How can I install JDK 1.6 on Mac OSX Leopard?
In Software Update today I updated Java, and it upgraded from 1.5.0_26 to 1.5.0_28 (This is not 1.6!). I have Xcode Tools installed, version 3.0. On the download site it didn't list Mac.
JDK 6 (1.6) is preinstalled in both OS X 10.5 and 10.6. I actually didn't realize this, but it requires 64-bit hardware.
Until Mac OS X 10.7 (currently unreleased), the Java updates were maintained in-house by Apple. In 10.7, Java will no longer be maintained by Apple.
I opened Java Preferences and made Java SE 6 the first version to use

I have a 10.10.5 version Mac and I would like to know which version of Xcode supports this version? (I am not planing on upgrading)
As Wikipedia say OS X 10.10 supports Xcode version 6.x, 7.2.1.
I need to develop a GUI for my MonoMac application. Which Xcode shall I use for cocoa development?
I am using Mono 3.0 and MAC OX Lion 10.8 in VMware on Windows 7 PC.
I'm guessing that you mean MonoDevelop 3.0.x and not Mono 3.0 (they are different things).
If that is the case, any Xcode from 4.2 or newer should work (older versions might work, but have not been tested).
I would suggest that you go with 4.4 or 4.5 as you'll need those if you plan to submit to the AppStore for Mountain Lion.
What version of Xcode should I use?
I tried installing 4.2 but got this cryptic error message
If i wasn't so annoyed I'd find this funny
Is there any reason you're still on OS X 10.7.2? If you can, update your Mac to 10.7.4. As for Xcode, the current version is 4.3.2. You can download it from the Mac App Store.
The latest stable Xcode release is 4.3.2 as of May 31st, 2012. I believe there was a version for Snow Leopard (10.6) that would not work with Lion (10.7). You'll need to be a member of the developer program (free, I believe) to get the free download here.
I have osx 10.7.X and need to install Xcode. The late xcode 5.X versions which is available in app store is not compatible with the 10.7. Xcode4.5.1 cltools is compatible.
Older versions are difficult to locate and after quite a lot of search inside developer.apple.com located the Older versions of Xcode here
I have an app that needs to be run on MAC OS X 10.5,10.6,10.7
I'm using XCode 4.02 and iOS SDK 4.3. My build settings are 10.6 MAC OS X, and Deployment target is 10.5.
Is this the right way to do it, or I should use the Mac OS X 10.5 SDK? I can't find it, I have only 10.6.
Right now my application runs on 10.5, but not properly.
If you are a serious apple developer, you should upgrade to Lion. You should also be using the latest SDK, OSX 10.7 that comes bundled with the latest version of XCode 4.2.X (It's free from the MAC APP Store). If you need to have your app run on previous versions of OSX, the correct way to do this is to set the "Deployment Target" (found in the build settings) to 10.5.
XCode/SDK updates are just like any other software update, they contain bug fixes and more importantly security patches, so you should ALWAYS be using the latest versions.
Is there an easy way to install / download the Mac OS X 10.5 SDK on Snow Leopard?
I have Xcode 4.0 installed via the Mac App Store. I can also download it from the developer site if necessary but I don't know if it includes the 10.5 SDK.
I need the 10.5 SDK for building Android. It is a hard requirement stated in the docs. I tried symlinking to the 10.6 SDK but that didn't work.
(Perhaps it would be OK to get the SDK from an older Mac that is actually running 10.5 and has an older version of Xcode installed? Would that work?)
The 10.5 sdk is not available for XCode 4.0. You will need to keep XCode 3.2.6 if you need it.
There is a solution to install the Mac OS X SDK 10.5 on Snow Leopard shown here:
How to add base SDK for 10.5 in xCode 4
Basically, you can run the MacOSX10.5.pkg from an Xcode 3 installer and install the SDK into an Xcode 4 install.
