I installed Lion, then XCode 4.2 from the app store.
As I understand, the iOs SDK should be install with this release.
My problem is, I only get the MacOs templates, no iOs templates.
What am I doing wrong? (It's taking Apple a few weeks now to process my company enrollment and I need to start coding so long).
While installing you need to check that you want to install iOS 5.X SDK, it doesn't install automatically. Re-run the "Install Xcode" application which AppStore downloaded and check to install iOS SDK
Be sure that /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform exists. If so, then iOS files were installed.
The iOS templates are contained in /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/Library/XCode/Templates
If they are there, but are not showing up in XCode, you can try repairing disk permissions with /Applications/Utilities/"Disk Utility".
Otherwise, you may have to rename the /Developer folder and re-install.

I'm having a bit of an issue with distributing an app via the latest version of Xcode (Version 10.1 (10B61)). Every time I try to upload it to the App Store via organizer, I get this error after uploading:
WARNING ITMS-90725: "SDK Version Issue. This app was built with the iOS 12.0 SDK. Starting March 2019, all iOS apps submitted to the App Store must be built with the iOS 12.1 SDK or later, included in Xcode 10.1 or later."
Previous answers to this question said that it was just a warning and that I should still be able to upload my app, but it is now March and I am still getting the error even on 10.1. iTunesConnect will not let me select these builds and I get emails about the validation failure.
Further details:
-The app is an iMessage extension, and uses exactly 1 framework from Carthage, which is up to date with the latest framework version and Carthage version.
-My project and Message extension targets Swift Language Version build setting is Swift 4.2.
-My deployment target is iOS 11.0, but the issue persists after selecting iOS 12.1.
-The app compiles and runs fine on my physical device running iOS 12.1.
-The issue persists after a build folder clean.
-The issue persists after reinstalling Xcode.
If anyone has any suggestions as to how I can verify my app is compiling with the latest SDK please let me know.
Whether the app runs on given iOS version, has no relevance to which SDK are you really using. The definitive SDK version used for building is found in the app's Info.plist.
after Archiving, Show the xcarchive in Finder.
right-click, Show Package Contents.
open Products/Applications/YourApp.app
right-click, Show Package Contents.
copy the Info.plist to some place where you can run terminal commands on it
/usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "print :DTSDKBuild" Info.plist
You would expect it to show "16B91" for SDK 12.1. If it's something else (SDK 12.0 would be "16A366"), here are some ideas:
inspect the Carthage dependency. Are you really building it locally or downloading a prebuilt binary? If in doubt, force local building with --no-use-binaries. Remove whole Carthage folder (Checkouts as well as Build) and start from scratch.
rm -rf ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData instead of just "build folder clean"
Verify MacOS System Report section Software/Developer for the actual SDK versions that MacOS thinks that you have
xcode-select -p to verify that you are really using the Xcode instance that you would like to
If all looks correct on your side, fill Technical Support Incident. Report the exact rejected build which you uploaded already. That should speed up the support reaction.
I filled out a bug report with Apple because I was experiencing the exact same issue and none of the above solutions worked. They made a change on their backend and now everything is back to proper working order.
If you haven't tried in awhile, make another attempt and I'm betting that it'll work this time.
I was having the same problem. My app was compiled in Xcode 10.1 but I was still getting the SDK warning. I was able to resolve it by doing the following. I'm not sure if all these steps are necessary. I didn't try validating between steps.
I upgraded macOS to Mojave (10.14.3). I had been running High Sierra.
Delete Xcode from applications folder
Reinstall Xcode from the app store
Open my project and run Project->Clean Build folder
Archive and upload and no more warnings
I cannot find iOS simulator on my mac.
I am using snow leopard, and I recently installed Xcode through the applications DVD. When I go into Developer/Platforms, apparently iOS simulator.platform should be there. But there is only a folder called MacOSX.platforms. There is a few plist files there, and one folder. Inside this folder, called Developer, iOS simulator.app is not there. This folder contains many subfolders, but none contain the application.
Can anyone help?
Thanks!
