Why is newsstand my only app in IOS simulator? - ios

At one point I had to do a timemachine recovery of everything on my iMac. Ever since then, when I open my IOS simulator, the only app it shows is Newsstand. I have upgraded to the most recent versions of xcode (4.3.3 (4E3002)) and ios simulator (5.1 (272.21)) and still see the issue. I have also tried removing ~/Library/Application\ Support\iPhone Simulator\ and that makes no difference. Has anyone ever seen this problem? What can I do to get other apps back? I really need to be able to use mobile Safari for some testing.

This happened to me before. I solved the issue by uninstalling xcode and the simulator file, which looks like the same path as yours. I then re-started my computer and re-downloaded xcode and it worked fine...
Good luck.

Just logging out and then logging back in addressed the problem for me.

There was an error with communicating with your device in Xcode

I searched all resources last day and didn't get a successful result. Please take it into consideration that I could test with this device a few days ago. But today I didn't do. Also I tested this iPhone with another mac, the result is the same. The device is an iPhone 6s.
I did the following things:
-restart Xcode
-restart mac
-restart device
-clean& build project
Please help me for solving this problem.

I had the same problem and I restarted my iPhone. Now it's working.
Problem was due to device OS version.I just updated device version to 11.0 and restared device.Then problem solved.Hope this comment will help to someone
For others also dealing with this problem and couldn't find anything that worked for them. I fixed it by restarting my MacBookPro.
~~ What I tried ~~
Restarting the iPhone did not help, tried it 3 times.
Uninstalling and reinstalling the app did not help.
Changing the Wi-Fi did not help.
Restarting Xcode did not help.
Unplugging and replugging the iPhone did not help.
Disabling "Connect over network" in Xcode did not help.
~~ What I checked ~~
Xcode is the newest version.
iOS is the newest version
I couldn't try another Mac cause I only have one.
I also only have one cable.
I only have one version of Xcode installed.
Please check the following notes:
Make sure to answer the trust this Mac when you attached the device; If the device is not trusted, it effectively shuts down communications between the two devices.
Try any different cable.
Check if you have 2 different versions of Xcode installed in your machine.
Apparently, this error can occur because of multiple issues. In my case, when I restarted the iPhone, it asked me to re-enter password for my apple id. Once the password was verified, I was able to run the application on the iPhone.
Error happened to me because my iPad was full on disk space. I was unaware of this until I restarted it.
I had this issue happen to my iPad 3 on iOS 9.3.5 I just needed to reboot the iPad and allow it to show me an "activation lock" screen (for some reason) that I simply had to reenter my iCloud password into. Also, it showed me the "storage almost full" message on reboot

No developer settings in iOS 9?

Yesterday I was studying iOS development. I had just updated my Xcode and was finally able to deploy my apps to my iPhone. However, all of a sudden, my iPhone got a weird bug where it wasn't working at all. I restarted it, only to find that the developer section in settings was gone. I thought it might be some bugs from the beta version I was using, and decided to finally do the update (I had my memory all used up, so I didn't do it sooner in order to not delete anything). I thought that would fix my issue, and at least give my iPhone developer rights again. But it didn't. I've been searching for ways to do it since last night and I am unable to find anything recent, as they are all for older versions of iOS or Xcode. I tried them, but either they just don't work, or the path they use is now not existent.
Any ideas what that could be and how I could fix it?

iOS - app works on device but not on simulator (anymore)

I know already that there are topics like that, but nothing helped in my case ...
Here the info:
The app worked both on simulator and device the whole time.
I renamed the project recently into another name. Still worked both fine.
Today I realized that it didn't change the folder name and then it couldn't run anymore because it had somewhere the location saved from before. Then I gave the folder the old name again and it could build and run it on the device again. But weirdly enough it doesn't run on the simulator anymore.
Funny thing is also that it said that the profiles were expiring, which weren't even related to that project so I deleted them. No errors, nothing. It just builds and directly finishes on the simulator.
The app is build for iOS6 and doesn't support earlier versions. So it can't be the armv6 armv7 architecture problem ...
What I also tried is the following: I zip every bigger version change and save it on an external HD (in case anything dies) and also have it uploaded at bitbucket. I reset my project to those old working versions and it neither ran on the Simulator.
Thanks in advance for further tips!
I guess the problem should be in your simulator but not necessarily in your app. Please have a try to:
reset the simulator and retry
if it still doesn't work, remove the app on simulator and re-install it via Xcode debugging

Got stuck when deploy app on iphone

I got stuck when I try to deploy the test app on my device.
When I click run on XCode, the device is going to run the application. However, it stuck in the first view. And nothing is moving.
I was wondering if there is something wrong. Is it caused by jailbreak? My ios version is 5.0.1.
Then someone tell me what I could do to solve it.
There are some strange launch issues when debugging with LLDB.
Try using GDB instead
(EDIT) Latest Xcode 4.3 update with LLDB-112 should fix a lot of problems (but there are still bugs including reading of ivars)

Developing iOS/Xcode/PhoneGap app; randomly receive SIGABRT

I was developing an app in Xcode and everything was working just fine. I went to shut off my network on my Mac to try and simulate 'No Network' so I could test a setting I had just set using the Phonegap.js.
I suddenly got a SIGABRT notice and can no longer run the app on my iOS simulator. It builds just fine. This has happened to me before under different circumstances.
I have found that all I have to do is paste the same code into a new project and all is well. So it appears to not be a code issue.
I've researched it and found that many people around the web are reporting it but I could not find where anyone successfully fixed it.
That is why I was hoping that someone on StackOverflow might have seen this before and know how to fix it.
I did come across a suggestion to remove a line our of your plist info file but that was for an iPad target and I am targetting the iPhone (but I still tried it and it didn't work either way).
XCODE 4.2, PhoneGap 1.3.0, iPhone 5.0
I am about 99% convinced that it has to do with a bug in XCode and ARC.
