Alternatively, there's always archive.org's Wayback Machine. For example, the Core Data Programming Guide from 2014-07-03 is available right here: https://web.archive.org/web/20140703032131/https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/CoreData/cdProgrammingGuide.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40001075 . Both the HTML & PDFs are archived, so the PDF is downloadable from the “PDF” link (which gives you https://web.archive.org/web/20140702154734/https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/CoreData/CoreData.pdf ).
Since developer.apple.com's URL paths have changed quite a bit with the recent narrow-body-giant-text-ification, I plugged https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/navigation/ into the Wayback Machine ( https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/navigation/ also works), chose a capture date a couple years ago, and then used the “Documents [ ] 4293 of 4293” search input to find the doc I was looking for. — Slipp > On Dec 2, 2016, at 10:36 AM, 2551phil <2551p...@gmail.com> wrote: > > >> On 2 Dec 2016, at 23:25, Richard Charles <rcharles...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> Somebody needs to start an online repository of older Apple developer >> documentation in pdf format. > > I did do exactly that for the legacy AppleScript stuff[1] when it started > disappearing, but it’d be a bit of a mammoth task to do the same for the > whole of the Cocoa APIs.
