Answer 1

I had the same problem and it drove me nuts. I finally figured it out.

Make sure that "/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator" is owned by your user id and that it is also writable by you. All the subfolders should also be owned and be writable by you.

Once I changed ownership of "/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator" to me everything worked.
