iPhone Simulator is version 4.0 (211.1)
I know, this is a weird question for S.O., but I figured if anyone has seen this, it would be someone here.
I have a MacBook Pro with a 22″ lcd attached. I run the 22″ as my “main” screen with the dock and I use the MBP’s display as a secondary.
I want the iPhone Simulator to run on the actual MBP’s screen, so the first time I ran it and it popped up on the 22″, I dragged it over to the MBP screen. But now, whenever I launch iPhone Simulator, while it does show up on the MBP screen, it’s half way off the screen and I have to drag it up. Here’s a screenshot: http://tinypic.com/r/2iw7m2t/4
I tried removing the simulator’s .plist, which put it back on my main screen as it should, but the same thing happens when I drag it back to where I want it.
I assume this is all due to running a 22″ at 1920×1080 and the MBP 13″ at 1280×800, but it doesn’t change the fact that it’s no bueno.
Any ideas?
I was having this same problem. I closed the simulator, ran rm -f ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iphonesimulator.plist restarted the simulator and moved it to the position that I wanted. Closed the simulator and the values of “NSWindow Frame iPhoneSimulatorWindow.0.0.500000” had changed.
