Applewatch: segue crashing app in Xcode 14.2 - swift

I build an AppleWatch standalone app some months ago. I worked fine, but after running Xcode 14.2 segues don't work anymore. It crashes the app.
See the video with Xcode and the simulator showing the problem: https://youtu.be/LlgnZ68JUe8
I removed the segues. Added them again. Same result.
Does anyone have the same experience and knows how to work around this?
This is the crash log:

Frequent crash when launching default RealityKit project

I'm facing an issue where when opening the RealityKit template from Apple in Xcode 11.5, the app will crash on an iPad Pro 11" (2020) with a confusing error.
The error is
com.apple.arkit.capture (35): EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=1, address=0xfffffffffffffffc)
The last message in the console is
2020-05-26 12:28:12.740185+0930 BlankAR[4276:154461] [Sensor] ARDepthSensor (AVCaptureDeviceTypeBuiltInTimeOfFlightCamera - Back) (0x141f26290): capture session dropped jasper frame: 4570.047651, LateData
There isn't really any more info to provide. It's Apple's default Augmented Reality template in Xcode.

SKVideoNode videoNodeWithFileNamed: crashes in iOS 8.4, fine in iOS 9

In iOS 8.4, our game is crashing when trying to initialize an SKVideoNode via filename, works just fine in iOS 9. Apple documentation states that the following method is supported in 8.0 and later (here):
SKVideoNode *introVideoNode = [SKVideoNode videoNodeWithFileNamed:#"intro.mp4"];
But crashes with:
+[SKVideoNode videoNodeWithFileNamed:]: unrecognized selector sent to class
Now, everything works fine in both iOS 8 and 9 if I initialize with an AVPlayer instead:
SKVideoNode* introVideoNode = [[SKVideoNode alloc] initWithAVPlayer:player];
Has anyone else encountered this? Is this a SpriteKit bug with iOS 8?

Do Swift-based applications work on OS X 10.9/iOS 7 and lower?

Will Swift-based applications work on OS X 10.9 (Mavericks)/iOS 7 and lower?
For example, I have a machine running OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion), and I am wondering if an application I write in Swift will run on it.
Or what should I have to create a Swift application using Mac OS?
I just tested it for you, Swift applications compile into standard binaries and can be run on OS X 10.9 and iOS 7.
Simple Swift application used for testing:
func application(application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: NSDictionary?) -> Bool {
self.window = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds)
var controller = UIViewController()
var view = UIView(frame: CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 568))
view.backgroundColor = UIColor.redColor()
controller.view = view
var label = UILabel(frame: CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 21))
label.center = CGPointMake(160, 284)
label.textAlignment = NSTextAlignment.Center
label.text = "I'am a test label"
controller.view.addSubview(label)
self.window!.rootViewController = controller
self.window!.makeKeyAndVisible()
return true
}
Swift code can be deployed to OS X 10.9 and iOS 7.0. It will usually crash at launch on older OS versions.
Apple has announced that Swift apps will be backward compatible with iOS 7 and OS X Mavericks. The WWDC app is written in Swift.
Update - As per Xcode 6 Beta 4
iOS 7 and OS X 10.9 minimum deployment target
The Swift compiler and Xcode now enforce a minimum deployment target of iOS 7 or OS X
Mavericks. Setting an earlier deployment target results in a build failure.
From Xcode 6 release note
So my previous answer(Shown below) will not be applicable to any further development. Swift will no longer available for iOS6 and below
A Swift application can be run on iOS 6. Even though many people are saying that Swift will support only iOS 7+ and OS X 10.9+, from my experience it's not.
I have tested a simple application written completely in Swift in an iOS 6 device. It works perfectly fine. As Apple says, Swift code is binary compatible with Objective-C code. It uses the same compiler and runtime to create the binary.
Here is the code I have tested:
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
let button = UIButton.buttonWithType(UIButtonType.System) as UIButton
button.frame = CGRectMake(100, 100, 100, 50)
button.backgroundColor = UIColor.greenColor()
button.setTitle("Test Button", forState: UIControlState.Normal)
button.addTarget(self, action: "buttonTapped:", forControlEvents: UIControlEvents.TouchUpInside)
self.view.addSubview(button)
}
func buttonTapped(sender: UIButton!) {
println("buttonTapped")
}
}
It is a simple application, just adding a button programmatically. My application contains only two files, AppDelegate.swift and ViewController.swift.
So if you are not using any new APIs added as part of the iOS 8 SDK or some Swift specific APIs (corresponding API is not available for Objective-C) your application will seamlessly work on iOS 6 or later (tested and working), even on iOS 5 (not tested). Most of the APIs in Swift are just the replacement of the existing Objective-C APIs. In fact they are the same in binary.
Note: As per Xcode 6 beta 4 for swift apps deployment target should be iOS 7 or OS X 10.9(see the above update). So swift will no longer available for iOS6 and below
In brief:
Swift based applications can target back to OS X Mavericks or iOS 7 with that same app.
How is it possible ?
Xcode embeds a small Swift runtime library within your app’s bundle. Because the library is embedded, your app uses a consistent version of Swift that runs on past, present, and future OS releases.
Why should I trust this answer ?
Because I am not saying this answer as one apple guy told me in twitter or I wrote hello world and tested it.
I took it from apple developer blog.
so you can trust this.
Swift uses the same runtime as Objective-C and can even live side-by-side Objective-C in the same application (as per the WWDC 2014 keynote).
This will need to be checked/verified using Xcode 6 and the new SDK to find a final answer.
I read all answers that said: No, Swift does not work with less than iOS 7. But I said YES, I just created a Swift project that does run in Xcode 5 with 6.0 deployment target.
I just create a demo project in Xcode 6 BETA with the Swift programming language selected.
Close Xcode 6 beta, and I open this demo project in Xcode 5 with deployment target 6.0
And also select simulator 6.1.
Then that project runs well in simulator 6.1. My MacOS X is 10.9.3, so I said yes, that runs in lower than iOS 7. with 10.9.3 Mac OS X.
Here it is a screenshot of the simulator:
Here is a demo as well
While code confirms it, Apple itself has said that Swift will be compatible on iOS 7 and Mavericks in their technical keynote (State of the platforms, session 102, around the 34 min 00 sec mark) at WWDC 2014.
Swift applications are supported on iOS 7 and above as stated in Beta 4 release notes. iOS 6.0, 6.1, 7.0, 7.1, 8.0 in Xcode 6 Beta
Swift applications are supported on platforms OS X 10.9 and above. OS X 10.4 to 10.10 in Deployment Target. I have tested on targeting 10.5 to 10.10, and running on 10.9.3
It appears Swift applications don't run on OS X 10.7. I just created a simple GUI application (a view, a lable, a button) which runs fine on Mavericks. The base SDK is set to 10.9 and the deployment target to 10.7. I copied that application from the DerivedData folder over to my 10.7 virtual machine, and it crashs when starting, show this error:

