Start the IDE

Step 1:

Start the Unity iPhone environment. The icon for Unity iPhone looks somewhat similar to that of Unity except for the iPhonesitting next to it. You should have installed Unity ﬁrst beforeinstalling Unity iPhone (because the Unity environment will removeor replace some demos if you do it in the other order). If you installedthem in a different order, you can simply reinstall Unity iPhone andget back all of the demos that you may be missing. Once you havedone that you will have the Unity IDE as shown above. Note that youcan NOT develop Unity iPhone applications in the ‘regular’ Unity Indie/Pro IDEs - they are not capable of producing iPhoneapplications.
