i have built my app using xcode 4, & its working fine on ios 3.1.3 device if i set my deployment target to 3.1.3 , it is working fine ios 4 and if i set the deployment target to 4 ,my doubt is while uploading to app store what deployment target should i set?????
thanks in advance
The answer is YES and NO.
YES: Because it will run on iOS 3.1.3 for the APIs and methods supported till 3.1.3
NO: Because it will not support the APIs introduced in iOS versions > 3.1.3
Example: If you integrate SMS functionality as it was introduced in iOS 4.0

i changed the base sdk for iOS 6.1 in xcode 5 .
When i simulate my project on a iOS 6.1 simulator or on a iOS 6.1 device
all works fine. But when i build a ipa and install it on a iOS 7 device
the device use the iOS 7 sdk and my hole app looks weird. I changed my base
sdk for iOS 6.1, so why use my device the iOS 7 sdk?
I read that iOS 7 use the iOS 6.1 sdk for old published apps.
What do i have to do that iOS 7 also do that for my app?
My only idea is to install xcode 4 again...
I have experienced the same problem - unfortunately only discovered AFTER submitting to the app store and the app being approved and released, causing all sorts of mayhem due to interface glitches.
The issue occurs due to a bug in XCode 5 (including in XCode 5.0.2 it seems) that is triggered when you install older SDKs.
When you have multiple SDKs installed, you will see that when you connect your device to XCode, there are multiple entries for your device, with no way to tell them apart. But it appears that the TOP entry is for the OLDEST SDK you have installed, the BOTTOM one for the NEWEST SDK.
I have found that if I first use "Test" project option to run the app on the device with the SDK I want to use (in my case the top entry, which is for iOS6.1 SDK), then that is the SDK that will subsequently be used when I archive the app.
You can have both xcode 5 and 4.6.3 installed.
Also a lot of post say that in the simulator it look iOS7 but on device it will look iOS6.1 if you set the base sdk to 6.1

Is it possible to install iOS 6 SDK on Xcode 5?
Do apple allow custom iOS 5/6 style UI for iOS7?
I am doing iphone project, in that am using ODataProtocol, but i can't able to find the Odatagen library for iOS 6. I taken OData4ObjC Zip file, in that Frameworks are Upto iOS 4.3 libraries are there.. how can i use that Odata libraries in my app for iOS 6. Is it possible?? When you will update the latest version of libraries.
They just uploaded de IOS 6 framework https://github.com/ElizabethDuncan/OData4ObjC, hope this helps you
I need to build app for distribution via app store.
Application is tested and working on iOS 5.0, 5.1 and 6.0.
Do I need to build different archives for each iOS version (change iOS Deployment Target setting for each build)?
Is there any difference to compiled output when I change iOS Deployment Target setting?
You just need to do one build with the lowest iOS version you want to support, and then you go through all the upload process.
Basically the SDK version you are using is highest iOS version it will run and Deployment Target is the lowest.
So set your Deployment Target to 5.0, compile using iOS SDK 6.0 (you don't have any other option, though) and that's it. Submit to the App Store.
I don't know if there are some differences in binary when changing Deployment Target, but there are some during compilation for sure. For example when you set it to iOS 6, you may get deprecation warnings from the latest API changes.
I'm developing an iOS App which targets iOS 5.1+. I'm using XCode 4.5 on Mac OS X 10.8 and I do own an iPhone 4 with iOS 5.1.1. The app needs OpenCV, which I have successfully built from sources according to a tutorial in the OpenCV-Documentation.
Here is what happens:
When I start up the application I get an exception:
dyld: Symbol not found: _objc_setProperty_nonatomic
The error does not occur with iOS 6, but with iOS 5.1 in both the simulator and on a real device.
What is that? Is it related to OpenCV? Does it have to do something with incompatibilities between iOS / the iPhone / XCode??
EDIT: My development target is set to 5.1. The Base SDK is 6.0. I copied an SDK für 4.3 (which is the lowest version that XCode 4.5 will support) from another Mac and set development target as well as the base SDK to 4.3. Did not work either (it did not even build then).
I did not an update, the project has been started from scratch using XCode 4.5 initially.
Meanwhile I also found a tip to use gnulibc++ instead of libc++, but that also resulted in that the project did not build at all.
I built a test project and found the same issue. OpenCV is being built with a deployment target of ios6, this is a known issue, and a fix is pending review, see https://github.com/Itseez/opencv/pull/70
I'm unable to install an application on my iPhone 3G using the latest version of Xcode.
My settings look like this:
What's wrong? I thought setting the deployment target would be all I need to do.
i had to add "armv6" (without quotes) to the Architectures in my Built Settings.
works fine. thank you