It is possible the XCode version on the applications DVD does not include the iOS tools. You can download the latest version of XCode here:
http://developer.apple.com/xcode/index.php
At the point that DVD was made, I think you still needed to download Xcode from Apple to get the iOS SDK. Just grab Xcode 4 from the App Store (on Snow Leopard, that'll set you back the princely sum of $5. Upgrade to Lion, it's free). You can also get 3.2.6 for free from Apple's developer site (register for a free developer account), but the bundled iOS SDK is so far out of date, it's worthless.
I am developing an app with Xcode 4.0.2 and iOS 4.3. Now I would like to upgrade to Xcode 4.2 and iOS 5 so that I could make my app ready when iOS 5 releases in October.
I am told by Apple's website that I should not submit apps that are built by Xcode 4.2 and should do it with the older Xcode 4.0.2, since the Xcode 4.2 and iOS 5 thing is still in beta.
But in the following few weeks I still need to have newer versions of my app submitted to App Store. So my question is,
If I upgrade my Xcode to 4.2, is it possible for me to switch back to Xcode 4.0.2?
If yes, how?
Thanks in advance!
You can simply install two versions of Xcode at the same time. During the installation it will let you choose the destination folder; you can pick another folder. For example, I use /Developer/Xcode (4.2). (However, if you did install 4.2 over 4.0.2, I don't think you would have a problem if you just ran the 4.0.2 installer again to downgrade.)

Installation
The Xcode installer will create the folder /Developer on the root of your boot partition, and place the Xcode developer tools and SDKs in this folder. If you have a previous version of Xcode you would like to preserve, you can copy the existing installation from /Developer to another folder to prevent having it updated automatically by the installer.
I would be cautious of this note (possible problems from incompatibility of tools???)
NOTE: The Xcode installer also installs system components and UNIX command line tools in a shared location on your Mac. Only one version of these components can exist on a computer at a time, and the last installed version replaces any previously installed set.
I always make sure I have a bootable drive with a decent working copy of xcode ready for releases in case I need to push a quick fix.
You can install 2 XCode in different folders.
Then you can switch back and forth.
Can I have multiple Xcode versions installed?
As the the Question asks,
I currently sport xcode 3.2.3 with iOS 4.0.1 but I want to test on my iPhone which is stuck on 4.0.2
Thus I cannot do so until the SDK for 4.0.2 is accessible from xcode.
Where can I download a patch update from 4.0.1 to 4.0.2 because the iPhone members page seems to only link me to the package including xcode 3.2.3 with iOS4.0.2 SDK
I don't want to download the whole thing because it's > 2.5 gigs and my New Zealand internet Connection is shizenhouzen.
I can't restore to a previous version, because for some reason I only have a previous back up of the iPhone on my now defunct windows PC.
I'm afraid you have to download the entire SDK - Apple do not provide 'patches' (4.0.1 to 4.02, for example) AFAIK, and I'd be nervous about downloading anything that claims it is a patch.
It's a common grumble, twitter is a fun place when apple push these .1 SDK updates out :)
You do have to download the whole thing to upgrade. It really sucks. :-(
I wish I could remember to download the SDK before upgrading my devices.
You can still build adhoc releases of your app and install them using itunes if you're in a real bind - it's just the debugger, console viewing and automatic installation of builds that won't work at all.
I installed the new GM iPhone sdk. When I try to compile against iOS 3.0, it claims that libraries are
missing. What now? I think that I have the install DMG somewhere for 3.2.2, if that helps.
Always use the newest SDK available. There is little to be gained (and a lot you give up) by building against older SDKs. It limits both what APIs you can call and also prevents your code from taking advantage of the OS features on newer devices.
If you need to deploy on older OS versions, just set the Deployment Target to the earliest version you need to run on. You don't need its SDK.
Do the following
sudo /Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools –mode=all
(This will uninstall the current XCode installation)
Then install first old XCode (3.2 final) in default folder (/Developer)
Then install the new XCode (3.2.3 GM) in other folder (/DeveloperBeta)
This way you will have both. And can launch xcode from either /Developer/Applications/Xcode.app or /DeveloperBeta/Applications/Xcode.app
3.2.3 last beta did remove all other SDK's cause to many people tried to publish Apps developed with the beta SDK, which would not be accepted by Apple. With GM it will be the same
