Mountain lion download and compatible issues

I need some confirmation regarding Mountain Lion.

  1. I am using Snow leopard and considering to upgrade to Mountain Lion. Now while downloading if the internet connection somehow gets disrupted , does it again start from beginning or it pause so i can resume?

  2. During downloading, will i be able to use my macbook?

  3. I am using Xcode 4.2 with ios base sdk 5.0. Now which Xcode version should i download after installing mountain lion?

  4. I have an ipad sdk 5.1.1. Can i use it for device test with new xcode version (right now with my ipad i can not device test)? I searched over ner for solutions but none of them are working for me.

If anyone know about these please inform me. Thanks for your help

  1. It does pause, however, it continues as soon as a stable connection is confirmed (automatically if I remember my experience correctly).

  2. Yes, your MacBook is completely useable during the download period.

  3. You should be running Xcode 4.4 (which can be downloaded without a paid developer account here) after your install completes. If you have a paid account, it is best to download Xcode 4.5 Beta 4 along with the iOS 6 SDK.

  4. Yes. Xcode versions 4.3+ support iOS 5.1+.

The download will probably pause, you can use the mac during downloading, not installing, for ios 5.1.1 i'd download the ios 6 developer preview Xcode to ensure compatibility
