LiveCode Forums.

I gave up trying to use LiveCode for quite a while. Yes, it was a big expense for me, but I find other frameworks/languages seem to flow better for me. Still, I'd like to be able to use what I paid for, so today, I decided to give LiveCode another try. I bought LiveCode specifically for Android/iOS development, but I would like to use it for Mac Desktop and Windows eventually. That is, if I can ever get started with it. <sigh> I'm not a great programmer, but I have several hybrid apps in the Apple Store and I'm porting them over to Android now.

My problem today is that I can't get Livecode preferences to recognize the Xcode sdks. I am running Mac OS Sierra with Xcode 8.1. Xcode is located in my Applications/ Xcode.app. I receive the following message from Livecode preferences when I try to direct it to my installation of Xcode:

The chosen folder does not have a valid iOS SDK...

I've looked at the documents. The only thing that I can think of is that LiveCode doesn't support Xcode 8.1/Sierra,but I doubt that would be true so I'm asking for someone who may know the answer.

Thank you for your help.

Hi Rachel,

what Thiery said, always check the "Release Notes" to see the latest comaptibility
of LC and Xcode.

Please try the new LC 8.1.2 RC1, which is compatible with the latest Xcode 8.1.x:
