How to find and install sdk to get Simulator working.

I get an error message that says need some kind of iosiphone file to run the simulator. (No way to copy and paste the error message)

Any ideas?

Hi Max,

I read the document for downloading the SDK. It did not help. It said:

You have to log into the iOS Dev Center and follow the link to downloads, from where you can download the latest iOS SDK. This download includes a number of iOS simulators on which you can test your applications. The SDK integrates with Xcode, allowing you to deploy to real devices.

If you are using Lion (10.7.x), you can also get the latest version of Xcode (which includes the iOS SDK) from the Mac App Store.


THis was confusing, THere is nothing clear about what to click on, or how to use the MAc App Store.


Help. Max

Hi Max,
Do you have an Apple developer licence?
You need to get one to download Xcode.

The process for developing for iOS is difficult, so take it slowly and follow all the instructions.

Yes, this was after I logged in.

I downloaded iPad3,1_6.1_10B141_Restore.ipsw, also, the newest version of xcode, which includes the latest ios sdk.

This does not help. How do I get the simulator working? Anybody?

Thanks, Max

It turns out the latest version of xcode is not yet compatible. So I found an older version and it works now.
