I created a package using "File > New > Package" and now I want to add a new Asset Catalog to this package. With my package selected in the project navigator I select "File > New > File" but it creates a Swift file instead of showing the Template Selection dialog Ref: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/managing-assets-with-asset-catalogs#Create-a-new-asset-catalog

Everytime when iOS simulator is launched I het a lot of repeated "*** quit unexpectedly" alerts. Where "***" is a mix of "managedappdistributiond","healthappd", and "findmylocated" Even after the simulator is launched I still het random "*** quit unexpectedly" alerts. Very annoying because the alerts deactivates the active window This is on an MacBook Pro M3 Max,, Xcode 15.2, Sonoma 14.2.1, it also happens with Xcode 15.1 A co developer (MacBook Pro M1 Max,Xcode 15.2, Sonoma 14.2.1) does not have the issue Any idea how I can prevent this from happening? Update Every mentioned service crash happens in libswiftCore.dylib at 0x1929f3938 assertionFailure(:_:file:line:flags:) + 248

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.

Context I'm trying to profile a binary (a simple C++ program compiled into dummy.o) and collect CPU Counters data. I have a configuration that works fine from the Instruments Counters GUI (see Screenshots below). I've exported this configuration to a template file named prof1.tracetemplate. Problem When I try to run a recording with that same template from the command line with xctrace (I also tried with sudo): $ xctrace record --template prof1.tracetemplate --launch dummy.o I get the following errors: Starting recording with the prof1 template. Launching process: dummy.o. Ctrl-C to stop the recording Run issues were detected (trace is still ready to be viewed): [Error] Unexpected failure: Couriers have returned unexpectedly. [Error] Failed to start the recording: Failed to force all hardware CPU counters: 13. [Error] Failed to pause recording session: Cannot pause session session unless it's running. Current state: kSessionError [Error] Unexpected failure: Data source agent failed to arm. Recording failed with errors. Saving output file...

I currently own an Apple Watch SE2 device. However, when I try to debug from the watch to the actual device, the connection loss issue occurs all too often. Once the connection is lost, it continues to try to connect in the Disconnected list on the Xcode "Devices and Simulators" screen and is in a loading state. Very often, even when the connection is established and you are trying to start debugging, it drops out. Xcode cannot debug properly on the actual device. I later found out that the Apple Watch SE2 does not support 5.0 Hz Wi-Fi, only 2.5 Hz. I think that might be the cause. Is this phenomenon less likely to occur if you debug on an actual device such as a regular Apple Watch 7/8/9 or Ultra model? In fact, if debugging is difficult with the Apple Watch SE model, I am wondering whether I should purchase an additional Apple Watch. Or is there another way to improve this issue? It would be nice if the Apple Watch could be debugged by connecting it to a Mac with an actual cable like the iPhone. I am wondering if there is a way to disable and enable network debugging in Xcode. In the past, debugging the watch using only Bluetooth with the iPhone in Xcode seemed to be more stable. Except for the Watch, the iPad doesn't have any major issues with Wi-Fi debugging on the iPhone.

Hello, I'm trying to use devicectl to observe Darwin Notifications on my iPhone. Instructions: OVERVIEW: Observe a Darwin notification on a device. Note that this command will wait for 300 seconds by default before exiting. You can override this by providing a different --timeout value. USAGE: devicectl device notification observe --device <uuid|ecid|udid|name> --name <name> ... [--verbose] [--quiet] [--timeout <seconds>] [--json-output <path>] [--log-output <path>] DEVICE OPTIONS: -d, --device <uuid|ecid|udid|name> The identifier, ECID, UDID, or name of the device. COMMAND OPTIONS: --name <name> The name of the Darwin notification. This can be passed multiple times to observe multiple Darwin notifications. OUTPUT OPTIONS: -v, --verbose If given, provide more logging output than normal. -q, --quiet If given, output will include only errors. -t, --timeout <seconds> The overall command timeout in seconds. If this limit is exceeded the command is abandoned as a failure. -j, --json-output <path> An optional path to write a JSON file with command results. Note: JSON output to a user-provided file on disk is the ONLY supported interface for scripts/programs to consume command output. -l, --log-output <path> An optional path to write all logging otherwise passed to stdout/stderr. OPTIONS: --version Show the version. -h, --help Show help information. Executed command: xcrun devicectl device notification observe --device XXX --name com.example.Notification Result: Darwin notification observation started. 300.0 seconds remaining: On iOS, I'm posting a Darwin notification using: CFNotificationCenterPostNotification(center, CFNotificationName("com.example.Notification" as CFString), nil, nil, true) My CFNotificationCenterAddObserver on iOS does receive this notification. But the devicectl does not. Also no results when I remove the observer on iOS. How can I send a notification in such a way that it is picked up by the devicectl observer?

I want to use a ci_script to change the CI_BUILD_NUMBER to a new value. But in XCODE CLOUD there seems to be no programmatic way to change it?

It looks like the other thread got locked. I would still like to be able to uncheck the box for "Connect via network" so I can develop with my iOS 17+ devices normally with Xcode 15. Or a method to use Xcode 14 with iOS 17+ without CoreDevice or whatever the problematic API is.

