Okay this is the second time this has happened to me. I updated Xcode to version 7.3.1 from the Mac App Store, which took FOREVER. After the update finished, the version number remained at 7.2 even though the Updates section of the App Store shows Xcode 7.3.1 as a recent download.
This is a big problem because I can't run my app on my iPhone because I keep getting the "Could not find developer disk image" error since Xcode is not updated to the most recent version.
I can no longer "update" Xcode again since it's no longer in the Software Updates section in the App Store.
How do I fix this problem?

Just showing the Documentation Window crashes XCode 12 (cmd-shit-0) - anytime I do it.
Does anybody have the same problem, an explanation or a work around ?
Update: There's now a new version (12.0.1) in the App Store that fixes this issue.
I'm experiencing the same when using the version from the App Store. People in this Apple Forums thread are reporting that it doesn't occur with the GM download from Apple's developer resources, despite the build identifiers being exactly the same.
Anecdotally, I can confirm that I was able to use documentation in the GM version before I deleted it in favor of the App Store version. So this may in fact be a viable workaround until the App Store version is fixed.
The Xcode on the app store is some sort of unknown version, (Since there it release even before the GM version available). So get rid of it and Download The Xcode From The developer.apple.com or click the proper version below. Then it. will work like a charm.

Don't forget to remove the appstore version downloaded Xcode
Direct Download
Xcode 12
Xcode 12.2 Beta
I use xcode 12 beta 5 works well can open document window, when I upgrade to GM seed, it can not open document window any more. When I fallback to xcode 12 beta ,open document it crash every time. All these happened on mbp13 pro, but my another mbp 15 with the same macos version works very well.
I guess it have something with macOS system, not xcode version.
Now I upgrade xcode by AppStore ,crash all the same.
Could not locate device support files.
This iPhone 5s (Model A1457, A1518, A1528, A1530) is running iOS 10.3.1 (14E304), which may not be supported by this version of Xcode.
You need to update Xcode whenever the iOS version you want to work with is higher than the highest version that Xcode's simulator has installed. This can be done one of two ways. The simplest is to use the App Store to download/update Xcode. If the App Store doesn't show any updates, you must manually download the latest Xcode build from https://developer.apple.com/.
You will need to manually download from the Developer portal when the version of Xcode on your computer was downloaded there previously. For example, many beta testers may download the file directly instead of using the Mac App Store, since it is a beta download.
I would recommend trying to keep updates done through the App Store by downloading Xcode from there initially. The benefit to this is that it can automatically update as well as save space on your computer (Xcode is a big file, and you may not have enough space to download a new version if you still have the old version).
As of the comments, I will now write an answer. :-)
Whenever you encounter this error there might be two reasons for that:
The OS version is too old
The iPhone's/iPad's OS is too new for your Xcode version
If it is too old, you may need to download older SDKs and OS versions.
You can do so in Xcode. Go to "Preferences" -> "Components" and download the appropriate Simulator.
If the devices OS is up to date, you have to make sure your Xcode is also up to date.
Either you update Xcode through the AppStore OR (and I prefer this way, as the AppStore is used to hang up in a certain state and cannot be completed any longer until you restart the Mac, at least I had this several times).
Side note: Xcode requires multiple GB of free storage. Make sure you have enough free storage left for an update.
You can download the latest Xcode version from the https://developer.apple.com portal:
Go to Downloads:
And then select the item of interest (in your case Xcode)
Trying to download Xcode 7.3.1 but download process is stuck for atleast 1 - 1/2 hour, is it stuck, is it going to complete? I have latest Mac OS installed
Tried solution provided on this link but non worked
XCode 7.3.1 Update Not Installing
It always happens to me (Well, not always but it happens, and also with another apps). What I do is to delete the Xcode app, and then install it again from the App Store or from the Developer's site.
Im trying to get crash symbolication to work on Xcode 7. My app is already on the Mac App Store and I'm getting crash reports. The problem is that they are not symbolized. When uploading to itunesconnect I did check the option to upload the DSYM files.
If you notice on the screenshot below, the first 2 lines are indeed symbolized, but they belong to one of my frameworks not the main application. The main application is giving me a 0X10093d000 symbol repeatedly.
What could be the problem?
[Update: Still don't have all crashes symbolicated in 7.3, but for each crash condition, we can usually page to an individual crash report which is symbolicated]
Try XCode 7.3
For reasons unknown, we can only reliably symbolicate our latest production release with XCode 7.3, even though we didn't use it to create the release.
7.3 introduced some new errors and warnings, so if you do download it, I recommend you download it from Developer Center and install in a seperate directory which does not overwrite your current XCode 7.x install.
just install the new version of Xcode (7.2.1), he took a little longer than expected.
But when it finished and run the xcode continues with version 7.1.1
I thought it would be solved by restarting the Mac, but no.
Any idea what can be spent? or happened to me to be done?
!EDITED!
My MAC version.
My xcode options
My applications
I had exactly the same problem. I installed 4GB large 7.2.1 version of Xcode from the AppStore over an existing 7.2 version, and whichever way I was launching Xcode it was always the same old 7.2 popping up. What was worse I could not download 7.2.1 again, as AppStore app was not showing Install button anymore, but rather Launch button instead (like it was installed).
Finally I found a solution. I went to Downloads for Apple Developers site (a login to a developer account was required), I dowloaded Xcode_7.2.1.dmg 4.7GB large from there, launched an installation... which successfully replaced the older 7.2 version of Xcode.
Another answer suggests installing Xcode via a Developer Member Center download. I'd like to caution against this, and suggest an alternative approach.
Shortly before Xcode 7 became available, I upgraded an Xcode 6 installation to 6.4 by using the download. I did this to save download time for upgrading multiple machines (I put the installer on a flash drive). I subsequently discovered that using the downloaded installer broke tracking the version history in the App Store, and I was no longer able to upgrade via the App Store. Also, I was no longer notified of pending Xcode updates via the MAS "Updates" panel.
So a possible consequence for you may be that the App Store may not be able to handle your future Xcode updates, or even notify you when an update is pending.
What I ended up doing was deleting my then-current Xcode installation (I used AppDelete to get all of the components of the installation), and starting from scratch using the App Store. I recommend doing the same. Probably the best way to start is to try deleting Xcode via Launchpad. But if that doesn't work (say, it doesn't delete all versions if you still have multiple versions), try AppDelete or a similar app.
I should note that one reason I used the download to upgrade Xcode 6 was that I'd done so previously without breaking the App Store's ability to track Xcode's version history. Whether that previous behavior was a fluke, or whether the later behavior (losing the version history) was a fluke, I can't say.
If you've already installed via the Member Center installer, you can check to see if you'll have this problem by looking up Xcode in MAS. If the store shows you have the version you manually installed, then all is well (probably!). If not, either you'll have to keep track of updates by yourself, or you should re-establish MAS version tracking by deleting Xcode and starting from scratch via MAS. I'd be interested to learn whether the store is tracking your manual installation.
