Installing a development build on a physical iPhone fails with: 0xE8008018 - The identity used to sign the executable is no longer valid. On the same Mac, same iPhone, same codebase and same Xcode, switching to a free personal Apple ID team installs and runs with no error. Only builds signed with our paid organisation team fail. Nothing else changes between the two runs. We have already regenerated certificates and provisioning profiles, deleted the profiles folder, cleared DerivedData, removed old identities from the keychain, trusted the profile on device, and tried both automatic and manual signing. None of it changes the result. We have also gone through the existing threads on this error and none of the suggested fixes apply. The build validates locally but the device rejects the identity. Since the signing team is the only variable between success and failure, what should we be looking at? A support case is open with Developer Support but we have not had a technical response yet.

I'm unable to use the Claude Agent in Xcode 26 (stable release) running on macOS 27 beta 5. Steps to reproduce: Open Xcode 26 Settings > Intelligence Select Claude Agent Expected: The Account section loads and allows me to sign in / manage my Claude account. Actual: The Account row shows a loading spinner indefinitely and never resolves, so I can't sign in or use the Claude Agent at all. Environment: Xcode 26 (stable), macOS 27 beta 5. Is this a known incompatibility with macOS 27 beta 5? Is there a workaround (e.g. clearing a cache or re-adding the account) to get the Claude Agent account section to load?

Environment: MacBook Air M4 macOS 27 Golden Gate Beta Xcode 27 Beta iPhone running iOS 27 Beta Apple Watch Series 10 paired to the iPhone Steps to Reproduce: Install macOS 27 Beta and Xcode 27 Beta. Pair an Apple Watch with an iPhone running iOS 27 Beta. Enable Developer Mode on the iPhone. Connect the iPhone to the Mac and launch Xcode. Open Window → Devices and Simulators. Attempt to locate the paired Apple Watch or enable Developer Mode on the watch. Expected Result: The paired Apple Watch appears in Xcode for development purposes. A Developer Mode option is available on the Apple Watch. Xcode is able to recognize and communicate with the watch through the paired iPhone. Actual Result: The Apple Watch does not appear in Xcode. No Developer Mode option is visible on the watch. The iPhone is successfully paired and running iOS 27 Beta, but the watch remains unavailable for development workflows. Additional Notes: The iPhone and Apple Watch are already paired and functioning normally. Developer Mode is enabled on the iPhone. Restarting devices and reconnecting the iPhone did not resolve the issue. Unsure whether this is a limitation of the current beta builds or a regression in Xcode/watchOS development tooling.

Hello! I was recently trying out XCTHitchMetric with my MTKView and it doesn't seem to record anything. But if I use the Animation Hitches instrument then I do see the hitches get recorded when a frame is presented on screen later than expected. I'm curious if there is a reason for this or maybe I am missing something?

I tried to upload my build into testflight with XCode -> Product -> Archive -> Distribute App but this error keeps showing up: "No Team Found in Archive, Use the Signing & Capabilities editor to assign a team to the targets and build a new archive." However, my Apple ID IS connected and the bundle ID is the same as in my App Store Connect. What can I do? I tried deleting all archives, restarting Xcode & my Mac, still nothing happend. I can't get it to upload...

I have an orphaned asset folder taking up 9.13GB located at: /System/Library/AssetsV2/com_apple_MobileAsset_iOSSimulatorRuntime/c0d3fd05106683ba0b3680d4d1afec65f098d700.asset It contains SimulatorRuntimeAsset version 18.5 (Build 22F77). Active Version: My current Xcode setup is using version 26.2 (Build 23C54). I checked the plist files in the directory and found what seems to be the cause of the issue: The "Never Collected" Flag: The Info.plist inside the orphaned asset folder explicitly sets the garbage collection behavior to "NeverCollected": <key>__AssetDefaultGarbageCollectionBehavior</key> <string>NeverCollected</string> The Catalog Mismatch: The master catalog file (com_apple_MobileAsset_iOSSimulatorRuntime.xml) in the parent directory only lists the new version (26.2). Because the old version (18.5) is missing from this XML, Xcode and mobileassetd seem to have lost track of it entirely. What I Have Tried (All Failed) Xcode Components: The version 18.5 does not appear in Settings -> Components, so I cannot delete it via the GUI. Simctl: xcrun simctl list runtimes does not list this version. Running xcrun simctl runtime delete 22F77 fails with: "No runtime disk images or bundles found matching '22F77'." Manual Deletion: sudo rm -rf [path] fails with "Operation not permitted", presumably because /System/Library/AssetsV2 is SIP-protected. Third-party Tools: Apps like DevCleaner do not detect this runtime (likely because they only scan ~/Library or /Library, not /System/Library). Has anyone found a way to force the system (perhaps via mobileassetd or a specific xcrun flag) to re-evaluate this folder and respect a deletion request? I am trying to avoid booting into Recovery Mode just to delete a cache file. Any insights on how AssetsV2 handles these "orphaned" files would be appreciated.

