how to run ios6 simulator in xcode5?

Question

I upgraded my xcode to xcode5，In the directory

/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs I got iPhoneOS6.1.sdk/ and iPhoneOS7.0.sdk/

In the directory /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs I got iPhoneSimulator6.0.sdk/和iPhoneSimulator7.0.sdk/

Every time when I ran my app, I can't select the version of the iOS, nor can I select I resolution other than retina. The Xcode5 always use a retina resolution with iOS7:

But what I want to use is the low resolution with iOS6, how could I do? ps: I have set the following settings to iOS6.1

General -> Deployment Target

Build Setting -> Base SDK

I did have downloaded the iOS 6.0 simulator, but I do not have option to use that.

Answer 1

With iOS 6.0 and iOS 6.1 simulator both installed, the problem got solved!

Answer 2

Answer 3

Download Xcode 4.6 dmg file from the apple dev center.

Double click dmg file. Mount it. After then you can automatically use the simulator 6.

Alternatively you can also add the simulator 6 from the Xcode 5 also. But the base SDK will remain 7.0 for Xcode 5.

Answer 4

Go to Xcode preference and install the simulators

Answer 5

Go to Xcode5 preference and install the simulators
