The Interface Builder won't open in Xcode when I click on MainMenu.xib

I have recently installed Xcode and have been trying to make very simple applications. The youtube videos that I have watched all show someone click the MainMenu.xib file and the Interface Builder opens. I have tried to do this and nothing opens. I am able to open the Interface builder manually but then the application that I make isn't linked and doesn't work.

Hi chris
Your question might be better posted in the Developer section of these forums. It's actually the very last one listed in the scrolling list of "Communities"

Won't open new page when I click bookmark, instead changes pages EVEN THO PREFERENCES SET TO OPEN NEW PAGES

Firefox keeps on changing pages, even yanking minimized pages back onto the screen and changing them, even though I have Firefox preferences set to always open new pages to accommodate links on a page or bookmarks.
I don't want Firefox to tamper with any pages, period. If I have a pages minimized, no way should Firefox be yanking that page up back onto the screen because it's "too lazy" to open up a new page to accommodate a bookmark or link clicked on.
It's extremely aggravating to click a link on a page, get a new page then, when I click the page to close it I find no page underneath, indicating that Firefox had changed the original page rather than open up a new page automatically to accommodate the link, etc.
What's the point of me in Firefox preferences setting it up for Firefox to open up new pages automatically when afterwards it doesn't?

Perhaps try the add-on Tab Mix Plus. It has a feature that you can force every link to open in a new tab if you like:
* http://tmp.garyr.net/help/#Links (description of options - see "Force to open in new tab")
* https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/tab-mix-plus/ (install page)
I don't know whether it has any effect on bookmarks. You can open those in a new window by holding Shift or in a new tab by holding Ctrl when clicking.

Safari won't open Mac Mail when I click mailto: links

When I click mailto: links, Safari opens entourage. When I deleted entourage and then clicked a mailto: link, I got an error message that said:
Safari can’t open “mailto:jen(@)gothamist.com” because Mac OS X doesn’t recognize Internet addresses starting with “mailto:”.
I am using Safari version 1.3.2

In Mail, navigate to its preferences from the 'Mail' menu and ensure that Mail is set as the 'Default Email Reader' under the 'General' section.

Firefox won't open new tabs when I click, also he doesn't open new tabs when I use CTRL+T. Any solutions?

When I want to open a new tab, firefox doesn't do it. The problem is the same when I use CTRL+T. So I can't open any new tabs.
Nothing seems to work: restart the pc, closing firefox,...

Uninstall the '''''Ask Toolbar'''''. It can cause that problem.

Firefox won't open new windows when I click "File" and "New Window". can you help me?

My question is just as it reads above. My computer is windows 7. I've never run into this before.

This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Interface Builder does not open when I click Mainwindow.xib file on Monotouch.

I did a lot research about it, What the most of view say it is because of the iOS SDK, not because of the MonoTouch, they say that iOS SDK provides the Interface Builder? Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. iOS SDK Version 4.3.

Does Monotouch work within Xcode? I'm not sure what it is. If so then Interface Builder does not open a separate window in Xcode 4. When you first go to your .xib, you must select your "Window" to see the window. Otherwise you get an empty grid. Here's an image with the "Window" selected. I have it set for Mac applications not iOS but what you have should look similar.

Interface Builder doesn't open

I'm a long time developer, first-time developer for Mac. I've just started to use the Xcode tools. I've used them in the past, but I just got my new MacBook Pro and installed Xcode 3.2.1 (10m2003). I started following one of the application tutorials, building Hello World. After creating the NSView (HelloView), the next step says, "Double click MainMenu.xib and open Interface Builder then blah blah blah". So I double click on MainMenu.xib and nothing happens. I checked the Console Log and found this:
1/3/10 12:49:33 PM Xcode\[7360\] LSOpenFromURLSpec() returned -10814 for application (null) path /Users/bpwold/projects/Hello/English.lproj/MainMenu.xib.
Then I decided to open Interface Builder from Spotlight, which worked. I opened the MainMenu.xib file from there (which does appear to have opened), but the log also showed:
1/3/10 12:57:54 PM \[0x0-0x215215\].com.apple.InterfaceBuilder3\[7496\] Couldn't open shared capabilities memory GSCapabilities (No such file or directory)
So my question is: Do I have a proper install of XCode? Has something gone wrong with the install. In the past, double clicking on .xib files would produce the desired results, but apparently XCode 3.1.2 on Snow Leopard seems to have a little problem.
Maybe someone else has run into this?

