My iOS device not appearing in xcode device list, showing in organizer

I m having xcode 4.5,

I have connected my iTouch(registered in developer program) to Mac Machine. It is appearing in Organizer's Device list. But, it is not appearing in xcode's device list(where simulators are) in one of my project. It is also shown when i open my other proejects.

So, What may be the problem in my this project, in which device is not appearing. Is any settings should be changed??

In my case it was due to the port blocked by IT team in my organisation.

For me, the solution was to disconnect ExpressVPN (not sure why this would impact my device showing up)

Reboot the Mac

The first thing you should try is to Reboot your Mac, solves most of the hardware problems!! :D

None of the answers above helped me. But what helped me was opening the Devices & Simulators window in Xcode, which then showed me my iPhone and started downloading symbols:

I was able to solve it by going into Settings > Developer > Clear Trusted Computers then unplugging and plugging in my iPhone and clicking Trust in the alert.

I’m using a MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2019, Two Thunderbolt 3 ports) and my iPhone was connected through a USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter. The iPhone was no longer shown as a connected device. Tried connecting the iPhone directly to the MacBook without the Adapter and now it IS a connected device. I’m going to consider using a wireless connection for development.

Go to organiser, select your device, click on remove button at bottom of organiser screen, unplug your device and connect it once again. That's it. your device should be appear in xcode.

  1. Restart XCode
  2. Try Changing the USB Port.
  3. Clean Project. Shift + command + K.
  4. Clear Derive Data.

I tried everything and then found that my device was identified on a different Mac but not mine. Quit and Reopen XCode resolved it.

My case, I was trying to run a sample app I just downloaded and didn't knew it was iPad only. And I had plugged-in an iPhone. :)

Got this problem too. I plug my phone to Apple Cinema Display. Turns out I forgot to plug in the display's USB cable to my MacBook Air, so only power goes to my device but no data transmission (/me facepalm big time).

You might need to "trust" the computer - a device will not show up in the organizer if the computer is not trusted.

Restart the iPad while it is connected to the computer. When it restarts, it will ask if you want to "Trust" the computer or not. Do so, then the device will show up in the Xcode Organizer.

Go to organiser and click your device in the left panel. On the right, see if it is registered for development or not. If not, click "Use for development". Hope it helps !!

The deployment target for your project is probably too high (e.g. iOS 7 if you are using Xcode 5 DP). Change it to a minimum version compatible with your device and try again.
