I'm new in development for iOS. My problem was when I run my project, the simulator was with black screen and a message shows "Unable to boot the simulator". I'm working with Xcode version 7.3.1.

Change the tmp folder permission will solve the problem
Open terminal -> chmod 777 tmp

I got this issue today (Oct 25, 2018) while working on a computer with a Mojave 10.14.0 beta, which I believed has "expired".
Everything in the system worked well, except for the simulators. I couldn't launch any of them (iOS, tvOS...).
Upgrading the OS to 10.14 (final version) solved the issue.

In this case, launchd is crashing when trying to launch This could be as a result of deleting the /private/tmp folder. To resolve this go to terminal and use this command.
sudo mkdir /private/tmp
sudo chmod 1777 /private/tmp
