I've got this weird problem from last night, where I cannot open Xcode anymore!
It is stuck with an empty tab loading view, and is just not responding... :-/
I have deleted Xcode4 and re-installed, it keep giving me that same problem... And also tried with Xcode 5, and still.... so I guess the problem is somewhere on my computer... What can I do?
Really need to fix this for work.
Found my solution on a similar linked problem :
Xcode freezes on startup while loading project
Due to the restore feature, all the windows you left open in a given application remain open when you relaunch it. To avoid this, discard the previously open windows by holding the option key while pressing CMD+Q. Try starting Xcode and quitting it with option held before it's had a chance to open your windows, then re-launch it and it shouldn't try to open the windows.
Fixed the problem for me.

I'm experiencing a very strange error: my Xcode is freezing when I quit a certain storyboard of a certain project.
When i open Xcode, the xib shows up normally, I can even edit it and save it. But when I'm trying to open another file, any other file, it freezes forever.
I tried to delete every temporary files as described here, or here, or here, but the problem still remains. Ah, and... re-create my xib is obviously not an option...
Any other idea?
EDIT:
When I delete myProject/[project.xcworkspace/]xcuserdata (s), I can navigate in my project as usual while I don't open the storyboard. otherwise my problem comes again.
Since my post about this problem, I saw it on other projects. I'm pretty sure this was linked to custom fonts in xib, because it often happened after an Xcode bug rendering custom fonts.
Few days ago I downloaded the last Xcode version, 6.3.2, and the problem did not bother me again. So it seems to be resolved.
I am using Xcode 5.0.2 and yesterday I did nothing special but used its source control function to check out and update from svn.
Today, Xcode continues crashing over and over again when it launches. I googled a solution that is disabling the source control in Xcode's Preference.
But since it crashes when it launches, I don't have change to go into the Preference Panel to do the operations.
So is there command that I can do in Terminal to disable the source control of Xcode?
!!!UPDATE:
actually this is not the real problem I ran into. I thought my Xcode crash because of the source control issue. So I send this post and got an answer quickly. Thanks #zzyclark .
But after I did as the post in the link said, my Xcode still crash. I've used other way and got the problem done.
I am gonna keep this post for the people who really want to disable Xcode source control in Terminal.
But if the admin think this is not the propriety. You could delete this post.
rather than close it in terminal, can u check this. This is used to disable the version control of xcode 4 by modifying the file name extension.Can you disable version control integration in Xcode 4
Just updated to Xcode 5 and this is the first error its throwing on the logger for all my apps. Can't seem to understand why this is happening.

Edit (11-11-2013): To everyone reading, once I waiting for a solid working solution to accept and close. The highest voted answer works until you re-open the project only.
Edit (30-09-2014): I can see this has been sorted since XCode 6 has been released! Finally
Final Edit-
Temporary workaround: click iOS Simulator > Reset Content and
Settings... and run again.
This error message may reappear at random. For me, it happens when I
launch a different application. There are several threads in Apple dev
forums and in StackOverflow about this problem, but none have a
definitive answer. This seems to be a SDK error to be fixed in the
next Xcode version.

Further Edit
Although this was potentially the issue resolution at the time. I believe some of the newer answers below relating to the better touch tool are in fact the correct resolutions.
After reading Kirill's answer I did some digging as I didn't want to disable BetterTouchTool for everything just the "iOS Simulator" and you can.
Open the "iOS Simulator" and will it as the active app go to the BTT drop-down menu from the top bar (of that screen if you have more than one) and select "Disable BTT for Current App". It will turn to a play icon when it's disabled.
Make sure the app name on the bar is still "iOS Simulator" as mine jumped to "Finder" a few times when I clicked the top bar!
Now re-set the simulator (if it doesn't work) and rebuild. You shouldn't get the error! :)
Don't forget to clear the error if it's still there. ;)
BTT seems to remember what apps it's disabled for (or at least it does when you close and re-open the app that's disabled I haven't tried a system re-boot yet).
Its easy. Go iOS simulator and reset content and setting.
Thanks
If you are using XCode-5 then just reset the simulator "Reset Content and Settings" and run once again
So I was having this error too in Xcode 5 and 5.1. I wanted to figure out if it's Xcode bug or something else, so I did a fresh install of Mavericks 10.9.2 and Xcode 5.1. Everything seemed fine after multiple tests.
Here is where the problem began. I put the apps and settings that I mostly use and the error came back. So I deleted everything and started adding everything one by one. After couple days I had bingo! The problem is with BetterSnapTool and BetterTouchTool
Update 12.12.2014
Just started using Xcode 6.1 and noticed that this bug seems to be gone at least with Xcode 6.1 simulators and BTT 0.9985 versions.
Update:
As GasB pointed out, it is possible to disable BTT for certain apps. So just disable it for iOS Simulator. You just have to remember not to use gestures while using the simulator as that triggers the error message.
Simple solution:
Remove the ticks in preference pane, reset simulator and do clean build. The error message will disappear.

