I have tried to download several times Xcode beta version which should be Xcode 11 beta 7 with iOS 13.1 beta support. I am downloading it from this link: https://download.developer.apple.com/Developer_Tools/Xcode_11_Beta_7/Xcode_11_Beta_7.xip
Also, when unpacking, it's obviously saying that it's unpacking Xcode 11 beta 7:
But after unpacking it (on 27th of August around 23:05), I am seeing following:
And when I start Xcode I see this:
Any ideas what might be happening?
Thanks in advance for any kind of answer.
My educated guess is that they just forgot to update the name. Note that the About box says the build is 11M392r, which is what the download site says you're getting. By the way, the beta 6 I have is 11M392q.
The release notes for Xcode 11 beta 7 have been updated with:
Warning:
Xcode Previews in Xcode 11 beta 7 have a known incompatibility with macOS Catalina beta 6. Upgrade to macOS Catalina beta 7 or later. (54621598) and
Known Issues:
Xcode 11 beta 7 incorrectly reports as beta 6 on the welcome screen. (54795525)
Looks like they forgot to change 6 to 7. And you need to rename 13.0 folder to 13.1 to support latest iOS beta (if you copy this folder to Xcode 10.3).

Just downloaded the latest Xcode 13 beta 3 but i can't get the preview working:
PlatformDoesNotHaveAgentsError: Missing required components for iOS
Xcode is missing components needed to preview on iOS
==================================
| HumanReadableSwiftError | | LocationError: noBundle
Rebooting not helped.
Tested on MBP Intel, macOS 11.4
I don't know if it's a problem on my mac or a bug introduced in this version.
Any clue ?
Edit: It look like to only works when you select an iOS 15 simulator, you can not longer uses iOS 14.x version...
What fixed it for me was selecting a simulator that had the iOS version on it that the version of xcode was built for.. ex: Select simulator with iOS 15 when using XCode Beta 13
I also faced this problem with Xcode 13.1. Today, Xcode 13.2 was released, and iOS 14.5 now also works with Canvas without this issue in this new version for me. So, this issue seems to be fixed.
PS. Be aware of the problem with the app store version: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/696504, https://www.macrumors.com/2021/12/14/xcode-13-2-bug/
I have been working on a project using Xcode recently, and I looked up instructions on a website, but the code was only for Xcode 7.1, and I only have Xcode 8! I followed the steps instructed on the website but there were way too many errors! Is there a way to downgrade Xcode without using the apple website or deleted the current Xcode I have now?
You can download both Xcode 8 and Xcode 7 into your computer. But you can't downgrade it.
You try download it here
I noticed that there are no preview or simulator for iOS6 in Xcode 6-beta, so I was wondering is there any way that I could add it manually ?
No.
Apple only support iOS7 and iOS8, and they're strict with that. As a result, only iOS7/8 simulators are available in Xcode 6.
If you want to run on an older simulator, you need to develop on an older version of XCode.
Not possible. But: you can still test on a iOS 6 device from Xcode 6. I keep an old iPhone 4 for this (look at eBay).
EDIT: there is another way - install Xcode 5 on a virtual machine (e.g. VMWare Fusion) running Mavericks.
iOS6 simulator is available in Xcode5
No, the earliest SDK you can get for Xcode 6 is 7.1. By default, the iOS 7 simulator is not installed but you can install it by going to preferences, then to downloads and installing it from there.
To run iOS 6 applications, try googling around for an earlier Xcode version (late versions of 4) and these should have the simulator!
Hope that helps!
I would like to try building a swift app, but I am afraid to upgrade my Mac to Yosemite Developer Preview. I am not clear if this is a prerequisite.
Just to get the official source in here, the Xcode 6 Beta 1 Release Notes state:
Xcode 6 Beta requires a Mac running OS X version 10.9.3 (or later) or 10.10.
And Xcode 6 comes bundled with Swift.
It's not a prerequisite. You can install the XCode 6 beta which includes swift support as long as you have the newest version of Mavericks (10.9.3)
No. I am using Mavericks (10.9.3), and Xcode6 beta is working well, and built program is also working well.
Just realised I've made a mistake of updating xcode 4.5 (iOS 6) as it causing problems.
How to uninstall xcode 4.5 (iOS 6)? safely? as iOS 6 is beta. I want to go back to xcode 5.1.
iOS6 is no longer beta. So if you installed Xcode 4.5 from the store, you already have the release version of Xcode 4.5. If not, get it from the store.
If you want an older version of Xcode, look here.
There are cases where you may not want to upgrade to the latest version of Xcode.
In my company there are still customers with iPhone 3 that are running iOS 4.2.1 and Xcode 4.5 won't generate code for it. Xcode will generate for 4.3 upwards.
Surprisingly I have an iPhone 3 (A1303) that has been upgraded to iOS 6.0 and Xcode won't generate code for that either.
So, for those that do need to downgrade, you use the link that #leo posted to get hold of the dmg for the version of Xcode you want (4.4.1 probably) and mount it. You then find the existing Xcode (in your application folder) and drag it to the waste bin, then drag the downgraded Xcode to the application folder. You may need to re-install the command line tools, if you use them. Make sure you get the version for your Mac's OS.
