Answer 1

Check that you're returning the correct value in numberOfSectionsInCollectionView:

The value I was using to calculate sections was nil, thus 0 sections. This caused the exception.

- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInCollectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView {
    NSInteger sectionCount = self.objectThatShouldHaveAValueButIsActuallyNil.sectionCount;

    // section count is wrong!

    return sectionCount;
}
