iPhone OS 3.0.1 Advisory (For developers only)
by Vaelek on Aug.05, 2009, under Development, Tips & Tricks
This is straight from the horse’s mouth. This is a very simple step but has the potential to have a big impact if you’re unaware of it and are now on 3.0.1.
iPhone OS 3.0 SDK and iPhone OS 3.0.1 software release for Mac OS X v10.5.7
To continue development with iPhone SDK 3.0 on your iPhone, iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS running iPhone OS 3.0.1 will need to perform the following:
1. Log into your Mac with an Admin account and launch the Terminal application
(/Applications/Utilities)2. Copy and paste the following line into Terminal:
ln -s /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/3.0\ \(7A341\)/ /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/3.0.1Note: If you installed iPhone SDK 3.0 somewhere other than the default /Developer
location, replace the "/Developer" directory as appropriate.
*I am seeing a lot of hits to this page from folks searching for iphone 3.0.1 advisory. This is somewhat confusing to me as I would think if you are aware of the advisory, then you know what it is. So what’s up? Are you finding what you’re looking for here? If not, please do post a note in the comments as to what you are actually trying to find out and I will be happy to update the post with whatever the answer might be.

Which link is this?

I think the reason for the hits (at least mine!) is that the line of code in the advisory has an error.
When I copied the line from the advisory PDF and pasted in Terminal, there was a space between "/" and "Developer" because of a line break in the PDF, resulting in an error message.
Removing the space fixed the problem. I'm using Snow Leopard btw if that makes a difference!

First heard about the advisory here… http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/message/xcode...
… but when searching for the advisory itself, this page is the first non-apple link (3rd result). Many times official releases don't document flaws/workarounds/pain … so this page looks like the best bet for "how to really do it."
