Cannot find executable for CFBundle?

I am running my BlogReader app then the IOS simulator is unresponsive and the debugger console says:

Cannot find executable for CFBundle 0x8c16570

and enters in a very long file path.

in previous builds it said:

terminating app in response to SpringBoard's termination

please help because this is making it impossible to progress!

Looks like you are getting an error and runtime. For the SpringBoard error you might want to reset the simulator. To reset the simulator from the simulator's menu select iOS Simulator -> Reset Content and Settings. For the other errors you need to set an exception breakpoint. To learn how to set an exception breakpoint see debugging basics video and at the 4 minute mark I explain how you can set one.

I added an exception break point and when I ran it, it blew right past everything and no exception threw off the breakpoint. I have reset content and settings multiple times and the same thing keeps happening. Thank you for the ideas, though. I am not sure if it is a springboard error or not, I am still looking for solutions.

i tried to compare mine with the actual project file and the same blank screen. maybe it does have something to do with with the springboard or the iOS simulator
