Solution 1 - Xcode

2021 Update

https://developer.apple.com/download/all/?q=xcode

It requires signing in with a free Apple Developer account.

Solution 2 - Xcode

The following link filters for "Xcode" in the Apple Developer Center downloads repository:

https://developer.apple.com/download/more/?name=Xcode

This link seems fairly future-proof?

The links have changed since the accepted answer to this question was written; I could not find a link to "Downloads" after clicking "Resources".

Previously, this URL was used:

https://developer.apple.com/downloads/index.action?name=Xcode

It's moved recently. From developer.apple.com go to More in top right corner

Solution 5 - Xcode

I found it!

Go to iOS Development center (iOS gives you Xcode plus the iPhone tools if Im correct) Mac Development Center will probably work too.

https://developer.apple.com/devcenter/ios/index.action

Scroll down to DOWNLOADS Xcode 4.4.1 You will see: "Looking for an older version of Xcode? Download"

Click that .

I found it on page 3 - way at the bottom of the list.

Solution 6 - Xcode

  1. Go to Apple's dev Portal (sign in required) - The More Downloads section https://developer.apple.com/download/more/
  2. Search for the relevant Xcode version.
  3. Expand the row and click the download link

Solution 7 - Xcode

Xcode 3.2.x is documented as only being for OS X 10.6.x (Snow Leopard). As far as I know, Xcode 3.1.4 is the most recent version of Xcode for OS X 10.5. While it seems to be hidden away, I found it was possible to get to the old links for it, if you are registered at the Apple Developer Connection website, by using this link:

http://connect.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MemberSite.woa/wa/downloads

and then clicking through to the "Developer Tools" section and scrolling down to the download link for "Xcode 3.1.4". I'm not sure why Apple has made it that hard to find older stuff. Perhaps they are trying to get people to join the paid Mac Developer program?

UPDATE: I see this is the same link that Evan's suggestion eventually gets you to. They could make the links a little more obvious, especially from the Xcode page itself!

Solution 8 - Xcode

I don't think there is anyway to download an older version. I bet the website you are following was made when xcode 3.1.4 was the newest version. You could try searching for torrents of the version of xcode you want, but the might be dead since the version you want is older.

Why do you need 3.1.4, instead of 3.2.6? Does 3.2.6 not work with Leopard?

You can go here to download 3.2.6, I think you need a free account.