I had the same problem and solved it setting the 'Localization native development region' to match my systems region. In my case from 'en' to 'de'. The referenced files are stored in localized versions in your filesystem. So this setting is used to identify the needed version.
You can find that setting in your project settings at 'Info' -> 'Custom iOS Target Properties'.
Resetting the simulator ‘fixes’ it because it turns the accessibility support off. You can normally achieve the same by simply disabling the ‘Accessibility Inspector’ in the ‘Settings’ app.
If, however, you need it enabled, particularly hate this error message, and are feeling adventurous then you can use the following monkey patches to silence the error: https://gist.github.com/alloy/9277316. (Be sure to NOT include this in your release builds.)
Resetting the simulator is a PITA, I found a way to get rid of these messages without having to to this:
go to Settings > Accessibility
turn on Accessibility Inspector
turn off Accessibility Inspector
quit Simulator
I had this problem with Xcode 5 in ML 10.8.5
I re-installed Mountain Lion (in a Parallels' VM), then update ML to 10.8.5.
Then installrd Xcode 5, and it's worked fine.
I think that the error is caused by a third SW installed in ML.
The application Moom is also causing this issue, and I couldn't find a way to disable it for just the iOS Simulator. So for now I disabled it's accessibility features.
I'm on Mavericks (10.9.3) and encountered the same error in xCode(5.1.1).
I tried anything - reinstalling xCode from both AppStore and dmg. Resetting the emulator resulted in the same error and deleting the Simulator SDK folder gave no results too.
The issue on my end was indeed Moom as mentioned by #aorcsik! Disabling it's accessibility, followed by clean (cmd+shift+k) in xCode cleared the error.
Open Disk Utility and apply Repair Disk Permissions in Macintosh HD.
After doing above step, apply Reset Contents and Settings in iOS Simulator.
This above solution can definitely fix your problem.
I had this problem, and none of the answers in this thread could fix it. Mine was simple UI with a UIDatePicker. I resolved it by removing the UIDatePicker and the associated code, then added them in again. Problem solved!
For me it was Keyboard Maestro, adding the simulator to Maestro's exclude list silenced the warnings
I have installed Xcode 4.3 version. I can't click on any button of the Xcode bar, because Xcode freeze at startup, and if i move the cursor on the bar, i have only the loading cursor available. So i can't click on Window Tab to restore the Welcome Window, and i can't open a new project.
It seems that Xcode is not loading any project, and maybe it is the problem it has not found any project, and it continues to search anyway. If I try to launch an existing project, Xcode tries to open it, but the result is always the blank window with "No Editor".
Please help me to come out from this issue or any one please tell me how can I remove all the logs, settings and back up files of Xcode
Thanks in Advance
I solved the problem :) Simply download and install the latest version of iTunes, it's fixed :) Now i can work with Xcode. I dont know whats the connection between Xcode and iTunes. Cheers....
I recently installed Xcode and after closing out of the first launch (because I realized I had more configuring to do). I cannot get it to re-launch. The icon will come up, but no program will show up. I do not get an error, and I am launching from the /Developer folder (not /Applications). I have tried re-installing/restarting multiple times to no avail. I have the latest version, and I am running Snow Leopard (10.6.6).
The icon will come up, but no program will show up.
Are you new to OS X? It sounds like you are describing the way OS X apps normally start up. By default, Xcode pops up a window with a list of most recent projects, but you can switch this off. It doesn't mean that Xcode isn't running, it just means you don't have any Xcode windows open. You can still select any of the usual menu items to start new projects, open existing projects, etc.
The answer to this problem is I believe easily sorted. Once you open X code and all you get is the menu bar at the top, go to Window, Welcome to x Code, then check the box bottom left hand corner of that screen 'Show this window when Xcode launches'
Job done ! Now every time you hit the Xcode icon where ever it is the welcome screen will open and from there you can proceed into the program.
Probably not your problem, but I had issues starting xcode with it trying to load up the last project I was working on. It would just hang and I had to force quit it.
In the end I deleted these directories:
project.xcworkspace/
xcuserdata/
and next time I tried to restart xcode it started fine.
Please go project folder and right click ."xcworkspace" and open "show package contents"-> xcuserdata and delete user folder and then relaunch.
In my case I launched XCode 6 (beta 7) on my MacBook Pro Mid 2010, and I had to wait for ~10minutes for anything to happen. I didn't see icon in dock, or even menu bar - just a reference in Force Quit Applications menu. After those 10 minutes classic alert with "You have downloaded Xcode from internet..." title appeared and then i had to wait another 5 minutes for another progress (installation of additional components).In overall it took Xcode 6 ~25 minutes to start.
So... Patience! :)
