My iPhone no longer shows up in organizer - xcode4.5

I deleted the provisioning profile to fix this to no avail.
I connect and everything.
Itunes can detect my phone. I can't do the same. I wonder why.
This happens since I installed XCode 5 beta. I CAN access my iPhone from that Xcode 5 Beta.
Now I have uninstalled Xcode 5 Beta, upgrade my original Xcode to 5 and I still cannot see my iPhone.
My iPhone should show up in organizer when I plug it in right?

As Vision says
Use a legit Apple cable!
If you have installed iOS7 a lot of fake cables doesn't work anymore.

Where can I download the iOS 10 simulator runtime file?

I want to test my apps in the iOS 10 simulator, but I'm not sure where to get the .runtime file for iOS 10. I don't see a download for it under Components in Xcode 8. Where can I download the .runtime file for iOS 10 (if it exists)?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: I forgot to mention: As I was trying to fix another problem (before I asked this question), I ended up deleting all of my runtimes and redownloading them (except for iOS 10).
I ran into this issue earlier today. After installing Xcode - beta, my simulator was still only displaying iOS simulators 9.3 and below. What eventually ended up working for me was:
Killing the currently running simulator with cmd-Q
Control clicking (right click) on the Xcode - beta icon in my dock
Hovering over "Open Developer Tool"
Selecting Simulator from this menu
Once the simulator launched, I began to see iOS 10 in the Hardware -> Device drop down. Hope that helps.
Xcode > Open Developer Tool > Simulator
close And re-open Xcode again
All ios 10 simulator are already downloaded with xcode8 - beta it self. You can download additional simulators from preference -> Components.
And
You can get data for you app in those simulators at following path.
/Users/User_ACC_Name/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator
Ensure existing simulators are closed. Then open XCode 8 (beta):
Go to menu XCode -> Open Developer Tools -> Simulator.
This worked for me:
Go to App Store and Make Xcode Update 8.0
Open Xcode and it installs the components
Go to Menu "Window" > "Devices"
Add A New Device (Important one that supports iOS 10))
At the end the devices list is updated, and you can run the devices that can run iOS 10 in the simulator
Steps 1 to 5 Screenshots
The iOS 10 Beta Simulator is shipped inside of Xcode 8.0 Beta. You do not need to download anything extra. The primary reason for the large size of the Xcode download is for the three simulator runtimes that it contains.
OK, this has been open for long enough and Xcode 8/iOS 10 are out of beta, plus I solved this problem a week after this was asked, so I'll post my own answer. I ended up redownloading and reinstalling the entire Xcode 8 beta which includes the .runtime file in itself. Bit of an overkill, but I didn't have any other options at the time.
Nothing already mentioned worked for me. I was missing iOS 10.3 simulators in Xcode 8.3.3. What worked for me was to reset the simulators using fastlane snapshot tool:
sudo gem install snapshot
snapshot reset_simulators

Xcode 6.1 and iOS Simulator 8.1 very slow to run

I'm using Xcode 6.1 and iOS Simulator 8.1. It takes a long time to run the simple apps that I've written using the iOS Simulator. Build process was ok but then the iOS Simulator will show the black blank launch screen then the app screen for like 5 minutes before the app launch. Many times it shows error "Lost connection to iPhone 6(/5/4s)". Tried to re-start Xcode and iOS Simulator, and MacBook Pro multiple times already. Tried to reset "Content and Settings" in the iOS Stimulator, but doesn't help.
What could be the possible causes? Any advice/solution? Thank you.
I suggest that you boot up the device that you want to use prior to the Build&Run in Xcode. If you hit Build&Run in Xcode while the device is not booted, you will need to wait for the device to boot. This can take a long time depending on your I/O load (eg: if Spotlight is indexing at the same time you are trying to boot, or if your home directory is on a slow volume like a network mount).
Just open up iOS Simulator.app ahead of time and select the device you want to test on from the Hardware->Devices menu. Then it will be ready when you need it.
Make sure 'slow animations' is not selected under the Debug tab in the iOS Simulator. That fixed the issue for me.
Googled on this issue and some said it's a Xcode bug with the 6.1 beta, but I had the 6.1 release version installed alreadt. I even try the 6.2 beta, hoping Apple has a fix for this, but no luck, still the same.
So desperate that I decided to upgrade my 3 years old MacBook Pro RAM and harddisk to SSD. Problem solved with the upgrade! The iOS Simulator runs normally now.

