I recently reinstalled my mac. Tried installing Xcode from a backup installer I had (xcode_3.2.5_and_ios_sdk_4.2_final.dmg). It stopped in between asking me to stop iTunes. Did that but the prompt refused to go off. So I was forced to terminate the installer forcefully. (only later did I find out that you had to stop the ituneshelper process from the activity monitor)
Restarted the machine and tried the installation again. The installation when through fine but I was unable to find the Xcode executable anywhere. So I installed it again… no go. Finally I deleted the developer folder and tried it again. Didnt work.
Whats wrong? How do I fix this?
Bit the bullet and downloaded Xcode from the app store. Installed perfectly.
