The .xib files created in new xcode 5 differs from the ones created in previous xcode versions. Since Apple moved to new method for making .xib or storyboard in xcode 5, older xcodes cannot read the newer .xibs. So there is no other way, you have to go only for xcode 5.

After installing xcode 5 you may try to make them backward compatible--> see this link
