How can I install the new iOS SDK on Xcode 5?

Question

How can I install the new iOS SDK on Xcode 5 to be able to compile applications for the new iOS on Xcode 5? I've tried to use iTunes to transfer compiled applications to the device. But it doesn't work any more.

Edit

I've tried to copy SDK folders from xCode 6 to xCode 5 as described on here. But, it doesn't work because of an issue with ibtool during compilation process

Answer 1

If you are trying iOS8 you can't use anything less than Xcode 6 beta.

Answer 2

Yes you can.

If you're using Mavericks and want to continue using Xcode 5, do these steps:

• Rename Xcode.app to Xcode 5.app
• Download and copy Xcode 6 to Applications-Folder, and rename it to Xcode 6.app
• and...

Execute this command in Terminal:

sudo ln -s /Applications/Xcode\ 6.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/8.0\ \(12A365\)/ /Applications/Xcode\ 5.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/8.0\ \(12A365\)
