Is the new forum better ?
The new forum has been there for a week now. I did wait to get accustomed to it so that my comments are not just due to the change factor. I think it is now possible to make some assessment and I would appreciate others’ opinion to see if it is just me… There are some good points: the editor is much less whimsical the possibility to tag topic is a good thing search has improved (a little). But I find really frustrating points: Editor is better and has a live Preview. What a strange concept in the world of the inventor of WYSIWYG ! Did we return to the 90’s editors with their control characters ? Tags are good, but IMHO it would be useful to have major and minor tags. That would help focus when we list threads by tag by making it possible to select only the major one All posts are now reviewed to avoid spam. Good enough. But why can it take hours (in a case, already 5 hours and still in review) for a very simple answer post (no URL, no bizarre word) to be reviewed. A bit frustrating. And that does not allow for any rapidly going discussion. Many features seem to be inspired from SO, but without some critical capabilities, as the inclusion of images. The concept of upvote or downvote has been introduced as well. Was it really needed ? Won’t it lead to some regrettable side effects that we see in SO where some do not dare propose an answer or even ask a question for fear of a negative vote ? That’s particularly the case for anyone not very fluent in english who may not express properly his/her opinion. I did find that previous developers forum was a more welcoming place than SO. Hope that will not change. There are also capabilities that are missing from previous forum (unless they are so well hidden I could not find them): because of increased spacing, there are now just 15 instead 25 posts per page. And you have to scroll a lot more to get at the end of the shorter list. That do slow down the screening. how can one see the threads he contributed to ? Seems we can only filter the one we authored. It seems now quasi impossible to edit a post, and of course delete it. So at the end, instead of the whaooh effect I was expecting I have just a mixed feeling.

Unable to install test app on Apple Watch
I repeat this older thread, as it does not show on the forum with my added post !https://forums.developer.apple.com/message/298938#298938I answered to KMT answer (I read the referenced thread)---------------Looks like that triggered the name change dialog.Can you just right click on the watch name without that happening? Try it on the phone, on the left so see what I'm looking for.Otherwise, this sounds like what others went thru (routine pairing v o o d o o ) in this SO thread - seen it ? [ filter does not like v o o …]https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30792520/in-xcode-i-see-no-paired-apple-watch-even-though-the-watch-is-paired-and-the-w-------------------------So, my question nowI run in the same problem.I just got the Apple Watch (4, OS 5.1.1) and use XCode 10.1. OSX 10.13.6I can create the app + WatchOS on simulator without problem. But not on device.The watch is paired with iPhone.I connect iPhone with USB=> get the message :The iPhone "iPhone XS" can not be used because it requires iTunes 12.9 or later. Do you want to download the latest version of iTunes now?I ignore the message (as I think iTunes 12.9 requires Mojave, isn't it ?). Could it be the problem ???In XCode, I select the scheme iPhone Xs of XXX + Apple Watch of XXXI run, it compiles OK, but at the end says:"Finished running myApp on Apple Watch of XXX" in the XCode barPlus alert:App installation failedThe host is not paired with the device.I have checked in XCode Devices:- on the left, I see iPhoneXS of XXX- but not the Watch- On the right of Devices window, I see the PAIRED WATCHES:Apple Watch of XXXI also checked that Apple Watch is listed with an UDID in the Devices listThe scheme was in Debug mode.So, I changed to release mode, and get the message in Scheme that paired devices not available for debug.So, Compile again, but then get message :Could not launch 'Autonomie' on iPhone XS XXXThere was an error preparing Apple Watch de XXX for development.Try reattaching the device to which Apple Watch de XXX is paired. The device rejected the pairing attempt.So I unpaired the device.ReattachedTruted the hostRun again, just to get again the messageThe host is not paired with the device.I do not see which and where I should pair.
