xcode7 not showing simulator iOS 9.0 destination options

Installed the Xcode 7 beta. Can't run any code because Xcode only seems to allow me to choose "iOS Device" destination and none of the sim devices I would normally expect. The project is set to iOS 9.0 target and Universal. And it's a basic, new project.

Here's what I tried:

  1. Changing the target to iOS 8.0, then I see sim devices. But I want to run iOS 9.0
  2. Xcode Menu > Preferences > Downloads > only see iOS 8.3, 8.2 downloadable... don't see mention of iOS 9.0
  3. Xcode Menu > Open Developer Tools. See option for iOS Simulator and iOS Simulator (Watch). If I open iOS Simulator (not the watch), it opens up iOS Simulator 9.0 but running a watch
  4. So looks like the iOS 9 simulator is installed but only for the watch. Odd.
  5. Xcode Menu > Preferences > Locations > switched Command Line Tools to Xcode 7.0

Found Solution, Go to ~/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator and delete "devices" folder, And restart Xcode, Now you can see all simulators.

if your project deployment target is set to above 9.0, then you won't be able to see the list of simulators. You need to change the Xcode project deployment target to 8.0.

OK found it... go to window > devices, hit "+" there and add an iOS 9.0 simulator. Weird... don't remember ever having to do this before (the simulators for all the iOS version / physical device types) just were there automatically.
