I can’t open Xcode project after updating to Catalina
How to solve this problem?
Solution no. 1:
Xcode 11.1 is available on the Mac App Store now so you should probably be using that. Try a force brute approach by deleting Xcode 11, redownload and reinstall.
Solution no. 2:
I was able to work around this by uninstalling Xcode first. What I did:
Xcode For Macos Catalina 10.15 Full
- Open Finder and navigate to Applications.
- Move Xcode from Applications to Trash.
- In the terminal, run the command
rm -rf ~/Library/Developer - In the terminal, run the command
rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.dt.Xcode - Restart your machine.
- Now go to
App Storeand search forXcodeand install it from there.
Solution no. 3:
This works for me.
Close you project then Go to your project file > right click on project_name.xcworkspace > Show Package Contents > delete folder xcsharedata and xcworkspace.
It will create deleted file again once you open that project
Solution no. 4:
One could also try to perhaps add the program to the list of apps allowed to access the disk.
This can be found under: Settings > Security & Privacy > Privacy > ….
Not directly related: but I just did this for the MS Office Programs (Word, Excel, Powerpoint Outlook etc..).
While in contact with MS Support they advised me to delete everything and reinstall. Adding the programs was a lot easier and retained all my data.
