Whenever I hit play on my app to test it on the Mac the register .app part starts taking more than 15 minutes, this is severely impacting my work. There's no indication on what's wrong and how can I fix this.

I created 2 iOS projects in Xcode: Project 1: 4 targets (main app + 3 app extensions) 4 static libraries the main app's target dependencies include - 3 app extensions and the 4 libs. the main app's binary is linked to all 4 libs similarly, each extension is linked to all 4 libs Project 2: 5 targets (main app + 3 app extensions + 1 framework) 4 static libraries the main app's target dependencies include - 3 app extensions and the framework each extension is dependent only on the framework the framework's target dependencies include all the 4 static libs As per my understanding, the app bundle size for Project 2 should be less than that of Project 1, since we eliminate duplicating the static libs for each target by using a framework instead. However, I have found that the bundle size is more for Project 2 as compared to the bundle size of project 1. I do not understand, why?

My book env: MacBook Air Apple M4 15.6.1 (24G90) I installed JDK hs_err_pid6813.log by sdkman and homebrew, but when I ran java, os crashed: /opt/homebrew/o/openj/libexec/openjdk.jdk/Contents/Home/bin | stable ./javac --verison ABRT | 12:32:20 # # A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment: # # SIGBUS (0xa) at pc=0x000000010211b340, pid=7237, tid=9987 # # JRE version: (21.0.7) (build ) # Java VM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (21.0.7, mixed mode, sharing, tiered, compressed oops, compressed class ptrs, g1 gc, bsd-aarch64) # Problematic frame: # V [libjvm.dylib+0x35f340] CodeHeap::allocate(unsigned long)+0x15c # # No core dump will be written.

I'm trying to sign-in with a Sandbox account with my iOS simulator. Using Xcode 26 beta 7. After I sign in, the button goes inactive for a few seconds but then nothing happens. It does not actually sign me in.

My version is iOS 18.6.2 (22G100), watchOS 10.6.1 (21U580), macOS 15.3.1 (24D70), Xcode Version 16.4 (16F6). My iPhone can connect to Xcode and complete app installation testing. I have connected the iPhone to Xcode via USB, and both the iPhone and Apple Watch have been set to trust this device. The iPhone has Developer Mode enabled, but I cannot find Developer Mode in the Privacy & Security settings on the Apple Watch. As shown in the image, the Devices section in Xcode's Developer Documentation displays my iPhone but not the Apple Watch. However, the Open Console for the displayed iPhone shows my Apple Watch—actually two of them, though I only have one Apple Watch (the other might be from a previous backup). The iPhone app installs and tests normally, but the Apple Watch app cannot select a target device and fails to start installation. How can I resolve this issue?

Hello, I have a Cocoa application from which I fork a new process (helper sort of) and it crashes on fork due to some cleanup code probably registered with pthreads_atfork() in Network framework. This is crash from the child process: Application Specific Information: *** multi-threaded process forked *** BUG IN CLIENT OF LIBPLATFORM: os_unfair_lock is corrupt Abort Cause 258 crashed on child side of fork pre-exec Thread 0 Crashed:: Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread 0 libsystem_platform.dylib 0x194551238 _os_unfair_lock_corruption_abort + 88 1 libsystem_platform.dylib 0x19454c788 _os_unfair_lock_lock_slow + 332 2 Network 0x19b1b4af0 nw_path_shared_necp_fd + 124 3 Network 0x19b1b4698 -[NWConcrete_nw_path_evaluator dealloc] + 72 4 Network 0x19af9d970 __nw_dictionary_dispose_block_invoke + 32 5 libxpc.dylib 0x194260210 _xpc_dictionary_apply_apply + 68 6 libxpc.dylib 0x19425c9a0 _xpc_dictionary_apply_node_f + 156 7 libxpc.dylib 0x1942600e8 xpc_dictionary_apply + 136 8 Network 0x19acd5210 -[OS_nw_dictionary dealloc] + 112 9 Network 0x19b1beb08 nw_path_release_globals + 120 10 Network 0x19b3d4fa0 nw_settings_child_has_forked() + 312 11 libsystem_pthread.dylib 0x100c8f7c8 _pthread_atfork_child_handlers + 76 12 libsystem_c.dylib 0x1943d9944 fork + 112 (...) I'm trying to create a child process with boost::process::child which does basically just a fork() followed by execv() and I do it before the - [NSApplication run] is called. Is it know bug or behavior which I've run into? Also what is a correct way to spawn child processes in Cocoa applications? As far as my understanding goes the basically all the available APIs (e.g. posix, NSTask) should be more or less the same thing calling the same syscalls. So forking the process early before main run loop starts and not starting another NSApplication in forked child should be ok ...or not?

