was unable to load a nib named - iphone

I just released my new App iBeat, which worked fine for me and my friends before release.
Now appearently many customers get the same crash, that is always happening at a similar stage.
Here's a (symbolicated) sample crash-report:

This crash happens across all supported iOS versions, with different nib-files, that is with SettingsVC_iPad, InfoVC_iPhone or Settings_VC_iPhone.
The problem is, I can't recreate this error, not on my iPod, neither on my iPad.
Any suggestions? (This crash seems to be really common, I already got 200 crashreports on this)
EDIT: To clarify, I did experiment with the downloaded version from the App Store, so I tried to recreate it with the exact version the errors happened with.

I am not sure it solves ur problem or not .. but I strongly doubt that this is the mistake ...
I think when u packaged ur application , u didn't copy ur nib file into ur project and has only a reference there..
You are not getting this error because probably you are taking your app from your development mac and the nib file's reference is present there ..
Delete the app from ur iphone and Try downloading the app from app store and then see ..

Sorry for the inconvenience, but it was totally my fault.
Really early in the development I was planning to do a french version, so I had an fr.lproj folder that I never deleted. Appearently the App was still looking for french versions of my IB files there, when started in french.

App working on simulator but not downloaded from appstore in iPhone 5

Good morning,
I have released a new app on the AppStore. It worked fine on simulator, in different devices (both iPhone 4 and iPhone 5) and also worked using testflight.
Today, my app has been approved and it is in the AppStore. The problem is that it works perfectly on iphone 4 but not on iPhone 5.
The log is:

I think that the problem is in the selector of storyboard in application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions so I have copied my old iphone 5 storyboard in a new one, changed name and uploaded a new version of my app.
Do you think it will work? Do you think should I do anything else?
Thank you very much
Works on simulator but not on device? Check capitalization of your file names. File names on device are case-sensitive, on simulator they are not.

Why is my iPhone app crashing with the exception "Could not load NIB in bundle"?

I am learning how to make iPhone apps in the simulator but my app crashes as soon as it launches in the simulator. Also, there are no errors and no warnings when I compile the source code.
Here is a copy of the console logs -

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'NSException'
I have tried and tried and can't seem to fix this problem. I will appreciate any help.
Your app is trying to load a file called LoginView.xib, and failing to. Seems like this file is referenced from your MainWindow.xib (or whichever is your main nib file as defined in your application plist). Check that this file exists, is copied to the bundle (in the copy resources build phase). If that's the case you can try cleaning the project, restarting xCode and trying again (I had this problem occasionally, for no apparent reason when switching between iPhone/iPad targets).

Could not load NIB in bundle [...] with name 'MainWindow' only on iPhone 4

I have a Problem with my App. It is working perfectly on my iPhone 3GS, but now where I tried to test it on an iPhone 4, it is crashing while the Splashscreen is visible.

I hope you can help me. Thanks in advance.
Does the MainWindow.xib actually exist in your project?
You may have deleted it by accident. It may still work on the 3GS even if you deleted it from your project as it may well still be in the bundle on the 3GS.
I normally clean my projects and reset the simulator/uninstall the app from my device if I get inconsistencies like this.

Can we share controll file in an univarsal (iPhone, iPad) Application?

I developed a univarsal application,(iPhone, iPad). But later I tried to make them sepret, so i copied my folder in another directory and then linked my iPhone's control file with iPad's XIBs, and delegated them with Outlets, (my controll file remained in the iPhone folder, i just link them in iPad), after it i removed iPhone XIBs from this folder.
Now my project is working properly, BUT only if I execute the iPhone version first(even from that different directory), and then execute my iPad version, coz it share's the build file of iPhone.
But when I try to execute it Initially (after deleting prior installed version from simulator), it doesn't work, as it terminate after throwing following exception.

here to mention i have worked hard with the line i'm establishing connection, and as i told same code run properly when I execute iPhone version first and then the iPad.
so please guied me with this,
thank you
What it says.
In the readyPlayer method you are trying to give a nil value to the fileUrlWithPath method.
You need to check why the path is nil.

App crashes but only when it's build for Ad-Hoc distro

My problem is this. I have an app that builds and runs fine in Debug mode, no crashes, memory errors, etc. As soon as I do an Ad-hoc build and try to run it on the device the main thread crashes at a certain point, for no apparent reason... The stack trace I managed to get from the device log is thus...

The other really strange thing is that if you close the app and stop it running (after the crash) in the background and then relaunch it, it bails out almost immediately quoting...
<Warning>: Application 'MyApp' exited abnormally with signal 11: Segmentation fault
Which I'm lead to believe is a memory access error (uninitialised memory access). I'm not doing anything crazy with pointers or anything so all I can presume is that it's a problem with the CF libraries...
Any thoughts or help would be HUGELY appreciated :)
It's hard to say exactly what the answer is without knowing more, but my first guess is that you are providing some invalid value to a UIView's center property.
There are two pieces of information missing that could help you/me find the answer.
First, lines like these in the stack trace need to be symbolicated:
15 MyApp 0x00012b2c 0x1000 + 72492
16 MyApp 0x0001276a 0x1000 + 71530
Knowing what is happening in those two lines will help you track it down, and knowing what the exception that got thrown (starting at line 11 in the stack trace) contains will help further. You may be able to get this information from looking at the device's Console output in Xcode's Organizer.
You can symbolicate the crash report if you have the dSYM file that was created when you built the app for AdHoc distribution. Dragging the crash report into Xcode's Organizer window will attempt to symbolicate it automatically. If that doesn't work, you can try using the symbolicatecrash script directly. It's tucked away in a path like this:
/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/Library/PrivateFrameworks/DTDeviceKit.framework/Versions/A/Resources/symbolicatecrash