Running iPhone 5 Simulator on Snow Leopard

I am running the iOS6 SDK on my mac running Xcode 4.2 on Snow Leopard using steps from this Stack Overflow post.
I'm now trying to get the iPhone 4" screen to work. I have been able to get iOS 6 to show up in the iOS simulator under the Hardware > Version menu. When I try to load an iOS 6 device, I get the error: "The simulated application quit" - "Click Relaunch to try again". It then gives me an option to switch to a different SDK. If I choose iOS6, it again crashes. If I choose iOS 5, it loads correctly.
I also don't have an iPhone 4" screen option under the Hardware > Device menu.
I have copied the iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneSimulator6.0.sdk folder from the Xcode Disk Image to my computer.
I'm not able to upgrade my computer past Snow Leopard.
So I need to be able to:
load iOS 6 in the iOS Simulator
load an iPhone 4" in the simulator
Problem is Xcode 4.5 on your mac.
The original post says how to run ios 5.1sdk on "Xcode 4.2 on Snow leopard".
Xcode 4.5 is not available on snowleopard.
Install Xcode 4.2 and follow the steps again.
Another idea is to use Virtual Box and run XCode in it. Of course, running OS X on virtual box is quite difficult and not entirely legal (although you do have a Mac, so it can be justified). You can follow this link if interested.
http://www.sysprobs.com/guide-mac-os-x-10-7-lion-on-virtualbox-with-windows-7-and-intel-pc
It's for windows 7, but you should be able to get it to work on OS X as well.
I VMware Fusion 5 (and maybe 4 also, I don't remember) allows Mac OS X Lion and Mountain Lion to run in a VM. So you could install VMware Fusion, and use it to run a virtualized instance of Mountain Lion. Since the hardware is virtualized, it shouldn't matter that your Mac doesn't support anything newer than Snow Leopard.
Performance will likely be poor, though - my experience is that you need at least 4 gigs of RAM for VMware Fusion to run smoothly. If your Mac is too old for Lion and Moutain Lion, it'll probably won't have that amount of RAM installed.
It's said that Xcode 4.2 is the last supported version on Snow Leopard. So no it won't work and you'll have to get Lion.
I found the answer on another StackOverflow post
You would have to be under Lion in this case with both Xcode 4.2 and
4.5 installed. There should be no problem with this.
Don't forget...
As stated in a Stack Overflow post
"I installed Xcode 4.2 on a Snow Leopard and when iOS SDK was published I imported the iOS 5.1 SDK" Look at another Stack Overflow post
Use the 2nd post link. It works perfectly, just copy "6.0" instead of "5.1".
Don't forget that you could just use an external iOS device that can run iOS6
You could always ask for support from developer.apple technical support
Delete your simulator and re-download

XCode4 update to iOS5 release

How do I update my snow leopard version of Xcode from iOS 4.3 to iOS 5.0? I got my device upgraded to iOS5, but now xcode nags at me saying I need to downgrade it to 4.3 or below...
I found this link on the apple dev center, however it tells me "access denied, contact adc..."
http://adcdownload.apple.com//Developer_Tools/xcode_4.2_with_ios_5_sdk/xcode_4.2_and_ios_5_sdk_for_snow_leopard.dmg
The link in the Mac App store only takes me to the Lion version of the xcode 4.2....
Update: It turns out you need to accept more pages of agreements on the iOS development portal before they will let you download anything. It is highlighted in yellow towards the top of the screen
No explanation behind the cause of the error, but here's one fix:
1) Go to http://developer.apple.com/downloads
2) Search for Xcode
Download Xcode 4.2 for Snow Leopard.

Installing iOS 5 for simulator

I've downloaded the iOS 5 beta and want to test my app, but since I don't want to install this on my iPhone, I'd like it to be only installed on the Simulator. Does anyone know how to do this? In the Xcode Organizer, the software image shows up, but I can't run the app in iOS 5.
You cannot install or update iOS software/firmware for iOS devices on a Mac because of the different computer architecture.
Download and install Xcode 4.2 with the beta iOS SDK, then you can test the app on the iOS Simulator.
You need to install newer version of xcode.
Be careful with Xcode 4.2 .... I believe it's only in preview mode.
You cannot upload apps with preview Xcode
!
1.Partition your MAC, obviously installing OS X on a partition other
than the one you use.
[ if you can't do it yourself, don't try it]
Put Test Xcode and dev stuff in one. The real deal in the other.
That way you can mess about with upcoming cool stuffs.
