Xcode “Device Locked” When iPhone is unlocked

Question

When I tried to build and run, Xcode said my device was locked. I looked at my iPhone, and it\'s not locked at all. How do I fix this?

Answer 1

This happens at times while using Xcode 9.

There are multiple solution to this as mentioned below :

Note : Make sure that your device is not locked when Xcode is trying to install app.

Solution 1 :

i. Disconnect device and connect again

Solution 2 :

i. Restart you device

Solution 3 :

i. Disconnect device

ii. Quit Xcode (Shortcut key : cmd + Q)

iii. Open your project

iv. Clean project (Shortcut key : cmd + shift + K)

v. Now connect device

vi. Run your project

For me Solution 3 worked perfectly

Answer 2

I had to re-add device to xcode.

In XCode open Devices and Simulators (CMD+Shift+2), in left list press + button and re-add the same device.

Answer 3

All the previous solutions didn't work.

Finlay, changing the iPhone's cable solved the problem.

The fastest way for now i found is:

1) Go to Window -> devices (changed the hotkey in xcode to CMD+P for me)
2) Press unpair on the device.
3) Press trust in iPhone.
4) Build again or Run without building (Ctrl+CMD+R)

Answer 5

A simple solution:

1. First, unplug your device.

2. Now, unlock your device and plug it in again. Be sure that the device is unlocked.

3. Now run the Xcode project by selecting the device as target.

Answer 6

I have a very simple solution which worked for me instantly. Takes some 10 sec to do:

1) Go to Window -> Devices & Simulators and untick Show as run destination

2) Unplug the cable and plug it back in.

3) Run the project.

This should be solving your problem!
