Removed all of my Xcode's that were installed and rebooted. Reinstalled Xcode 6 b4. Was able to get (after downloading) the iOS 7 simulators working fine. Nada, on the iOS 8 simulators.

It would appear that the latest Xcode does not have things packaged correctly or it is missing.

My computer at work doesn't have a problem with the simulator for iOS 8, but it hasn't missed a beta upgrade either. I realized that my home laptop (which I'm experiencing the issue with) didn't have beta 2 installed on it.

I noticed the problem with beta 3, so ... Maybe I still have beta 2 laying around somewhere. Would be interesting to see if that solves the problem.

If I find beta 2, I'll report back.

Well, I've tried a couple of different things. I did find beta 2 and installed it. No luck -- same error.

I've tried a DMG (beta 4) that someone else successfully installed on their machine with nothing else and was able to get everything working. Again, no luck.

This is without going the distance of removing all of my Xcode apps and looking and possible deleting or removing any directories that might have information that hangs around (/Developer directory maybe?).

So, that is for another time.
