Can we install multiple simulator versions at same time? - ios-simulator

I have currently switched to Xcode 4.5.1(iOS 6 SDK). My doubt is, whether at the same time can we install multiple simulator versions to test our app?

Open up Xcode Preferences (Xcode->Preferences), then click on Downloads. You should be able to download previous versions of the simulator from there.
You can then choose which one to use by using the dropdown menus near the top left next to the "Run" and "Stop" buttons.

How do I find my app when I use Zombies with an iOS Xcode project?

I am trying to use Zombies with my Xcode iOS project. When I click on the red button, I select the simulator I'm using, but then it takes me into what looks like is my mac folders directory. I wonder if I'm supposed to find the "Simulator" app, if there is such a thing. I found in the Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Runtimes/ three items that say "iOS ..simruntime, but there is not one that represents the iOS version my Simulator is running.
I'm not sure I'm even on the right track. I think I was able to get right as far as clicking the red button while my project is running in simulator. What should I do once I do that and the window appears to select an "app"?

How to apply themes on Telegram on a Mac?

These are the steps I am following -
Activating theme
In Telegram Desktop, go to setting and under the Chat background section click on Choose from file.
Select the colors.tdesktop-theme file you just downloaded.
Click Keep Changes to apply the theme.
It doesn't show the 2nd step. The file is de-selected from the Choose from file popup.
My version is 5.2.2 (170992) Stable.

However that theme is made for Telegram Desktop, a cross-platform app for Windows, Linux and macOS (yes, macOS has 2 official clients, you can read about their differences here)

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 8 Simulator crash

I recently downloaded the Xcode 8 beta. When I try to open the simulator, it gets stuck on the black Apple screen and I get a crash message for "SpringBoard".
Any ideas? I'm happy to edit if I left out anything.
Thanks in advance!
This is a known issue that is mentioned in the release notes and is related to issues in the download and install process. If you don't follow the installation instructions exactly, you can trip over this issue.
The workaround is rather straight forward:
Using Finder, copy (DON'T MOVE) Xcode-beta.app from /Applications to ~/Desktop
Delete /Applications/Xcode-beta.app
Move Xcode-beta.app from Desktop back to /Applications
I had a similar problem which, with a bit of googling, I managed to solve as it happened with the Xcode 6 Betas too. First of all, make sure that your Xcode-Beta.app is in the Application folder of your computer. Then go Xcode -> Preferences -> Locations. In "Command Line Tools" you will probably find that you have Xcode 7 selected. This is a problem that occurs with having 2 Xcode versions installed. Change it to Xcode 8.
After this, the simulators were still broken for me, so I went to Xcode -> Window -> Devices and delete all of the simulators. Then try a full reboot of your computer. Reopen the devices page and add in the simulators that you would like, and then right click on the Xcode app in your dock, and go "Open Developer Tool -> Simulator". Check that it now boots correctly. If its working so far, then you should be good to run your application. Otherwise try yet another reboot, just to make sure Xcode is refreshed.
Hopefully this solves your problem like it did mine, let me know if not.
SpringBoard failed to launch application with error: 0
If you get above issue make your simulator active window and follow step showed below in picture..
Note : It will delete all app from simulator..

Installing subclipse on Aptana Studio 3 fails

I'm trying to install subclipse 1.6.x onto Aptana Studio 3 (build 3.0.7.201112151935). It isn't working cause once I've clicked that I accept the licence agreements the finish button doesn't light up.
I've tried rolling back the configuration history, closing and reopening and installing 1.8.x. 1.8.x worked once, but isn't compatible with my SVN repo so that's no use.
Any guesses/solutions?
Thanks in advance

There is a bug in Eclipse where the Finish button does not show up. It was fixed, but maybe Aptana is not using the latest version. I seem to recall you could click Back and then Next and the button would enable.
Here are some Eclipse bugs on this:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=136907
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=149300
For me I found that there were sub-packages which couldn't be installed.
Bad Components:
Mylyn
Revision graph
These were identified as bad on the sub-components selection screen, however, when this is done, and the licenses are accepted, the "Finish" button does not get highlighted.
I Found that if you remove this bad components on the initial "Available Software" screen (and not on the sub-componets selection screen) and continue, that you the "Finish" button gets highlighted and you can proceed with installation.
