Xcode 6.3.1 crashes when opening existing project - xcode6

I updated Xcode to the latest version via the App Store, as it normal.
I am unable to open any existing project.
I have deleted all Derived Data and have restarted my laptop. Still crashing. And, I have no 3rd party plug ins.
I am including most of the dump. Didn't include the binary images data.
It appears that it might be related to the interface builder. The one app that I want to open, has the Storyboard as the foremost tab.
Thanks for any help in solving this.

I fixed this by fixing another issue. OS X app store kept crashing on installation of 10.10. Solved it by downloading 10.10 from Apple directly.
Then, the issue with Xcode just simply went away! And, now app store app works right. Must have been some corruption in the app store itself.

Xcode quit unexpectedly in interface builder

I started a new project in Xcode (Cocoa App OSX, Objective-C). Every time I try to add a button to a window in Interface Builder(drag and drop) I receive the following error and Xcode quits.
"UNCAUGHT EXCEPTION (NSUnknownKeyException): [ valueForUndefinedKey:]: this class is not key value coding-compliant for the key springLoaded."
Xcode Version 6.3 (6D570) on Yosemite 10.10.3
Anyone experienced such behavior?

Update:
Xcode now somehow survived the button add but when I try to save I get this Alert:
Unfortunately this happens with Xcode 6.3.1
Finally I got an answer from apple devforums.
The reason for this is that I use OSX seed build OS X 10.10.3 (14D87h).
This is new API related to Force Touch trackpads. It was added in OS X
10.10.3, but only in seed builds

where to look for a bug. document, app delegate or both?

following situation: i have a document based App. by default when i open the app it displays just the menu on top of the screen. then i hit file->new and it opens up a brand new document.xib interface. working fine on my main pc. but on my secodnary pc running 10.6.8 the app crashes as soon as i run it. (code is compiled with the proper target...)
this application is crashing BEFORE i even see the main menu at the top. could the cause of the crash still be inside the document's xib file? or will it most likely be in the code that is outside the document part? what i mean is: is the code checked completely at the application lounch or does it onyl cause a crash when it reaches the code that is causing it?
thanks

The problem lies not in the XIB file, but rather in one of the objects in said file that is being instantiated incorrectly. Something about the object is causing it's -initWithCoder: method to fail. It appears you're probably not calling through to super in said method, and are simply returning self, which is not allowed.
The other possibility is that you have a "ghost outlet". Sometimes, when an IBOutlet is created and linked, then the piece of code that declares it is removed, IB doesn't de-link the outlet, and NSCoder tries to dearchive a nil outlet.
found the problem. here it is:
now it works without any problems!

CorePlot MonoMac bindings crashing

I am trying to use the CorePlot 0.9 binding for monomac, but that seems to be a hard task. The monotouch sample builds and runs without any problems, but I don't need that one.
Since only a CorePlotiOS.dll was present in the binding, I had to build one for osx myself, but first of af all, no bmake.exe was present, so I had to download the monomac source and build it myself first. Then I tried to build the CorePlotOSX.dll but that caused some compilation problems. Looking at the build-script for mono touch I tried with this line instead:
MONO_PATH=$(MONOMAC)/src mono $(MONOMAC)/src/bmac.exe -e -unsafe coreplot.cs -s=enums.cs -x=extras.cs -x=AssemblyInfo.cs --sourceonly=list --tmpdir=osx -r:System.Drawing -r:MonoMac -lib:$(MONOMAC)/src -baselib:$(MONOMAC)/src/MonoMac.dll .
Anything wrong there?
I have reduced the problem to this:
graph = new CPTPieChart();
graph.Title = "Test";
The allocation seems to survive, but whenever I try to access the object, I crash:

Any ideas? Running Mac OSX 10.7.5 btw.
Ok, that was hard. After several days of fighting xcode and monomac, it turned out, that the native CorePlot framework (dynamic lib) was not loaded. I was not aware, that I was supposed to load it myself (I am a monomac newbie, sorry...but isn't it rather ugly it fails silently in that way??)
Two ways to do this: either
Dlfcn.dlopen ("CorePlot.framework/CorePlot", 2); // 2 = load now, 0 = lazy load
or [assembly:MonoMac.RequiredFramework("CorePlot.framework/CorePlot")]

Aperture Plug-in crashes with EXC_BAD_ACCESS

I try to run the SampleFTPExportPlugIn that comes with the Aperture SDK 2.1. I had to tweak the Base SDK setting and manually copy the PluginManager.Framework folder to /Library/Frameworks, as described here.
All compiles and Aperture 3.2.3 now offers the menu item File/Export/FTP.
When selecting the "FTP" export method and thus triggering the plug-in code, Aperture crashes with a EXC_BAD_ACCESS. The illegal memory access happens in the initWithAPIManager method of class SampleFTPExportPlugIn when trying to get a reference to the ApertureExportManager:
_exportManager = [[_apiManager apiForProtocol:#protocol(ApertureExportManager)] retain];
This is the second line that gets executed after Aperture hands over control to the plug-in and seems to be the standard way of getting a reference to the ApertureExportManager in any Aperture plug-in (I haven't found any alternative ways of achieving the same anywhere).
Here the stacktrace:

I read all about Objective-C memory management but cannot make sense of it. All the other examples I found on the web are implemented just like that so I guess I have a compatibility problem, something missing in my Aperture / Library installation. How can I narrow down the problem?
EDIT:
The problem seems to be with the passed in apiManager. The method signature is:
- (id)initWithAPIManager:(id<PROAPIAccessing>)apiManager
The parameter is then assigned to our internal reference:
_apiManager = apiManager;
However the actual class passed in is PROPlugInFirewall, as this output reviels:
NSLog(#"_apiManager class is: %#", [[_apiManager class] description]);
Then calling the respondsToSelector leads to the same crash although this method is inherited from NSObject.
if ( [_apiManager respondsToSelector:#selector(apiForProtocol:)] ) {
NSLog(#"responds");
}
The _apiManager itself describes itself as:
_apiManager is: <[*<PROBundleHandler: 0x14d79130> (PROAPIAccessing)*]>
Still stuck...
EDIT:
So it looks like Aperture is passing in a pointer that points to nirvana... However, I just installed another plugin, from the Apple webpage, with installer and everything. That one failed too when invoked...
Download FXPlug 1.2.5 SDK
Open the contents of the installer package
Copy PluginManager.framework to /Library/Frameworks
Your plugin should work now!
The newer versions of PluginManager.framework in FXPlug SDK(2.2/2.4) will cause this crash.
Tested on 10.8 with Xcode 4.5
I found that Justin's answer above didn't work for me when needing to build for Aperture 3.4, as it requires x86_64 architecture which the FXPlug 1.x versions don't support.
After trying various versions of the PluginManager framework, I found that the version available here doesn't cause the above crash and also contains the valid 64-bit architecture. Just replace the contents of /Library/Frameworks/PluginManager.framework/Versions/B with the contents of the linked archive and you're good to go.

Xcode 4.02 crashes while opening an existing App

I have an existing App which works fine for others with Xcode 4.0. I have Xcode 4.02 and xcode crashes as soon as I open this app. At times, it just hangs up and I have to 'Force Quit' Xcode. Other times, it gives me a 'Internal logic error' window and shows the following error.

I have recently upgraded Xcode from version 3 to 4.02. I have tested a couple of other projects and they seem to run fine on 4.02. So, I know that Xcode is installed properly. Please help me figure out what am I doing wrong.
I've seen several references to the same problem that all pointed back to the answer to this question that suggests deleting the repository from Organizer.
