Which (exact) versions of MonoTouch and MonoDevelop do you have installed? Also you can enable verbose output by adding "-v -v -v" to the additional mtouch arguments, and information about any connection failures should be printed to the application output. – Rolf Bjarne Kvinge
Monodevelop version is 2.8.6.5 instead MonoTouch version 5.2.5 (Evaluation). There isn't no verbose output when i'm trying to simulate my simple application (HelloWorld) on IphoneSimulator (version 5) after setup additional arguments -v-v-v. Only output is Starting iOS simulator 5.0 Launching application now situation is that: simulator starting up but my application doesn't start and it doesn't installed on simulator. MonoDevelop shows "waiting for debugger to connect..." but doesn't happens help me – HouseDoctorized
What's the exact message from the simulator when sometime, the simulator ask me the applicaton to load... happens ? Could it be asking your to switch to another version of iOS ? (e.g. with a Switch... button) – poupou
It might be an issue with Xcode, can you try installing the latest Xcode on your system (Xcode 4.3.1)? – Rolf Bjarne Kvinge
I had the same problem on my mac mini (mid 2011) with 2gb of ram. Now I have 5gb and all works just fine. – olexa.le

Try to restart MonoDevelop. Then reset IOS Simulator IOS Simulator >> Reset Content and Settings... and then restart your IOS Simulator.
