Everything works but nothing happens

I went though the tutorials up through the iOS and decided to give it a whirl. I had no issues getting Xcode downloaded and running and downloading my new Source code. She compiled without issue and I ran it on the iO6 simulator. Well nothing happened. My icon shows up but other than the blue bar across the top I get nothing. I have tried redoing it all and even cancelled my account and started new just to have a new app to from the start. Any clues? I just tried a simple menu with two rows. Neither show up?

Hi @Stephenlay, Did you try clicking on your icon and if so, where there any errors or warning in the window below? LA

Thanks LA. As soon as the simulator opens the app launches. I have to hit the big at the button on the bottom to put in in the background or ultimately close it before I can actually open it. I had been reading the output but had not seen anything obvious but your reply made me look again. 2012-12-02 12:17:56.355 shrlive[14688:c07] BT_viewControllerManager: initViewControllerForScreen: ERROR, could not initialize view controller for screen with itemId: 049C0F5A79AF8D32B32C33E 2012-12-02 12:17:56.355 shrlive[14688:c07] BT_viewControllerManager: getErrorViewController So this must be my issue.

Look at that itemid in config.txt and see what screen it is first. LA

Ok I downloaded the source again and deleted any older data including what is in the Library directory. I reran it with the same issue. The error is now with itemId 049C0F5A79AF8D32B32C33E In the BT_config.txt file it is first seen in the array BT_screens...

Need more information..still lost here. By that itemid, there is a itemtype or something that gives the info on what type of screen it is. LA

Gotcha. It is itemType":"BT_screen_menuListSimple" from below. "BT_screens":[{"itemId":"049C0F5A79AF8D32B32C33E", "itemType":"BT_screen_menuListSimple", "itemNickname":"Home Screen Menu", "navBarTitleText":"Home", "childItems":[{"itemId":"79881F920ABD48BEE0178DB", "itemType":"BT_menuItem", "loadScreenWithItemId":"83F95A30A69523C60812342","titleText":"Listen Live"}, {"itemId":"B6191FE67014DED4AEA49EF", "itemType":"BT_menuItem", "loadScreenWithItemId":"8F435693DB00508D6FD2E50","titleText":"Email Studio"}]}, That makes sense since I am not getting my menu to show.

I did drag it but it asks if you want to link it as a reference or something like that. I did this bit not actually copying it.

That's the option to copy the folders you dragged into the app folder in finder. Try copying the by config file from your control panel

It works. Thank you very much LA and Madrod. BT_pluggins was highlighted blue in Xcode. I guess it was the way it was imported. I kept trying to do it over and over and realized there was another Yellow BT_Pluggins. Once I deleted the blue one it worked. I will have to figure out why that happened but at least I know. You were both a great help and now I can stop to get the christmas tree from the attic :)
