Xcode 7.0 beta / IOS9 / WatchOS 2 - no symbols for paired Apple Watch?

Question

I got this message within Xcode, any idea how to fix it?

Answer 1

From https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/3380:

Xcode failed to download the symbol files from http://adcdownload.apple.com/Developer_Tools/watchOS_13S5255d/Watch1_1_13S5255d.dmg. I was successful to launch my watchOS app by following steps.

1. Download the symbol file installer for 13S5255c from http://adcdownload.apple.com/Developer_Tools/watchOS_13S5255c/Watch1_1_13S5255c.dmg.
2. Create directory "~/Library/Developer/Xcode/watchOS DeviceSupport/2.0 (13S5255d)/Symbols"
3. Mount the DMG and open Watch1,1.pkg.
4. Change the destination directory to above directory. (DO NOT install to default location! OS X will be destroyed!)
5. Install symbol files.
6. Open project on Xcode 7 beta.
7. Disconnect and connect iPhone.

Answer 2

The solution that worked for me is based on the earlier post, but to simplify things I’ve followed the initial steps, changed the directory name to work with Beta 5 and zipped the relevant folders. So the simplified version for Beta 5 is:

1. Download the zip file from here to the target directory: ~/Users/[user]/Library/Developer/Xcode

2. Unzip the file. You should see a new folder named “WatchOS DeviceSupport” under your Xcode folder, with another folder named “2.0 (13S5325c)”.

3. Open project on Xcode 7 beta.

4. Disconnect and connect your iPhone.

That’s all – it worked for me, I hope it will work for you as well.

in case anyone is still struggling with this, i was able to solve by updating to the most recent version of xcode.

everything was working until watchos 2 beta 5 installed on my watch, then i got this error. updating to xcode 7 beta 5 allowed my watch to appropriately have the new symbols installed.
