"Could not find disk image for developers"

Recently, I get an error: "Could not find a disk image for developers"

I think this is happening since I upgraded iOS to 9.1 on the iPhone. How can I fix this problem and make Xcode support iOS 9.1 devices?

1) I had the same problem, my version of Xcode was 7.0.1, and I upgraded my iPhone to version 9.2, and then, using Xcode, my iPhone was shown in the inaccessible device section. As in the image below:

2) But then I somehow managed to select my iPhone by clicking on the button Product β†’ Destination β†’ Inaccessible device

3) But this did not solve my problem, and she began to show:

Could not find developer disk image

enter image description here

Solution) Then, finally, I downloaded the latest version of Xcode version 7.2 from here , and everything worked fine for me.

Update: Whenever the iPhone device version is higher than the Xcode version, you may experience the same problem, so you must update the Xcode version to remove this error.

Xcode 7.0.1 and iOS 9.1 are not compatible. You will need to update the version of Xcode through the Mac app store.

If your version of iOS is lower than the version of Xcode, on the other hand, you can change the deployment target for a lower version of iOS by going to the "General Settings" section, and in the "Deployment" section, specify the deployment target:

Note:

Xcode 7.1 does not include the iOS 9.2 beta SDK. Updated to Xcode to 7.2 beta by downloading it from the Xcode website .

I am facing the same issue on Xcode 7.3 and my device version is iOS 10 .

This error is displayed if your Xcode and the device you are using are updated to the latest version. First of all, install the latest version of Xcode.

We can solve this problem by following these steps: -

  • Open Finder, select Applications
  • Right-click on Xcode 8, select "Show Package Contents", "Content", "Developer", "Platforms", "iPhoneOS. Platform", "Device Support".
  • Copy folder 10.0 (or higher for a later version).
  • Return to Finder again select Applications
  • Right-click Xcode 7.3, select "Show Package Contents", "Content", "Developer", "Platforms", "iPhoneOS.Platform", "Device Support".
  • Insert folder 10.0

If everything works correctly, your Xcode has a new developer disk image. Close the search engine now and exit your Xcode . Open your Xcode and the error will disappear. Now you can connect your latest device to older versions of Xcode .

If the Xcode version is lower than the image of the iOS device, you can either copy the disk image from another already updated Xcode (or, possibly, the Internet), or update the Xcode.

The image is a folder larger than 10 MB and the location (find or place) here along this path "/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSup port /".

To enter the Xcode.app package, hold down the control key and press Xcode.app, you will find an additional option, for example, the contents of the show package or another word. Select this option and you will enter Xcode.app as you insert a regular folder.

Hope this is helpful and good luck!

Then restart Xcode. enter image description here

If you want to develop with Xcode 7 on your iOS10 device:
(Note: you can adapt this command to other versions of Xcode and iOS)

  • Rename Xcode.app to Xcode7.app and download Xcode 8 from the app store.
  • Launch Xcode 8 once to install it.

  • Open a terminal and create a symlink from Xcode 8 Developer Disk Image 10.0 to Xcode 8 Developer Disk Image with this command:

     ln -s /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/10.0\ \(14A345\)/ /Applications/Xcode7.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/10.0

This solution only works if you create the directory β€œ10.0” in Xcode 7 and you have an error in your sentence:

 ln -s /Applications/Xcode_8.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/10.0 \(14A345\) /Applications/Xcode_7.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/10.0

The old version of Xcode does not have a developer disk image for the new version of iOS. If you don’t want to update Xcode, you can find ready-made developer disk images for the latest versions in this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/4646/
