I have spent the last few days trying to install my app on my 1st Gen iPad, but it won't install. If I use iPad 6.1 Simulator it works fine, but if I use iPad 5.1 Simulator, it won't work or install. How do I get my apps to work on 1st Gen iPads?

I have added my log, but it makes no sense to me, can anyone see what my issue might be, to why it won't work on a 1st Gen iPad 5.1: 2013-05-02 12:43:39.009 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] pousadadeestoi_appDelegate: Using the default BT_config.txt. 2013-05-02 12:43:39.011 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_application: initializing buzztouch application 2013-05-02 12:43:39.012 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_device: INIT 2013-05-02 12:43:39.013 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_device: Unique UUID exists. 2013-05-02 12:43:39.014 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_device: This device is an iPad. 2013-05-02 12:43:39.015 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_device: This device cannot make phone calls 2013-05-02 12:43:39.112 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_device: This device can send emails 2013-05-02 12:43:39.151 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_device: This device cannot send SMS 2013-05-02 12:43:39.178 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_device: This device can report it's location 2013-05-02 12:43:39.179 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_device: This device cannot take pictures or videos 2013-05-02 12:43:39.180 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_user: INIT 2013-05-02 12:43:39.181 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_networkState: INIT 2013-05-02 12:43:39.198 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_networkState: Monitoring Connection: WiFi Not Available 2013-05-02 12:43:39.199 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_networkState: Monitoring Connection: WiFi Available 2013-05-02 12:43:39.199 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_networkState: Monitoring Connection: WiFi Available 2013-05-02 12:43:39.201 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] pousadadeestoi_appDelegate: refreshAppData 2013-05-02 12:43:39.201 pousadadeestoi[11729:1c603] pousadadeestoi_appDelegate: loadSoundEffects SEE appDelegete.m, line 924 2013-05-02 12:43:39.202 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] pousadadeestoi_appDelegate: Using the default BT_config.txt. 2013-05-02 12:43:39.201 pousadadeestoi[11729:1bf07] pousadadeestoi_appDelegate: initAudioPlayer in background thread 2013-05-02 12:43:39.254 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_fileManager: File does not exist in cached directory: cachedAppConfig.txt 2013-05-02 12:43:39.254 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_fileManager: File does exist in Xcode bundle: BT_config.txt 2013-05-02 12:43:39.254 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_fileManager: readTextFileFromBundleWithEncoding: BT_config.txt encoding: -1 2013-05-02 12:43:39.285 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] pousadadeestoi_appDelegate: Using configuration data included in the project bundle. 2013-05-02 12:43:39.288 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_application: validateApplicationData 2013-05-02 12:43:39.290 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_application: ERROR parsing JSON in validateApplicationData: ( "Error Domain=org.brautaset.JSON.ErrorDomain Code=5 \"Unescaped control character '0xa'\" UserInfo=0xaad9e30 {NSLocalizedDescription=Unescaped control character '0xa'}", "Error Domain=org.brautaset.JSON.ErrorDomain Code=3 \"Object value expected for key: textContent\" UserInfo=0xaad9fa0 {NSUnderlyingError=0xaad9e60 \"Unescaped control character '0xa'\", NSLocalizedDescription=Object value expected for key: textContent}", "Error Domain=org.brautaset.JSON.ErrorDomain Code=3 \"Expected value while parsing array\" UserInfo=0xaad9ee0 {NSUnderlyingError=0xaad9e80 \"Object value expected for key: textContent\", NSLocalizedDescription=Expected value while parsing array}", "Error Domain=org.brautaset.JSON.ErrorDomain Code=3 \"Object value expected for key: BT_screens\" UserInfo=0xaada000 {NSUnderlyingError=0xaad9f10 \"Expected value while parsing array\", NSLocalizedDescription=Object value expected for key: BT_screens}", "Error Domain=org.brautaset.JSON.ErrorDomain Code=3 \"Expected value while parsing array\" UserInfo=0xaada040 {NSUnderlyingError=0xaad9f30 \"Object value expected for key: BT_screens\", NSLocalizedDescription=Expected value while parsing array}", "Error Domain=org.brautaset.JSON.ErrorDomain Code=3 \"Object value expected for key: BT_items\" UserInfo=0xaada130 {NSUnderlyingError=0xaada0d0 \"Expected value while parsing array\", NSLocalizedDescription=Object value expected for key: BT_items}", "Error Domain=org.brautaset.JSON.ErrorDomain Code=3 \"Object value expected for key: BT_appConfig\" UserInfo=0xaada1f0 {NSUnderlyingError=0xaada110 \"Object value expected for key: BT_items\", NSLocalizedDescription=Object value expected for key: BT_appConfig}" ) 2013-05-02 12:43:39.313 pousadadeestoi[11729:1bf07] BT_audioPlayer: INIT (preparing it for possible background audio) 2013-05-02 12:43:39.324 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_application: validateApplicationData: ERROR: There was a problem parsing some configuration data.

