Why can't I use my older Xcode version after an upgrade? - iphone

I had been using Xcode 3.1.3 on Leopard, but I just upgraded to Snow Leopard (10.6.4) and upgraded my Xcode to 3.2 with the iOS 4.0 SDK. Now I'm not able to go back to my older Xcode version to build projects for an older OS version.
How can I build applications that target my original model iPhone, which doesn't support iOS 4.0?

There was options to install xCode version at the time of installing xCode Please also select xCode 3.1.3 and 3.0 at the time of installing.

run the app on iPhone 3GS os 6.1 using Xcode 4.3.2

I am using Xcode 4.3.2 and want to run app on iPhone 3GS but when I am opening organizer window and showing following:
The version of iOS on “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 iPhone
6.1 (10B141)
Xcode Supported iOS Versions
Latest
5.1 (9B176)
5.0
4.3
4.2
please suggest me .
Since downgrading the iOS version is difficult and doesn’t sound like an option for you, I think you must follow the other option:
update to the latest version of the iOS SDK
The iOS 6.1 SDK is included in Xcode 4.6.
Make your code compatible for ios 6.1
and try using xcode 4.5

xCode 4.2.3 can not compile to iOS 5.1.1 (9B208) or iOS 5.1.1 (9B206)

Yesterday after about a whole nights tinkering i manage to compile for 5.1.1
That was after i downgraded from iOS 5.1.1 (9B208) to iOS 5.1.1 (9B206) as a last desperate attempt.
But today afte a restart im back to square one.
When i go to the organizer and select devices from the top menu i get the following text as before:
The version of iOS on “xs 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 xs iPhone
5.1.1 (9B206)
Xcode Supported iOS Versions Latest
5.0 (9A334)
4.3
4.2
I feel completely dumbfounded that it has to be so vastly complicated getting xcode and iOS go together.
But lets say i clean out xcode and reinstall my iphone.
Is there a safe way to compile for the latest IOS "currently 5.1.1"?
As others have pointed out, you need to install the latest version of Xcode, which is 4.3.2.
We recently had this problem after the latest iOS update and upgrading Xcode solved it just fine.
I had similar problems until I upgraded my Xcode to the latest version. Upgrading should fix your issue.
I had a similar problem and I can not upgrade to Xcode 4.3.x because I am still running Snow Leopard and 4.2 still is the latest Xcode version. I solved the issue after following the steps in this answer

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.

iPhone SDK 4 The version of iPhone OS on “” does not match any of the versions of iPhone OS

Right,
I am running XCode 3.2.3 with the iPhone 4 SDK. I have paid apple and enrolled, added my certificates and provisioning profiles. Now, I have plugged my iPod into Xcode and clicked "Use for development". My iPhone is running iOS 4.1 and Xcode says -
The version of iPhone OS on “” does
not match any of the versions of
iPhone OS supported for development
with this installation of the iPhone
SDK. Please restore the device to a
version of the OS listed below, or
update to the latest version of the
iPhone SDK; which is available here.
OS Installed on ....
4.1 (8B117)
Xcode Supported iPhone OS Versions
4.0.2
4.0.1
4.0
3.2.2
3.2.1
3.2
3.1.3
3.1.2
3.1.1
3.1
3.0.1
3.0
So do I need to download the whole XCode and iPhone SDK package again?
Will updating the SDK screw with my app?
Cheers!
You have to update your XCode to latest version. Along with that iOS will be upgraded to 4.1 automatically.
your app won't get screwed up.

Development use of iOS 4.0 (8A293)

I recently upgraded my new iPod from iPhone OS 3.1.3 to iPhone OS 4.0 (8A293). However wen attached with xcode organizer i get following error.
OS Installed on Panks’s iPod

3.2
3.1.3

I tried to downgrade IOS to 4.0 (8A274b) however wen installation is complete it says OS expired error msg and just shows connecting itunes icon.
Can anyone please help.
Thanks
It sounds like you have one of the developer betas of Xcode installed. The 8A274b build was for the beta right before the gold master was released. Just download the latest SDK and install it over your current install.
