Xcode 6.0.1 - iOS Simulator Black Screen

I've seen lots of questions about this - however none of them are solving my issue.

The Setup is as follows

OSX Mavericks 10.9.5
Xcode 6.0.1
iOS Simulator 8.0 (550.1)

I've tried now with 5 different Xcode projects, that are working with another machine with identical setups, except this one isn't working.

Every time I launch the simulator, whether or not it's with an App running, or standalone I get the same.

When I run from Xcode I get this message ->

An error was encountered while running (Domain = com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimError, Code = 146)

The things I've tried are:

  • Reset all Content and Settings (when I click and confirm this - nothing happens at all)
  • Removed all devices from the simulators, and re-created them
  • Made sure everything is up to date
  • Cleaned all projects, SEVERAL times
  • Restarted machine inbetween doing everything under the sun
  • Deleted Derived Data

This has been happening for 3 days now.

Suggestions please!

How do I enable simulator in Xcode?

Open Xcode and click Menu > Xcode > Preferences > Select Components, and then choose the simulator version you want to download. When a simulator is opened from AppStudio, AppStudio Player automatically installs (if necessary) and opens in it.

How do I start iPhone simulator in Xcode?

The basic way to open a list of simulators is to use Xcode -> Window -> Devices and Simulators. Here you can create and manage all available simulators. But you cannot run them directly. You need to build your application on the simulator, and then you can run it.

Can you run iOS simulator without Xcode?

Well, that's not entirely true, you can actually still directly launch iOS Simulator without opening Xcode first by creating an alias. Note that modern versions of Xcode and OS X call the iOS Simulator simply “Simulator”, where you go will depend on which version of OS X the Mac is running.

This probably isn't the "official" answer, but my solution to solve this was literally bin xcode, empty trash, then reinstall from the App store.