Today I opened the camera using the camera button and noticed that when I tried to zoom in the slider button was not responding. Not sure if it’s related to iOS 26 beta which I have installed. Forced restarted the phone and the phone case is not covering the button. Thank you in advance for your help.

I tried using Create ML of Xcode 26.0 beta 7 to generate a model using the "Word Tagging" template, and I received the error: Training progress unavailable - Unexpected error. Using Create ML of XCode 16.4 with the same documentation, I was able to build the model and use it in a test app. I'd like to understand why Create ML of Xcode 26 no longer works.

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!

The window to show 'Simulators and Devices' does not show all relevant information about Simulator Devices. On top of the right window-pane the information about OS Version, name, etc is some kind cut off…strangely blurred > effect not readable/visible. Also the toggle is not clearly visible (but with good guess it is selectable). Appearance mode (light or dark) has no influence. Reduce Transparency or increase contrast also no effect. Got this issue since Xcode 26.0 (24198.5) (Build 17A5295f), and now in latest B7 still got this issue. Running macOS Tahoe 26.0 Beta (25A5349a) Does anybody else experience the same issue? Any workaround or fix known? Already filed Feedback: FB19671411

I was reading through this documentation about instruments command line tool https://help.apple.com/instruments/mac/current/#/devb14ffaa5 and how it can be launched from the command line. However, unlike what the documentation states, there's no such instruments command anywhere on my macos M1 (OS version 15.6). That command gives: $> instruments zsh: command not found: instruments I do have XCode installed which has the Instruments.App (GUI app) but not the command line utility: $> ls Xcode.app/Contents/Applications/ ... Instruments.app Is that linked documentation up-to-date (it does say "latest" in the URL)? Is there some other way to install this command line utility?

We are experiencing troubles in our organization when we want to debug iOS applications on physical iPhones and iPads. Our iPhones (iPhone 16e, iOS 18.5) are not recognized by Xcode 16.4, but in the Finder they show up fine using the USB cable. We are aware, that the communication is different and there is an ad-hoc network that gets created to exchange the device profile. Together with our IT department responsible for our security infrastructure we narrowed it down to the following reason: As we are blocking all IPv6 traffic for local networking, the iPhone cannot communicate with Xcode to make the first connection and load the device profile. As they are not planning on changing this behavior, I am reaching out to you, if there is a way to force this first handshake between Xcode and iOS device to use IPv4? Or is there any other way to enable debugging for these devices? Any ideas would be very helpful.

I am experiencing an issue where XCode reverts .xccurrentversion file in my iOS app to the first version whenever xcodebuild is run or whenever XCode is started. This means I can build the app and run tests in XCode if I discard the reversion .xccurrentversion on XCode start. However, testing on CI is impossible because the version the tests rely on are reverted whenever xcodebuild is run. The commands I run to reproduce the issue ❯ git status Changes not staged for commit: (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed) (use "git restore <file>..." to discard changes in working directory) modified: Path/.xccurrentversion no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a") ❯ git checkout "Path/.xccurrentversion" Updated 1 path from the index ❯ git status nothing to commit, working tree clean ❯ xcodebuild \ -scheme Scheme \ -configuration Configuration \ -sdk iphonesimulator \ -destination 'platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPhone 16 Pro,OS=latest' \ -skipPackagePluginValidation \ -skipMacroValidation \ test > /dev/null # test fails because model version is reverted ❯ git status HEAD detached at pull/249/merge Changes not staged for commit: (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed) (use "git restore <file>..." to discard changes in working directory) modified: Path/.xccurrentversion no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a") I have experienced such issue in 16.3 (16E140) and 16.2 (16C5032a). Similar issues/solutions I have found online are the following. But they are either not relevant or do not work in my case. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17631587/xcode-modifies-current-coredata-model-version-at-every-launch https://github.com/CocoaPods/Xcodeproj/issues/81 Is anyone aware of any solution? Is there a recommended way I can run diagnostics on XCode and file a feedback?

We are developing a cross platform c++ application. We also use some objective-c (no swift) and specific Apple frameworks like AVFoundation, CoreML in the MacOs version of our software. We use Apple Clang as compiler when building for MacOs. As our code is primarily c++ we would like to use the latest and greatest c++ 20 features. So we are looking into using vanilla clang instead, the builds with vanilla clang seem to work fine, however our concern is that we might have overlooked possible issues that could arise. So our question is whether there are specific things we need to address when switching compilers, are there things that we need to be aware of? In the end we just want to know if switching compilers won't cause problems we can't oversee. So we would like to know if others took the same steps and what your thoughts/experiences are regarding this?