Lately, I keep getting this warning when closing Xcode asking if I want to save the changes. Strangely enough, I have never received this before. I looked to see if I could disable and enable autosave. Unfortunately I have not found anything. Does anyone have any tips?

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcodekit/creating_a_source_editor_extension I created new MacOS project and added a Xcode Source Editor Extension target to the project. I run the extension in debug mode with extension target, but the extension is not show up in Editor menu debug mode Xcode. Xcode version is 15.3(released) MacOS version is 14.4.1 Sonoma

We are received the following error while uploading the application into TestFlight. **ITMS-90714: Invalid binary - The app contains one or more corrupted binaries. Please rebuild the app and resubmit. ** After sometimes we submit the same application without changing the configurations application submitted successfully into the App Store. We are using the Xcode 15.3 version.

Hello everyone, I am encountering a persistent issue with Xcode where I’m unable to install my app on a testing device due to the following error message: Failed to verify code signature of /var/installd/Library/Caches/com.apple.mobile.installd.staging/temp.SznYNY/extracted/iForC.app : 0xe8008018 (The identity used to sign the executable is no longer valid.) Here’s what I have tried so far to resolve this issue: 1. Ensured that all my certificates and provisioning profiles are current and valid. 2. Removed all related certificates from my Keychain and reinstalled new ones. 3. Cleaned and rebuilt the project multiple times. 4. Unpaired the device and paired it again. 5. Reinstalled the latest version of Xcode. 6. Performed a complete restore of my Mac. Despite these troubleshooting steps, I am still facing the same issue. I would greatly appreciate any insights or experiences related to this error from anyone who has overcome similar challenges. Thank you in advance for your help!

Using Xcode to build and deploy the app to my watch, this is what I get: “Waiting to reconnect to Apple Watch. Previous preparation error: Transport error." And then “Connecting to Apple Watch. Xcode will continue when the operation completes.” And these messages continue to switch between each other. Sometimes the watch to connect and the application starts, but more often a scenario occurs with endless reconnection. I'm using: MacOS 14.4.1 (MacBook Pro 2019; 1.4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i5), Xcode 15.3, Watch OS 10.2 (Apple Watch SE 1), iOS 17.1.1 (iPhone 15 Pro). Methods I tried: Connecting Macbook, iPhone and Watch to the same WIfi network; Disabling Watch (and IPhone) from the "Devices and Simulators" menu and setting up Watch (and IPhone) from the beginning. Any help?

I have enabled Code Review with the button and then String Catalog turned up to code view anyways i can't get it back to original view. Disable Code Review button doesn't do anything. Any idea?

When I compile my Xcode project using the xcodebuild command, I observe long incremental build durations. For example, compiling a new, empty project in Xcode only takes around one second. The same project takes 7 seconds to compile using the xcodebuild command. I've noticed that xcodebuild hangs at the "GatherProvisioningInputs" phase. Steps to Reproduce: Create a new Xcode project (iOS app template) Build the project in Xcode with timing summary enabled Build the same project from the command line with the following command: time xcodebuild -destination 'platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPhone 15 Pro,OS=latest' I would appreciate any insights or suggestions on how to improve the build times when using the xcodebuild command. Thank you in advance for your help!

I updated my project (a Swift-based Screen Saver) from Xcode 14 to 15, and while the project works fine, I'm seeing a bunch of warnings during the link phase like this: ld: warning: reexported library with install name '/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/SpeechSynthesis.framework/Versions/A/SpeechSynthesis' found at '/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/SpeechSynthesis.framework/Versions/A/SpeechSynthesis.tbd' couldn't be matched with any parent library and will be linked directly Am I doing something wrong? Can I safely suppress these warnings?

Hi, I'm testing out Xcode 16 beta and I have a couple of questions: Is Swift Assist only available on Sequoia? I see that predictive code completion is per https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2024/06/apple-empowers-developers-and-fuels-innovation-with-new-tools-and-resources/, but I tried the beta on Sonoma and I'm not seeing it Regarding Swift Assist - I understand that code is only used to process requests and never stored on servers, and Apple will not use it to train machine learning models. However, my company's security team may still decide that using Swift Assist is too much of a risk. How can we disable it across multiple developer machines? Thank you!

Since a few days, I'm trying to fetch our private SPM repo hosted on Azure via Xcode but without success. Actually they now accept only ssh key RSA-SHA2-256 or RSA-SHA2-512. So I created a new SSH key, but it seems the problem persists when I try to fetch spm repo or git clone via xcode: "You’re using ssh-rsa that is about to be deprecated and your request has been blocked intentionally. Any SSH session using SSH-RSA is subject to brown out (failure during random time periods). Please use rsa-sha2-256 or rsa-sha2-512 instead. For more details see aka.ms/ado-ssh-rsa-deprecation. remote: ERROR_SSH_UNSUPPORTED_CIPHER (7) (-20)" Even so I'm choosing the good new ssh key, it seems Xcode is sending wrong information about the new generated ssh key. Anyone is experiencing the same here?

In the XCode 16 beta, it isn't possible to create a new StoreKit configuration file because the templates list doesn't contain that option. Adding the storekit extension to a file crashes XCode or doesn't have an effect at all. But, loading an existing file still works.
