I have installed Ionic and have successfully got the Android environment working perfect, however I am having issues when trying to emulate my app within the iOS Simulator.
I use the following command to emulate iOS and this opens up the iOS Simulator in iPhone 6 mode
sudo ionic emulate ios
This opens up the simulator and in the terminal does the build and compiling as expected and generates a lot of output in my terminal - after a while I can see my iOS Simulator but nothing else appears (just the Safari icon) and I have the following output in my terminal window.
** BUILD SUCCEEDED **
No target specified for emulator. Deploying to iPhone-6 simulator

My setup is as follows :
Your system information:
OS: Mac OS X Yosemite
Node Version: v0.12.2
Cordova CLI: 5.0.0
Ionic CLI Version: 1.3.22
Xcode version: Xcode 6.3.2 Build version 6D2102
ios-sim version: 3.1.1
ios-deploy version: 1.5.0
I have setup my Android environment on the same system and this works perfectly fine, I just cannot understand why I can’t get the iOS Simulator to run any apps.
I have tried updating my libraries, using the latest verions of Ionic/Cordova, downgraded to earlier versions, set permissions on folders, run the commands using sudo, removed and re-added platform, run the reset Contents & settings in the simulator, not to mention run the npm cache clean command and I always get the same problem above - Can anyone suggest anything else?
