iOS Getting "no provisioned iPhone OS device is connected" error for simulator

[twelvevolt]

I just recently started back on working on developing iPhone apps. I downloaded Xcode 3.2.2, and I am having issues with both my apps & sample code from apple.com. When I try to build & run the app, I receive the following error:

Error Starting Executable
No provisioned iPhone OS device is connected

I have tried the various versions of the simulator iPhone OS all with the same result. I am not trying to build & run on a device - just the simulator. I have I have also completely removed Xcode and reinstalled.

I haven't been able to find any other things to try. Has any one else encountered this behavior?

Thanks in advance!

Is your target set to debug?

How did you fix the problem?

No. You may not like hearing this but, I had everything backed up everything thru time machine & reinstalled OS X & Xcode. Worked like a charm. Figured the 1 week invested in trying to figure out was more expensive than the 6 hours it took to redo the machine.

hahahahaha..

um, you could have just redesignated it from Device to Simulator on the main XCode window in a dropdown.

If you don't have that option, you just need to tweak one setting in your build options by right-clicking on the project and hitting "Get Info"...

Tried that, and was receiving the error message even with simulator option. Tried many other things including removing Xcode completely & reinstalling, different devices, etc. Spent a fair amount of time researching and trying different suggestions. Again, a week of dinking around was a week lost. Sucked, but no more gremlins.
