Xcode 26 beta 3 - Metal toolchain installed but not working
Under Xcode 26 beta 3 I'm trying to build a project which uses Metal. I've installed the Metal Toolchain 26.0 under Settings -> Components, but when I start a build it fails during the "Prepare build" step with the following error (repeated many times): stat(/var/run/com.apple.security.cryptexd/mnt/com.apple.MobileAsset.MetalToolchain-v17.1.5276.7.Pb9SLL/Metal.xctoolchain/usr/bin/clang): No such file or directory (2) I've confirmed that there is in fact no 'clang' binary in that directory. I've tried using xcode-select to set the Xcode 26 Beta app as the active developer directory, and xcodebuild -version shows: Xcode 26.0 Build version 17A5276g Any ideas on other things to try?

Xcode 15 will not connect to ios17 device via network
I'm unable to debug on iPhone 12 running iOS 17 beta 3 via network. I'm running Xcode 15 beta 6 Device shows in devices and simulators and I can debug when connected with cable. However the "Connect Via Network" option is frayed out, oddly however the checkbox is ticked I'm developing a app using RoomPlan so network connectivity is a must for debugging Anyone else encountered this and know how to get around this problem Other devices running iOS 16 connect via network just fine

CompileAssetCatalogVariant failed with nonzero exit code.
I'm running in a very very very weird error. I have a large asset catalog, consisting of about 2700 assets for 1.19GB of size. I can successfully build and run my project with both release and debug scheme, when a real device or simulator is selected. However, whenever I select Any iOS device (arm64), about 80ish seconds in the build process, the building fails with the following output: CoreUI: Error: unable to add asset to store *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'IBPlatformToolFailureException', reason: 'The tool closed the connection (AssetCatalogSimulatorAgent) What I tried and failed: Cleaning DerivedData and restarting PC Building the same project on three different devices, each with a different version of XCode. All failed. running sudo killall -9 com.apple.CoreSimulator.CoreSimulatorService Scanning for duplicate image files, found none. Scanning for duplicate .imageset folders in different folders, found none. Scanning for images that declared a different format than theirs, eg .webp renamed as .png, and found none. Creating an empty Hello World project, and just adding my asset catalog. Build fails for Any iOS device, succeeds for simulator or physical device. Uninstalling and reinstalling XCode command line tools. Manually compiling via actools. Changed "Embed Assets Pack in Product Bundle" from No to Yes. I don't have any .svg file in my assets. What I tried and failed but gives more insight: Now the only thing that I was able to come up with was deleting folders to narrow down where the problem was. So I found that there is a 700MB folder called T, containing T1, T2, ..., T6. Eventually managed to narrow down even more to T3, T4, T6. I created a distinct .xcassets catalog for each subfolder and tried to compile individually with actools, along with assets.xcassets (the main one). Here's the thing: T3.xcassets + assets.xcassets compiles T4.xcassets + assets.xcassets compiles T6.xcassets + assets.xcassets compiles T3.xcassets + T4.xcassets + assets.xcassets compiles. T3.xcassets + T6.xcassets + assets.xcassets compiles. T4.xcassets + T6.xcassets + assets.xcassets compiles. T3.xcassets + T4.xcassets + T6.xcassets + assets.xcassets crashes with CoreUI: Error: unable to add asset to store. I've been stuck for days now and can't deploy my finished app I worked on for the last three years because of this.

Xcode 16.4 can't choose a lower version iOS simulator to debug
My Xcode version is 16.4, I have added an old version simulator (iPhone 13 with iOS 17.2) to the simulator list, but I can't use it for debugging, and all on display are iPhone 16 with 18.6 (the latest iOS devices). The setting "Minimum Deployments" for my App is 16.6. In addition, when I downloaded an iOS 16.0 version simulator, Xcode automatically added all iPhone 15 models of the simulator, but I still can't use them. In short, I can only use the default iPhone 16 simulators. So, if I want to debug my App using iPhone 13 (iOS 17.2), what should I do? Thank you for your reply. :) Another small issue, my App's destination has been set to support only iPhone, why are those iPad simulators still appearing?

File download not working in Xcode 26.0 RC
Hello Apple Developer Community, I'm experiencing an issue with file download functionality in the iOS Simulator after updating to Xcode 26 RC (Build 17A321). Issue Description: When attempting to download files in the iOS Simulator via Safari, the download prompt appears correctly, but after tapping the 'Download' button, files are not being saved to the Files app. The download appears to do nothing with no error message, no indication of failure, but the file simply doesn't appear in Downloads or anywhere in the Files app. Environment: Xcode Version: 26.0 RC (17A321) iOS Simulator Version: 26.0 RC (23A339) Device Simulated: iPhone Air Steps to Reproduce: Open Safari in the iOS Simulator Navigate to a downloadable file (PDF, ZIP, etc.) Tap to initiate download Download prompt appears as expected Tap the 'Download' button Check the Files app → Downloads folder (empty) Expected Behavior: Files should download normally as they do on physical devices and as they did in previous Xcode versions. Actual Behavior: The download prompt dismisses after tapping 'Download', but no file appears in the Files app. No error message is shown, and there's no indication that the download failed, it simply appears as if nothing happened. Additional Information: Downloads work correctly on physical device (iOS 26 RC 23A340) This functionality worked properly in previous Xcode versions I have created a bug report to Feedback assistant: FB20190927 Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Simulator frozen while Xcode debugger attached
I'm on Xcode 16.3 (16E140), using iPhone 16 Pro Simulator with iOS 18.4, on macOS Sequoia 15.4. Today is the first time using this particular configuration. On Friday I was using Xcode 16.2, simulator on 17.5, macOS 15.3.2. This morning while running the app in the debugger I get times where I pause in using the app, perhaps to look up some information or make some notes, then go back to the simulator and nothing works. It is just frozen. Tap tap tap all day long and nothing responds. In the Xcode console I get this over and over while the simulator doesn't respond. nw_protocol_socket_set_no_wake_from_sleep [C100.1.1:2] setsockopt SO_NOWAKEFROMSLEEP failed [22: Invalid argument] nw_protocol_socket_set_no_wake_from_sleep setsockopt SO_NOWAKEFROMSLEEP failed [22: Invalid argument] I then hit the "Stop" button in Xcode debugger and get this in console <0x10843a0b0> Gesture: System gesture gate timed out. XPC connection interrupted Message from debugger: Xcode has killed the LLDB RPC server to allow the debugger to detach from your process. You may need to manually terminate your process. The Simulator springs to life immediately. It even seems to have queued up my most recent inputs and happily accepts them and processes them as normal.

Device Support for IOS 18.5 Missing
I am missing device support for IOS 18.5 in xcode. I tried installing xcode 16.4, xcode 16.4 beta and xcode 26 beta 2 but none of them generated folder for 18.5. Is this happening only for me or everyone. Please provide me 18.5 folder if anyone has it. I would appreciate a lot.
