Hello Xcode 26.0.1 (17A400) Missing some Metal components When building a program using Metal, it induces an unexpected error : “error: error: cannot execute tool 'metal' due to missing Metal Toolchain; use: xcodebuild -downloadComponent MetalToolchain Command CompileMetalFile failed with a nonzero exit code” Which terminates the build The fix given “xcodebuild -downloadComponent MetalToolchain” using sudo does not work Did someone find a work around or could resolve the issue? Many thanks Jean MacBook Air M4; macOS 26.0.1; Xcode 26.0.1

I'm attempting to compile my app (on macOS 26), opting into the "Enhanced Security" (Xcode Version 26.0.1 (17A400)). Following Apple's documentation I enabled the capability via Xcode and clicked "Enable Build Settings" though now compilation fails: Use of undeclared identifier 'malloc_type_zone_malloc_with_options_backdeploy'; did you mean 'malloc_type_zone_malloc_with_options'? The (AI-based?) "Generate Fix for Issue" throws an error too 😅 See attached screenshots

Cannot select individual view in selectable mode in Xcode preview, it only show the whole blue device border.

Hello, I’m new to macOS after many years on iPhone, and I’m trying to run a simple app on my iPhone directly from Xcode. The app builds fine in the simulator, but deploying to a real device fails with this error: The tunnel connection failed while the system tried to connect to the device. Domain: com.apple.dt.CoreDeviceError Code: 4 Failure Reason: The tunnel connection failed while the system tried to connect to the device. User Info: { DVTErrorCreationDateKey = "2025-10-02 16:55:53 +0000"; "com.apple.dt.DVTCoreDevice.operationName" = connect; } -- The tunnel connection failed while the system tried to connect to the device. Domain: com.apple.dt.RemotePairingError Code: 4 -- I get the same error via command line, e.g. for xcrun devicectl device info apps --device "..." My setup: macOS Version 26.0.1 (Build 25A362) Xcode 26.0.1 (Build 17A400) iPhone 13 on iOS 26.0.1 iPhone is paired with the Mac (I can see it in Finder and in Xcode alongside the simulator). Developer Mode is enabled on the iPhone. I also see my Apple Watch listed in Xcode. I might have enabled Multipath networking in the past - but in iOS 26.0.1, the setting is missing in the Developer settings - so there is no way to check if it's enabled or to disable it. I know this was the solution to a similar problem: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/737907 What I tried: Restarted both Mac and iPhone, unpaired them, paired them again. Disabled and re-nabled development mode Tried both Wi-Fi and wired connection (Apple-certified cable). Reset privacy and network settings on the iPhone. Verified I’m not running any VPN. Despite this, deployment always fails with the same tunnel connection error. Has anyone encountered this before or found a solution/workaround? Thank you very much, Martin

Hello everyone, I'm encountering a persistent issue with my newly created widget project, even though it’s a clean, minimal setup. Every time I try to run the widget on the simulator or a device, I get the following error message: [S:1] Error received: Connection invalidated. I get this error even in a new project (I just created a new one) when I add a widget extension to it. The app itself works fine—no errors—but when I try to install the widget extension, it always shows me this error. Initially, I thought the issue was caused by an incorrect URLSession, but even after creating a clean (default) widget extension, the issue persists. I don’t know what to think anymore. Has anyone encountered this before? It’s completely blocking my progress. Conditions - new project from iOS App template WidgetExtension from template with no changes Iphone 14 pro IOS - 18.3.2

Got emailed three .txt crash files. Cannot for the life of me figure out how to get Xcode to do something with them. Tried: renaming .txt to .crash Dropping onto "devices and simulators" window Dropping on to "devices and simulators > select device > View device logs" "Download debug symbols" for the archive in Xcode (says "dowloaded debug symbols" so did it) ... and many other things Xcode 13 simply refuses to respond to the drag-and-drop of the file no matter the file extension and no matter where in Xcode's various windows/tools I drop it. Has anyone done this with a crash .txt file from app review and Xcode 13?

I have an app on the App Store for many years enabling users to post text into clouds in augmented reality. Yet last week abruptly upon installing the app on the iPhone the screen started going totally dark and a list of little comprehensible logs came up of the kind: ARSCNCompositor <0x300ad0e00>: ARSCNCompositor (0, 0) initialization failed. Matting is not set up properly. many times, then RWorldTrackingTechnique <0x106235180>: Unable to update pose [PredictorFailure] for timestamp 870.392108 ARWorldTrackingTechnique <0x106235180>: Unable to predict pose [1] for timestamp 870.392108 again several times and then: ARWorldTrackingTechnique <0x106235180>: SLAM error callback: Error Domain=Slam Error Code=7 "Non fatal error occurred due to significant drop in a IMU data" UserInfo={NSDescription=Non fatal error occurred due to significant drop in a IMU data, NSLocalizedFailureReason=SlamEngineNodeGroup Failure: IMU issue: gyro data stream verification failed [Significant data drop].

I hoped the new beta version would have solved the issue, but it was not the case. Unfortunately I do not know if that depends on the beta version or some other issue, given the app may be not installed on the Mac simulator.

