I am trying to learn react native, and I'm running into an issue when trying to to install dependencies. I have installed CocoaPods and followed all steps via the documentation. I am unsure why I am getting this error. When running pod install and pod install --repo-update I am getting the following output:

tyler@Tylers-MacBook-Pro ios % pod install --repo-update

After some more googling, I found this solution to my problem.

https://github.com/facebook/react-native/issues/25561

Run sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode.app then reboot your machine. CD into iOS directory of your product and run pod install. It should build correctly!

for the sake of god i tried this one like sudo xcode-select --switch "/Applications/Xcode 13.4.1.app" to point the xcode i use and the d*mn thing still didn't work. i then rename my xcode from Xcode 13.4.1.app to Xcode.app and do sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode.app then it all works!

Actually, I got this error when I'm on a macOS Catalina, that was installed on unsupported Apple computer (Mac mini 5.1 - mid-2011)

If you’ve stumbled upon this post, it most likely means that you’re getting this error:

SDK “iphoneos” cannot be located

When trying to run a pod install or perform similar command-line tasks from a Mac terminal while working on an XCode project.

This is a typical scenario when you update a lot of stuff together – such as XCode and CocoaPods.

Luckily enough, the fix is very simple: open a new terminal window and type the following command:

sudo xcode-select --print-path

If XCode is installed, you should see a wrong installation path, such as /Library/Developer/ or something like that: it’s very likely that your XCode installation is located somewhere else – such as in the /Applications/ folder. If that’s so, you can fix your issue by typing the following command:

sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode.app

Step 1: Make sure your Command Line Tools are selected in the XCode. XCode > Preferences > Locations > Command Line Tools > Select the one that you want to use

Step 2: Execute the following command in your terminal sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode.app

The trick here is that, if your XCode app is named differently such as XCode 13.2.1, even if you specify it like this sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode\ 13.2.1.app it won't work and I think its because of the space in the name. Just rename you application itself to XCode13.2.1(basically remove any space in the name) and then execute sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode13.2.1.app

Step 3: pod install
