My iPod touch Gen4 device gives error max open files 78 error and blank screen but emulator runs fine

I'm posting this in the hopes of saving others a lot of lost time and frustration.

Here is the fix: In the info.plist file: Main storyboard file base name - MainStoryboard_iPhone Main storyboard file base name (iPad) - MainStoryboard_iPad

My setup was: Main storyboard file base name (iPhone) - MainStoryboard_iPhone Main storyboard file base name (iPad) - MainStoryboard_iPad

This caused the ViewController to never load with no clue in the logs as to what was really going on.

Solution

  • In the info.plist file: Use Main storyboard file base name - MainStoryboard_iPhone Main storyboard file base name (iPad) - MainStoryboard_iPad

    Not this: Main storyboard file base name (iPhone) - MainStoryboard_iPhone Main storyboard file base name (iPad) - MainStoryboard_iPad