However this message is irritating, since there's certainly a CoreGraphics library in this VM. Other applications that make heavy use of CoreGraphics work just fine.
This is the post I read from apple Swift blog, might be helpful:
App Compatibility:
If you write a Swift app you can trust that your app will work well into the future. In fact, you can target back to OS X Mavericks or iOS 7 with that same app. This is possible because Xcode embeds a small Swift runtime library within your app's bundle. Because the library is embedded, your app uses a consistent version of Swift that runs on past, present, and future OS releases.
Binary Compatibility and Frameworks:
While your app's runtime compatibility is ensured, the Swift language itself will continue to evolve, and the binary interface will also change. To be safe, all components of your app should be built with the same version of Xcode and the Swift compiler to ensure that they work together.
This means that frameworks need to be managed carefully. For instance, if your project uses frameworks to share code with an embedded extension, you will want to build the frameworks, app, and extensions together. It would be dangerous to rely upon binary frameworks that use Swift — especially from third parties. As Swift changes, those frameworks will be incompatible with the rest of your app. When the binary interface stabilizes in a year or two, the Swift runtime will become part of the host OS and this limitation will no longer exist.
I tested running a bare-bone, Swift-based app on an iPod Touch (3rd gen) device. It appears Swift-based apps don't work with iOS 5.x but do work with iOS 6.x.
Here's what shows up in the debug log when I tried to launch the test app with iOS 5.0.1:

For iOS 6.1.6, the app runs fine without displaying those error messages.
There seems to be a lot of old answers here so I just wanted to post the official response from the Swift team. Swift is backwards compatible with OS X Mavericks and iOS 7

