FYI: Xcode and Disk Space
I discovered a disk space issue with Xcode on my 1TB hard disk. Xcode doesn’t delete old or unused Simulators, causing them to mix and consume valuable space. Deleting them from the Window > Devices & Simulators menu didn’t work, so I used Disk Utility to find and delete them. However, they persisted. To regain disk space, I completely removed Xcode and the Developer Folder. After reinstalling Xcode, I regained about 80% of my disk space. Despite unmounting the Simulators, they remained. For those unable or unwilling to do this, the Mac App Store offers DevCleaner, a utility that removes old Xcode Cache and Simulators. Thanks. I hope I've helped someone else. Dan Uff

Unable to use FoundationModels in older app?
Hi, I'm trying to add FoundationModels to an older project but always get the following error: "Unable to resolve 'dependency' 'FoundationModels' import FoundationModels" The error comes and goes while its compiling and then doesn't run the app. I have my target set to 26.0 (and can't go any higher) and am using Xcode 26 (17E192). Is anyone else having this issue? Thanks, Dan Uff

Xcode 26 Beta Rebooting Problems
Hi, I've been running Xcode 26 beta ever since Beta 1 and haven't had rebooting problems. Now with Xcode beta (Version 26.0 beta 4 (17A5285i)) I'll be working on a project when the system (Mac mini 2025) suddenly reboots itself. This has been going on since beta 3. I am also running MacOS 26.0 Beta (25A5316i). I have filed a bug report. Is anyone else having this problem? Thanks, Dan Uff

Apple WeatherKit on macOS
Hi all, I have WeatherKit working on iOS and watchOS, but am having problems getting it to work on macOS. I have all entitlements enabled and everything seems to checkout, but I get the following error: "WARNING: error = 3→(76) INVALID_PERSONA; It is undefined behavior to look up a container with a persona other than personal or data separated. Please adopt a persona first. Assuming personal. given persona = (<MCMUserIdentity: 0xb3d0288c0; posixUser = (501|20|danuff|/Users/danuff), identifier = 501, personaType = unspecific, personaUniqueString = E90578C5-AAE4-44DD-9E41-CC3F97B34F0C, kernelPersonaID = 1001>) Message from debugger: killed Any ideas?

Xcode 16.3 Problems
Hi, This problem had gone away with the previous version, but its back with 16.3. When I first go into Xcode, it normally shows me a list of previous projects. This seems to work some of the time, and not others. When it doesn't, I Quit Xcode, go back in, then the list appears again. I also noticed each time I quit Xcode, I get the "beach ball icon" for 5-7 seconds and then it exits most of the time. When it doesn't, I have to issue a killall Xcode in the Terminal. I have a brand new Mac mini M4, 24GB RAM, 2 TB SSDD. Is anyone else having these issues? Thank you, Dan Uff

Distribution and Apple TV Question
Hi, This maybe somewhat confusing, but please bear with me. I currently have an app in the App Store that supports iOS and tvOS. But the tvOS version was a separate app during the development process. I'd like to combine the iOS and tvOS app into one project so its easier to handle and keep track of internally. Can I upload the new Apple TV version to the same place where the current one is, or would I have to delete the current Apple TV version before uploading the newly combined version? I hope I made that clear enough :-) Thank you, Dan Uff
