“The run destination iOS Device is not valid for running the scheme”

Question

I\'ve been running my app on an iPhone 5 /iOS 6, but when I try to run it on an iPhone 4S / iOS6 I get \"The run destination iOS Device is not valid for running the scheme N

Answer 1

Switching to a different USB port and restarting Xcode solved the problem. Experienced this issue on iMac running Xcode 9.1 whenever I tried connecting any iOS device to one specific USB port. If your USB ports stopped working, check this.

• Open the Apple Menu > About this Mac > More Info > System Report > USB and check that the device appears in the USB Device Tree. If it is not here try another USB cable.