Hi everyone, After updating my Mac and Xcode to 26, I’m running into a consistent crash whenever I try to launch an app from Xcode. Environment: Mac: Apple Silicon M3 macOS: 26.0 (25A354) Xcode: 26.0.1 (17A400) Issue: When I press Run on any project (including new, empty projects), Xcode immediately crashes. This started only after updating to the latest macOS and Xcode. Crash details: The crash log shows: Application Specific Signatures: ___localError Thread 0 crashed inside -[IDEScheme _executionOperationForSchemeOperationParameters:...] from IDEFoundation/IDEKit. I also noticed background threads calling DVTPortal (developer portal requests) right before the crash. What I’ve tried so far: Cleared DerivedData, ModuleCache.noindex, and Xcode caches. Signed out/in of my Apple ID in Xcode. Recreated project schemes. Verified provisioning profiles. Reinstalled Xcode 26. Unfortunately, the crash still happens. Question: Is this a known issue with Xcode 26 on Apple Silicon (M3)? Has anyone seen a workaround? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated — I can’t currently launch apps in Xcode at all. Thanks!

At the Platform State of the Union, Apple demoed clicking a ✨ button in the Xcode toolbar to use Apple Intelligence in Xcode. I don't see that button in Xcode Version 26.0 beta (17A5241e). Am I missing it? It's supposed to be in the upper-left corner, right? Do I need to turn it on or something? I'm on macOS 15.5 Sequoia, on a 16-inch, 2021 MacBook Pro

When I try to build my project with Xcode 26.1 beta (17B5025f) it freezes a lot. The steps are as follows: Open my project with the aforementioned Xcode Start a build of one of my schemes Open a browser or any other app above the Xcode window Try to present the Xcode window on the foreground Result: Xcode freezes I cleared the Derived Data and it still happens

I get an error when using Share Extension to share images in iOS 26. It works fine in iOS 18. The error message is: Error acquiring assertion: <Error Domain=RBSAssertionErrorDomain Code=2 "Could not find attribute name in domain plist" UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=Could not find attribute name in domain plist}>. What should I do? My plist file looks like this: NSExtension NSExtensionAttributes NSExtensionActivationRule NSExtensionActivationSupportsImageWithMaxCount 1 NSExtensionMainStoryboard MainInterface NSExtensionPointIdentifier com.apple.share-services

Is it just because it's still so early or are we not getting the feature in the EU for the time being?

Build functions on simulator but when I select run on connected iPhone (12 Pro Max, latest iOS 18 beta) I am given a prompt window that says: Preparing Tom's iPhone Xcode will continue when the operation is complete with a loading icon. I have let it sit on this screen for over an hour with no change. Running Xcode 16 Beta 4 on M3 MacBook Pro

When I open the "devices and simulators" window now I only see "No selection" in the center. No sidebar pane, and no detail pane. I was able to set up some simulators up to last week or so, and now this. I've no idea how to create a new simulator or inspect the ones I have.

I have Xcode 16.4 and want to upgrade to Xcode26 on a MacBookPro with Intel and macOS 26.0. However I keep getting the error message (in German), that the download of the App is not possible, Xcode could not be installed and I should try later. I tried to restart the Mac, close all Apps etc. I tried it meanwhile several times, but still no success. Any Idea what I could try or do to solve the problem? Thx in advance

I recently updated to macOS sequoia 15.6 Afterward, I updated to Xcode 26 The project I've been running for the last couple years no longer compiles on existing simulators and doesn't build to a physical device. I'm getting an error I'm not familiar with and have no idea how to directly resolve it: The specific error is 'Command SwiftGeneratePch failed with a nonzero exit code' Looking up this issue via Google, there wasn't really a lot of information on this particular build failure. Most suggestions were to change the location of the Derived Data folder (Xcode -> File -> Project Settings -> update location of derived data from default to relative) This was one of the only actionable solutions I found online but this doesn't fully address the issue for me, it just creates a new issue: "Command PhaseScriptExecution failed with a nonzero exit code" I feel like with enough digging around I should be able to find a solution to the "PhaseScriptExecution" issue; there seems to be a decent amount of information online about that particular problem. I would prefer if I could solve the original 'SwiftGeneratePch" failure without needing to address other issues, though. Is this possible?

Error: Unable to install “My App” Failed to install embedded profile for com.apple.myapp : 0xe800801a (This provisioning profile does not have a valid signature (or it has a valid, but untrusted signature).) I've tried almost everything, but I keep getting the same message on a Mac Mini M1 and several physical iPhones (11 and 16, both Pro). On a MacBook Air (Sequoia 15.7) with the same account, the same profiles work without any problems; and on simulators with iOS 26, it also works without any problems. This clearly tells us that the provisioning profile is not the problem, which is what the message mentions. It obviously has to do with the 26 update. P.S All of this worked fine before installing iOS, macOS, and Xcode 26.

Just downloaded XCode 26 and I see build fails despite Metal toolchain 26.0 downloaded. What am I missing? cannot execute tool 'metal' due to missing Metal Toolchain; use: xcodebuild -downloadComponent MetalToolchain

Upgrading to Xcode 16.3, all previews across my AppKit project stopped working. The error message I'm getting is especially baffling. It says the project could not be built with incremental compilation because SWIFT_COMPILATION_MODE is set to "incremental": I tried clearing DerivedData with no effect. When I click the diagnostics button the information given is not very revealing, at least not to me. If I open the project in Xcode 16.2 everything works perfectly again. I switched over to Previews for all new code but this error situation is quite demotivating. Does anyone have any suggestions?
