I have XCODE 4.6.3 installed but couldn't launch iPhone apps on iPhone 6.1 simulator.
It crashed every time I'm trying to debug with phrase "The simulated application quit."
I checked installed simulators and there are all up to 6.0 (4.3, 5.0, 5.1, 6.0). There is no 6.1 installed and I don't know how to install it and why it wasn't installed with XCODE 4.6.3
Thanks for any suggestions!
Alex
I just resolved the issue.
Go to the "~/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator" folder and delete 6.1 subfolder with corrupted simulator state.
Hope it'll help someone.

The OS version of my phone is 7.0.2 (11A501). I am using XCode 4.6.3. The IDE Xcode is not detecting my iPhone. When i go to organizer it tells me the following
The version of iOS on “Joe iPhone” is not supported by this
installation of the iOS SDK. Please restore the device to a version of
the OS listed below, or update to the latest version of the iOS SDK;
which is available here.
However, i have read in various forums that if i download xCode 5 i will not be able to build for ios 5 or 6 applications. What should i do ? Help/
It sometimes suffices to copy the device support files from a newer Xcode version to an older one. Try copying
Xcode5.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/7.0 (11A465)
to your Xcode 4 installation, but name it "7.0.2 (11A501)"
There is a neat trick to install the app on and iOS 7 device with Xcode 4.6
First download from the developer center Xcode 5 and install it manually in a separate folder in your Applications folder (I did add it in an Xcode foler, inside Applications).
So now you have both Xcode 4.6 and Xcode 5 on your Mac.
Now, run your code on Xcode 5 and install it on your phone (press the debug button on your iOS device). Once this is done, you can quit Xcode 5, open Xcode 4.6 and it will be able to debug the app on your iOS7 device just fine!
You will be able to run iOS 6 apps easily from xCode 5 - no problem.
Updating xCode is only way to work with iOS 7 devices - you have no choice.
Yes, you have to update your xcode, or create an IPA and install it on your device with iOS 7.0.2 by iTunes.
First of all, definitely you have to install XCode5.
Initially you can build application only against IOS7, but you can manually add IOS6 SDK.
XCode SDK's are placed on this location:
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/
You can copy IOS6 SDK from this location of XCode4.6 and paste it into same location in XCode5.
This way you can choose will you build your application against IOS6 or IOS7.
Run your code in Xcode5 the again run in Xcode4.6 will solve problem.
if you want to debug your Apps in xcode with ios 7 then, Updating xCode to version xcode 5 is only way to work with new ios (ios 7.0.2) and xcode 5 requirement is MAC os 10.8.4 , you have to update your OS ,if you right now using older version of operating system
Thanks
I am actually trying to run my application in 4.3 simulator from xCode 4.6. I copy the sdk for simulator 4.3 at the path, it builds successfully but cant run the application in simulator. So now what can I do to solve the problem?
Thank you in advance
If you are using Mac OS 10.7.x and have upgraded to Xcode 4.6, then you could have or download simulator 4.3 version. But, if you are using Mac OS 10.8.x, then you can not have simulator 4.3 version. The reason is 4.3 simulator on Mac OS 10.8.x crashed a lot, so Apple has removed that.
Check this link:- http://iphonedevsdk.com/forum/iphone-sdk-development/111568-what-happened-to-the-ios-4-3-simulator-in-xcode-4-6.html
Go to Xcode -> Preferences -> Downloads and make sure the "Target SDK" you have selected in your project is in fact installed under the Downloads windows. For me this magically was uninstalled. Once i installed the SDK that my app was using, all worked again
Also Check
Xcode>Preferences> click Downloads tab. The supported simulators are in there.
Please try this and let me inform any problem still exists.
Go to Xcode -> Preferences -> Downloads -> Components
There you can see the list of simulators (v4.3 also there). Click on install against the simulator that you want to install.
After Installation, restart Xcode
Go to the project info and set your build target to iOS Version 4.3
Now the simulator version 4.3 will be listed in your schema selector.
Cheers :)
Note: If you are using Mac 10.8, you cannot have 4.3 simulator
I've recently installed XCode 4.3.1 which I downloaded from developer.apple.com site. Previously, I uninstalled an older version (XCode 4.1) by command line from /Developer/Applications... directory.
Now, I can't find any XCode directory at this point, neither I can't found XCode.app in /Applications folder.
Somebody knows where I can find XCode launcher, uninstaller or directory where I can run the app?
My OS: Mac OS X 10.7.3 (Lion)
Any help will be appreciated!
Regards.
If your running Lion you probably should be downloading xCode from the app store instead of developer.apple.com
I installed Xcode 4.2 and it only has iOS SDK version 5 under /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS5.0.sdk. However, my iOS Deployment Target is specified as iOS 4.0. The problem is that I cannot launch my app in the iOS Simulator if the version of the Simulator is lower than 5.0. That is, the program crashes under those:
iPhone 4.0 Simulator
iPhone 4.1 Simulator
iPhone 4.2 Simulator
iPhone 4.3 Simulator
Before I had Xcode 4.0 and everything worked correctly under all of the above simulators. Now the only working version is iPhone 5.0 Simulator.
