I am not able to boot the simulator, this is what I got:

enter image description here

I tried many ways to solve it:

  • Uninstalled and reinstalled Xcode 7.3 from dmg.
  • Uninstalled Xcode 7.3 and reinstalled Xcode 7.0 from dmg.
  • Removed simulators and added again.

But nothing is working in my case, totally frustrated. Can anyone please advice in this?

Thanks.

I had the same problem and got it working by this 3 simple steps :-

1-restart your mac and when the mac is about to start keep holding (Command + R)

2-open terminal from utilities and type this command "csrutil disable" and then restart

3- open the simulator now and check if its working if so do the same steps u did in 1,2 but use this command instead "csrutil enable"
