Why isn't AppCode 3.0 is not letting me select Base SDK = iOS 7.1 with the lastest Xcode 6.0 beta?

Question

I've always been building and targetting my application for iOS 7.1.

With a recent upgrade of AppCode to 3.0, When I installed the latest Xcode 6.0-beta, I noticed something strange happening in AppCode. All the simulator devices were set to use iOS 8.0 despite my project settings not saying so in Xcode (value is set to iphoneos; which means Latest iOS SDK).

I try to configure the Base SDK in project settings, but I don't get a lot of choices:

What do I do here to set it back to iOS 7.1?

Answer 1

This might be, because you have set Appcode 3.0 to work against Xcode 6. And in Xcode 6 you havn't already downloaded the 7.1 simulator.

The fix is, to go to Xcode 6-> Preferences-> Downloads and download the Simulator 7.1. Then it should work (you of course also need a project with deployment target iOS 7.x)

Or: switch back AppCode to wirk against Xcode 5 in Preferences->Xcode on the right side you can switch back to Xcode 5.x.
