I had previously installed XCode 7.3 and updated it to 8.1 through the AppStore. When the project opened(XCode 8.1, Swift 3.0, Mac OS X El Capitan 10.11.6) I'm trying to open any file(.swift/.xib/.storyboard/.plist/.coredata etc.) the XCode just crashes.

Here is the my Crash Log of XCode 8.1: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/339bffc7b67100ae5e82012393cb00bd

  • are you using version control for project? – Ronak Chaniyara Nov 05 '16 at 08:27
  • Clear the derived data folder(~/Library/Developer/Xcode), and also the XCUserData from your Project. kindly make sure you quit all Xcode and then try these steps.I had faced similar issue and these steps did worked for me. – chitnisprasanna Nov 05 '16 at 10:40
  • If nothing else works you can try deleting `~/Library/Caches/com.apple.dt.Xcode` (when Xcode is quit) it resolves many issues *but* you also lose many preferences that you'll have to set again manually, so use it as a last resort. – Eric Aya Nov 05 '16 at 13:28

Try below steps, it may solve problem:

  • Open a Finder window and navigate to your project
  • Right-click on the .xcodeproj file (it’s a package actually)
  • Select Show Package Contents
  • New window appears
  • Delete a folder called xcuserdata

Also, Clear the derived data folder.

    For me, Xcode 8.1 started crashing on opening a particular project, this worked great (cleaning derived data in my case was not necessary). – paulvs Dec 07 '16 at 15:28

In the Utilities view, put "Top Bar" and "Status Bar" entries to "None". Temporary fix from Apple.
