can't exit Xcode

once in every 5-10 times i run my iOS code with XCode- on the simulator this is what happens:

  1. the program doesn't run

  2. the stop button is press-able but when i press it it doesn't do anything

3.I can't exit Xcode! the only way to exit is by force quitting Xcode

I don't even know what printouts or code to share because it doesnt seem to do with the code at all. this happens after compiling successfully, the simulator is showing the splash screen (and not continuing to run the program) and the log shows:

GNU gdb 6.3.50-20050815 (Apple version gdb-1822) (Sun Aug  5 03:00:42 UTC 2012)

I'm using OS X version 10.8.2 and xcode version 4.5.2, but the problem also happened when i was running older versions of XCode and OS X.

Xcode and the Simulator are not the only processes that spawn when you run your application. In the activity monitor, you'll see a third process called "Simulator Bridge", which has always had a nasty reputation of sticking around as a zombie process. After you kill Xcode and the Simulator itself, kill the simulator bridge process and fire up Xcode again.