Compatibility
One of the most common questions we heard at WWDC was, “What is the compatibility story for Swift?”. This seems like a great first topic.
App Compatibility
Simply put, if you write a Swift app today and submit it to the App Store this Fall when iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite are released, you can trust that your app will work well into the future. In fact, you can target back to OS X Mavericks or iOS 7 with that same app. This is possible because Xcode embeds a small Swift runtime library within your app’s bundle. Because the library is embedded, your app uses a consistent version of Swift that runs on past, present, and future OS releases.
I also tried a very simple app on 10.8 (one button, sets text on a label). It crashed at startup, as Greg Parker stated:
Dyld Error Message:
Symbol not found: __dispatch_source_type_memorypressure
Referenced from: /Volumes/*/SwifTest.app/Contents/MacOS/../Frameworks/libswiftDispatch.dylib
Expected in: /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib
in /Volumes/*/SwifTest.app/Contents/MacOS/../Frameworks/libswiftDispatch.dylib
(This was using a deployment target of 10.7)
Try the following code:
It's working without StoryBoard:
func application(application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: NSDictionary?) -> Bool {
self.window = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds)
self.window!.backgroundColor = UIColor.whiteColor()
// Create a nav/vc pair using the custom ViewController class
let nav = UINavigationController()
let vc = ViewController(nibName: "ViewController", bundle: nil)
// Push the vc onto the nav
nav.pushViewController(vc, animated: false)
// Set the window’s root view controller
self.window!.rootViewController = nav
// Present the window
self.window!.makeKeyAndVisible()
return true
}
Yes, in fact Apple has announced that Swift apps will be backward compatible with iOS 7 and OS X Mavericks. Furthermore the WWDC app is written in the Swift programming language.
When it comes to Swift Frameworks.
As for today, with Xcode version 6.1.1 (6A2008a), if the Swift framework is targeted to iOS 7.1, linker report warning
ld: warning: embedded dylibs/frameworks only run on iOS 8 or later.
and application can't be submitted to AppStore. Check this issue : Lint to prevent dynamic libraries and frameworks from passing with iOS 7
Quick Update, effective from February 15th, 2015, we cannot submit apps to the store that were developed using an SDK prior to iOS 8. So, keeping that in mind , its better to not to worry about this issue as many people have suggested that apps made in Swift can be deployed to OS X 10.9 and iOS 7.0 as well.
Answered code-snippet posted by Leandros seems bit old. I have fixed and made it compilable in Swift 5.
Swift 5
func application(application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: NSDictionary?) -> Bool {
self.window = UIWindow(frame: UIScreen.main.bounds)
let controller = UIViewController()
let view = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 320, height: 568))
view.backgroundColor = UIColor.red
controller.view = view
let label = UILabel(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 200, height: 21))
label.center = CGPoint(x: 160, y: 284)
label.textAlignment = NSTextAlignment.center
label.text = "I'am a test label"
controller.view.addSubview(label)
self.window!.rootViewController = controller
self.window!.makeKeyAndVisible()
return true
}

Application crashing on IOS 5 working on previous versions

My application was launched on the App Store on Oct. 5. It is working well on all iOS versions except iOS 5. On a particular class it is crashing on this statement:
[[self.tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:lastIndex]
setAccessoryType:UITableViewCellAccessoryNone];
I am getting the error "Executing Bad Access."
Could this be because of ARC, introduced by Apple in iOS 5?
That indexPath should be retained.
Add [lastIndex retain]; before your statement.

iPad App Crashes in 4.2 Distribution build only

I have a weird problem that hopefully someone could shed some light on.
I have an ipad app in the AppStore that was released when 3.2 was the only
available iOS for ipad. App ran fine on this iOS but as soon as 4.2.1 came out for ipad
and some of my users therefore updated to the new iOS the app now crashes when a
certain UIBarButtonItem is pressed. In the interim from iOS 3.2 to when iOS
4.2.1 came out i submitted no updates so it was the exact same app running on
each iOS yet i had this problem only on 4.2
After symbolicating in Organizer and viewing the Distribution build crash report
I am able to at least see the line of code that is causing this...
while(i < [filteredData count]) {
thats it!!...just a simple check during a while loop. The last thing in the crash
log points to the above line of code....
filteredData is a NSMutableArray that is definitely allocated/initialized at
this point. It is actually used in another piece of code before this with no
problems.
Again, this line of code gave my app no problems on iOS 3.2 but on iOS 4.2.1 it
causes EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)
When i install the app on my device via xcode with a debug or release config it works perfect but when installing from AppStore (distribution build) it crashes and only on 4.2!
Just to clarify.....
app works perfect on debug AND distribution modes on 3.2
app works perfect on debug mode on 4.2 BUT app crashes on distribution mode on 4.2
Any thoughts? .....cuz i'm confused/lost
Thanks for taking the time
Possibly an optimisation made by the compiler in Release builds causes this, especially as you dont get the issue in Debug
Can you refactor to...
NSUInteger count = [filteredData count];
while(i < count) {
Or is filteredData mutating in the loop?
NSUInteger count = [filteredData count];
while(i < count) {
blah;
blah;
count = [filteredData count];
}
