iOS UIViewController loading, shows up in view debugger, but not on device

Just to clarify, though, you wanted me to create a storyboard with just Bob and no segues, right?

I don't think it's the segues causing the issue. I think it's just and error somewhere in the storyboard. You could spend hours trying to find it, or you could use that time recreating the storyboard and moving on. Make sure you test the storyboard regularly though in case the error appears again so you know what you did. I spent hours on that issue last time I had it, but I had to much to start over. I recommend copy pasting the view controllers into a new storyboard. Then run them individually to make sure they work. Then add segues manually.

Ok then you are updated. If it's not too much work, I would just recreate the view controllers in a new storyboard.

OK, so created a new storyboard. Copied+pasted from the previous one. App still worked the way it did before. Then, I set Bob to be the root view controller and reran my app. Interestingly, now the app displays nothing at all. I'll try re-adding the view controller. Maybe then Bob will work.

If your code isn't work related or confidential, I could take a look at it if you pm me a link to it.

So, I deleted Bob and created another view controller. That one works, so I think the solution is to delete Bob and recreate him.

On a related note, I know how to cut/copy storyboard code.
 
I thought this issue was as good as resolved, but it isn't. After I had done some stuff with Bob, the issue crept up again. So, I created a new file. Copied and pasted every view controller, deleted Bob. I then proceeded to re-add Bob and some subviews. I got it to work then, but then I did something in Interface Builder, and now I'm back to square one.
 
Oh, I found the real problem! It was a freakin' loop that was causing my app to hang all along!
 
If you think your app is hung in the debugger just click the pause button. You'll see the stack trace and be able to see what it's doing.

That's what I did. I think the problem was that a condition in a "while" loop was always evaluating to "true".
