Do I need to install XCode4 in order to - iphone

Do I need to install XCode4 (and iOS SDK 4.3) in order to install my app on iPhone's with iOS 4.3.2 installed on them?
I've installed the app on my iPhone which I just installed iOS 4.3.2 on but I thought it may just have worked because I had installed it previously on that phone when I had an older iOS version.
By the way, I'm using XCode version 3.2.5
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

You should be able to test on iOS 4.3 devices with Xcode 3.2.6.

XCode 4.6.3 not detecting iphone device which has 7.0.2

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

XCode not recognizing my iphone

XCode was recognizing my device just a day ago but now its not. I am getting the error in the organizer below. I know there are many other questions like this but non of them are answering my question. I am unable to see "Use for Development" button, neither adding to portal is fixing the issue. I have upgraded the device when 5.1 came and was able to use the device for testing but dont know what happend yesterday and it stop recognizing the device.
The version of iOS on “Adil Muhammad’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 Adil Muhammad’s iPhone
5.1 (9B176)
Xcode Supported iOS Versions
Latest
5.0 (9A334)
4.3
4.2
you updated your phone, so you need the latest xcode installed to now develop apps on your dev phone
As your Device ios version is higher than what your xcode support.
Upgrade you xcode with the latest one (xcode 4.3).
This is the only Resason

Installing xCode on Mac 10.7.2 - I need to know the version of xcode

I need to download and install xcode. But i need to know the version of xCode that i need to install on a Mac 10.7.2. Event the link says that i am capable of installing xcode 4.3.2, i herd that it crashes.
So what is the stable version of xcode that i could install on 10.7.2 ?
Xcode is available in app store, you don't have to go to iOS dev center to download it.
Xcode 4.3 is required for building on iOS devices running 5.1. Xcode 4.3 appears to be very stable, I have not had any issues with it whatsoever. Just search for "Xcode" in the Mac App Store, and you can download it from there.

Which XCode version supports iOS 4.3.5 sdk

My Mac OS X version is 10.6.8 and currently i am having XCode 3.2.5 installed with iOS 4.2 sdk.
I want to run my application on iOS 4.3.5 sdk simulator.
Which XCode version has supporting iOS 4.3.5 sdk?
Thanks!!!
You have a rather old version of Xcode. You should upgrade to Xcode 4.2 and get a new SDK. By default SDK 5 is used. However it is possible to download older SDKs.
Choose Xcode -> Preferences and then Downloads. Press the Componentsbutton and you will have access to support for older stuff. Select the components that you want to download in the list.
It is not possible to install the SDK separate from Xcode, according to this.
XCode => 3.2.6 should work. However, any XCode 4 version should work as well. You'll have to download the IOS4 SDK manually for those, as the current XCode Packages only include the IOS 5 SDK.

Testing multiple iOS versions in Simulator

How can I test multiple iOS versions in the Simulator? I can only seem to test iOS 4.1. I would like to be able to test 3.x versions in the simulator as well.
Cocoa with Love has a good post on how to do this
To allow simulation in 3.1.3, you must
install an old version of Xcode. If
you are a registered iPhone developer,
you can download Xcode 3.1.4 for
Leopard with iPhone SDK 3.1.3 or Xcode
3.1.4 for Snow Leopard with iPhone SDK 3.1.3. Be careful to install these in a different location to your Xcode
3.2.3 with iOS3.2/iOS4 (either select a different hard disk or rename your
existing /Developer directory before
you install).
In the "hardware" menu are options to change the device and the version.
You can install several version of SDK in different path.
To download an older SDK :
