I’ve developed an Apple Watch extension for an existing iOS app. When I run the app on the watch via Xcode using the simulator, everything works fine. However, when I try to install it on my iPhone, the Watch app doesn’t show it in the "Available Apps" list, so I can't install it on the watch. The Apple Watch is connected to my iPhone, and I can see other apps available for installation without any issues. I also created a brand new project with watchOS support to troubleshoot, but the same problem occurred. Any ideas on how to resolve this?

Hi, the really handy shortcut to refresh the preview canvas in Xcode via keyboard shortcut option+command+p is not available anymore (!?!?). Also the menu-entry 'Canvas' in the previous versions <16.1 is not anymore. Did I miss any option to enable this again or was this some kind of silly cleanup driven by Apple?

Hi, I am encountering a linking issue with a project for an iOS .NET MAUI application that I am developing using Visual Studio 17.11.4. This project includes a custom static library (.a). The custom static library (.a) depends on the libxml2 library. However, it appears that libxml2 is not included in Xcode 15.4 (Sonoma OS), resulting in the following error: error : Undefined symbols for architecture arm64: error : "_xmlBufferCreate", referenced from: .... I have set the following additional arguments for compilation: -cxx -gcc_flags "-lz -lxml2". Despite my efforts to install libxml2 using Homebrew, I have not been successful. Could you please advise on how I can resolve this issue? Specifically, what is the path that Xcode uses to include libxml2?

Hello, I'm a software developer, my teammates and I have developed a mobile application, we want to share it on the Apple Store, but we can't buy a developer account, it doesn't accept our credit cards in any way, Apple support team in my location can't help, how can I buy a developer account?

The Account Holder is no longer able to log into apple (regardless of web-based or device based attempts). The membership will expire soon without access to the account holder. Both workflows "iforgot.apple.com" and "iforgot.apple.com/unlock" did not lead to an answer email within several days. I tried several times. So we are almost out of store without any option. Hotline did not show other options. Any ideas?

My question set is fairly broad, but I can't seem to find any answers anywhere. As a fairly low-level developer, the vast majority of my work is done with Sublime Text, terminal-based compilers, IDEs like Coq's (coq.inria.fr), and code that has to be compiled by terminal. These projects are at the very fabric of what I do, and I fear that Rosetta 2 will be inadequate until LLVM and other systems are updated to run natively on Apple Silicon. Honestly, I can't really afford complex virtualization systems like Parallels or VMWare (not that they help much) and I'd rather not give up MacOS for my Ubuntu desktop. I was raised on MacOS and I can't imagine losing features like scenes or seamless integration with the rest of my electronics. I want to keep my initial post fairly simple and broad, but if anyone has any questions on what I need supported, feel free to ask. I am sure I'm not alone here.

I have a small Swift command line tool for MacOS. I have added a small demo CoreML model to the project and can correctly load the model in Swift like let model = try! Matcher_512x256(). However, once I add a single C++ or Objective C file to the Compile Sources of my build target, the compilation fails with an error stating that the model cannot be found: "...ModelAndCpp/ModelAndCpp/main.swift:11:18 Cannot find 'Matcher_512x256' in scope". Please help me resolve this. Does XCode change into a different "compilation mode" once a C++ file is present which might cause this error? XCode version is 16A242d. I can reproduce the issue with a tiny repository (5 small files) which I have uploaded here on GitHub. To reproduce the issue, simply remove the .m and .cpp files from Compile Sources to compile correctly, or add one of them to get the error. Thank you and best regards, Manuel

I just upgraded to Version 16.0 (16A242d) and unfortunately the App that used to run perfectly fine on Xcode 15 is now broken. It crashes right after showing the Launch Screen on the Simulator. Here's the formatted error message in the Console: dyld[80159]: Library not loaded: @rpath/AppName-iOS.debug.dylib Referenced from: <App ID> /path/to/AppName-iOS.app/AppName-iOS Reason: tried: '/path/to/DerivedData/AppName-iOS.debug.dylib' (no such file), '/path/to/CoreSimulator/Runtimes/iOS.simruntime/Contents/Resources/RuntimeRoot/usr/lib/system/introspection/AppName-iOS.debug.dylib' (no such file), '/path/to/AppName-iOS.app/AppName-iOS.debug.dylib' (code signature not valid for use in process: Trying to load an unsigned library), '/path/to/DerivedData/PackageFrameworks/AppName-iOS.debug.dylib' (no such file), '/path/to/AppName-iOS.app/Frameworks/AppName-iOS.debug.dylib' (no such file), '/path/to/CoreSimulator/Runtimes/iOS.simruntime/Contents/Resources/RuntimeRoot/usr/lib/AppName-iOS.debug.dylib' (no such file) For some reason the Library is unsigned and I've checked all the settings with no luck.

