Setting Xcode's target to iPhone NOT iPad

iphone xcode ipad simulator

I just upgraded to iPhone SDK 3.2 Beta 4. Since doing so, I have not been able to get the app to launch in the iPhone simulator - it keeps launching in the iPad simulator. I have tried option-clicking the drop-down menu in the top left-corner of Xcode and setting 'Active Executable' to iPhone simulator 3.1.3 but it keeps going back to iPad simulator instead.

What gives? I have no interest in my app running on the iPad and I don't want to test it in the 2X mode in the simulator.

Thanks,

You can't really launch an iPhone app in 3.2.x - sometimes it will pop up - but basically right now it is only for iPad development.
