I also encountered this dilemma, and after a night of finding solutions, this is what I've found out.

You only need ONE .tmx file, and it should just be for the non-iphone resolution.

If you'd like to support all iOS devices, you'd have something like this in your Xcode Project:

  • TileMap.tmx
  • TileAtlas.png
  • TileAtlas-hd.png
  • TileAtlas-ipadhd.png
  • TileMap-ipad.png (optional) <- if you haven't set the ipad suffix to "-hd"

Take a look at Tiled. When building a universal app, it's a good idea to generate your (vector) art at the highest required resolution, and scale that same artwork down for every lower resolution device.
