Solution 2:

It should be easy.

Solution 1:

• Right click(or Control + Click) on Xcode project file (.xcodeproj).
• Hover over 'Open with' and you will find all the Xcode apps from Applications directory listed.

• Now, hold down the Option key so that the “Open With” menu becomes “Always Open With”.
• Continue to hold Option and select the Xcode version you want to set as the default for this file.

Solution 2:

Another way to apply this change to all the similar files is by clicking "Get info" and then making necessary change in 'Open With' section.

Solution 3:

Not directly related, however I assume most of you'd find this useful. Here is a link showing the command line FAQs.

The most 2 useful commands are.

1. Printing the version of Xcode currently used by my tools

xcode-select --print-path

2. Select the default Xcode for your command-line tools

sudo xcode-select -switch Xcode.app

E.g: sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode5.1.1/Xcode.app

Solution 4:

In 10.10 you should use (Assuming you've installed few versions of Xcode as Xcode6.1, Xcode6.2 and Xcode6.3, and want to make Xcode6.3 as default one).

sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode6.3.app

This comes handy with some 3rd party applications which fails to reset the path from OSX like SVNX.app

Solution 5:

This works for me I'm using vanilla titanium CLI.

Switch to desired Xcode version followed by ti setup for ios

sudo xcode-select -switch /path/to/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/

ti setup ios