Not really. The problem is with certain/early style app samples that had xibs created programmatically (back in the stone age), rather then with IB (as most current examples from Apple are).
If you toggle the small triangle next to the offending xib in Xcode's resource window on the left, you should see yet another file...double click that one and IB should respond accordingly. If not, use the Finder and drag/drop instead. If still no joy, find another sample app

If you have all your music on the cmputer then i would connect up my phone uncheck the Sync Music option and apply.
This should take all the music off your phone .Then you can resync the music back on to it.
If this doesn't work maybe a restore to factory settings and start from scratch is the way to go

Since I've installed F4, about 50% of the time it won't open.

Windows Vista is my OS. Since I've installed F4, about 50% of the time it won't open, despite the fact that it's listed as a process in the task mgr. I get no error message and have no trouble opening Google or IE. It happens when I've just turned my computer on and when it's already on and I go open F4 to do something. To rectify, I have to either reboot my computer (sometimes multiple times) or actually uninstall and reinstall F4.

I have found that the example given in this thread
"... you would need three smtp servers in your smtp server list, smtp.goddaddy.com:username1, smtp.goddaddy.com:username2, and smtp.goddaddy.com:username3"
also has issues. It appears that the Mail program gets confused if there are identical SMTP server names (and user names that are identical in the first 8 characters) in the list. I had a situation where I had smtp.goddaddy.com:username1, smtp.mac.com:username2, and smtp.goddaddy.com:username3. When trying to send mail from username3's account I kept getting the "can't send mail from SMTP server smtp.goddaddy.com:username1" error message. The message indicated to me that the program had confused the SMTP servers for username1 and username3. Also, the SMTP server for username3 was not in the drop down list available from the error message window from which you get the opportunity to change SMTP server designations. Account preferences looked good and the server list from there also contained the correct information. I changed the the server designation for username3 to smtp.gopapa.com:username3 (my ISP has alternate server designations) and everything works fine.

After installing reader 9 sucessfully on the imac it won't open and doesn't seem to be there. I do have 5 installed but it won't work on new files. mac 10.6.8.Help.

Can you see Reader 9 inside Applications folder? If yes, then launch Reader and then try to open any pdf via File->Open or drag drop on Reader icon in the doc.
In case you dont find Reader 9 in your Applications folder then you can download and install the latest Reader from the following link: http://get.adobe.com/reader/otherversions/

After upgrading my iphone 5 to IOS 7, the iTunes Store won't open. Is there a fix for this?

After upgrading my iphone 5 to IOS 7, the iTunes Store won't open. Is there a fix for this?

I had the same thing yesterday. After google gave me nothing and after I was sure my phone had enough charge to restart, I did a reset on my phone...
Holding down the Power button, volume button and selector button on the front - for about 30 secs (or untill I knew the beeping had stopped).
I cant remember if I then restarted it or it it restarted itself, but now its back to normal! No memory loss from the phone either.
Freeked me out as its a new iphone 4s but glad to have it back! Without having to take it to get fixed by a pro.
Hope that helps

After a recovery reinstall of 10.8.5, using Safari 6.0.3, I get the message "Safari won't open because of a problem"

After a recovery reinstall of 10.8.5 and using Safari 6.0.3, I get the message "Safari won't open because of a problem"
I'm not sure if this Safari is compatible. I also have Safari 7.0.4 in my applications folder, which i downloaded as an attempt to
solve the problem, but it isn't compatible with my system.

Having two copies of Safari on the hard drive is what's keeping Safari from opening.
Move the 7.0.4 version to the Trash.
Then restart your Mac and try Safari.
Safari 7.0.4 won't run on Mountain Lion. Only v10.9 Mavericks.

Acrobat 8 shows in the dock but won't open

I have a new installation of Acrobat Pro, along with PS5. Computer is a mac w/snow leopard. Question is Acrobat 8 shows in the dock but won't open - says PS must be open for it to work - but PS is open(and functioning fine). So how do I get Acrobat working?
Thanks

I opened an earlier version of a CS program (Illustrator 3). Acrobat seemed to find what it needed and opened. It now opens normally - even with CS3 applications closed.

Set background image in the Interface builder

Hi,
Is there a way to set a background image for a View controller through the Interface builder? I'm using story boards.
If not please tell me how to do that programatically. I need to set this background image for all my UIs.
Thanks

Remember that the client is running from a browser. You need to have the file be available to the browser and that means having it be served by the web server. Place the image file in a directory available to the web server and map that directory to a virtual web server directory and specify it with a url relative to the web server root: /images/your_image.gif
