I can't upgrade to Xcode 4 because I am still running Snow Leopard and my computer doesn't have the hardware to support Lion. Is there anyway I can get the iOS 5 SDK still? I checked on Apple's site, but I only see iOS 4.2 for Xcode 3.2.6.
Yes, Xcode 4.2 with SDK 5 works fine on Snow Leopard. You can download it from the iOS Dev Center. You need to have a paid developer account to see these versions of Xcode. It's right below Xcode 4.2.1 for Lion (as of 2011-12-13):
Xcode 4.2 for Snow Leopard
If you don't join the iOS Developer Program, the link to download Xcode 4.2 for Snow Leopard will not be available, so NKijak is right. If you create a developer account but don't pay for the Dev Program you can only access the 3.2 version of Xcode in Snow Leopard. I've accessed the Downloads page with both types of account to test this, so either pay and join the Dev Program or get stuck with iOS 4 (or borrow an account just to download Xcode)

I'm running XCode 4.2 on Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on a Dell Mini 1010. So it's a hackintosh. Anyway I already managed to get ios 5.1 SDK installed and I can debug applications on my iPad 1st gen running 5.1 which is great. (Following this method Is it possible to get the iOS 5.1 SDK for Xcode 4.2 on Snow Leopard?)
Now I also installed ios 6 SDK along with the device support files for 6.0. However my iPhone is running 6.1.4 which means I require the 10B350 device support file. Does anyone know where I can get this? My iPhone shows up in the organizer panel with this message "dyld_shared_cache_extract_dylibs failed"
Now I can also develop apps with the iphone 6 sdk, which works fine. And I even have the developer certificate installed on my iPhone 5.
So it seems to be an intitialisation error within xcode?
Help or tips appreciated.
Cheers

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.
How do I run Xcode on OS X 10.6.8 / Snow Leopard? The Xcode 4 on the App Store is only compatible with 10.7 / Lion and upwards.
Any clue, any hope for goodold 10.6.8 users ?
If you can log into the iOS Developer Portal, do that and then search for Xcode 4.2 for Snow Leopard and you'll get Xcode 4 for 10.6.8.
Otherwise, go to Downloads for Apple Developers, search for Xcode and then you'll find a download for Xcode 4.2 for Snow Leopard.
If you're a paid developer, you can download it from apple's online downloads section.
If you're not, you're screwed.
should you only download XCode 4.1 from the app store if you move to Lion?
i.e I am staying on Leopard for a few more weeks, so do I have to stay with XCode 4.0.2 until I move to Lion?
Yes. Xcode 4.1 Requires Lion. This has been well documented, but 4.2 is apparently available for Snow Leopard as well.
Xcode 4.2 is available for both Lion and Snow Leopard, if you download it from the iOS Developer Centre while logged in as a registered developer. The Mac App Store will only upgrade you to Xcode 4.2 if you upgrade to Lion, but you can manually install it on Snow Leopard by manually downloading it as described here, and it runs just fine on Snow Leopard.
Yes moving to Lion is a requirement. 4.1 brings all of the Lion features into the Xcode environment. I would say if you aren't ready to move to Lion yet, then just stick with 4.0.2 unless you need to develop for Lion.
UPDATE: As of Xcode 4.2, it is now for both Lion and Snow Leopard.
Yes, it seems:
This is a pre-release version of Xcode 4.1 for both Mac and iOS development. This release requires Mac OS X Lion and includes iOS SDK 4.2. Continue to use Xcode 3.2.5 on a Snow Leopard partition if you plan to submit Mac or iOS apps to the App Store

UPDATE: This question was asked in Jul 2011. As of now, Nov 2011, Xcode 4.2 is already released and made available on the Mac App store.
I run MAC OSX 10.6.7 and have Xcode 3.2.6 and I do NOT have an ADC account.
My Xcode is missing Iphone SDK, from where and how can find/download it? and which SDK do you recommend, 3.0 ?
Get a developer account and download it from there. IIRC, the dev account is free and will get you an iOS SDK for the current shipping iOS version. To run something on a device requires a $99/year fee.
iOS 4.x is the current shipping version.
bbum is right that a developer account will allow you to download XCode for free. However, you need to select an old version of XCode as the current version is for more recent operating systems (Mountain Lion at the time of this answer).
After logging in to your free Apple developer account, go to this link (apple developer downloads) and search through old versions of XCode. The most recent that will work for Snow Leopard is XCode 3.2.6 with iOS SDK 4.3.
It's a very big file (over 4 GBytes!). Good luck.
