Xcode 5.1 and Simulator In Use Error

I've noticed that since upgrading to Xcode 5.1, the "Simulator In Use" error pops up randomly when trying to build/run. Sometimes nothing happens, and other times I get the error.

Even if there are no apps running, or the simulator is not running at all, I still encounter the error, which persists until I restart Xcode.

How can I fix this?

Quitting the xCode and restarting solves the problem but it has become, at least with me, perpetual. I have to quit and restart again so many times already. There's got to be a fix for this.

Fix this issue using below approach :

  1. Quit the simulator and Xcode as well.

OR

  1. Reset the content of Simulator. Goto to "iOS Simulator" menu -> "Reset contents and Settings.."

The upgrading Mac OS version from 10.8.5 to 10.9.2 fixed this issue for me.

When Ever you get an error like "Simulator In Use" Just follow the following steps.

1 ) Just remove derived data for the particular application. ( or all the derived data for not needed).
2 ) Delete Derived data also from trash folder if any.
3 ) Clean Your Project.
4 ) Build and run the Project.
