I'm having some troubles with running/testing my App for the new iPhone.

When running simulator with this newer version of XCode the iPhone 4" is not visible (anymore) under hardware->device.

Did I disabled it or is my XCode broken somehow.

EDIT:

Somehow my Xcode was not running the latest Beta version when running my App via rightmouseclick XCode 4.5 (even though it was listed).

When running XCode via the install file (.dmg) of the developerportal I was able to run the iPhone 4" (iPhone 5) simulator.

Download and install Xcode 4.5 (or newer), open your project in it, run in iPhone 6.0 Simulator and then:
