i'm getting conflicting info on xcode. i'm currently running mac os x 10.6.8 and have the xcode_3.2.6_and_ios_sdk_4.3.dmg installer.
wikipedia says version 4.2 is compatible with mac os x 10.6:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xcode_Tools
"Mac OS X 10.6 (Versions 3.2, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2)"
i thought xcode 3.2.6 was the _last_ version that worked with mac os x 10.6.8? if not, any idea where i can find version 4.2 for mac os x 10.6.8?
Find it at Xcode 4.2 for Snow Leopard.
Find it at Xcode 4.2 for Snow Leopard.
thanks for answering. i've been there and all i see is xcode 3.2.6 and ios sdk 4.3 for snow leopard on page 3 (which is what i already have waiting to be installed "xcode_3.2.6_and_ios_sdk_4.3.dmg"). is there a specific link i'm missing? that's the only download on all 7 pages with the words snow leopard in it. looks like i'm sol.
Search for it at that site. I found it, so you can, too.
now you've got me going, i can't find it anywhere. i go here:
https://developer.apple.com/downloads/index.action
all is see for snow leopard is xcode 3.2.6 and ios sdk 4.3 for snow leopard on page 3
searched everywhere else i can search. i see Xcode 4.3.2 for Lion and i click the "Looking for additional developer tools? View Downloads" and it takes me to the same 7 pages (125 results)?
nope. there's no Xcode 4.2 for Snow Leopard
access to xcode 4 for snow leopard requires a paid developer account. yet anyone and their dog can download xcode 4.3.2 for lion from the app store. figure that one out.
thanks apple.
Guess that's the reason. I am a paid developer. Guess you're stuck with what you've got or have to pay $99 to get access to the other.
i guess so. it would make far more sense for apple to charge $$ for xcode 4.3.2 for lion since it's brand new and give xcode for snow leopard away for free on the app store. go figure. i'll get it off a cd from someone i know who has a newer mac than i do.
Apple want to force people to there new (very bad) OSX 10.7 - and I'm not willing to "upgrade", because I still want to be in charge of my computer!
So, either Apple will make the download of OSX 4.0.2 / 4.2 for Snow Leopard FREE, or it will end up on a external download server.
Its not that hard, just let normal developers (without the $99 "extra") download the .dmg.
Might I add, that you apearantly need to not only be a paid developer, but a paid OS X developer. I have current paid iOS developer access and can not download the file either.
Hey guys,
I finally gave up and got a paid OSX dev account, so I could download Xcode 4 for SL. (some companies I consult with cannot update to Lion) but I can't seem to track down 4.2 Xcode for SL on this site:
https://developer.apple.com/downloads/index.action
Did they remove it finally, or do you still see it in the downloads list?
thanks
-Andy
If you paid for the developer account, you'll need to inquire there. AFAICT, it's no longer available.
Alright, thanks for the info!
-Andy
To put things straight:-
The latest available xcode version for Snow Leopard is 4.2
It would be provided for download only to a registered iOS Developer (99$ fee). Once your membership is activated, you can start seeing the "XCode 4.2 for Snow Leopard" in the list of downloads (search for "xcode 4.2" here - https://developer.apple.com/downloads/index.action)
Any releases post 4.2 are not available for SL (including the patch release 4.2.1). They are provided only for Lion.
xcode for mac os x 10.6.8
