Using 4.3. 2, drag'n'dropped Xcode to the Applications folder, then just went to Preferences->Downloads and installed from there. Now 'make' works from the command line.
Putting a Bootable Lion Installation on a Flash Drive This process has a few steps. First, make sure your USB drive is formatted for use with a Mac, then download the OS X Lion installer from the App Store and copy it to your flash drive. Finally, use your bootable flash drive to install Lion on your Mac.
Some people are still using OS X 10.7 Lion and OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion, and until recently, you had to pay Apple $19.99 to get download codes for those OSes. But there's good news: Apple is now offering Lion and Mountain Lion for free for anyone who wants them.
OS X Lion (version 10.7) is an operating system designed by Apple and released in 2011. It is generally used with Apple Macintosh computers (Macs). Like any operating system, it allows you to run programs, organize your files, browse the web, and more.
You need to install Xcode from App Store.
Then start Xcode, go to Xcode->Preferences->Downloads and install component named "Command Line Tools".
After that all the relevant tools will be placed in /usr/bin folder and you will be able to use it just as it was in 10.6.
Have you installed Xcode and the developer tools? I think make, along with gcc and friends, is installed with that and not before. Xcode 4.1 for Lion is free.
It appears you can install the command line tools without getting Xcode from Downloads for Apple Developers. It required me to login with my apple account.
Alternatively, once you install Xcode from the app store, you might notice the command line tools are not installed by default. Open Xcode, go to preferences, click to the "downloads" tab, and from there you can download and install command line tools.
Xcode 4.3.2 didn't install "Command Line Tools" by default. I had to open Xcode Preferences / Downloads / Components Tab. It had a list of optional components with an "Install" button beside each. This includes "Command Line Tools" and components to support developing for older versions of iOS.
Now "make" is available and you can check by opening terminal and typing:make -v
The result should look like:GNU Make 3.81
You may need "make" even if you don't need Xcode, such as a Perl developer installing Perl Modules using cpan -i on the commandline.
Xcode 5.1 no longer provides command line tools in the Preferences section. You now go to https://developer.apple.com/downloads/index.action, and select the command line tools version for your OS X release. The installer puts them in /usr/bin.
If you installed xcode and upgraded to mountain lion, or you don't have the latest command line tools installed, or you have zsh or other shells, you can shortcut to some of the embedded tools in the developer directory with:
xcrun make
After upgrading to Mountain Lion using the NDK, I had the following error:
Cannot find 'make' program. Please install Cygwin make package or define the GNUMAKE variable to point to it
Error was fixed by downloading and using the latest NDK
