After updating to Xcode 5, the iOS simulator doesn't connect - not in Safari or Maps. It throws a "cache access denied" message. Couldn't find anything online that solves it. I'm stumped. Any ideas?

I just had the same problem in iOS Simulator Version 8.1 and this fixed it!

From the menu bar-> iOS Simulator-> Reset Content and Settings...

The Avast Mac Security app is the culprit here. Launch Avast, go into Preferences > Shield, and disable Web Shield. Then restart the simulator and it will work.

I had the same problem. I solved it restarting iOS Simulator not reseting content and settings.

    While not a great answer, it does provide an answer to a problem the poster considered the same issue. Restarting, rebooting, or power cycling to resolve a problem is a valid solution to multiple problems. – Makyen Feb 27 '15 at 23:24
