xcode won't install

No matter what I do I can not get Xcode 4.2.1 to install it gets to a certain point then stops and gives me crap. Anyone else have this issue? I'm on Lion 10.7.2. I've tried making a new admin account and installing that way like I saw on another forum and no dice. I've tried googleing it and can't find an answer as to why this is happening. Any help would be great.


Thanks,

Carl

Yes I have the same problem. Its driving me crazy.


I have tried creating new user with admin, like you, still no joy.

I have also tried running the file directly under - package contents - resources - Xcode.mpkg, still fails.

I was able to install Xcode 3.2 from my Snow Leopard install disk, but most of the new stuff needs Xcode 4 or later.


I hope someone can help us.


Goodluck

That didn't work they couldn't help me cause they said that they were itunes and couldn't help me. However I did get it to install. Try this:


Delete all Xcode files from your hard drive even from the launchpad.

Go back to the mac app store and re download Xcode and run the install from the Applications folder.


That's what I did and it installed and is working like a charm. On my way to learning the program and making my first iOS app.
