Xcode-beta can not be opened while it is being updated

tried @Rick's solution didn't work. I ended up restarting my machine which fixed it.


Open activity monitor (/Applications/Utilities/Activity Monitor.app), switch to the CPU tab and search for storedownloadd. If that process is present and you aren't downloading anything using the Mac App Store, you can kill it.


Please follow the steps below,

1. Open App Store app in you Mac
2. Select Updates tab
3. Look Xcode is in Pending section
4. Stop (Sometime start Update and then Stop)

You will be able to open the app now onwards.

Note: That is applicable not only for Xcode but also for any app which is not opening due to updating.

Faced the same issue and here is the solution to open Xcode.

Go to Application folder -> find Xcode -> Right click and select "Show Package Content" -> Go to Content -> MacOS -> Double click Xcode (Unix excecutable file).

It worked for me!
