Hi,
Ran into a problem recently. I have several sub-versions of Xcode's main version installed: for the purpose of simplification let's take one of them for version A (with iOS AA) and another for version B (iOS BB) from the oldest to the newest one respectively. I noticed a very odd behavior regardless of what hardware I simulate, iPhone or iPad: when I launch iOS Simulator of version A (iOS AA) I get its UI elements stalled and no response to physical input. iOS Simulator of Version B (iOS BB) doesn't exhibit such a problem. If I have the latter launched even once and then launch iOS Simulator of version A (iOS AA) I see that the plist in ~/Library/user_account/Preferences for that version of Simulator isn't created, with Version B (iOS BB) Simulator plist sitting there not overwritten by Version A (iOS AA) Simulator. It's when the splash screen gets frozen. If I delete the plist and launch Version A iOS Simulator again the problem goes away.
I think filing a bug report is not much of help since the Xcodes I use are below the supported ones. That's why I would like to ask whether some of you have dealt with this and if yes what could I do about that (if applicable)?
P.S. For additional clarification if needed.
Version A - v.4.4.1
Version B - v.4.6.3
iOS AA - iOS 5.1 (Simulator Build 272.21)
iOS BB - iOS 6.1 (Simulator Build 369.2)