I constantly manually allow Codex to read Xcode 27 skills, but I don't want to allow it to read from any arbitrary directory, so I didn't enable always allow AgentRead. Question is in the title

MacBook Air (Apple silicon), macOS 26.6.2 (25G83). I have a persistent CoreSimulator/MobileAsset issue. I do not have an Xcode project, Simulator devices, or an active need for iOS Simulator runtimes. Using Apple’s signed CoreSimulator simctl binary, I removed iOS 18.4 (22E238) and iOS 18.5 (22F77) through the documented: simctl runtime delete workflow, after simctl reported each runtime as Ready, Verified, and Deletable. Immediately after deletion, the runtime registration and mounted runtime image disappeared. However, after a normal Mac restart or later CoreSimulator service activity, both runtimes reappear under new image UUIDs and are automatically mounted read-only again. The underlying Apple MobileAsset parents remain present and report NeverCollected: iOS 18.4 / build 22E238: about 8.9 GiB iOS 18.5 / build 22F77: about 8.9 GiB The related CoreSimulator dyld cache also rebuilds to about 7.1 GiB. I have not manually deleted protected Apple assets, killed Apple services, or modified mounts. The only removal attempted was Apple’s own simctl runtime delete command. Expected result: After a successful documented runtime deletion, the runtime should remain unregistered and unmounted, and the Apple-managed backing storage/cache should become reclaimable through a supported process. Observed result: The same runtime builds return after restart/service activity, with new UUIDs and automatic mounts, while their retained MobileAssets remain. Could Apple please advise why CoreSimulator/MobileAsset reconciliation is re-registering deleted runtimes, whether NeverCollected prevents supported cleanup, and what supported procedure can permanently remove or reconcile these unused runtimes? Useful read-only checks: SIMCTL_PATH=/Library/Developer/PrivateFrameworks/CoreSimulator.framework/Versions/A/Resources/bin/simctl "$SIMCTL_PATH" list runtimes "$SIMCTL_PATH" runtime list -v du -skx /Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Caches/dyld

Hi everyone, I’m currently running macOS 27.0 beta (26A5388g) on my Mac, along with the latest Xcode 27 beta, and I’ve recently started experiencing a serious issue where multiple macOS system services are repeatedly crashing. Initially, I started getting repeated “intelligencetasksd quit unexpectedly” notifications. At first it happened occasionally, but it has now become extremely frequent. After dismissing one crash notification, another system service often crashes shortly afterward. I’ve also seen services related to Intelligence / intents crashing. The notifications keep appearing one after another to the point where I’m barely able to use the Mac normally — including difficulty typing and interacting with applications. The issue is not limited to Xcode. It appears to affect macOS system services themselves. System information Mac: Mac15,2 (Apple silicon) macOS: macOS 27.0 beta, build 26A5388g Xcode: Xcode 27 beta Issue started: After running the macOS beta for some time; it has progressively become more frequent Main process initially crashing: intelligencetasksd Path shown in crash report: IntelligenceTasksEngine.framework/Support/intelligencetasksd Exception: EXC_BREAKPOINT (SIGTRAP) I have attached a screenshot of the crash report showing the intelligencetasksd crash. Has anyone else experienced this on macOS 27 beta? Is there a known issue with the new Intelligence/Intents services, or is there a recommended way to reset/rebuild the relevant system components? At this point the repeated crashes are making the Mac extremely difficult to use, so I’d really appreciate any troubleshooting steps or information about whether this is a known beta issue. Thanks!

