Could not launch process launch failed: timed out

Question

I am trying to launch my app on device. It is launching successfully on the simulator.

• List item
• I use 7.1 SDK
• Xcode 5
• And the device is a 7.1 iPhone 4S

I have tried:

• Clean
• Clean Build Folder
• Deleting app
• Disconnecting/Reconnecting device
• Booting device
• restarting Xcode

What can I do to make it work?

Could it be something with Code Signing?

Currently i have it set to 'Dont Code Sign'

Answer 1

As all of the above answers didn't helped for me I'll publish my solution:

Deleting all the occurrences of xcuserdata folders in .xcodeproj and .xcworkspace and restarting Xcode fixed the problem. To delete it right click your_app_name.xcodeproj and/or your_app_name.xcworkspace in your app folder and select "Show Package Contents". I hope that help someone to save some time.

Answer 2

To run your app on a device, you will perform these tasks that follow:

1. Request a development certificate.

2. Add your device to the portal.

3. Code sign your app.

4. Launch your app on the device.

Answer 3

I literally restarted my iPad, that was connected for testing the app, and that resolved the issue.

Answer 4

I just had this issue. I had to open the app on device and tap Trust Computer. No need for me to reboot everything 20 times, yay.

Answer 5

I got the same problem and after looking at the answers here I found mine. The issue at hand was: my dev distribution certificate was gone from iOS Dev Center, so I just assume it had timed out. I didn't get a nice warning though, just the above error - installing worked but debugging didn't. So I had Xcode regenerate a new one for me.

Answer 6

Below two steps solved for me:

For xcode version: 7.2

• 1.Select any of your simulator to run ( just start your run, no need to load the app completely).
• 2.Stop it.
• 3.Then select your device and run.

This solved in my case.
