Does anyone know why this happens? My project uses a local network, so it doesn’t make sense to test it on just one device, so I want to install it on 20. The way I do this is I build it once and then load it onto each device using the organizer. However, about every 3 or 4 transfers, the icon fails to transfer with it, and instead I am left with a white icon only on the home screen. If I launch it, and then check the multitask bar, the icon is there (and it is shown faded out on the home screen while the multitask bar is active). If I transfer the app again, the icon comes just fine. The devices are all 32 GB iPad 2.
The dimensions of the icon are correct (72×72 RGB24), and the name of the icon is correct (Icon-72.png). I noticed that there are two entries in my info plist: Icon files and Icon files (iOS 5). My deployment target is 5.0, so should I erase the first one? This program is big and takes a long time to transfer and install so I dislike loading it twice. What can I do?
In newer versions of Xcode it doesn’t seem to be happening. So I will chalk it up to a quirk in Xcode.
