With a project previously created in Xcode3  I see an intermediate directory under build  called Foo build where Foo is my project s name  and then in that are the directories you d expect  Debug-iphonesimulator  Release-iphoneos  etc  assuming you ve done a build of that type  containing the object files and products   Now  I suspect that if you start a new project in Xcode4  the default location is under DerivedData  but if you open an Xcode3 project in Xcode4  then Xcode4 uses the build  directory  as described above   So  there are several correct answers   -  Under the File menu  Project Settings  you can see you can customize how XCode works in this regard as much or as little as you like

I wondered the same myself  I found that under File menu  there is an item  Project Settings   It opens a dialog box with 3 choices   Default Location    Project-relative Location   and  Custom location   Project-relative  puts the build products in the project folder  like before  This is not in the Preferences menu and must be set every time a project is created  Hope this helps
