I have written an OSX 10.9+ app which works fine on all my test machines but two people with laptops have so far said the app opens (shows light under icon) but shows no window but will show the menu for the app with no drop down, it can highlight but does nothing else.
I can't for the life of me figure out why this is happening. I have checked Initial Controller is set in the storyboard. The plist looks ok. No complaints in console. Works on an old iMac from 2007, a Mac Pro 6 core and a New Retina iMac all with Yosemite.
Both cases where it doesn't open are on OSX 10.9.5
This is the screenshot of how it should look when opened:
The app is currently available for free, if anybody can shed some light on it I would be much appreciated.

Storyboards are not compatible with OS X prior to v10.10:
NSStoryBoard Class Reference
Availability
Available in OS X v10.10 and later.
I experienced the same thing with a project; only nib/xibs work for OS X < v10.10.

I'm trying to debug iPhone X simulator from safari, so that I can adjust my CSS. But it doesn't appear under Develop toolbar. Where on other hand iPhone 7 simulator appears. Web inspector is enabled on both devices. On Safari Technical Preview I have the same issue.
Perhaps anyone knows how can I make iPhone X simulator to appear in Develop toolbar?
Try restarting Safari while keeping your simulator open. That did the trick for me.
It appears that OSX version has to be updated to High Sierra Beta 10.31.1
I just upgraded safari to version 9.0.3, one of my parners in another city reproduced an error on my website using responsive desing mode and iOS 9.1 iPhone user agent in a MacBook (OSX 10.9.5).
They were explaining me how to reproduce the issue by using the "Enter responsive design mode" in the develop tab but no matter what I do, that specific option never shows up. I already disabled all extensions and deleted my preferences (not sure if this helps). I tried the option + command + R shortcut but it doesn't do anything neither. I already tried reseting safari and restarted several times.
Where did this feature go?
Edit: added screenshot:
Edit: 2nd screenshot:
According to Apple's Documentation, you have to be running OS X 10.11 El Capitan or above in order for Enter Responsive Mode.
With OS X El Capitan, Safari brings new tools and capabilities that let you create a better surfing experience with the Safari web browser.

As you are running OS X 10.9 Mavericks, you are not able to enable it.
Thus, you need to upgrade to OS X 10.11 El Capitan in order to enable Responsive Mode.
I'm running my app code on one computer and it works just like it should, the menubar is intractable. However, when I run it on another computer the menubar is greyed out. Both computers have OS X 10.10 and Xcode 6. Where might the error be? Some local setting or something?
Turns out the computer that caused issues was not running the latest version of Xcode (6.1) so I could not set the deployment target to 10.10. It was set to 10.9 and that caused the compatibility issues. Silly
I'm looking for a way to modify the persistent dock menu of an application when said application is not running, or at least trying to find out if this is even possible?
I'm using Xcode and Cocoa in Mac OS X version >= 10.5
Thanks in advance
If your app is not in the App Store and does not use sandboxing, you can implement a NSDockTilePlugIn
My kids want to learn to write apps on their MacBook which currently runs OS version 10.5.8.
I have downloaded Xcode 3.1.4 but it doesn't seem to have the iPhone Simulator.
Does anyone know where I can find this?
(And are their better tags I should use for this question?)
Thanks.
(UPDATE: I down loaded the " xcode 3.2.6 & ios sdk 4.3" dmg file from Apple in the hopes of accessing just the "iPhone simulator" but repeated attempts to open the .dmg file on my OS10.5.8 Macbook result in a complete, "blackscreen" crash.)
I am really very sorry because this is not straight to your question. But if I were you, I'd like to encourage them to start with Android. To me, an open-platform is more preferred. Beside that, Java is a strong/ dynamic language when comparing to C/C++.

Are you sure the simulator was not included? One thing to remember is it won't be shown with xcode in your applications folder.
To use the simulator you have to launch it from xcode by pressing the play button in the top left corner of the interface. If you have already used xcode with an iPhone/iPod/iPad make sure you select simulator from the drop down next the play and stop buttons(press and hold to change what is selected).
If you want to make sure you can access the simulator without xcode, launch the simulator as described above and then right click(or ctrl click) the icon for the simulator and select keep in dock from the options menu.
Hopefully the above helps you with your problem. If xcode truly did not come with the simulator your best option is to uninstall xcode(after backing up any projects) and trying a fresh install. Also try checking Apples dev center (https://developer.apple.com/devcenter/ios/index.action) for information about xcode and the simulator.
