I have Xcode version 4.2 with OS X 10.7.2, and I was trying to install our app on the new iPad, which is running iOS 5.1. The problem is Xcode doesn't recognize the iPad as a deployable device. I know this is a common issue, but please read it all.
I get this in the organizer: (after push the "use for development")
The version of iOS on “iPad” does not match any of the versions of iOS supported for development with this installation of the iOS SDK. Please restore the device to a version of the OS listed below, or update to the latest version of the iOS SDK; which is available here.
OS Installed on iPad
5.1 (9B176)
Xcode Supported iOS Versions
Latest
5.0 (9A334)
4.3
4.2
Now I know that in order to connect the iOS 5.1 device to Xcode I need the latest release of Xcode, but I can connect another iPhone with iOS 5.1 to the same Xcode and deploy an app to it.
Why is that?
The only different between them is that this iPhone was previously connected to Xcode, and the iPad was not. I did manage to install an app to iPhone with iOS 5.1!
What is happening here? I don't want to install the new Xcode for nothing if I can install to 5.1.
Thanks.
Xcode will not let you build to an iOS version higher than it supports, and in this case with Xcode 4.2, you will not be able to deploy to iOS 5.1. I recommend updating to OS X Lion 10.7.3 and downloading the 4.3.2 version of Xcode. Do this any you will be able to deploy to your 5.1 device without any problems. In addition to this, the second device should not be able to receive builds from Xcode. Please check and see if the device in question is in fact running iOS 5.0.1 and not 5.1 as 5.1 will not work on Xcode 4.2 and 5.0.1 will.

I got the following error:
Xcode cannot run using the selected device.
No provisioned iOS devices are available with a compatible iOS version. Connect an iOS device with a recent enough version of iOS to run your application or choose an iOS simulator as the destination.
xcode 5.0.2 (5A3005)
iphone 4S with iOS 7.1.1
Development Target is 7.0
Code signing Provisioning profile is set to IOS Team Provisioning Profile.
In Xcode -> Window -> Organizer - Devices
The version of iOS on is not supported by this installation of the iOS SDK. Please restore the device to a version of the OS listed below, or update to the latest version of the iOS SDK; which is available here.
OS Installed on
7.1.1 (11D201)
Xcode Supported iOS Versions
Not sure why the xcode supported IOS versions is blank here.
Already tried to project clean, remove device and reconnect and set target to lower version. None of these methods work.
Please advise.
thank you
After upgrading to Xcode 5.1.1, it's working fine now.
Thx
Xcode 4.4.1 crashes in OS 10.9 when I switch to xib. file in my project.
Log shows that problem is connected to iOS 5.1 simulator.
Is it possible to add support of iOS 5.1 simulator in OS X 10.9?
If it is possible how can I solve this problem?
install later Xcode and copy SDK from older Xcode? (will it work?)
do something only with Xcode 4.4.1? (any way I need to install Xcode 5, but I need Xcode 4.4.1 too)
In Xcode you can specify which version of iOS the simulator shall use.
Preferences > Downloads
As far as I know in it is only possible to go back to iOS6.0 and iOS6.1 when using Xcode5.
This is related to Xcode and not OSX.
It will not work because in Xcode 5 under OS X v10.9 the iOS 5 simulator is not available. (I've tried it)
A newbie question. I have Xcode 3.2.6 and my ipad is iOS 6.0. It seems this version of Xcode doesn't support the iOS version. What version do I need to upgrade my Xcode to so that I can test apps on devices running iOS 6.
And, my second question do I have to download the .dmg to upgrade Xcode. Currently I am running snow leopard 10.6.8.
For iOS 6 you will need Xcode 4.5 and at least Lion (10.7)
You need OS X Lion 10.7.4 or later to install the latest version of Xcode from the AppStore. Then you will be able to build apps to your device with iOS 6.0.
I have the following configuration on Mac OS X 10.7.4:
MonoDevelop 3.0.3.2
Mono 2.10.9
Xcode 4.3.3
Monotouch 5.2.12
I'd like to test my app developed in Monotouch, on iOS 4.3, because on iOS 5.0 works fine. To do that i've tried to install simulator 4.3 in Xcode but when i open Monotouch there is just Simulator 5.0.
I read some information on google and obviously, it advised to install SDK 4.3 but there is no version with this SDK for iOS Lion (the only one on Apple developers website is for Snow Leopard).
I would be interested to know how to install the simulator on my computer.
It's a bit hidden but you can still download of Xcode releases from: https://developer.apple.com/downloads/index.action
Downloading Xcode 4.0 should give you the final SDK for iOS 4.3.
You can install 4.2 and 4.3 (.app) side-to-side on Lion (I have them). This should also work for 4.0 and 4.3 since they (like 4.2) ends up in different directories.
Note that you'll need to tell MonoDevelop to switch Apple SDK location (and restart MD).
The solution that worked for me was to install it through Xcode.
XCode > Preferences > Downloads
You should see installs available here. Click the Install button to get it.
my Mac has Snow Leopard and Xcode about shows 4.2 (4c199)
An update came to my iphone4 and it has now ios5.1 (used to be ios5.01)
When I try to run on the ios device target the build goes through fine but the installation fails with "no provisional ios devices are available with a compatible ios version".
When I look in Xcode organizer I can see similarly:
The version of iOS on “XXXXXX’s iPhone” does not match any of the versions of iOS supported for development with this installation of the iOS SDK. Please restore the device to a version of the OS listed below, or update to the latest version of the iOS SDK; which is available here.
and here is what the organizer shows:
OS Installed on XXXXX’s iPhone
5.1 (9B176)
Xcode Supported iOS Versions
Latest
5.0 (9A334)
4.3
4.2 (8C134)
4.2
What is the meaning of "Latest" here?
I hope I do not need to install Xcode 4.3 as it will require moving to Mountain Lion in the middle of the project?
Prior to this update the things used to work, I think (lately I was working only in the simulator, but before that everything work on the iphone ok).
Thanks for any help in advance.

Victor
Your mistake was updating your iphone to IOS 5.1, because your current version of xcode doesn't support it. So basically, you either have to downgrade your IOS device to 5.0 or you have to upgrade to Lion(not mountain lion) and then install the latest version of xcode which does supports IOS 5.1.
Downgrading can be a bitch btw, so I think lion is your best bet. Ill have to do the same soon. Hope this made things a little more clear! Best of luck man!
