Xcode stops autocompleting, UIKit classes not available

The topic has raised several times within the last weeks. Till now I haven't found a proper solution. Is it just a momentary Xcode bug or is there more behind it?

Scenario:

In one of my projects autocompletion has stopped working when I last opened it. Other projects are not affected. It looks kind of reasonable that once this problem is around, I also can't cmd+click the different classes imported by UIKit anymore like UIViewController or protocols like UITableViewDataSource within this particular project. An error pops up "Symbol Not Found". So in a way, even though it is working fine when running the app, it is just not available from inside the files.

Restarting Xcode, deleting derived data etc. hasn't brought me any further so far.

Any ideas? Or - like mentioned - really nothing else than just a bug?

Setting active scheme works for me. You have to select proper device corresponding to your installed components. XCode 6.1 has iOS8 primary, so you have to select iPhone6 or Resizable iPhone, if you select iPhone5 it couldn't find it. (project name>device) on the right of the 'Stop running' button

I don't know which part exactly was the key issue but

  • Installing Xcode 6.1
  • Downloading iOS 8 libraries & Xcode 6 libraries within Preferences

solved the problem.
