App name does not exist in Instruments dSYM Locations

Question

I'm trying to re-symbolize my project in instruments since it's not showing functions name under TimeProfiler. But I'm not able to find my App under the dSYM Locations.

I don't know why, but for some reason the profiling schema under xcode had 'release' config instead of 'debug'!! changing that back to debug solved the problem.

Unfortunately, this is not the problem in my case. – Berik Dec 18 '12 at 09:56
@BVisschers Did you check your debug config? – Mojtaba Feb 01 '13 at 19:18
I'm sure I checked it. But can not confirm it anymore unfortunately. – Berik Feb 06 '13 at 10:30

This is a bug with spotlight and Lion. Unfortunately "mdimport ." command does not work in all situations ( this command should tell where to look for the dsym files, if you were in the dsym folder it must work)

So i end up locating manually in instruments the files under: /Users/YOUR_USER_HERE/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/YOUR_APP_HERE/Build/Products and then select the appropriate folder and DSym files.

To be able to select Library folder you need to write this command: chflags nohidden ~/Library/
