I didn't check the Targeted for iPad option when creating a View Controller. How can I fix my UIView to be targeted for iPad devices using XCode 4.2?

Question

I made a mistake when I created one of my UIViewController objects. When I created the files, I forgot to select the Target for iPad option.

Answer 1

Change it in Build Settings -> Targeted device family OR under Devices in Summary tab.

You'll find the above in your project's Targets section.

EDIT: Sorry for the misunderstanding. THIS SO post seems to address your issue.

Answer 2

Try this at your own risk:

First, back-up your original Xib file. Next, modify the second line from:

<archive type="com.apple.InterfaceBuilder3.CocoaTouch.XIB" version="8.00">

to

<archive type="com.apple.InterfaceBuilder3.CocoaTouch.iPad.XIB" version="8.00">

Next, open the source code of the xib, and in every ocurrence of the element:

<string key="IBDocument.TargetRuntimeIdentifier">

Replace the value IBCocoaTouchFramework with IBIPadFramework.

Good luck!
