options panel) starts flickering continuously. This happens regardless of whether I’m using the light or dark theme, and even with the Liquid Glass effect disabled in macOS settings. None of these changes have any impact on the issue. I have already submitted a bug report through Xcode (Feedback Assistant), but the issue is still present as of today. The flickering makes the interface difficult to use and visually very distracting. I’ve attached a video to clearly show the issue. I will review the attachment at the time I publish this post. Thanks in advance for any help or feedback.

Apple made them both, and for some reason they are acting like each is speaking a foreign language. Once you plug the iPad in, shouldn't the "trust this computer" kick in and allow the iMac to turn on developer mode? I'm the dumbest person in the world when it comes to Code, but this is a no brainer! And the fact that the iPad is in Developer mode, is the most frustrating part. This needs a fix.

The Send to Device in Reality Composer Pro no longer works for me. The progress spinner keeps spinning... Happens with Wifi and Developer Strap (first gen). Any known workarounds / ways to recover?

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.

After updated to Tahoe 26.2 and Xcode 26.2 it seems to have forgotten the Model Provider I had configured. I create a new Model Provider and it works fine, until I exit Xcode. When I open Xcode again my Model Provider is gone. It all worked fine before I did the updates of MacOS and Xcode.

I am encountering a cloud signing permission error when archiving and uploading an iOS app using Xcode with Automatically manage signing enabled. Xcode reports that it cannot access or create cloud-managed distribution certificates, and therefore cannot find any App Store provisioning profiles for either the main app target or an associated Notification Service Extension. The error message returned by Apple’s certificate API indicates that access to cloud-managed distribution certificates is forbidden. Error messages Cloud signing permission error You haven't been given access to cloud-managed distribution certificates. Please contact your team's Account Holder or an Admin to give you access. No profiles were found Xcode couldn't find any iOS App Store provisioning profiles matching the app or extension targets. Environment Xcode: 16.x Signing method: Automatic signing (App Store distribution) Apple Developer Program team with existing distribution certificates Apple ID role: Admin (recently upgraded from a lower role) What I have verified Automatic signing is enabled for all targets The correct team is selected Bundle identifiers are valid and already registered The app and extension exist in App Store Connect Distribution certificates already exist in the team (previously created manually) Observed behavior Xcode attempts to access cloud-managed distribution certificates Apple certificate service responds with a permission-denied error As a result, provisioning profiles cannot be generated automatically Question After being upgraded to an Admin role, is there a known delay or additional requirement before an account can access cloud-managed distribution certificates, especially for teams that previously used manually managed distribution certificates? Is there any recommended action (besides waiting or having the Account Holder perform an initial signing operation) to unblock automatic signing in this situation?

Gitlab runner on M4 Mac Mini 2024, XCode 26.2, supported platforms: iOS, native UIKit swift project. Cocoapods. Trying to run tests via fastlane: run_tests(workspace: 'Project.xcworkspace', destination: "platform=macOS,id=#{deviceId}", scheme: "Release", clean: true) And having an error: $ xcodebuild -showBuildSettings -workspace Project.xcworkspace -scheme Release -destination platform\=macOS,id\=01234567-0123456789B9001C 2>&1 [12:23:53]: Could not read the "SUPPORTED_PLATFORMS" build setting, assuming that the project supports iOS only. [12:23:54]: Found simulator "iPhone 16 Pro (18.5)" The tests runs just fine in xcode on "My Mac (Designed for iPad)" device on the very same machine. Compared the output of xcodebuild -showdestinations in terminal: $ xcodebuild -showdestinations -workspace Project.xcworkspace -scheme Release Available destinations for the "Release" scheme: { platform:macOS, arch:arm64, variant:Designed for [iPad,iPhone], id:01234567-0123456789B9001C, name:My Mac } { platform:iOS, id:dvtdevice-DVTiPhonePlaceholder-iphoneos:placeholder, name:Any iOS Device } { platform:iOS Simulator, id:dvtdevice-DVTiOSDeviceSimulatorPlaceholder-iphonesimulator:placeholder, name:Any iOS Simulator Device } { platform:iOS Simulator, arch:arm64, id:A7E98A79-B29B-4E9A-8103-ECBA55ABC0C6, OS:26.2, name:iPhone 17 Pro } But when I launch this command in gitlab runner, I get this: Available destinations for the "Release" scheme: { platform:iOS, id:dvtdevice-DVTiPhonePlaceholder-iphoneos:placeholder, name:Any iOS Device } { platform:iOS Simulator, id:dvtdevice-DVTiOSDeviceSimulatorPlaceholder-iphonesimulator:placeholder, name:Any iOS Simulator Device } { platform:iOS Simulator, arch:arm64, id:A7E98A79-B29B-4E9A-8103-ECBA55ABC0C6, OS:26.2, name:iPhone 17 Pro } I suspect gitlab runner to ruin some ENV variable, probably. So I googled the most common issues on the internet and tried everything I found: LANG: "en_US.UTF-8" LC_ALL: "en_US.UTF-8" unset CFProcessPath And none is worked. I also compared the printenv output in terminal and gitlab runner, didn't found anything suspicious. Ran out of ideas. How can I troubleshoot this?

