Did you try drag-and-drop?
Drag the project-that-appears-as-a-folder onto Xcode's icon in its
Finder window. If Xcode hilites, indicating it will accept the
object, then drop it onto Xcode.
If Xcode doesn't hilite, try launching Xcode first, then drag-and-
drop the project-that-appears-as-a-folder onto Xcode's dock icon.
Again, Xcode's dock icon should hilite to indicate it will accept the
object.
Also, what type of project is the project-that-appears-as-a-folder?
Is it pbproj, xcodeproj, or something else?
What was the last version of Xcode the project-that-appears-as-a-
folder was saved under? What version of Xcode did you install on the
PPC?
If the project appears as a plain folder, what is its contents? 'ls -
lar /path/to/proj' would be better than a manual transcription.
Maybe you're missing some crucial file that Xcode needs to recognize
it as a project, and without knowing what you have now, no one can
say what might be missing.
