How can I run Xcode 12.5.1 on Monterey?
Background:
I updated to Xcode 13 so that I can run the code on my actual device. However, there is some issues with my unit testings in Xcode 13, thus installing Xcode 12.5.x for easier compilation.
Working Solution: (Copied from the best workable answer in Stackoverflow)
The solution is very simple. If you have the older version downloaded in your Applications folder for example, lets say 12.5.1 version, you just need to:
- Open Terminal
- Open Applications folder in Finder
- Drag the Xcode app into Terminal so it gets its path
- Then add this next to it: /Contents/MacOS/Xcode, so the full command will be something like /Applications/Xcode-12.5.1.app/Contents/MacOS/Xcode
- Press enter to run the command
Now you should be able to run it. You will note that when you open this version of Xcode, the Terminal will open too, but don’t close Terminal because it will close the Xcode too.
