Cannot install XCode for Snow Leopard from the Appstore.

So... I reinstalled OSX, mainly for the fact I wanted to... but now I'm trying to reinstall my Apps from the App Store, specificly XCode4, which is now titled "XCode for Snow Leopard" in my purchased apps... But I cannot download/install it. I get an "This is not available error" followed by a Error 100...

Apple tech support is being utterly useless for this. Any ideas?

XCode-OTHER, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

If you're a registered developer you can download Xcode 3.2.6 or 4.0.2 for Snow Leopard....

Xcode 4.1.1 from the App Store is for Lion only. If you require Xcode 4 for Snow Leopard, you need to be a registered fee paying developer. Alternatively, you can download version 3 for free.


Apple used to sell Xcode 4 to non-registered developers on the App Store for something like $5, but it looks like it's no longer available. This may explain why you are seeing the error.

Xcode ( 4.1.1) on the AppStore is now only for Lion.



On the Developer Portal you can still access the freely available 3.2.6 package even without being a paying Apple Developer ( need only a Apple-ID to connect to the Mac Developer Portal for normal Users ) . 4.x was a paid app, so it is not accesible for average users from there nor from AppStore.
