I am developing an Application for iPad (iOS)on Xcode 4.2 on MAC OS X 10.6.5 i.e snow leopard and apple has not released sdk for ios 5.1 for snow leopard.

i was using my iPad for testing it was working great with ios 5.0.1.

i just recently upgrade iPad to 5.1 and now i am unable to deploy code on iPad , i checked the registration of my device for development on development.apple.com and its still exist.

i even checked in Organizer-Devices and in that window it show me following message :

Click on your project name in the left top, then on your target, and then click on the "build settings" tab

In all the option there is a "iOS deployment target" i think this is what you want ^^

I had the same issue. Turns out you have to download/install the newest version of Xcode from the App Store.
