How to fix Xcode error: Could not locate device support files on iPhone with Xcode


I have this error for the new iPhone X:
Error: Could not locate device support files

Could not locate device support files.

This iPhone X (Model A1865, A1901, A1902, A1903) is running iOS 11.1 (15B93), which may not be supported by this version of Xcode.

I'm running the latest version of Xcode (Beta 9.2 9C32c) which doesn't support the iPhone X (iOS 11.1). The problem is it's a brand new iPhone, and there are no older Configuration Files to do the switch talked in most of the solved posts.

Are there any other solution to this issue since downloading the latest version of Xcode is already what I'm running, and finding the Configuration Files to do the switch seems unlikely right now? Does anyone have those Configuration Files or know how to edit them to trick Xcode?


Solution

  • I had the same issue with my iPhone 8, Xcode Beta 9.2 did not support my version of iOS 11.1.

    However Xcode 9.1 does support my version of iOS 11.1