Hi! I must be missing something. I am creating a MacOS dynamic library using Xcode. I have created the library as follows: File->New Project then choose macOS 'Library' in Frameworks and Libraries. I give the Product Name "TestLib". Framework: STL (C++ Library) Type: Dynamic This creates a default library project, with one exported class 'TestLib'. There's a method "HelloWorld". And this suffices for my issue. To be able to test my dynamic library, I want to use an XCtest target. So in the project settings, I select '+', and add a 'Unit Testing Bundle': Product name: TestLibTests Language: Swift Testing System: XCTest Project: TestLib Target to be tested: TestLib I press finish, and my test target is created. Now, I think I need to have a module map. So I Add New File From Template', and choose 'Module Map'. A 'module.modulemap' is created. In the module map file, I name the module 'TestLib', and header 'TestLib.h'. So far, everything makes sense, and no errors. But here it comes... When I want to make a testcase, I need to import the module. I first built the dylib library, to make sure it's built without errors and exists. Then I switch to the TestLibTests target and want to write my first test. Simply creating an object from the TestLib class. For that, I have to import the module, so I write 'import TestLib' after the 'import XCTest' at the top. And here is where I'm stuck. No matter what I do, Xcode just gives me the error 'No such module TestLib'. This should just work, right? I should be able to unit test my library. I have spent 2 days reading the internet and trying many suggestions, but I just can't get it to work. I am currently working with Xcode 26 beta. But I tried with Xcode 16.4 and that has the same issue. What am I missing?

If you need help investigating a crash, please include a crash report in your post. To smooth things along, follow these guidelines: For information on how to get a crash report, see Acquiring crash reports and diagnostic logs. Include the whole crash report as a text attachment (click the paperclip icon and then choose Add File). This avoids clogging up the timeline while also preserving the wealth of information in the crash report. If you’re not able to post your crash report as an attachment, see Can’t Post Crash Report as Attachment below. If you want to highlight a section of the report, include it in the main body of your post. Put the snippet in a code block so that it renders nicely. To create a code block, add a delimiter line containing triple backquotes before and after the block, or just click the Code Block button. If possible, post an Apple crash report. Third-party crash reporters are often missing critical information and have general reliability problems (for an explanation as to why, see Implementing Your Own Crash Reporter). Symbolicate your crash report before posting it. For information on how to do this, see Adding identifiable symbol names to a crash report. If you need to redact the crash report, do so consistently. Imagine you’re building the WaffleVarnish app whose bundle ID is com.example.wafflevarnish but you want to keep your new waffle varnishing technology secret. Replace WaffleVarnish with WwwwwwVvvvvvv and com.example.wafflevarnish with com.eeeeeee.wwwwwwvvvvvvv. This keeps the text in the crash report aligned while making it possible to distinguish the human-readible name of the app (WaffleVarnish) from the bundle ID (com.example.wafflevarnish). Finally, for information on how to use a crash report to debug your own problems, see Diagnosing issues using crash reports and device logs. Can’t Post Crash Report as Attachment Crash reports have two common extensions: .crash and .ips. If you have an .ips file, please post that [1]. DevForums lets you attach a .crash file but not an .ips file (r. 117468172). To work around this, change the extension to .txt. If DevForums complains that your crash report “contains sensitive language”, leave it out of your initial post and attach it to a reply. That often avoids this roadblock. If you still can’t post your crash report, upload it to a file sharing service and include the URL in your post. Post the URL in the clear, per tip 14 in Quinn’s Top Ten DevForums Tips. Getting a Crash Report from the Xcode Organiser The Xcode organiser shows crash reports from customers. If you’re investigating such a crash and want to post a crash report: Navigate to the crash in the Xcode organiser. Note If you can’t see the right crash, check the filter popups at the top. In the list of crashes, secondary click on your crash and choose Show in Finder. That reveals the Xcode crashpoint document (.xccrashpoint) in the Finder. Secondary click on that and choose Show Package Contents. In the resulting Finder window, find a crash report (.crash) that accurately represents the crash you’re investigating and attach that to your forums post. Share and Enjoy — Quinn “The Eskimo!” @ Developer Technical Support @ Apple let myEmail = "eskimo" + "1" + "@" + "apple.com" [1] Because it’s easy to go from an .ips file to a .crash file. I usually do this by choosing File > Quick Look in the Finder. For more info about these file formats, see this post. Revision History: 2025-08-29 Added the Getting a Crash Report from the Xcode Organiser section. 2024-11-21 Added a recommendation to post the .ips format if possible. 2024-05-21 Added some advice regarding the “contains sensitive language” message. 2023-10-25 Added the Can’t Post Crash Report as Attachment section.