Hello! I have been successfully building out my Xcode project in the past few months to my iPhone 15. I recently got a new iPhone 16 pro and have been having a hell of a time trying to figure out how to build to my new phone. Here's the error I am getting: Unknown file type in '/Users/username/Desktop/filename/Libraries/libiPhone-lib.a' please help! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. NOTE: I am using a M1 laptop with Sequoia OS

Whan using a tabview set with a tabviewstyle of sidebaradaptable on macOS 15.1 beta 5 the tabs are non responsive and is basically broken. Example code... If you click around on these tabs you will see it is not responsive. When you add a lot more tabs from a for loop for example you really get poor performance. But this is not the case with earlier beta releases. TabView {                 Tab("One", systemImage: "1.circle.fill") {                     Text("Test One")                 }                 Tab("Two", systemImage: "2.circle.fill") {                     Text("Test Two")                 }                 Tab("Three", systemImage: "3.circle.fill") {                     Text("Test Three")                 }             }             .tabViewStyle(.sidebarAdaptable)

I have Xcode 16 and iPadOS 18.0 I am trying other connect the iPad to Xcode. It started with preparing iPad and Xcode will continue when the operation completes. It hangs now for 2 hours. What is wrong with it? There is lot of space at the iPad IOS 18.0 (22A3354) Pad Pro (11-inch) (2nd generation) It worked earlier with Xcode 15 and iPadOS 17

Has anyone else had this problem? I’ve had it on iOS 18 Dev beta 3 where I can’t move the volume slider for certain apps. I found a workaround, but it’s a bit tedious and has to be redone every time I restart my device. Here are the steps: Go to Accessibility. Turn on Sound Recognition. Click on any of the options under Sound Recognition. Turn off Sound Recognition. After that, the volume slider will work like normal. But, like I said, this only works until the next restart.

The project setup is as follows: Uses pods Has swift bridging header as it uses both Objc and Swift With Xcode Version 16.0 (16A242d), when building the project everything is fine but when I build the Documentation (Product > Build Documentation), I am getting this error via: /.../Project/Pods/FirebaseCore/FirebaseCore/Sources/Public/FirebaseCore/FIRLoggerLevel.h:23:28: redefinition of 'FIRLoggerLevel' ... Building the documentation of the same project with Xcode Version 15.4 works just fine, so the error must come from the new xcodebuild (Xcode 16.0 Build version 16A242d). Here are the pods in the project: pod 'Firebase/Crashlytics', '10.29.0' pod 'Firebase/Performance', '10.29.0' # (Recommended) Pod for Google Analytics pod 'FirebaseAnalytics', '10.29.0' pod 'GoogleAnalytics', '3.21' pod 'GoogleTagManager', '7.4.3' pod 'FirebaseRemoteConfig', '10.29.0' pod 'GoogleUtilities', '7.13.0' Tried with all latest, but the same issue persists. Any ideas, on how to resolve this? I read that it is not possible to disable the pods being build by docc as they are dependencies of the target which is being build by the docc process, if that is not true, maybe I can disable docc from building the Pods.

A few days ago, I updated my phone to the latest beta version 18.1, and usually the hotspot of my phone is on to connect to other devices. Today, I encountered a problem with the internet. After realizing the problem with the internet speed, I reset the network and after Hotspot reset cannot be accessed anywhere

"Can not preview in this file" Xcode 16.0 iPhone 14 Pro , iOS 18.0 When I choose to start Preview on my iPhone, the canvas screen keeps showing loading circle animation.

We build a number of iOS apps using different distribution certificates on a "headless" build machine in a data center. It is a burden to have to accept a newly imported certificate because codesign causes a dialog to pop up requesting to authorize the private key We have tried a number of suggestions in various posts, including deleting the certificate and re-importing with security import using the -T flag to allow codesign. After doing this, and even though the ACL shows a very similar picture to the post authorized state, keychain still requires a dialog to be "Allowed". What can be done, from the command line, to avoid this popup?

About 5 weeks ago, I requested a Family Controls Entitlement using this form: https://developer.apple.com/contact/request/family-controls-distribution I have yet to hear anything back. About a week ago, I submitted a support request through my Apple developer account, asking about the entitlement, and have also not heard anything back. Is it normal to wait this long? Is there a way to check on the status of my request? Is there some other channel I should be using to ask for information about this process?

Since upgrading to Xcode 16, I've noticed that when I add new files to my local Swift packages, the "Update Package" option is no longer available when I right-click on my local package. In previous versions of Xcode, I used this feature to make Xcode recognize newly added files without any issues. Now, with Xcode 16, the only way I've found to get Xcode to recognize new files is to remove and re-add the entire package, which is obviously not ideal. I've tried cleaning the build folder and rebuilding the project, but it doesn't seem to help. Is there a new workflow or method in Xcode 16 to refresh or update local Swift packages without needing to remove and re-add them every time? Any suggestions or workarounds would be greatly appreciated! What I’ve tried so far: Cleaning and rebuilding the project Looking for any options under "File > Packages" menu Environment: Xcode 16 Local Swift Package Thanks in advance!

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/metrickit I am unable to get the MetricKit logs for past 24 hours time period on my test flight build. I have been able to achieve immediate logs for crash, cpu exception and diskwrite exceptions. But the logs which contains all the crashes, cpu exceptions and diskwrite exceptions, battery and network details, etc for the previous day/24h are never generated. I have used the following method to log the payloads in the file systems. I have tested the same on normal xcode builds as well as TestFlight build. func didReceive(_ payloads: [MXDiagnosticPayload]) https://developer.apple.com/documentation/metrickit/mxmetricmanagersubscriber/didreceive(_:)-9yd4u
