If I click "Continue" it still shows me the same dialog and "Crash" crashes Xcode.

Please tell me what to do. There is probably no help on the internet. I can't develop now. 😟

I suppose it damaged my latest try - installing OS X Lion Server preview, if there is an easy way of uninstalling it, please tell me.

Thank you!!!

Happens with 10.7 Release Version and after installing the necessary "Tools" (XCode 4.1 via App Store).

Can't develop, too.

This is not acceptable, it's no beta testing here - and without the possibility of developing, the developer licence is unusable. New tactic of making more money? Hard to believe after looking at the latest quarter figures.

I don't know if I can agree to you harsh words, but I am too experiencing the same problem.

I got it after downgrading from beta 3 to latest stable. Beta 3 has a lot of problem on Lion. Now I can't do anything.

Those words are born out of frustration, sorry. I expect some level of stability when upgrading.

Uninstalling all devtools and reinstalling XCode has fixed the problem.

Did you uninstall it using "sudo /Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=all" in the terminal, and reinstalled it from the appStore?

For me it kept crahing even after removing everything using "sudo /Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=all" and reinstalling xcode.

The thing that made everything work was to reinstall itunes.

I tried unistalling by sudo /Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=all, unfortunately didn't work. You say reinstall iTunes? Well I tried but I have a "newer" version, but I'll unistall and install and will see.

So the final solution for me was uninstalling Xcode by "sudo....", then deleting "Developer" folder, RESTART and Mac App Store Xcode download and install, RESTART.

(Apple site refers, when you uninstal Xcode you really should restart Mac)

Thats what I did in the end. Also, I used AppZapper to delete any "forgotten" files. First time after installing XCode again I had some problems archiving, it took 20-30 minutes for a 1.4mb app... but in case you have the same problem, just wait for it to finish.

Reinstalling iTunes didn't help me anything unfortunately.

Agreed, this was also the step that resolved it for me. It did not require an iTunes removal, just a fresh run of the installer for iTunes 10.4.

Worked for me as well:

* Download the latest iTunes installer (10.4)

* Run the installer

* I rebooted just to be sure.

I deleted using "sudo...". Rebooted. Reinstalled. Still not working. Wondering what iTunes might have to do with it. Will try that next.

I've been using Xcode for over a year and it has a tendency to crash for no obvious reasons.

Move the mouse. Crash.

Delete a line of text. Crash.

Edit some text. Crash.

Do nothing. Crash.

It's not one of Apple's better implementations. At first I submiited detailed crash reports but after the crashing continued for no obvious reasons, I stopped.

I've had the same problems on different Macs and differnet versions of Xcode.

I just restart and get on with my project.

Another item to note. If I sign in as a different user X-Code launches without crashing. Any thoughts?

Worked for me, downloaded latest iTunes (which was already installed) from http://apple.com/iTunes ran the installer, restarted my mac and Xcode now works like a charm.
