Instruments - No PMI Record Found
Instruments CPU Profiler failed to start the profilable app (get-task-allow is set to true) with error "No PMI Record Found". Device is iPhone 13 Pro currently running iOS 17.0.3. Tried to profile in instruments shipped with Xcode 14.3.1, Xcode 15.0.1 and Xcode 15.1 Beta, same issue across. If it helps, I was able to successfully profile on iPhone X running iOS f16.7 using Xcode 14.2 instruments.

Error trying to publish .Net Maui app from VS2022
I just finished my first mobile app using .Net Maui. I have created all of the required certificatee, identifier, and profile in my Apple developer account and downloaded them to my MacAir. On my Windows machine I connect to my MacAir in VS2022 and build my release. Then I go to publish and I get this error: Cannot create an IOS archive 'AgentManagerMobile'. Process cannot be executed on XMA server. MessagingRemoteException: An error occurred on client Build1647067 while executing a reply for topic xvs/build/16.4.7067/execute-task/{AppName}/399e8ad002fWriteAppManifest ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null. Parameter name: path2 What is parameter path2? Can anyone help with solving this? Thanks, Phill

Xcode 15 - can't select (installed) iOS 16.4 runtime destination
Problem: iOS 16.4 runtime targets are not available for selection, however the 16.4 simulator shows as installed under "Manage run destinations" Config: Xcode 15.0, Sonoma 14.0, M1 Mac-Mini Background: I write and maintain apps for my business unit. A co-worker dropped a phone on my desk and said 'The app doesn't work anymore, can you fix it'. Well, it turns out the phone is running iOS 16.6. The OS had been upgraded. This sent me down the path of upgrading Xcode on a development Mac, which also forced a MacOs upgrade on me. The end result is I now have XCode 15 on Sonoma, but have an iOS 16.6 device that I'm trying to target. Since I don't have any iOS 17 devices I didn't install the 17.0 runtime. To install the "16.6 runtime" I went to: "Xcode - Settings - Platforms" and hit the + in the lower left and under "Previously released simulators" I selected iOS. I selected iOS 16.4 as it was the closest I could see to 16.6 so I'm assuming it still works with 16.6. It took a few attempts to download correctly, but it now shows up in my platforms as "iOS 16.4 Simulator 6.18 GB on disk". If I select "Product - Destination - Manage Run Destinations" I can see simulators for 10 different iOS devices (from iPad 10th gen to iPhone SE) all running iOS 16.4. Great! I must be ready to develop and test for 16.6. Right? Nope. In the dropdown beside my App name the only option that is shown to me is "iOS 17" and the "Get" button beside it. I was expecting to my iOS 16.4 simulators as available target destinations, but there's nothing other than "iOS 17 - Get". This is an old App that I'm maintaining so its deployment target is not new. Selecting a different iOS Deployment target doesn't have an effect. I tried going into Manage Run Destinations and selected my iPhone 14 simulator on iOS 16.4 as "show run destination always". - no change Older iOS version do not show as destinations. Anyone else encounter this? Did you figure it out? Help? Thx

DriverKit XCode compilation errors
I'm working on dext project (c++), Base SDK and Supported Platforms are set to DriverKit. #include causes errors: error "The iostreams library is not supported since libc++ has been configured without support for localization." error "<locale.h> is not supported since libc++ has been configured without support for localization." Also it's not possible to define custom log object: undeclared identifier 'os_log_create'. <os/log.h> included and os_log function is compiled correct. macOS as additional SDK did not help. Thanks a lot for any hint.

Apple is behind with AI
It would be nice for Apple to integrate chatgpt, Open AI, and create their own artificial intelligence. Siri is not equipped to answer questions that AI can. With increasing AI prevalence and usability, Apple is behind. Message to Apple: PLEASE UTILIZE AI TO MAKE APPLE THE BEST PLATFORM.

Xcode 15 performance tests ignore baseline
I'm trying to write performance tests with Xcode 15, but it's not working: even though setting a baseline seems to work (baseline data files are created), Xcode seems to ignore that baseline altogether whenever the test is run. As a result, performance tests never fail, no matter how bad performance gets. The source editor persistently displays a “No baseline average for Time” message. Has anyone else encountered this? Figured out how to sidestep the issue? Of note, the issue is easily reproduced: create a new (macOS in my case) app project with tests, add a dummy performance test; run the test once and save its baseline, and despite this subsequent tests will always succeed, even if you significantly slow the dummy test down. (I've filed this as FB13330139)

What is "bridgeOS Device Support" for?
In my Mac's Settings -> General -> Storage -> Developer -> (i) I have a series of entries for "bridgeOS", all 2.49 GB except one that is "zero". Do I need these? Can I remove them? I am only doing "normal" iPhone / iPad development. (There was some previous mention of this here: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/711279 with no feedback.)

Development Team not showing in Xcode under Team in Signing
I was invited to a new development team yesterday, and I can not choose that team under the Team drop down of Signing & Capabilities in Xcode. Also, when I first login to Apple Developer, this team is not in the main drop down (the teams dropdown). But if I go into "Apps", then I can see the team in the teams dropdown in the top right of the screen and switch to it. Anyone know what's going on?

How can I use a CreateML model in Swift Playgrounds
I am trying to implement a ML model with Core ML in a playground for a Student Challenge project, but I can not get it to work. I have already tried everything I found online but nothing seems to work (the tutorials where posted long time ago). Anyone knows how to do this with Xcode 15 and the most recent updates?