Hi, I have been using Claude with Xcode 26.1.1 and it was working fine till a couple of days ago, when it started giving me an error message on every query: "Message from Anthropic: This request would exceed your account's rate limit. Please try again later." I am on the Pro model, and I can use the Claude.ai website just fine. The usage limits on the website show I've used only 11% of the weekly limit, and 4% of the 'current session'. So I'm wondering if this is an Xcode bug / issue, and if there is a workaround. I have restarted Xcode, restarted the Mac, logged out of Anthropic and logged back in, tried Xcode 26.2 beta as well, but no luck.

Hi, I’m new to Xcode and I’m wanting to publish a sticker app using the template. I have added all the stickers and icons and even tested in simulation, I also have registered the identity and app id but when I try to archive it I encounter two errors: _Communication with Apple failed Your team has no devices from which to generate a provisioning profile. Connect a device to use or manually add device IDs in Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles. https://developer.apple.com/account/ and No profiles for ' ' were found Xcode couldn't find any iOS App Development provisioning profiles matching ' ‘_ my understanding is that I don’t really need to do anything else nor need a physical device. the bundle is identical in the app id.

26.6.2 (25G83) with Xcode Version 26.6 (17F113) can't find AI components What's up

Hello! I'm new to xcode and am developing an iOS app. I hit the following error when build my app: MY_SHA no identity found Command CodeSign failed with a nonzero exit code I have generated my certificate through xcode. I can see the Certificate and the private key in Keychain -> login. But it's not that private key is under the Certificate. They are listed in parallel. The certificate appears in Certificate tab but not in My Certificate Tab. Would that matter? security find-certificate -a -Z | grep -A1 "Apple Development" Gives me the certificate. But security find-identity -v -p codesigning give 0 valid identity found. Could you help me figure out what could be the reason for this? I've been stuck for several days now. Thank you so much!

When a view combines .navigationBarBackButtonHidden(true) with a custom ToolbarItem(placement: .navigationBarLeading) back button, both controls render side by side in the navigation bar — the system back button is not fully suppressed, only visually emptied. This appears to be related to the new Liquid Glass toolbar platter system introduced this cycle. Environment Xcode 27 beta 3 iOS Version : 27.0 Reproduces on: Simulator 16.0 (1063.4) SimulatorKit 955.7 CoreSimulator 1168 Steps to Reproduce Create a NavigationStack with a root view and a pushed detail view. On the detail view, set .navigationBarBackButtonHidden(true). Also add a custom back button via .toolbar { ToolbarItem(placement: .navigationBarLeading) { Button { dismiss() } label: { HStack { Image(systemName: "chevron.backward"); Text("Back") } } } }. Expected Result Only the custom "Back" button (chevron + text) is visible. Actual Result Two back-button-shaped controls appear side by side: an empty/default system back button platter, and the custom "Back" button. Confirmed via Xcode's View Debugger (Debug ▸ View Debugging ▸ Capture View Hierarchy): two sibling UIPlatformGlassInteractionView nodes exist under NavigationBarPlatterContainer_v2 ▸ PlatterContainerHostingView. One wraps a bare, unlabeled _UIButtonBarButton (the system-generated back control); the other wraps a BarItemView containing the app's custom Button (chevron + "Back" text). Both are laid out as independent glass platters rather than being merged into one leading toolbar group. Minimal Reproducible Project Attached: [BackButtonDuplicationRepro.zip] — a stripped-down single-screen repro isolating just this behavior (no navigation stack customization, no third-party code). Related report This looks like the same underlying issue as thread 812048 ("Toolbar Rendering Bug — ToolbarItem Duplication when Back Button Hidden"), which an Apple DTS engineer has already responded to requesting a reproducible project — hopefully this attached project + View Debugger evidence helps move that along. Also potentially related: thread 814816 (hidesSharedBackground not working for backBarButtonItem), which points at the same general area of the new Liquid Glass toolbar/platter system.
