XCode 5 Cannot run on selected device

Question

Cocos2d-x v3 beta, XCode 5.0.2 on 10.9

I have been running V3 Alpha 0 and things are fine.

I downloaded V3 Beta.

I used create_project.py to create a new application

If I try and run this application it works in the simulator

I import all of my source and resources. My app compiles and I get "XCode 5 cannot run on selected device " I have gotten this before in the past and always was solvable.

Here is what I have tried.

1. Build -> Clean
2. Removed Derived Data.
3. Reset all iOS Simulators.
4. Opened cocos2d_libs and changed all 'ios' to Deployment Target = iso7 and rebuilt everything.
5. using LLVm 5 and this is set

Still no luck.

Answer 1

Usually you get this error when

• the selected device is not set up for development
• the selected device does not support or does not run the targeted iOS version

In your case I suspect the device doesn't run iOS 7. Upgrade the device OS if possible, or select an earlier iOS deployment target.
