Answer 1

There is also a case that your error would happen.

If an app with same Bundle Identifier is launched at background ( probably an App Store version ), Xcode debugger will not know which App it should attach to. To solve it, remove/uninstall the App Store version, and click Run in Xcode again.

The same story can apply if you once build the app with a bundle id then you changed the project bundle id and still kept both app versions. make sure you remove the old one.
