I installed XCode 4.3 from App Store. When i run the application the xcode version is showing 4.1.
Present my mac version is Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3. Can any tell me the process how to load xcode 4.3.
Thanks in advance.
Just install it from LaunchPad.
You may have to explicitly go to the Mac Store and get this update as though it were a new download; it used to come through Apple->Software Update in the past (and I think in the future it will be a Mac Store update that you get just like any other Mac Store update), but this particular transition (4.2->4.3) is a bit more work.

When I go to the Apple app store and tried to download I got the below response, can I get any idea how I can bypass this issue?
Xcode can’t be installed on “Macintosh HD” because macOS version
10.13.2 or later is required.
It seems like you have old OS X. Try to download from the internet Xcode 3/4/5.

Read this about older versions.
To check your OS X:
Go to the left top part of the screen.
Press "About This Mac". Now you see your OS X and can Google for suitable xCode version.
You are probably running Sierra or less, You need to update you Mac OS X into High Sierra in order to update and use the latest Xcode 9.3.
Note: You could be running High Sierra but make sure you update to the latest OS X Release from App Store > Updates Tap and make sure its all updated.
I'm on El Capitan in XCode 7.3.1 and Swift 2 trying to make my mac application work on Yosemite (it just doesn't open at all with no crash logs).
I have 10.10 set as the deployment target, but that didn't change anything.
I downloaded Xcode 6.4 on another machine and loaded the project and it's complaining a ton about all of my swift code not being a thing.
I'm assuming (hoping) I don't have to figure out how to write this in an old version of Swift in order to make it work on Yosemite.
How do I know which features of the new SDK need to be made backwards compatible?
I can't install Xcode 4. I have some files that I need to open in Xcode 4. However, when I try to install it, it says "Xcode Install Assistant cannot be installed on this disk. The version of OS X is too new." How can I make it think I'm on Lion or Mountain Lion?
Here is a picture:
Download it in the App Store - it's the newest version and looks like the disc you have doesn't support Mavericks.
I feel tired of these preposterous answers. I think that if you want to stick to an older version of something, you should be able to. Also, I don't think software like XCode 4 are that old anyway.
But, to the point: I think XCode 4.6.3 is compatible with Mavericks. I am not sure about previous 4.6.X, but I think none of them work.
Any versions prior would require a previous operating system. I think you could try using pacifist to install the version you want, but I haven't found any guides.
If your problem is with project compatibility, in XCode 5 there is an option to save the project in a way it is compatible with XCode 4.6, and I suppose 4.6 offers a similar option to save in a version prior. Of course, you may need to adapt the code of the projects accordingly. Usually I try to stick with the Snow-Leopard-compatible code, because it compiles fine in all XCode 4.X and 5.X versions.
You can download any of these from the developer website.
I would try partitioning the disk and installing an older Mac OS X. I work with Snow Leopard and Mavericks in the same Mac. I usually do interface tasks in SL and the rest on Mavericks. The other advantage is that I have both XCode 4.2 and 3.2.6 in the same machine, so I can manage some backwards compatibility. =D
I work on Mac 10.6 because I don't want to lose spaces to Lion. It's an extremely efficient part of my workflow. And I program for the iPad and need to write for iOS 5.1 and the new retina display, but for some reason apple has made the new Xcode only available for Mac 10.7 or later.
How can I either install the new Xcode, find a workable Xcode, or somehow install iOS 5.1 support into my current Xcode? (4.0.1)
You can not do that without cheat with Apple, you need to stay up to date !
It is not possible, you have to upgrade. Xcode 4.3 is coded with innovations that will only work on OS X Lion.
The cap was Xcode 4.2 that ran on SL. You will have to upgrade or continue only developing for older, legacy iOS versions (not a good option).
itunes asked me to upgrade my iphone's OS to 3.1.3, so I complied naively.
then xcode told me that the latest iphone OS version it could support was 3.1.2. So I went to download a new version from https://developer.apple.com/iphone/index.action#downloads, xcode 3.2.2 with iphone SDK.
but when i went to install that, i was told I needed snow leopard 10.6.2 or later. so I'm just making sure that I am not misinterpreting anything when I say that, given that it is impossible to downgrade iphone OS versions without jailbreaking, I need to install a new version of the OS just so I can resume testing apps on my iphone?
given that it is impossible to
downgrade iphone OS versions without
jailbreaking
I'm not sure that's correct. I've done it before on ipods. If you go to ~/Library/iTunes, there's a few folders in there. Look through the folders for files with an "ipsw" file extension. These are the software upgrades. When you perform an upgrade, the upgrade file is saved here. So find the one you want to "downgrade" to. If you can't find it you may be able to google for it. In any case find the appropriate file. Then in iTunes if you option-click "Check for Update" it asks you to choose the file you want to use to perform the update instead of running the update check normally... so just select the ipsw file. That should "downgrade" you... I think. As I mentioned I did it a few years ago on an ipod.
