Unable to install Xcode 5 under Yosemite - xcode

I've installed Yosemite (developer preview) on my mac. After that, I'm not able to install Xcode from App Store. Error message:
"Xcode can not be installed because your OSX version is too new."
Is there any way to avoid that ?

Download any version of Xcode 5 from the Apple Developer Downloads website and install it from .dmg

Install XCode on MacOS 10.15 Catalina

I'm getting an error where I can't install XCode because my MacOS version is 10.15 when the requirement is version 11 or higher.
I don't want to upgrade my mac version because this is a company laptop so my other development tools might get affected.
How do I create a workaround for this?
The latest version of Xcode you can run on Catalina (10.15.4) is Xcode 12.4 and Command Line Tools 12.4.
You can download older versions of Xcode and the Command Line Tools from Apples developer site.

Xcode can’t be installed on “Macintosh HD” because macOS version 10.13.6 or later is required

I am struggling to build app with unity on xcode.
In the beginning, I could not build the app on my iPhone from xcode because I got this error
This iPhone 8 (Model A1863, A1905, A1906, A1907) is running iOS
12.1.2 (16C101), which may not be supported by this version of Xcode.
I also tried to install the older version xcode but it did not work since it requires new version as mentioned above.
Then, I attempted to reinstall xcode now and got error
Xcode can’t be installed on “Macintosh HD” because macOS version
10.13.6 or later is required.
I am using version 10.12.6 macOS Sierra and I think that there should be available installation version 10.13.6 on my App Store but 10.13 doesn't show up in my app store updates section.
Therefore, I went to Apple official page to upgrade to 10.13 but it said that this update requires macOS version 10.13.
I cannot install even version version 10.13.
How can I update my OS and install xcode to solve this issue ?
find the Xcode version corresponding to your current OS version here https://developer.apple.com/support/xcode/
download it using your Apple Developer account here https://developer.apple.com/download/
To Install the latest macOs version,
click on apple icon click on About this Mac, then click on software update
It will show you latest macOs version available, then you can install latest version of XCode

You need to download macOS version 10.13.6. You can download it from here You may need to have a developers account but you can get a free one by going to Apple developers. You may need to google that. Once you get 10.13.6 loaded you can then download Xcode 10.1
I had same problem
You must upgrade to latest macOS version.

Xcode 6.3 not running iOS 8.4 - update to 6.4 fails

I have upgraded my iOS to 8.4, then I tried to run Xcode 6.3, it asks it can't mount the device since it's running 8.4 version (".. running a version of iOS that is not supported by this version of Xcode.")
When I try to upgrade Xcode to 6.4 - update fails every time with error message (try again using purchases).
Any suggestions how to solve this?
Delete /Applications/Xcode.app.
Download Xcode 6.4 from the Apple Developer Download site.
Mount the .dmg and extract Xcode.app into /Applications.
You don't need to delete /Applications/Xcode.app.
Open a terminal.
Copy this: xcode-select --install and paste it in the terminal
Install.
After the install has completed, you can see in the App Store that is possible to update your Xcode.
I did that and I can update my Xcode from 6.3 to 6.4.
What I've done and worked..Open the Mac App Store, search for the Xcode, check that it shows the latest version and then click install. It will start to downloading and installing the latest version.

Multiple xcode versions in Lion OSX

I want to install xcode 4.1 in my iMac OSX Lion. But in my iMac, I have Xcode 4.2.1. How to install iOS 4.1 but not override Xcode 4.2.1?
First download and install Xcode 4.1, then go the the Mac App Store and download version 4.3.2. When installing 4.3.2 you will be prompted to delete the older version, select no. You will be able to do this because older versions of Xcode (4.1) install to /Developer whereas this newest release (4.3.2) is a .app bundle that installs to /Applications.

Installing xcode 4.1 for Lion after OSX Lion update?

How can I uninstall Xcode 4.1 snow leopard so I can install lion?
The app store doesn't detect that you have Xcode installed, it detects that you have the Xcode installer installed. That must still be around somewhere.
