I posted this over at Apple's dev.forums last night, but perhaps someone here can help? I have hacked together the following code to play an aac I've created in Garageband Code: // Creates the bundle "bundle" and fills it with the address of the mainBundle NSBundle *bundle = [NSBundle mainBundle]; // Gets the path for the mainSong NSString *path = [bundle pathForResource:@"mainSong" ofType:@"m4a"]; // Checks if the path exists if (path != nil){ // Creates an URL with the path defined above NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:path]; //Creates the AVAudioPlayer mainSong and fills it with the song from the above URL AVAudioPlayer *mainSong = [[AVAudioPlayer alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:url error:NULL]; [mainSong prepareToPlay]; // plays the song [mainSong play]; } else{ NSLog(@"Error! %@", path); } The code returns no errors or warnings when built but when compiling to run in the simulator I get the following error message: The program then ends without running and without the simulator reporting the "normal" the app crashed (or whatever it normally says)... Anyone?
This is a common error and if you look at what the compiler is telling you it's pretty easy to track down and fix. Simply go to YourHardrive/Library/Quicktime and remove the offending components. In this case it looks like a LiveType component. Rinse and repeat.