The developer downloads page now lists an Xcode 26.1 which was released on 11th Dec (the original Xcode 26.1 was posted on 3rd Nov). Strangely, this new Xcode 26.1 has a CFBundleShortVersionString of 26.1.1, and a DTXcodeBuild of 17B55 % ls -ln total 4413136 -rw-r--r--@ 1 503 20 2259523057 16 Dec 19:01 Xcode_26.1_Apple_silicon.xip % xip --expand Xcode_26.1_Apple_silicon.xip xip: signing certificate was "Software Update" (validation not attempted) xip: expanded items from "/Users/me/Downloads/temp/Xcode_26.1_Apple_silicon.xip" % plutil -p Xcode.app/Contents/Info.plist | grep CFBundleShort "CFBundleShortVersionString" => "26.1.1" % plutil -p Xcode.app/Contents/Info.plist | grep DTXcodeBuild "DTXcodeBuild" => "17B55" 17B55 does correspond to the original Xcode 26.1 final release. The Xcode 26.1.1 release that was previously posted had a DTXcodeBuild of 17B100, though. The pairing of 26.1.1 and 17B55 looks new and probably a packaging error?

It seems Xcode's predictive code completion model is censored. Specifically, when typing the word "torrent," the model stops working completely. It doesn't matter whether the word is written directly in the code or in a comment. It could also be part of another word, such as "qBittorrent." In either case, the model stops working. Reproducing this issue is fairly simple. Create a Swift file and type the word "torrent." The model will stop generating code.

Hi there, ever since I updated to Xcode 26.1, I have been seeing Record UI Button that is showing up on the left hand side which I believe is a new feature. Is there a way to hide this button ? I am using Vim bind with relative line numbers, and now I can't see which line number I am in when writing test cases...

There are multiple iOS simulator runtimes located at /System/Library/AssetsV2/com_apple_MobileAsset_iOSSimulatorRuntime which I don't need. I tried the following approaches to delete them but not working. Xcode > Settings > Components > Delete (It can delete some but not all of them) xcrun simctl runtime list (It doesn't show the old runtimes) sudo rm (Operation not permitted) sudo rm -rf cc1f035290d244fca4f74d9d243fcd02d2876c27.asset Password: rm: cc1f035290d244fca4f74d9d243fcd02d2876c27.asset/AssetData/096-69246-684.dmg: Operation not permitted rm: cc1f035290d244fca4f74d9d243fcd02d2876c27.asset/AssetData: Operation not permitted rm: cc1f035290d244fca4f74d9d243fcd02d2876c27.asset/Info.plist: Operation not permitted rm: cc1f035290d244fca4f74d9d243fcd02d2876c27.asset/version.plist: Operation not permitted rm: cc1f035290d244fca4f74d9d243fcd02d2876c27.asset: Operation not permitted I have two questions: Why "xcrun simctl runtime list" is unable to list some old runtimes? How to delete them?