Am I doing something wrong? How do I test my app on older iOS versions? Is it even possible with Xcode 4.2?
UPDATE: It all started working after I changed the compiler from LLVM GCC 4.2 to Apple LLVM compiler 3.0. But I'm still interested if anyone knows how to fix the stuff with the old compiler.
You must download in Components : iOS 4.0 and 4.1 Debugging Support and iOS Simulator for 4.x
You can update Deployment Target to iOS 5 because it's a later version of SDK that "knows" all about 4-version. Keep in mind that if no debug build if SDK < OS.
Yes it is possible you can install the older version of IOS SDK
Download xcode_3.2.6_and_ios_sdk_4.3.dmg
Mount the .dmg file Inside the disk image there is an invisible "Packages" folder.
To open it select "Go to folder..." command from Finder menu bar and digit the path "/Volumes/Xcode and iOS SDK/Packages/"
Now double-click "iPhoneSimulatorSDK4_2.pkg"
Click into the destination disk and a button "Select folder..." will be revealed
Click the above button and select your "Developer" folder
Install and Restart Xcode.
This will install the Simulator 4.2 SDK (both iPad and iPhone) inside the folder "/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/"
Now inside XCode 4.2 you can select this simulator from the menu.
I got this from following link and it works for me..

About 3 months ago I set up my iPhone for development; installed the provisioning profile, updated the device to the latest version of iOS, namely 4.3.3 (8J2) and testing applications on my iPhone worked 100%.
Today I went back to working on one of my iPhone applications after not having worked in XCode for about a month, and now I do not seem to be able to deploy applications to my iPhone. When I try deploy and run on my iPhone, I get the message "No provisioning iOS device connected", even though my iPhone is connected.
If I look in the organizer window of XCode, I see my iPhone listed there under DEVICES, but I see the following message when I select my iPhone entry:
The version of iOS on “Bruce Hill’s iPhone” does not match any of the versions of iOS
supported for development with this installation of the iOS SDK. Please restore the
device to a version of the OS listed below, or update to the latest version of the iOS
SDK; which is available here.
OS Installed on Bruce Hill’s iPhone
4.3.3 (8J2)
Xcode Supported iOS Versions
4.3.3 (8J2)
4.2 (8C134)
4.1
4.0
4.0.2
4.0.1
3.2
3.2.2
3.2.1
3.1
3.1.3
3.1.2
Does anyone have an idea what is going wrong here and why XCode seems to think that my iPhone has an unsupported version of iOS installed, when in fact the latest version is installed?
UPDATE:
I have tried restarting my Macbook Pro, doing a hard reboot of my iPhone and removing my iphone entry in the organizer. None of these actions helped. My iPhone keeps getting listed in the organizer with an orange circle and if I hover over my iPhone entry I get a tooltip message that says "This device is busy or otherwise unusable by Xcode."
I did notice that in my developer information in System Profiler it only shows sdk 4.2 (8C134) installed, not 4.3.3 (8J2), even though Xcode lists it as being present and supported in the message I quoted above. Here is my developer information:
Version: 3.2 (10M2423)
Location: /Developer
Applications:
Xcode: 3.2.5 (1760)
Interface Builder: 3.2.5 (823)
Instruments: 2.7 (3017)
Dashcode: 3.0.2 (333)
SDKs:
Mac OS X:
10.4: (8S2167)
10.5: (9L31a)
10.6: (10M2423)
iPhone OS:
4.2: (8C134)
iPhone Simulator:
3.2: (7W367a)
4.0: (8A400)
4.1: (8B117)
4.2: (8C134)
I think what happened here is that I installed Xcode and then later did an update of my iPhone to iOS 4.3.3. This problem then occurred because my Macbook Pro actually didn't have the SDK for 4.3 installed, even though Xcode seemed to think that it was installed.
So, I got this working by downloading an installing Xcode 4.0.2 and iOS SDK 4.3. I downloaded Xcode from here: http://developer.apple.com/xcode/
Once Xcode 4.0.2 was installed and running, I connected my iPhone, it showed the orange dot again briefly (for about 10 seconds or so) and then this turned to a green dot and I was able to deploy my application to my device again... FINALLY!! :) In my developer settings in System Profiler, I also see iPhone OS: 4.3:(8H7) listed there now. I think that this issue would also have been resolved by installing Xcode 3.2.6 with iOS SDK 4.3, as this would, I think, also have resolved the missing or corrupt SDK 4.3 on my Macbook, but I chose to download and install the latest version.
So, bottom line: Xcode working again! I am happy! :)
I had a similar problem with my 3GS and i solve it by resetting iPhone's developer configuration. Try to hard reset your device (here' the link - don't worry, your dta will survive). Then remove your device from Xcode organizer and add it again.
Also try 'Cleaning' your Xcode project and just turning off your phone and back on again. Restart your computer while you're at it. After it's back up, open Xcode, then plug in the device. It should do its thing then start working again. I had the same issue a few times when I updated and hadn't disconnected/reconnected everything.
