I have a fresh installation of Xcode 4.5. It doesn't come with iOS 5.0 simulator. I have downloaded a copy of ios_50_simulator.dmg file.

I mounted the .dmg file in OSX, and perform installation directly. However, the iOS 5.0 simulator doesn't install in my Xcode 4.5 apps.

Any ideas?

Open "Preferences" window in Xcode, navigate to Downloads - Components. You can install iOS 5.0 Simulator there.

  • I already have .dmg file. I don't want to download the file again. Can I perform offline installation? – Chau Chee Yang Sep 27 '12 at 06:56
  • I don't think that this installation method is valid anymore. – borrrden Sep 27 '12 at 07:12
  • @borrrden: I think there must be some where to deploy offline. As I have few workstations to install the simulator and my internet bandwidth is slow. Perform offline installing is viable solution for my situation. – Chau Chee Yang Sep 27 '12 at 07:18

    Find where it got installed (I assume it is using Xcode 4.2 locations), you need to look inside the Xcode application -> Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs and there should be various SDK folders there. I don't know what the inside of the DMG file looks like because it is not available for download anymore (hence, not valid) but try to find a folder that looks like that and copy it. – borrrden Sep 27 '12 at 07:49
