I need to be iOS SDK 4.3. How can i change my sdk? may be you have links on same problem? Thanx
In the project settings there are two fields called Base SDK and Deployment Target. Your Base SDK should be latest available (currently 6.0) and your Deployment Target can be the desired version (4.3).
Go to Preference And Check Whether The iOS SDK 4.3 is installed or Not or else you can download and install.
Xcode-> Preferences-> Downloads
Here you can see the List of available Downloads. then click on install.
After Download installation finish Just Restart X-code.
Then Select your deployment target.
Project --> info-->iOS Deployment target
Targets-->Summary-->Deployment target
Select the desired SDK.

I am running on MacOS Sierra. I downloaded/upgraded my X Code.
Currently, if I run xcodebuild -showsdks it reveals that I have iOS SDK 10.0.
I need to add support for iOS 9.3. How do I do this?
Do I need to download XCode 7.3?
EDIT:
I need iOS SDK 9.3 specifically -- no version after, because of RubyMotion.
iOS 9.3 is still supported with Xcode 8. There shouldn't be any issues.
For anything less than iOS 8, you will have to download Xcode 7 series.
No need for older Xcode. Just open your project, open projects settings, choose your target and change "General -> Deployment Info -> Deployment Target" to needed value (e.g. 9.3)
Update for your edit: yes, to get older SDK version you need to download older Xcode, unfortunately
You can check by downloading simulator of iOS 9 only, Go to xcode preference and download required simulator, check screenshot below:
I'm trying to build my Xamarin Forms app for the Apple store using Xamarin Studio on my MacBook. This worked fine until recently.
The only options available to me on the SDK version dropdown on the iOS Build tab are Default and 8.3. If I build using either of these and try to upload to the store I get the following error:
ERROR ITMS-90068: "This bundle is invalid. The value provided for the
key MinimumOSVersion '8.3' is not acceptable."
I guess this is due to updating all Xamarin and Xcode components to their latest versions recently.
I'm trying to figure out how to get the 8.2 SDK back.
I tried downloading the iOS 8.2 Simulator from Xcode > Preferences > Downloads but that doesn't seem to have added anything in the Xamarin SDK version dropdown.
Any ideas?
You're confusing the SDK version used to build your app with and the minimum iOS version your app requires.
It's perfectly possible to build an app using the iOS 8.3 SDK and target iOS 5.1.1 for instance.
You need to set the minimum iOS version for your app instead of changing the SDK version; this is done in the project's iOS Application options, by setting Deployment Target to your app's minimum iOS version.
This is what I did to resolve the issue:
Right click on the .iOS project > Options
Set Build > iOS Build > Link behaviour to Link Framework SDKs Only.
How to ensure that we are not using latest SDK API?
lets say you have iOs 5.0 SDK installed, but you are developing app for iOS 4.0, how can we ensure that we accidentally dont use any latest API that would break backward compatibility?
You have to set the right deployment target on Xcode and build against the latest SDK.
Search for iOS Deployement Target setting on Build Settings tab within PROJECTS -> YourName. This will also change that setting on TARGETS -> YourName.
For further reference see Apple doc.
As hotpaw2 wrote in this stackoverflow topic
They won't be able to install and run the app (until they upgrade the
OS on their device to that of the Deployment Target or above). But
they might be able to buy and download the app using iTunes on their
Mac or PC.
Hope it helps.
Trying to set target's base sdk to iphone4 (3.2 on the screenshot) and build the project:
I want to change my iOS SDK. I have ios 5 and xcode 4.2 but I have to decrease it to iOS 4.2 SDK because of my application. In developer.apple.com the xcode 4.1 with iOS 5 so it is not available. How can I find xcode 4.1 with ios sdk 4.2 or how can I setup the ios sdk 4.2 without download xcode again. If it is not possible can you give me a linq for download xcode 4.1 with ios sdk 4.2
The base SDK should be the currently available one - it's the version of the SDK that you have installed to compile against.
However, further down the settings list you'll see that you can set the "Deployment Target" to be for lower versions iOS. That's the one that specifies the lower version of the OS that you app will run on.
Latest SDK included all required features from previous SDK versions. You shouldn't worry about it. If you want to support previous versions of iOS just set iOS Deployment Target to iOS 4.2 (or another would you like) in project settings at Build Settings tab.
I just set up a new macbook pro, installed xcode and the latest iphone SDK; However, I have an iPhone app that needs to target the 2.0 SDK.
I have 2.2.1, 3.0, and 3.1 available in xcode, but for the life of me cannot figure out where to get 2.0. I have scoured the iPhone Dev Center without any luck.
The latest SDK allows you to target older versions.
You specify the SDK Xcode uses to build your application in your project’s Base SDK build setting, which you can set in:
Project > Edit Project Settings > Base SDK for all Configurations

Read this Apple page for more info.
I think it comes with the current X-Code but its only optional on installation. I could be wrong, I just installed X-Code last week and I think there were older SDKs available.
