Hi everyone,
I’m experiencing a persistent issue when trying to download the iOS Simulator Runtime 26.1 on Xcode (version 26.1). The download always fails with the following error
Download failed due to a bad URL. (Catalog download for com.apple.MobileAsset.iOSSimulatorRuntime)
Domain: com.apple.MobileAssetError.Download
Code: 49
I’m located in Brazil, so I initially thought it might be region-related, but I’ve already tried several attempts to fix it, including:
Using VPNs for the US and Europe
Installing the Xcode 26.2 beta
Downgrading Xcode to earlier versions
Reinstalling the same version of Xcode
Restarting Xcode and my Mac
Switching networks
Clearing simulator support/device files
Unfortunately, nothing has resolved the issue.
Is anyone else facing this problem?
Does anyone know a workaround or a manual way to download/install the iOS 26.1 simulator runtime?
Thanks in advance!
