help with Xcode3

Ok so i have Xcode4 in my mac.
I found out that i need Xcode 3, so i downloaded and installed it in a different folder than development (i created an Xcode 3 folder in Applications).
After insatlling it, i can’t find how to run it.
Being a windows user, i’m looking for something similar to a .exe, but can’t find anything.
Any idea?

if i launch Xcode from my dock, it runs version 4.2.
I want to run Xcode 3 in order to work with corona. [import]uid: 98755 topic_id: 17417 reply_id: 65939[/import]

delete xcode icon from dock
navigate to your xcode 3 folder /Applications/
drag the xcode icon you find here to the dock

problem is there is no xcode icon in my xcode3/applications folder
that was the first thing i tried [import]uid: 98755 topic_id: 17417 reply_id: 65944[/import]

only a utilities folder with an app loader exists in that directory [import]uid: 98755 topic_id: 17417 reply_id: 65946[/import]

@fittogrowler1,
You mention that you installed it to Applications, are you sure you had the installation process right?

Press the ? + Space this will open up the search bar under the clock on the top right hand corner, type xcode and you will see the various xcode versions that might have installed.

click on them and they will show up in the dock, right click and select the Keep in dock option.

*unfortunately* there is no EXE on a Mac or Linux, there is a .app, but this is a directory not the executable.

You can read this for more details on a mac executable here

cheers,

There’s no .app file in any folder inside the directory where i installed Xcode 3. Could it be possible that the installation files are corrupted? For some reason it installs everything but the app doesn’t show up.
Anything to do with app loader? [import]uid: 98755 topic_id: 17417 reply_id: 66214[/import]