Hi Dragon007, You've probably checked this but what is the "Deployment target" of your build? Have you set it to 4.3?

ictguy beat me to it. :-) Change the deployment target.

Hey buddy.. It works just fine, I'm using an 1st gen iPad and all of my apps work fine. check here: https://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=71E2C5B3AF9FC3167D1758A However in your case the app is crashing because the json is not formatted correctly it seems... "Error Domain=org.brautaset.JSON.ErrorDomain Code=3 \"Object value expected for key: textContent\" UserInfo=0xaad9fa0 {NSUnderlyingError=0xaad9e60 \"Unescaped control character '0xa'\", You have some type of character issue: 2013-05-02 12:43:39.324 pousadadeestoi[11729:18503] BT_application: validateApplicationData: ERROR: There was a problem parsing some configuration data. Please make sure that it is well-formed. Run it through: jsonlint.com and you'll find where your bad characters are.. It could be the use of quotations..

Dragon007 are you Portuguese?

No! lol! from London. My target is 5.1. Thanks Mysps, do I just copy my Json data into the jsonlint.com?

Yes exactly. If there is an error you will see it in red and the line where u have issues

Right I have run my Json data in jsonlint.com and got no errors. Totally lost now. Keep getting a error saying: The configuration data for this application is invalid. What do I do next?

Are there any build settings I need to change to make it work?

Delete it from the simulator and try to clean and compile again

Hi Mysps will try this but I have done this about 20 times already.

Didn't work!

Are you trying to localize this app?

How do you mean 'Localize'? The app is for a Portugal Hotel, but I haven't changed any settings to do with Localization.

Right, I have re-downloaded the source code and that has seem to have done the trick, so I guess I have to redo all the custom codes added again. Pain! Sorry, guys, should of just done this from the beginning.

NOOOO!!! Lol it was the config that is the same error you where having with the line breaks. You needed to copy the new config data from the control panel.

Hi Kittsy done all that it made no difference. Downloading the source code, seems to have worked. Ran the Json data through jsonlint.com and it showed no errors. Downloading source again, has resolved the issues. Frustrating really, this happens from time to time with BT. Thank you for your concern though, even though I get the sense you are still laughing at me. lol!

Hi Guys just when I thought I had resolved my issues, now it won't work on iPad 6.1 Simulator. This is crazy!

Hi @Dragon007. Try looking at the installed apps in your simulator, deleting any previous copies of your app. Also try closing down xcode and reloading the project. And if that doesn't work, and I know people hate it when I suggest 'have you switched your computer off then on", but when all else fails...

Thanks Mac! Although it won't launch in the iPad 6.1 simulator, I am certain it works on iPad 6.1 OS, so I will just risk sending for publishing. What's the worse that can happen?

Remove all spaces from your json file until it is one Looooooong string. Then run it through jsonlint to make it pretty. I had issues when I formatted my own json; spaces and carriage returns will go through json lint, but will error on the app. Just in case... Cheers! -- Smug
