   I'm really new to Xcode. I've been programming for nearly 30 years, so I'm not a N00b in that area.

   Anyway, I followed the instructions and when I went to compile the AppScaffold, it complained that the SDK was missing for iphone3.0. I eventually found where that is set in the project (Project->Edit Project Settings) and it now compiles and launches the sample in the simulator, but it launches the iPad simulator. I set it back to use the iPhone simulator, run the app, and it switches back to iPad. I've set everything I can see to iPhone. Why is it launching the iPad simulator?

   Thanks

   Hi Rob!

   I will upload a new version of the Sparrow package soon, with iOS 4.0 selected by default -- unfortunately, Apple removed all SDK versions except 3.2 (which is iPad only!) and 4.0.

   Concerning the iPod/iPad simulator problem: That made problems on my system, too. But it seems to work when you follow these steps:

   First, check if the "Targeted Device Family" in the Project Settings (Build Tab) is set to "iPhone". Back in the main window, the configuration drop down menu at the top left (however that is called) should let you choose the "Active Executable": "iPad Simulator" or "iPhone Simulator".

   On my development system, this works: it starts the simulator with the selected hardware type. To switch between old and new iPhone (4G vs. others), I make this choice in the "Hardware" menu of the simulator, and the simulator remembers my decision for the next start. Beware that the iPhone 4 simulator looks very similar to the iPad simulator.

   Does this work at your system, too?

   BTW, if you use the 4.0 SDK, compiling for the iPad won't be possible (because the iPad currently only supports iOS 3.2)
