I tried getting Xcode but a message said I need 10.7.3 or higher. I updated my Mac, and turns out 10.6.8 is as high as it will go. So do I need to dish out the $29.99 to get OS X Lion first?

I run 4.2 on Snow Leopard. Mark Comments If you join the Apple Developer program, you can download previous versions of Xcode. I run 4.2 on Snow Leopard. Mark

Lots of kids do the whole process in their parents names put in their names as the developer. Comments If I were you, legally, I would get my parent's permission first.

Bennyd23 Lost but trying Posts: 4 Reg: Jun 11, 2012 Perth 4,540	06/26/12 07:25 AM (13 years ago) Was wondering if there is any way of downloading xcode 4.2 for snow leopard without creating an apple developer account? I will eventually fork out the $99 for membership but would prefer to have a bit better understanding of what I'm doing and have had a few trial runs first Thanks Comments Was wondering if there is any way of downloading xcode 4.2 for snow leopard without creating an apple developer account?

munny1 Veteran developer Posts: 176 Reg: Jun 20, 2012 Earth 8,010	06/26/12 07:43 AM (13 years ago) @Bennyd if you are not upgraded to Lion and you don't want to upgrade, then you may be able to google for a free 4.2 download. But if you wants to do it the "right" way, then you have to shell out $99 for the Apple Developer Program, where you can download previous versions of Xcode.

Sounds like a lot less trouble so I will do it that way, was just thinking it will probably take me a year or more to create anything worth publishing lol. Thanks Comments Ok cheers.
