xcode won't run.

While moving HD icon I placed it on top of or near the xcode icon on desktop. now xcode won't run. All hardware tested fine at apple and we reinstalled operating system. also HD icon removed from desk. Activity monitor %150 from xcode. Xcode removed and reinstalled twice. Girl at Genius bar stumped too.

Thanks xnav, I'm not able to open xcode to start a new file or project, if I'm understanding that's where to enter the new user ID? The best I get is a no editor when I open xcode if the black spinning icon ever stops. And if I try to click anything in the tool bar I only get the color spinning icon.

Try removing everything from login items in the affected account, then rebooting the mac.


Go to


 > System Preferences > Users & Groups | Login items


Make a note of what's in the list, then highlight them all and hit the - minus button under the list.


Restart the mac and test Xcode.


If that solves the problem, you can add things back to the list one at a time, restarting after each one and testing Xcode again till you isolate the troublemaker (or you can just leave the list empty; keeps your start up times fast and clean).
