CCParticleSystemQuad crashing with error "Abnormal error in particle quad" - ios

The code just crashes when an already running particle effect's setVisible property is changed to NO, and later turned to YES. I have been working with ParticleEffects for a while now but never have I faced this error before. I don't know where I am going wrong. Its so frustrating. Please any help would do wonders. Im using cocos2d 2.x, xCode5 and well ofcourse Ive generated my ParticleEffects through ParticleDesigner. Hoping someone will help me out here.Thanks though :)

I ran into this issue also and found that it was a cocos2d bug. The fix was added here https://github.com/cocos2d/cocos2d-x/pull/6032/files and you can copy the changes if you don't want to update. (Seems to have worked well for me anyways.)

XCode project stopped working and has a bunch of weird errors

I was changing some stuff around in my app and tried to re-run it and all of a sudden I get a ton of errors in the console that don't really make any sense. Does anyone know what's going on here? How do I fix this?
Solution: Restart XCode... it had to install some stuff so that it could run. sigh

Add-Migrations: Value does not fall within expected range

This happens in the package manager console. What does the red text mean?
After I run the command, the migration file is generated, but it's empty.
I can't find an answer anywhere else. I'm very frustrated. I've done a research in google but that error happens in many situations different than this one.
The solution to this problem was to "downgrade" Entity Framework to 6.1.3. I guess the cause was a bug with the beta version. I was using: 6.2.0 beta.
Thank you guys for pointing this out! Thank you Gert Arnold. You rock!

Xcode 6.1 running on Mavericks Code Completion is broken

I have tried deleting my derived data and restarting Xcode, and it works for a few seconds, until the Indexing is complete and then it's broken again.
Does anyone have any recommendations on how to fix this?
I searched in the apple developer forums and there are a lot of other users having the same issue. They say to go back to a previous version of Xcode 6 but I don't know where to find one, so any advice on that would be much appreciated as well.
I never realized how much I rely on Code Completion, I am pretty much stuck until I get this fixed.
PLEASE HELP!
This issue was resolved by upgrading to Xcode6.1.1

Using Breakpoints giving EXC_BAD_ACESSS in XCODE

Its been 5-6 months am working on XCODE. I am facing this problem for the first time.
Break point is best for me while debugging.
But today I faced a problem, where ever I use breakpoint, first line just after the break point is generating
Thread 1: EXC_BAD_ACCESS(code=1,address=0X0)
, I have added the screen-Shot for the same.
Due to this problem, am not able to debug my code. Please Help. Thanks in advance
I really don't know why its showing so.

Wintermute iOS App Gets "EXC_BAD_ACCESS"

I am currently attempting to port a game I've developed in the Wintermute Lite engine to iOS platforms. My game will compile just fine in XCode (albeit using the armv6 architecture) and will run perfectly on the iOS simulator; however, when I try to deploy it to an iPad, the first thread will halt in XCode with the error "EXC_BAD_ACCESS (code=1, adress=0xfffffff6)", pointing to a non-specific line of assembly code.
First of all, if you guys have any ideas right off the bat as to what might be causing this, I would greatly appreciate some help. The thing is, I'm more than willing to debug this myself, but being a complete noob with Objective-C as well as XCode, I'm not sure how to trace this specific error back to the line of code that's causing it (I apologize if this is a really basic question but I've already attempted to find a command to get the line of code associated with the error, but with no success).
I realize that this is scant on details, but as I said, I'm not sure how to pinpoint the piece of code that's causing this error using XCode, otherwise I'd just debug this myself. If there's any extra information I can provide, let me know.
Thanks in advance for any help!
I got it working. After a lot of messing around with XCode, I realized that I incorrectly configured the project file provided by Wintermute. As far as I can tell, it had something to do with the fact that the project was originally set to build for "iOS Universal" and I changed it to "iPad 5.0," which somehow caused the project to break upon deployment.
Anyway, I started over with a new XCode project file and got it to compile perfectly! Sorry for the bother.
The problem is the fact that it isnt ment to run on iOS. The reason it runs on he simulator is that it is building for a Intel chip set, not ARM. Even though you set it to armv6 it doesn't mean that the code will run on a non-intel device.
