Ok here is the problem, My app iSan Diego ran perfect on iOS simulator and on my phone. now the the app after downloaded from apple app store gets the following error message: There was a problem parsing some configuration data. please make sure that it is well informed. DOWNLOAD APP HERE: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/isan-diego/id497204126?ls=1&mt=8 The app shows no background color, and no header images. This is an app i entered in a contest, if i can't figure this out i am doomed. i copied the config data to that JSON validator and here is what it says: Parse error on line 193: ... subTitle: 721 San Pasqual Str -----------------------^ Expecting 'STRING', 'NUMBER', 'NULL', 'TRUE', 'FALSE', '{', '[' How can i resolve this?

Copy this to your mouse or to a text-file on your computer for safe keeping. b) Paste this data in the JSON validator again to be sure it's fine. c) If all's well, open the project in Xcode. d) Overwrite the config.txt data in the Xcode project with the value of the text data you copied from your control panel. At this point, the control panel and the project match. Build and run on the simulator. If all's well, re-compile and submit an app update. If you have issues, you'll know they are related to the JSON data in the project (unlikely but possible).

OK so what was messing it up was an error on a location map, a location map i was no longer using, so yes it wasn't on any of the apps menus, but it still existed in the screens/menu list. so i permanently deleted, it, re validated it in JSON and it passed, launched app and everything is working in full color and header images have returned! WHEW! thanks for the fast reply David!I panicked so much i didn't see clearly. when i calmed down i remembered all about the unused location map! i really need to keep my head on lol.
