GS Viewer Major Problem

Shinplaster

Hey, I just recently updated my iPod to 5.1, I updated Xcode, updated my mac. I put GS viewer on my 5.1 software and works!. BUT one problem when I open gamesalad on the mac it finds my iPod and I can click it to view on my device, but on the device should be a green light indicating that gamesalad was found. But it stays orange... When I click view on my device in gamesalad. It goes to the sending files screen on my mac but then crashes gamesalad.... Take into notice that I am connected to the same wi-fi on both my mac and my iPod.

THE THING IS. I have an iPad2 so I put GS Viewer on my iPad and it worked 100%. So something is wrong with my iPod but I can't figure it out.

I also restored my iPod.... and still does not work... I have no idea what to do

I have os 5.1 on my iphone and I was testing my game made with 9.91 and viewer today, then I installed 9.92 and when I tried to install the new viewer on my phone Xcode doesn't show my device in the drop down and in the organizer it says cant use my device with that version cause 5.1 isn't supported. Now What?

@ironDan try updating your mac? or Xcode?

@Shinplaster will Xcode 4.3.2 work with the new Gamesalad viewer? My Mac is up to date and I'm running 10.6.8

@irondan yes. You need up to date Xcode for devices to go green on - It will tell you that your ios won't work with older SDK. Updating fixed it for me.

Gamesald always builds their updates with the most current version of Xcode so when running the most current version of GS you should be running the most current version of Xcode for your version of osx.

There's kind of a vicious circle. You need Xcode 4.3 for iOS SDK 5.1, but Xcode requires Lion. So, as you'll find, I updated my phone to 5.1, then had to install Lion, and finally had to upgrade Xcode to 4.3. Not so fun, but I guess Lion was inevitable. Apple's pretty good at that.
