Won't Copy To Device

Here is a recent YouTube series that seems to have relevant parts:

Again you don’t have to watch the whole series.  Just the bits where he make the first app, then the video where he tests on device.

Thank you

In Xcode’s Device & Simulator’s window, I click on the small + button below the list of installed development apps. You may not have any listed. That opens a file picker where I go click on my .app bundle that I want to install to the device.  There is a log window that’s part of the Device & Simulator screen where you can watch for messages from the device.

The log has a lot of noise in it, so it’s hard to pick out the errors, but that’s a starting point.

Just out of curiosity, can you build and install the HelloWorld sample app out of /Applications/Corona/SampleCode/GettingStarted/HelloWorld?

This is the log window Rob is talking about.
 
Three screenshots to help you find the log:

I figured it out. Corona was not able to copy to the device. However, after I uninstalled and reinstalled Xcode, Xcode was able to install the app.

I’m not clear.  Are you able to build and install from Corona now?

So, Corona could build the app, but it couldn’t install the app. I had to uninstall and reinstall Xcode, and then Corona still didn’t work, but the Xcode Devices and Simulator tab could download it to the device.

That is weird.   Sounds like something in your environment is borked.

However, I’m glad you can still get the app to your device for testing via xCode.

Thinking aloud:

“There must be some kind of log error when Corona tries to copy the app to the device.  I wonder if it more informative now.”

Has that message changed since your first post?

I will post the logs later today.

The logs and error message are the same as the one in the very first post. Not, the -1=FFFFF. I got it all cleared up, though, and I should be fine in the future. Thank you!
