can you still build applications you made from SDK 4 to an updated iOS 5 device?
without having to update to the beta version of XCode (4.2)?
Or maybe, Will it be okay also if I will just have two versions of XCode?
Thanks
You need to update to Xcode 4.2 to get the latest version of the iOS SDK. I'm not sure if you can use the iOS 5 SDK with Xcode 4.1; maybe if you update your compiler to clang 3.0.
Of course, you can always run iOS 4 apps on iOS 5 devices.

When we used this script in the post-action of the archive in my scheme to make a FAT binary framework. i.e., One that will work on the simulator and actual device. Its working fine up to Xcode 9.3 But its not working script for Xcode 10.
As per blogs we don't have universal framework support for Xcode 10. Please let us know how to achieve this from Xcode 10.
Thanks,
Now that Swift 2.2 / iOS 9.3 / watchOS 2.2 is out, can I update an app using Xcode 7.3 and still work on a iOS 9.2 device?
For example, if I started using #selector(someFunc) instead of selector("someFunc"), will this crash on a iOS 9.2 device?
iOS SDK is maintained to be backward-compatible (though I don't know, how far back). You can take a look at page SDK Compatibility Guide, Base SDK and Deployment Target Settings to read about "Base SDK" and "Deployment Target" project settings.
The latest language version (either Swift or Objective-C) can also be used with older iOS versions, because, no matter what the language is, the compiler will generate effectively the same machine-code at the end. There could be nuances like lack of some OS features (e.g. ARC is fully supported starting from iOS 5, though it's pretty much compiler/language feature).
It may be also interesting to read Xcode 7.3 Release Notes to get the list of new features and changes. This document does not states that some older iOS versions are no more supported.
We are trying to integrate Xtify SDK in our iPhone and iPad apps for receiving PUSH notifications and when we use tried, we are getting linker errors. I believe the Xtify SDK is not compiled with the arm64 architecture and that is the reason we are getting this error. Can anyone confirm this?
Thanks!
Later iOS Xtify library versions are compiled with the standard architectures (armv7 and arm64 - but not armv7s, which is no longer standard as of Xcode 6 - see Xcode 6 Standard architectures exclude armv7s). You will need to use version 2.74 or higher to compile on Xcode 6.x.
I'm having a weird and intermittent issue where my UINavigationBar is showing iOS 6 style. The app was originally created in Xcode 4.3 but I can't seem to pin down what makes it use the old style. Is there any definitive way to ensure that this is taken care of?
In your target build settings make sure you use the latest SDK (7.0) as base sdk.
A read similar questions but related to Beta version of Xcode, my doubt is wired to the last version of Xcode (4.3) that seems to be too buggy at the moment!
I rather use Xcode 4.2 but I'm not sure I can submit apps with this version! Is the last version of Xcode a requirement to send app to Apple ?
Where I can read something about that ? Apple documentation didn't help me.
You can still submit apps with xCode 4.2 . Only beta version of xCode cannot submit apps.
