i m getting a problem with my localized xib.
I have created english version xib first, then made them localized, & added other localization.
it works fine in app also.
But when i open other language xib with IB, i m unable to get all outlets & IBActions.
It seems like it is taking only those one that were present when i created the localized file, & not showing newly added one.
Does file not getting updated?
Note : My other team member done the same thing & they don't have problem.
i also tried to removed & created all new localized file then also no change.
I m unable to identify the problem, i m stuck on this problem & cannot proceed with further development.
Please help .. :(
If you have Xibs in different languages, they don't get updated automatically when you change the English one.
Instead, you should either merge the new changes using ibtool (type man ibtool in Terminal to learn its options), or use a dedicated application like iLocalize.
In general, it can be quite an issue to update all the localizations all the time and sometimes large changes can't be merged well automatically. You need to be careful about that.

Followed this tutorial https://supereasyapps.com/blog/2014/12/15/create-an-ibdesignable-uiview-subclass-with-code-from-an-xib-file-in-xcode-6
I cannot find a clear and up to date way as a UI designer to use XIB files and see them in storyboard.
I tried this tutorial but it no longer works and I'm unable to see why, comments mention that this will no longer work for new versions of xCode.

I'd expect that I can get a XIB file to show up in storyboard.
I've been trying to add a Portuguese translation to my app. At the moment it's all in English. (well, it started that way).
I'm using a Storyboard for the main part of the UI. There are also a couple of additional xib files for reusable UI in table etc...
Anyway, I set out on the path of trying to internationalise the app and managed to convert the Storyboard to Portuguese.
I then tried to set up some strings (just a couple to begin with) to make translations of those also.
I've now got an storyboard that's only in Portuguese (I lost the English version) and none of the strings are being translated properly anyway.
I've set all the string back to just use #"blah" now (I'd put NSLocalizedString in a couple of places).
So I should be back to square one (once I fix the storyboard).
Anyway, is there a list of steps somewhere of how to go about making an app localised?
Any help appreciated.
There are couple of tutorials available - this is one of the good ones: http://www.raywenderlich.com/2876/how-to-localize-an-iphone-app-tutorial
This will definitely help you to get started real quick!
However, if you are on iOS6 xCode 4.5 you should also check the new features regarding localization. Apple now has also gon the route to have just one XIB (not like before multiple XIBs, one per language - which was impossible to maintain)
Probably the most important point is to always use NSLocalizedString, so there is no need for multiple XIBs. And then it's real easy to just add a new strings file for each language.
All you have to do then is in the Project Editor select your project -> select the Info tab on the right -> scroll all the way down -> there you find the localizations, press the little + on the buttom to add a new language. That's it.
So I'm pretty new to programming, so I downloaded Xcode 4.2 and got to work. I watched many online tutorials and the main problem I was having was that all the tutorials were for Xcode 4 and not 4.2, meaning when you chose empty application setting, it was missing the .xib file. So I found a tutorial on how to create a .xib file. I got through it all except for one step, and that was to drag the from the window outlet of the xAppdelegate to the window. I've tried this over and over, but it doesn't work.
Here is the tutorial if anyone needs to see it http://www.trappers.tk/site/2011/06/16/mainwindow-xib/
Please someone help me!
You need to hold Ctrl while dragging, else it will not work.
Guide.
As you Control-drag from an object to your source code, Interface Builder indicates where a new binding is valid. After you’ve made the connection, Xcode displays a dialog you use to configure the binding. You can use the dialog to configure all aspects of the binding.
Interface Builder uses the Xcode index to determine which key paths are valid, and can also discover what controller it should connect through—you can therefore connect from a user interface element such as a table column to a property in a model class header.
Check out the video here.
You should choose a SingleViewBased Application instead of Empty Application then study all files that how they connect with each other. You can choose Master Application also. They will help you.

I am having a bug that has got me stumped. I created a label a short while ago that was just a placeholder to be replaced in the future. Finally, I get to replacing it with a button, so I delete the UILabel and put a UIButton in its place (keep in mind this is all in Interface Builder). When I run the program in the simulator, the new button isn't there and instead there is the old label which has been deleted. I have searched my whole program and I have no reference to this label, it is completely out of my program, yet it still appears in IB and my new button does not. I have tried Cleaning the program and quitting Xcode several times to no avail. If anybody knows of or has faced a similar problem I would love to hear your solution.
Thanks,

It seems in your case NIBs are cached in Simulator, delete your app from inside Simulator and rebuild/reinstall then it shall be fine.
With xcode 3 I would have guessed that you did not save the xib file within Interface Buidler.
Still in xcode 4 I sometimes get the impression that not all changes come to effect for whatever reason. As if one or two source files do not get compiled at all.
Then I close xcode, save everything and start over again.
I am developing an application for the iPad. The application has following details:
Base SDK: 4.2
Deployment Target: 3.2
The application is a game application and it has got 10 rounds.
In each round I am loading 6 controllers and after the completion of each round again the same cycle starts.
The application works fine till 4 rounds but at the end of 4th round it crashes given following error:
"NSInternalInconsistencyException Could not load nib ind bundle:"
I have checked for everything solution like checking the nib file name, checking the nib file path. Nib file name and nib file path both are correct and targets are also correct but still it crashes.
Any help for this will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Shyam
Right click your nib file in xcode and make sure its type is 'file.xib'.
I had this problem too, in my case the cause was that my project had no localization to italian but the app was running under "it" settings.
The simulator has English as regional setting by default, everything was ok on it while the actual device had italian settings, so the app crashes immediately when attempting to load the RootViewController, because it was looking for an italian version of it.
In XCode I added an italian localized version to the RootViewController (now I see two entries under it, one for english created by default and italian). Note that you don't need to do the real translations in the view, it's enough that you create it and leave as default. Xcode copies all labels and text from the original view, you just leave as is for the moment.
You'll have to do this for each view controller in your project. Refer to Apple docs, for explanations on internationalization and localization here.
As a workaround, some people might prefer to change the device regional settings to English while performing tests...
