Xcode 3 can't open interface builder - iphone

In Xcode 3, if I double click an xib file, it doesn't open it with interface builder. It does absolutely nothing. How can I solve this ? I have Xcode 3 with iPhone SDK 4.0.2 installed.

I have faced this problem in a new Mac or sdk installation. Try opening the Interface builder app first. When it is open, try opening your xibs.

Try rightclicking the .xib and selecting open or open with.
Maybe it could work that way.

It should work when you double click the .xib. If not Click the interface builder icon in the dock at bottom after you double clicked the .xib.

My recent changes in NIB file is not displayed in ios simulator-closed

I've applied changes in interface builder for my app which has labels in it. I just changed the name and position of a label and in addition to that I changed the font of a text view in my app. When I started to run my app, the font remains the same as previous one and none of the labels are displayed in it.
Can anyone help it pls?
in Xcode try this: main menu:product:Clean
if not enough: main menu:Xcode:preferences: -> click over locations icon:
click over the little gray right arrow for derived data:
that will show you the finder folder "DerivedData": delete it.
one other thing to try: in simulator, delete your app.
quite your xcode and then again open your project . Clear your build then run your code.
You should also make sure, that the interfacebuilder file is linked to the target you are starting in simulator.
To do this, select your xib and open the File inspector. There you should see a dropdown named "Target Membership" where you can link the xib to the targets you want.
Also be sure to have the labels defined as IBOutlets in your header file and link them correctly in your xib. Easiest way to do this is using the Assistant Editor and drag the outlet to the header file.
I had the same problem - but only on the iPhone non-retina in the simulator. Cleaning the code did not help. Restarting and rebooting did not help. But removing the app from the simulator worked. Now changes to my UI show up next time I run.
To remove the app from the simulator I did it just like on a real phone. I select the app icon with the mouse and hold it down the mouse button for a few seconds. Then the icon displays a small delete icon that you can select (the app icons shakes too).

Interface Builder is missing in xCode 4.0

I have installed xCode 4.0.2 on my mac mini, every thing is working fine, I have compiled some sample applications too, but the interface builder is missing in the directory Developer/Application while xCode.app is there.
Interface Builder is no longer a sperate app, it is fully integrated in Xcode 4.
Interface Builder is inbuilt with Xcode 4 now. So you can just select your .xib file and it will show at right side. You may need to select last icon on right side top navigator to display Interface builder.

Issue with XIB in new Xcode 4

I have a problem with the new Xcode (today I upgraded). When I push on my file view.xib, I see the XML code, and not the graphics interface. Why? How can I see the "interface builder?
Interesting that this is the second time someone has had this problem. You can open the File Inspector on the Utilities bar on the right ( Opt+Cmd+1 ). Change the File Type under Identity and Type to the topmost choice. It should be Default - com.apple.InterfaceBuilder3.CocoaTouch.XIB.
Right Click on the .xib file and select "Open As". Then select "Xcode.IDEKit.TouchCodeIntegration.EditorDocument.CocoaTouch-title"

When I double click Mainwindow.xib file the Interface Builder does not open in MonoTouch?

when I double click Mainwindow.xib file the Interface Builder does not open. I did some research but I could not solve it, I encounter with the same question on many websites but there is no solution.
I do not know the application type is important or not, I mean I have created iPhone Window-Based, iPhone Navigation-Based but the Interface Builder did not open.
Another thing is I use MonoTouch trial version, I do not know if it might be the reason for this. What can I do to solve it? Thanks for advance.
The issue was that interface builder (xib) was not installed. I fixed this by reinstalling everything
as indicated on this page: http://monotouch.net/Documentation/Installation
But when I installed the Iphone SDK, I selected all components including the Mac API option.
Hope this helps:)

Trouble opening Mainwindow.xib in Xcode/iPhone Development

I was going through the Hello World tutorial for iPhone App. I recently bought a Macbook and have installed Xcode 3.2.3. The tutorial says that I should double click on MainWindow.xib and wait for few seconds to see an Interface builder getting opened. But nothing like that is happening in my macbook. Is there an alternate way to bring up the Interface builder or even to check whether I have the Interface builder at all!?

Rest of the stuff like iPhone simulator are working properly. What am I doing wrong. Please help me.
Thanks
Go to finder and search for "interface builder" as a file name. see if the application is there.
If you have tried everything listed on all websites over internet and if nothing works then try this:
Right click on MainWindow.xib -> GetInfo -> General -> "Path: Relative to current SDK"
