Simulator is not available error (Xcode 6.1)


I am about to upload the latest version of my app to the App Store, however up until this point I haven't done a whole lot of testing on iOS 7.

When I go to use the simulator, I am getting the error:

iPhone 4S is not available: Please select a different device and try again.

My deployment target is set correctly to 7.0.

Has anyone experienced this error? Any solutions?

Solution

  • Make sure you have the iOS 7 simulators installed. Navigate to Xcode -> Preferences -> Downloads -> Components and make sure the 7.0 and/or 7.1 simulators are downloaded. If there are check boxes next to each simulator, click "Check and install now" to see if any simulators need to be re-downloaded.
