What is 'install Xcode' vs. xcode for leopard dmg?

I just downloaded and installed xcode 4.1 for Snow Leopard.
I noticed that I have "Install Xcode" in my Application folder (4.66gb),
in addition to the downloaded 4.1 dmg and 3.2.2 dmg and 3.2.5 dmg files.
What is "Install xcode" ?
I thought the dmg files are the installation packages - why do I need "Install xcode" ?
Thanks!

So let me be clear:
"install xcode" in the Applications folder is the same as the installer dmg files?
Which would mean that I could delete any/all of them (after installing the version I need) with no loss?
Now you're it!

  • I can't (re)install Xcode for Snow Leopard

    After deinstalling of Xcode for Snow Leopard, when I try to install it again in AppStore I get 2 error messages, the first one is "This item is temporarily unavailable. / Please try again." and the scond one is "We could not complete your request. / There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (100)". I really need the Xcode and... what I've paid my $$$ for if I can't get the purchase?

    It looks like Apple forcing our moving to Lion.
    It's not good thing at all and for me specially. I have some software that aren't compartible with Lion so I can't move to it right now.
    So far, so less I like AppStore for Mac. The iPad/iPhone version of AppStore has no such problems, why the Mac's one has? Ugrh

    I contacted App Store support and they gave me my money back, so that's something, but what I really want is Xcode 4 for Snow Leopard.

  • Cannot install XCode for Snow Leopard from the Appstore.

    So... I reinstalled OSX, mainly for the fact I wanted to... but now I'm trying to reinstall my Apps from the App Store, specificly XCode4, which is now titled "XCode for Snow Leopard" in my purchased apps... But I cannot download/install it. I get an "This is not available error" followed by a Error 100...
    Apple tech support is being utterly useless for this. Any ideas?

    Xcode ( 4.1.1) on the AppStore is now only for Lion.
    On the Developer Portal you can still access the freely available 3.2.6 package even without being a paying Apple Developer ( need only a Apple-ID to connect to the Mac Developer Portal for normal Users ) . 4.x was a paid app, so it is not accesible for average users from there nor from AppStore.

  • Problems installing Xcode for building iPhone applications

    Just got a mac mini today for building iphone applications. I'm new to macs.
    Downloaded the iPhone SDK. Installed it. But I saw there are a lot of
    packages. Do I need to install them all? I've installed the iPhone ones.
    When I launch Xcode I get the 'Welcome to Xcode 3.1', which just looks like
    a lot of tutorials. How do I run the Xcode application to build iPhone apps?
    Cheers,
    John.

    you just install XCode and it will install ALL packages, the packages that you see are to be installed one by one for expert users or users that want to have a the newest packages.
    Remember: Install the iPhone SDK 2.2
    you just go to menu and click File > New Project > iPhone and choose the type of project for the iPhone that you want to use, WebApp, UIApp, etc ...
    because you are new to the MAC world and probably never used Objective-C in your live, it is good to start somewhere first, buy a good book of the subject, start with the language (Objective-C) them learn about the framework (Cocoa Touch) and then read all about XCode.
    In the meanwhile you can check several websites to start knowing what you going to be able to do one day, here are some examples:
    - Writing your first iPhone application (payed movies, first for free)
    - iPhone Developer Central
    - Apps Amuck
    - iPhone SDK Articles
    remember that you will need to apply to the iPhone Developer Program in order to submit your SDK Apps to the Apple AppStore.
    Updated: You can find several movies on YouTube on how to start building apps to the iPhone, but the most seams to do a bad job cause they are screen casting the entire desktop rather the area that we need, so text will be unreadable on such dimensions.

  • XCode for Leopard

    Hi,
    I just got my new MacBook Pro. It came with pre-installed OSX 10.5.7 and a Snow Leopard DVD in the box.
    I've tried to download XCode from the Apple site, but all I can get is XCode 3.2 intended for Snow Leopard only. I'm not upgrading for now, so I'm looking for XCode 3.1 (which should work on my OS) but I cannot find it nowhere in the site. Any help?

    Hello pistacchio,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Just do a simple google search for XCode 3.1 and you should recieve a plethora of sites that can help point you to the right direction for downloading this older version.
    Use could use this link below, then enter your Apple Member Information, then proceed to download this version.

    Hope this helps.

  • Can I install OS X Server for Leopard on Macs running non-server Tiger?

    I need to install OS X Server on a small business network of 5 Macs and 2 pc's. I need to run Mac software on the pc's using Aqua and need to use the pc's to run software that won't run on the Macs.
    All my Macs run 10.4.11 (non-server), so what I need to know is will I be able to buy and install OS X Server (Leopard)? Or do I need to buy OS X Server (Tiger)?
    And if I can use the Leopard Server version, can I also install it on my Macs at home that don't connect to the work network?
    Thanks, Ted

    I'm a little confused here.
    I need to run Mac software on the pc's using Aqua
    Running Mac OS X Server on the Macs won't help here. You can't run Mac software on a PC. The best you can do is screen-share (so the PC can run software that lets it see and control the Mac's screen), but you don't need Mac OS X Server for that.
    All my Macs run 10.4.11 (non-server), so what I need to know is will I be able to buy and install OS X Server (Leopard)? Or do I need to buy OS X Server (Tiger)?
    You can't but Mac OS X Server 10.4 at all now. It's been EOL for a year or more (I forget when Leopard was released now). Your only option is to buy Leopard Server.
    As to whether you can install Leopard Server, that depends on the hardware you're running. If it meets (or exceeds) the minimum specifications for Mac OS X Server then yes, you can install it. Whether it will solve your goals depends on quite what those goals are.
    And if I can use the Leopard Server version, can I also install it on my Macs at home that don't connect to the work network?
    You can install it on any system you're licensed for. Since each copy of Mac OS X Server is licensed for a single system only, you'll need to buy additional licenses for your machine(s) at home.

