I am developing an app with Xcode 4.0.2 and iOS 4.3. Now I would like to upgrade to Xcode 4.2 and iOS 5 so that I could make my app ready when iOS 5 releases in October.

I am told by Apple’s website that I should not submit apps that are built by Xcode 4.2 and should do it with the older Xcode 4.0.2, since the Xcode 4.2 and iOS 5 thing is still in beta.

But in the following few weeks I still need to have newer versions of my app submitted to App Store. So my question is,

  1. If I upgrade my Xcode to 4.2, is it possible for me to switch back to Xcode 4.0.2?
  2. If yes, how?

Thanks in advance!

    You can simply install two versions of Xcode at the same time. During the installation it will let you choose the destination folder; you can pick another folder. For example, I use /Developer/Xcode (4.2). (However, if you did install 4.2 over 4.0.2, I don’t think you would have a problem if you just ran the 4.0.2 installer again to downgrade.)
