I updated to Xcode 7 from the app store, but when I open Xcode the version still shows 6.2? 6.2 was my previous version. I also had to update my Mac OS from Mavericks to Yosemite in order to install Version 7 which I did.
Additionally, when I got the Apple Developer member center and click on Xcode version 7.0.1 it takes me to the app store and the app store update button states OPEN, but when I open the version states 'Version 6.2 (6C131e)' What's going on?
No idea what is actually happening, but this same thing happened to me. I tried enabling the Apstore debug menu and resetting things, but ultimately nothing i tried worked. I ended up uninstalling Xcode (just put it in the trash and empty) and installing fresh fixed it for me.
I had previously had the version 7 beta alongside App store Xcode (6.3 in my case), so maybe that is part of the problem?

Today, on my MacBook Pro with OS X 10.10.3, I launched the App Store application and downloaded XCode 7. After the download has ended, I cannot find any update file on my disk. App Store says XCode 7 is installed, but indeed it's not. The XCode application on my disk is still the old version 6.4 and there is no trace of the XCode 7, nor an installer on my disk. I launched XCode 6.4 hopefully some upgrading should have been launched afterwards, but nothing happened. The About window confirms: it's the version 6.4 (6E35b). I turned off the machine and rebooted. Nothing changed. So I downloaded XCode 7 once again. Same trouble. Any idea? Solution?
If you don't find another way to install XCode 7 try to install the XCode 7.1 beta. Works fine for me: https://developer.apple.com/xcode/download/
At the Apple Developer Forum I have seen that other developers had the same trouble. Anyway, after downloading XCode 7 for the 3rd time, it worked. Thanks.
I recently updated Xcode to version 6.4. In the App Store it says I have version 6.4 installed, but when I run Xcode it says version 6.3.2.
Does anyone know how I run Xcode version 6.4? Do I need to uninstall and then reinstall Xcode?
I installed it using the App Store and updated through the App Store as well.
So while I was unable to find out where Xcode 6.3.2 or 6.4 was installed on my mac, I uninstalled Xcode by dragging the application to the trash can and emptying it as recommended by Apple.
I then reinstalled Xcode 6.4 from the App Store and it appears to be working.
While it is a simple thing, I thought I would share as sometimes the simple solutions are the ones we don't think about.
I have updated my XCode to the latest 5.0 version. But recently I noticed that the AppStore still offering update-option for the XCode. When I checked the installed XCode version, it shows 5.0. What's that suppose to mean? Has it been updated or not?
Restart the computer, then open the App Store back up and if it is still there then it is nothing to worry about.
Just realised I've made a mistake of updating xcode 4.5 (iOS 6) as it causing problems.
How to uninstall xcode 4.5 (iOS 6)? safely? as iOS 6 is beta. I want to go back to xcode 5.1.
iOS6 is no longer beta. So if you installed Xcode 4.5 from the store, you already have the release version of Xcode 4.5. If not, get it from the store.
If you want an older version of Xcode, look here.
There are cases where you may not want to upgrade to the latest version of Xcode.
In my company there are still customers with iPhone 3 that are running iOS 4.2.1 and Xcode 4.5 won't generate code for it. Xcode will generate for 4.3 upwards.
Surprisingly I have an iPhone 3 (A1303) that has been upgraded to iOS 6.0 and Xcode won't generate code for that either.
So, for those that do need to downgrade, you use the link that #leo posted to get hold of the dmg for the version of Xcode you want (4.4.1 probably) and mount it. You then find the existing Xcode (in your application folder) and drag it to the waste bin, then drag the downgraded Xcode to the application folder. You may need to re-install the command line tools, if you use them. Make sure you get the version for your Mac's OS.
I had xcode 3.2.something. and iwth ios sdks 3.0-3.1-....4.1 and 2 iphone simulator sdks.
Now i installed xcode 4.0 with ios sdk 4.3 something like that.
Now all my previous applications cannot be launched nor on device nor on simulator because there's not a single old sdk available.
so next i reinserted the original cds containing macosx and xcode and reinstalled the first xcode i used, but now there's not one ios sdk available at all.
i've been surfing the net for hours now, andi have a couple of questions:
1)have i had to uninstall the xcode 3.2.x before installing xcode 4?
2)how to uninstall applications on mac??? just to make sure that the answer i've found is the correct one.
3)how can erase the traces of all previous xcodes and their sdks in order to install the original one, now that i learned how to install different xcode versions side by side.
4) now what do you think i should to recover? do i have to back up everything and reinstall mac from the beginning?
thank you
So, your questions:
1. Have I got to uninstall XCode 3.2 before installing XCode 4? - No, you don't, but the XCode installer will overwrite your old copy by default. When installing the newer version of XCode and the iOS SDK you must specify a different install directory (eg, create a new folder in the root of your drive called 'Developer 4' for XCode 4.
2. How can I uninstall XCode? - Normally on a mac you would just drag your application to the trash, but it's a little more complicated with XCode. Refer to the instructions at this link: http://pushkararora.com/how-to/how-to-uninstall-xcode-completely/
3. How can I erase all traces of all previous XCodes? - see the answer above for question 2 :)
You can obtain old versions of the SDK from various unofficial online sources if you need to roll back to iOS 3 SDKs. However, it may not be all that much work to move your apps over to the 4.x SDKs.
ok it turned out that at the beginning i was using xcode 3.2.4 with ios sdk 4.1
The xcode that comes with mac osx only targets mac sdk. No iphone support
So i got xcode 3.2.4 setup from a backup (you can find it online) and installed and this should work
And now i have 3.2.5 using sdk 4.2 and targetting all till 3.0
and also xcode 4.0.2
