Xcode Simulator: how to remove older unneeded devices?

Question

I\'m running Xcode 4.3.1 iOS-Simulator which originally only supports iOS 5.1.

I need to test my code with iOS 4.3, so I used Xcode\'s \"Install\" feature to install

Answer 1

Did you tried to just delete the 4.3 SDK from within the Xcode Package?

/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs

please also delete the corresponding .dmg file in

~/Library/Caches/com.apple.dt.Xcode/Downloads

to prevent Xcode from re-installing the same package again.
