iOS OS versions confusion

[mattpryor]

Hello all,

I'm fairly new to Mac development and iPhone programming. Currently working my way through "Beginning iPhone Development" by Apress.

Here's the problem, which I would be very grateful to have some assistance with:

I've just upgraded XCode to 3.2.1. My iPhone is on version 3.1.2 (7D11)

When I try to build and run a new project I get the following error pop up:

Can't install application

The info.plist for application at ....... specifies a minimum OS version of 3.1.3, which is too high to be installed on Matt's iPhone.

I've gone into the project settings and set the Base SDK for all configurations to be "iPhone Device 3.1.2" under General.

Under the "Build" tab the iPhone OS Deployment Target is set to iPhone OS 3.1.2.

Please could someone nudge me in the right direction of what else needs to be configured? I'm sure it's something simple but I'm at a loss.

Thanks very much in advance.

If anyone's interested in how I fixed this, I changed the "Bundle version" in info.plist from 1.0 to 1.7 and it seemed to work fine.

I've no idea why this is the case - seems to have nothing to do with the OS version - but I took the value from a plist file for a project that I knew worked and it did the trick.

I believe the only requirement is that you edit and resave the info.plist file. I editted to 1.7, saved, and then back to 1.0 and it worked fine.

It may be that XCode is binding in additional details from the build settings at the time of packaging and since the info.plist hadn't changed those additional bindings did not get attached. If this is the case I would consider it a bug.

The Deployment target field is what controls this. Xcode sets a MinimumOSVersion key in the Info.plist file based on the project setting.
