But, if for some reason again, if you need to download the beta. You can see that it'll point to Xcode.app which actually is Xcode-beta, i.e., Xcode 9. So, when you click on the Open it will open the Xcode for you and thats all you need to do. you just need to pick a new location when you're installing the beta version. In the installer there's a pulldown for the location. If you want to switch back to 8, just type in the same command with Xcode8.app in the place of Xcode.app.Ĥ) Verify you're using Xcode 9 by typing $ xcode-select -print-path. It's easy to have multiple Xcode installs. Click Install to begin the download and installation process. ģ) Type in $ sudo xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode(which is 9 now).app/Contents/Developer. Youll see a panel that asks you to install Xcode Command Line Tools. Now, move your Xcode-beta into your /Applications directory and rename it as Xcode. Here you need to drag your xcode-beta(xcode9) to your terminal once you just type $ xattr -d. Ģ) Type in $ xattr -d /Users///Xcode-beta.app. Now to use both Xcode8 and Xcode9 Beta together, you need to do the following:Ġ) Close all open Xcode projects and quit Xcodeġ) Rename your Xcode (8 which will be just Xcode.app in your /Applications directory) to something like Xcode8. But just for info, you can do $ xcode-select -install if you want the command line tools. If you get an error like: clang: error: no input files, you already have command line tools.

When you install Xcode, you'll install command line tools too.
