You can download it from the Xcode preference dialog on the download tab. – rckoenes Oct 10 '14 at 08:34

3Why do you need to the 7 SDK, just compile with the 8 SDK and set the deployment target to 7. – rckoenes Oct 10 '14 at 08:40

Or if you really need to, download Xcode 5 and use that. – Anorak Oct 10 '14 at 08:49

Xcode 6 does not pack the iOS 7 SDK but the iOS 8 SDK. There is a way to make Xcode 6 work with the iOS 7 SDK, as @David commented.
But if all you want is to support iOS 7 & iOS 8, all you need is to set your project's minimum target to iOS 7. If you want to test on the iOS 7 Simulator, you can download it it the Downloads section of Xcode's Preferences window.

There IS a way to make Xcode 6 recognise the iOS 7 SDK, as this answer clearly shows: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24045307/is-it-possible-to-install-ios-7-sdk-on-xcode-6 – David Ganster Dec 06 '14 at 20:00

I believe you meant to say the iOS7 simulator
: this can be downloaded within the Downloads
section of XCode preferences no need to download a previous version of XCode
. You simply need then to set your deployment target to iOS7 within your project setting (General Section
).
