When i run the xcode4.5 build of my project on ios7 then keyboard appearing is not ios native keyboard which is native to ios7 but it is showing the previous greyish keyboard but alertview is working fine.
I can move to xcode 5 but there is many UI issue when i switch to xcode 5.
Reset of things are working fine with xcode 4.5
You need to switch to Xcode 5 for the keyboard. There is not other way I know of. Also the users will like your app more if it has the iOS 7 features.
As already mentioned, you need to move to Xcode 5. As you've noticed, the alertViews (and actionSheets) will be iOS-7-ified automatically, though.

I recently got the M1 MacBook and it automatically updates you to Xcode 12 and I can't use any simulators below iOS 14.Is there a way around this?
Note: Yes I have downloaded the older simulators
I was able to solve the different iOS version problems on the M1. For iOS 14 and up, go to Excluded Architectures in Build Settings and add arm64. For lower iOS versions just clean and build and it should work. Only problem I still run into is my Quick/Nimble framework crashing through the lower iOS versions.
Try clicking on your simulator icon to the right of Run button. At the bottom of popped up list you'll find Download Simulators. Go there and pick the one you want.
I have an app released on the app store and I am still working on my iOS 7 update. How will the upgrade to iOS 7 affect the version of my app that is already out there? Will the users who have upgraded still be able to use the existing version?
If your app was built with Xcode 4 and the iOS 6 SDK, it will look the same on iOS 7, except for UIAlertViews and UIActionSheets.
If you make an update to your app with Xcode 5 and the iOS 7 SDK, all UI elements will be updated.
Apple hasn't said how much longer you can submit apps using Xcode 4, but it won't be forever.
If your existing app uses any native controls and ui, it will change in the upgraded iOS. So if you have a navigation bar translucent in your current app, it will show up as the iOS 7 navigation bar translucent. If you have Custom buttons, they will stay unchanged. They will still be there.
So my answer is: Depends.
If you have all the native controls, it will be changed to iOS 7 elements.
If you have all the custom controls (custom buttons, backgrounds etc.), it will not be effected.
Try to look into iOS 7 transition guide once its available.
If you mean how will the existing version of your app work on iOS 7, then, the simple answer is: try it!
My understanding of iOS 7 was that when it was running on a given device that older applications (complied for iOS 6) that use standard UIControls (UITableView, UINavigationController, etc) would automagically have the iOS 7 look.
I have an app which utilizes a UITabBarController, UINavigationController, a UITableView and some UIButtons, however none of the controls in my app have the iOS 7 look or feel.
My navigation controllers are not translucent or blurred and my back buttons are not words they are still arrow encapsulated.
Am I missing something?
Thanks for your input,

If you app is compiled for iOS SDK version 6, you'll have the iOS6 components on your app, even if your phone is upgraded to iOS7.
To see the new components in your app you'll have to compile it using iOS SDK version 7, fix the warnings/errors you will find to make it work, and submit it.
i can run my app on my 6.1 iOS but can't with 5.1
i have the iOS Deployment Target set to 5.1 on both Project and Target
when i run the simulation for 5.1 it works fine but when i try it on my iPhone it crash's
i committed out all my code thinking that was the problem but the same thing keeps happening
XIB and auto-layout is not enabled
The iPhone simulation works with no errors
I tried to create a new project and have only a label and i still get the same out come
can some one send a link to a single view project that works with 5.1, the program could be blank i just want to compare to mine to see what is different/ wrong.
Sounds like you might be trying to use an API that is specific to iOS6 (UICollectionView or something similar).
You need to plug the device in and run it and see what the console indicates is the problem.
You have Auto Layout turned on for ViewController.xib. There are two ways to work around this. Either disable Auto Layout on that xib:
1) Xcode 4.3 not presenting Autoresizing panel in Size Inspector
Or use one of many methods to enable auto layout while remaining backwards compatible:
2) Enabling auto layout in iOS 6 while remaining backwards compatible with iOS 5
I made an app (already approved in the app store) with xcode 4 and it runs.
Now I would like to modify it for an update. My app has 2 localize (English and Italian) and before I modified it, I removed the second localize. My app is a tab bar app with 3 buttons.
My problem is that I added a new button to the tab bar in the mainWindow (everything is correct also name and nib) but it doesn't appear when I run it on my iphone nor on the simulator (iphone or ipad 3.2, 4.0 or 4.2). It works only on the 4.3 simulator (my iphone is 4.3.3).
If I remove the mainWindow (both), then it works on the iphone and 3.2, 4.0, 4.3 simulator as before I modified it.
What can i do?
Thanks!
When in doubt, try a full clean and rebuild. I've found xCode likes to hold onto old files if they're (mistakenly) marked as unmodified, doing a full clean and rebuild usually fixes this problem
Like #Dan F says, clean and rebuild is a must. Also I've found that putting out releases won't work unless you increase the app version number. If it's currently at 1.0 try changing it to 1.1 (or however you want to version your app) and see if that fixes it.
Otherwise you'll want to play around with your build settings and make sure the versions you're building for are correct. Just a few thoughts...
