Xcode 5 - How to change copyright format

Question

I have been looking for this answer and have found a lot of information for changing the company name, etc. But only one that answered how to completely reformat this block of information. Unfortunately the information is dated now and I cannot seem to get it to work. The files I tried are locked. Perhaps someone out there can tell me how to do this in Xcode 5?

//
//  ___FILENAME___
//  ___PACKAGENAME___
//
//  Created by ___FULLUSERNAME___ on ___DATE___.
//  Copyright (c) ___YEAR___ ___ORGANIZATIONNAME___. All rights reserved.
//

I would like to change the format to Java Doc style. Something like this:

/**
 *  ___FILENAME___
 *  ___PACKAGENAME___
 *
 *  Created by ___FULLUSERNAME___ on ___DATE___.
 *  Copyright (c) ___YEAR___ ___ORGANIZATIONNAME___. All rights reserved.
 */

Yes, I saw this and referenced it in my original question.

That is the only one that came close by showing how to completely reformat this block. Only I think it may not work anymore. I tried to change the block but was locked out of editing. Perhaps there is something I am missing for Xcode 5 or Apple has added a new configuration for this? Still outstanding question waiting for an answer.

Good and very common question. XCode keeps changing all the time. — Dmitry Konovalov, Oct 28 '14 at 23:54

its simple in Xcode5

select project file from project navigator on the left side

then look at the right side utilities navigator, select file navigator

now 2nd group should be "project document"

now overwrite "Organization" field

I found it, but struggled a bit. Images would make the answer nicer. :) – Olie Jul 16 '14 at 22:23

Don't edit the original, make a copy and put it in you own ~/Library folder in an equivalent path. Google Xcode templates to get more information.

Just go to your LaunchScreen.xib and update the text of that copyright label to whatever you like...