Xcode debugger doesn't pause on breakpoints (simulator SDK < iOS 17)
Hello. I'm seeing an inconsistent behavior where breakpoints I set in my (Swift) iOS app behave normally when I'm debugging on a device or on a simulator running iOS 17.x, but when I try using simulators of iOS 16 or 15 the breakpoints get ignored completely. I also observe that the breakpoints remain solid blue and do NOT adopt the dotted blue outline, as experienced by other users. I've seen a few posts on here and on SO about the general issue of ignored breakpoints (with no conclusive answer AFAIK), but I haven't seen any where the behavior varies with the SDK being used. The behavior is repeatable and predictable (within the same app at least). I am not adding the breakpoints after building/running, and I'm sure the logic reaches the lines with the breakpoints (and again, whenever I switch to an iOS 17 simulator, execution does pause as expected with the exact same breakpoints). Things I've tried and looked into: Clean up project build folder Delete and re-install simulators (iOS 16.4 and 15.5) Deleted the entire derived data directory, as well as the CoreSimulator one. Confirm the build configuration is Debug, and the "Debug executable" option is checked. inspect various build flags mentioned in other posts: {Swift compiler - Code generation - Optimization level - Debug: -0none; Debug information format: DWARF (I also tried DWARF with dSYM with no impact)}. Most of my settings are on the plain vanilla/out of the box side, with only a couple of SPM dependencies, and I've been maintaining the same app for about 5 years and don't think I've come across this behavior before. Currently using Xcode 15.1. Deployment target is 14.0. Thank you.

xcode15.1/15.2 debug does not show the value but only the address of its pointer
xcode15.1 debug does not show the value on the real machine but only the address of the pointer, but on the emulator it shows the normal value. But in the emulator it shows the normal value. xcode15.2 debug doesn't show the value but only the address of the pointer in both the real machine and the emulator. In Xcode14, the value is displayed normally in both the real machine and the emulator. What do I need to do to get it back to the way it was in Xcode14?

UI Tests on Xcode Cloud fail due to Simulator randomly showing Apple logo
Hello everyone! When I run UI Tests on Xcode Cloud, I often encounter unexpected failures. Checking the screen recording, I found that the iOS Simulator could go into a black screen with a white Apple logo and a progress bar for a period after the test starts. This behavior of the Simulator causes my app's UI Tests to fail randomly, which greatly affects the practical use of UI Tests. I suspect this phenomenon is unrelated to my app and test cases, so I'm asking if anyone else has encountered a similar issue. 🤔

tvOS icon missing layers
I have an AppleTV app which I released in 2016. I've updated it and released a new version every year without much hassle. This year, with tvOS 17.2, the layered app icon isn't working right. This is a two-layer image made with PNGs. When it's selected, it looks right and the layers move correctly: But when it's not selected, the background layer disappears: Screenshots are from the simulator but it also happens on the device. It's inconsistent; sometimes it's the front layer that disappears. Occasionally both layers work, but I can't tell why. I've spent a day trying everything. Very frustrated. The icon previews correctly in Xcode and in Parallax Viewer. The image sizes are correct: 400 x 240 for Small, 800 x 480 for Small@2x, 1280 x 768 for Large. The back layer is a non-transparent PNG. I tried adding a Large@2x set. Didn't help. Originally I had a three-layer image with no middle layer PNG. I deleted the empty middle layer, but that didn't help. All the PNG files are from GnuIMP. Same color space, even. I was using the filenames tvicon-back-s.png and tvicon-back-s@2x.png. I tried taking out the @ sign in case that was confusing Xcode. (It never has before, but I am flailing here.) Anybody have any clues? If it's an Apple bug and there's nothing I can do, I'm going to just push the release button and hope it fixes itself someday.

App will not install on Apple Watch 8
Xcode 15.2 will not assign a UDID Identifier to my watch Apple 8 (ver. 10.2), therefore I do not see that Watch on my Dev account list of devises. When I build my App it will work fine on my iPhone 14 and it will show on the Available Watch App list on the phone and even (although shaded) on the Watch's Apps list itself, but it will not install and when I try to install I get this message: "This App could not be installed at this time". I know of many others that have the same problem. We have tried many ways to solve this problem, but without any success. It seems like Xcode 15 does not see the Watch. In fact when I click on the "Window-Devises" of Xcode I can see the iPhone and its identifier UDID, but it doesn't show the Watch although it is properly paired. Also, please note that the App will Install and Works perfectly fine in my old Watch 4 ( 10.2). However this particular Watch is present on the list of my DEV Account Devises as it was entered there by an earlier version of Xcode some two years ago. So it would appear that two versions of Xcode 15.x are a culprit in creating this problem. Any feedback or a solution to this problem would be greatly appreciated by many. Thank you

Hello, I have created a .NET MAUI application in Windows Visual Studio 2022. Also I have a MAC fully configured with latest Visual Studio for MAC and Xcode Installed. When pairing the MAC for windows machine I am able to run the simulators for various IPhone devices(as they are attached to MAC) but when I try to run for the MacCatalyst from my Windows machine it doesnt work. Is it possible to create a build for the MAUI application for MacCatalyst from my windows machine.The build should be created in my Windows folder directory.?