  • Install Xcode from Appstore. Shows "Installing. 3 minutes remaining."

    Hi,
    Trying to install Xcode (for iOS 7) from Appstore.
    Latest Mac OS X also is installed. Only Xcode shows "Installing. 3 minutes remaining."
    From then on, nothing happens.
    Any help please?

    I'd quit the Mac App Store then look in /Applications to see if there is a file called Xcode. If so drag it to the trash then reboot and try loading it again.
    Post back if you still have the problem.
    regards

  • Simple question - system requirements for Leopard

    What are the minimum system requirements for Leopard? Can I install it on a G4 PowerBook?
    Presumably I can no longer buy Leopard from Apple? Where can I get hold of a copy (in the UK)?
    Thanks

    Call the online Apple Store. Though they don't list Leopard on the web site, they probably still have it for sale.

  • What is the latest version of XCode for Snow Leopard?

    I have XCode 4.0.2 for Snow Leopard installed.  Is that the latest version available for Snow Leopard?
    Is Apple pushing us to upgrade to Lion to get a version newer than 4.0.2.  I see that XCode 4.2 is available for Lion.
    David.

    This information might be useful for those who are not members of the $99/year iOS Developer Program.  I am not a member, I have Snow Leopard, and I purchased Xcode 4.0 for $5 from the Mac App Store in March 2011.  Just for fun I searched the app store for Xcode.  As expected, the only search result is Xcode 4.2 with stated minimum requirement 10.7 (Lion).  I am curious why it even shows Snow Leopard users the active Free button that implies I can download it.  I don't know how the app store works but I assume it would not let me install this on 10.6 Snow Leopard.
    But the Purchased view shows Xcode for Snow Leopard.  I noticed the button on the right showed Update rather than Installed.  Clicking the item name to find details including the version number shows Your request could not be completed.  I decided to update in hopes this would be 4.2.  I deleted Install Xcode from my Applications folder, restarted the App Store, then pressed the Update button.  1.77GB later I have Install Xcode in my Applications folder, preview shows version 4.2 (used to show 4.0.2), 
    The installer just finished running, I now have Xcode 4.2 build 4C199.  About Xcode.pdf in the Developer folder starts with Developer tools for Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard and iOS 5.  So this is clearly not exactly the same as Xcode 4.2 for Lion.  It does include the iOS 5 SDK, LLVM 3.0, etc.  Not sure what is different in the Lion build.

  • I've paid $ 3,99 for Xcode for Snow Leopard. Now there is a new Xcode for Lion, so I downloaded the new one but the installed continued to be the old one. Now App Store says "Installed" and don't allow me to re-download Xcode. How can I proceed?

    I've paid $ 3,99 for Xcode for Snow Leopard 12 days ago. After installing Lion I saw there is a new FREE Xcode for it, so I downloaded the new one but after installing automatically Xcode for Lion the Developer folder contained the old one. I deleted the old Xcode but the App Store says "Installed" and don't allow me re-download Xcode.
    How can I proceed? I'm guessing whether this problem will occur each time I buy an application from App Store.

    Yes, that's righ, Xcode installer was in the Apps folder. I assumed it had been automatically installed and the installer deleted after installation (the same way as Lion is installed).
    I tried also the procedure for redownloding applications, and MAS showed both Xcodes (Lion and Snow Leopard) and OS X Lion. We see that buttons for Lion and Xcode for Snow Leopard say 'Install' but Xcode for Lion says 'installed' because there is an Install Scode in the Apps folder.
    Thank you.

    Hello friends
    I was wondering what version of xcode may be installed on a powerpc PowerBook G4 laptop with Mac OS X 10.4.11. What version would work on it? Where may I find it? I use the X11 package a lot. 
    Thanks a lot!

    You can download it for free from the Apple Developer Connection web site, but you have to have a membership. Go to this page:
    http://developer.apple.com/products/
    Scroll down to the bottom of the page and the bottom right choice is the free online membership. Once you're signed up, you can log in and Download the Xcode tools. There will probably be several to choose from, including Xcode 3 and Xcode 2.5, so make sure you get the right one.

    All,
    A very interesting NOTE to this thread. In order to try and get the "ignore permissions" box to show up in GET INFO (so I could execute Matt the Magician's solution to file sharing issues)-- I ran the terminal command for disabling ACLs on my internal HD / start up disk (as indicated in the linked thread to BDAqua's forum).
    Although I understand that this was useless for disabling permissions on the start up disk (as everyone here pointed out) and allowing me to see the "ignore permissions" check box - somehow it did seem to fix my file sharing problem...and that was the root problem I wanted solved in the first place! After doing the terminal command and a quick reboot, I went in and tested file sharing on the chosen directory and I can create new files or work from existing files in the directory, with both users being able to modify / and save from both machines and each machine sees the revisions and can build from them. Bottom line - I'm stoked and want to thank everyone for their help.
    The only other tweak I made was going over to my wife's machine and instead of using her log in / password, I just used my name and password to connect to my main machine that was sharing directories. Maybe that's what fixed the problem or the ACL disable but either way...I'm up and running the way I want to be.
    Hope this thread helps anyone else who has these file sharing / permissions issues with Leopard. Especially for anyone wanting to do such a simple file sharing set up between 2 computers. I wish I understood exactly which tweak fixed the problem, but at least it works the way I want now.
    So happy to be done w/this one!
    Thx everyone. Any additional input on what solved it is welcome, so my curiosity is quelled...
