Iphone 3GS not detected by Xcode

I'm not sure if this is a problem with my phone or my computer. My phone is not being detected by Xcode and does not appear in the organizer. When I plug it in iPhoto opens automagically and sees the phone, but nothing appears in Xcode.
It worked just fine a few days ago, my provisioning profile was set up and I was happily testing apps on the device. I have not changed or updated Xcode since, the phone simply stopped appearing.
I've tried the following (in increasing order of desperation):
Restart Iphone;
Restart Xcode;
Restart computer and phone;
Open Xcode in 32-bit mode;
Delete existing provisioning profile in Xcode;
Restore Iphone from Itunes (on another computer than the one i'm using for development);
Switch USB ports;
Confirm I'm using the original Apple USB cord;
Google furiously for answers;
Things I haven't yet tried:
Restore Iphone without restoring backup afterwards (will probably try next, but would be a hassle.);
Borrow another Iphone to test on this computer;
Give up & get an Android phone;
I'm using an Iphone 3GS running iOS 4.0.2, Xcode 3.2.3, on OSX 10.6.3.
Any help or insight would be much appreciated,
Owen

This seems to be a software issue.
Removing & reinstalling Xcode solved it.
Frustrating, but solvable.

  • IPhone 3Gs Not Detecting Carriers

    HI All,
    My iPhone 3Gs is not detecting any carriers.  I have just upgraded to ios 5.
    I have tried my SIM in another phone and it is working OK.  The phone was unlokced by O2 and I have tried an O2 SIM in it which also does not work.
    When I manually search for carriers then none are found.
    I'm beginning to think this is a hardware fault.
    Any ideas?

    Cheers for the reply.
    I left the phone overnight and then performed a normal restore.  The phone worked perfectly for a day, then got stuck on the apple symbol.  Since then I have not been able to restore at all.  When I try a restore it gets to the end of the process then I get the following error message:
    An unknown error has occurred (-1).
    I'm starting to face up to this being a hardware issue, but would welcome any feedback or potential things I can try to recover this phone.
    Cheers again.

  • Why is my iphone 3gs not detecting my sim card

    99% your iPhone is hacked/jailbroken, now you need the SIM from the carrier the iPhone was locked to.

  • Iphone 3GS cannot detect SIM card

    Hi My iphone 3GS cannot detect the SIM card.
    The phone shows full bar for service provider but 3G unable. It cannot receive incoming calls and make outgoing calls.

    I am assuming you updated to version 5.1.1, not 5.0.1 since no legitimate version of 5.0.1 is available.
    Where is this iPhone from and what means did you use to unlock it?

    Doublechecking. Have you also tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:

    iphone 3gs not abe to restored ...error unknown error occurred (2003)

    Hey caprameg,
    If you are having issues restoring your iPhone, take a look at the resource below for some initial troubleshooting steps.
    Resolve iOS update and restore errors in iTunes - Apple Support
    https://support.apple.com/en-lb/HT201210
    Get help with iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support
    https://support.apple.com/en-lb/TS3694
    To narrow down the issue, you can try different equipment:
    Use the USB cable that came with your device, or a different Apple USB cable. 
    Plug your cable into a different USB port directly on your computer. Don't plug it into your keyboard.
    Try a different computer.
    Solve other issues with the USB connection, then with your security software.
    Check that your security software and settings aren't blocking your device from communicating with the Apple update server.
    Then try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good.
    Make sure that your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers.
    If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
    I hope this information helps ....

    Well it sounds like it is. Thus, we cannot help you on these forums. You'll need to search for Google on how to unjailbreak - and it's a good idea to keep it that way.
