Limited information to go on, but have you checked out this the fallowing?

Coded UI error: The following element is not longer availabe
This might be the annoying side effect of Windows Update KB2870699, update 4 for VS2012 is supposed to fix this but an alternative work around is simply to uninstall this update.
Getting started with xCode 4.6.3 and I'm running into a hiccup.
I've built a simple app using the UIWebView to display a local HTML file and it's contents. I used that to debug any issues with the HTML and/or image displays and I'm all set.
Now I need to recreate that within a larger project I've built with storyboards for all my navigations between multiple view controllers. My issue comes when I'm trying to control-click drag from the WebView into the ViewController.h code below the #interface like many tutorials show, and that worked fine within my smaller single view controller app. It won't do it. I know I'm missing something obvious here. Am I going to have the set up these screens (I have multiple ones to do this same way) as separate xib files and add them into my main project?
Thanks for any help and clarification.

You can create a class called for example myWebViewController and in Interface builder add a UIWebView to it. The control+drag to the header file will work.
Every time you want a UIViewController that has a browser in it, define its class as myWebViewController in Interface Builder.
Try not to repeat code. If you see UIViewControllers or any other UIView...that do the same thing, you can group them into a class that you use over and over.
I have implemented a test framework trough coded UI to test msaccess application which has some buttons and dialog boxes popping up.
i have a strange problem which is, when i use coded UI it actually captures the coordinates for the control. this executes all the tests when i run from the same machine but fails to run the tests wherever the resolution changes or screen re sizes.
please let me know the way by which i can call the controls from a vba application based on their control names or id rather then coordinates.
I don't think that the coordinates is the reason that your tests are failing. These coordinates are referred to the controls themselves just to simulate the exact point you clicked on the control.
See this link: Why are we using coordinate based actions in Coded UI Test?
I've written a Blackberry appliation with the Blackberry JDE, running on a 9000 simulator. I tested it a week or so ago and loaded it on a Blackberry 9000 phone, and everything worked just fine. Sometime between then and now, though, something went wrong.
My code does the whole moving arrow "loading things from the internet" or whatever thing, but no screens pop up. My original screen, which is just a MainScreen with a RichTextField doesn't load at all. This screen, at least, has most likely not changed in the passing week, so if something broke, it would be in one of the later screens/lines of code that it shouldn't even be getting to yet!
Is it possible that my .jad or .cod file are corrupted somehow? I noticed that when I first put code on my machine, I just stuck in the .cod file that Eclipse provided me. Then, last week, the .cod file it gave me didn't work, because it was ACTUALLY a zip file with a two .cod files inside of it. Using the .cod file with the same name as the .cod file they were in succesfully loaded my app. I did the same this time, and I don't get invalid cod file errors or anything, but the app is still as broken.
Is there some direction I should be looking? Is the issue likely to be in my code, the cod file, the phone, or somewhere completely else?

Edit: I've narrowed it down to the problem only occuring if I attempt to load a particular screen. My problem is that this screen is nearly identical to another screen that IS working just fine on the actual device. Both screens are generated from the same method (which makes a webservice call and gets XML back and parses it to populate the fields of the screen). The only difference is that the screen that is breaking is going to a different URL. This URL DOES work (both from a browser and from the simulated device), so I"m at a loss. The application doesn't seem to crash, (it's still running in the background), it just doesn't attempt to display anymore.
Edit:
Okay, I'm seeing some tunneling errors immediately after I load my app, (but before I execute any of my networking code). When i do execute my networking code, it works just fine, unless it happens to be for my "Rental" section. I commented out all calls to that, and made my menu item for Rentals simply make a print statement. The code behaves identically (it freezes, or displays a white screen after selecting the button). All other menu items work (including those that call threads or network methods). And the rentals menu sucessfully executes in the simulator.
private MenuItem _rentals = new MenuItem("My Rentals", 110,
10) {
public void run() {
//if the last thing I did was a rental
//just show the screen
//else, reload rentals
System.out.println("Rentals was selected");
displayError("Rentals was pressed");
// if(rental){
// System.out.println("It's a rental!");
// popScreen(getActiveScreen());
// pushScreen(_offeringsScreen);
// }else{
// System.out.println("Getting Rentals from scratch");
// RentalsThread _rThread = new RentalsThread();
// _rThread.start();
// }
}};
I'm at a complete loss here: The device debugger doesn't seem to even register me selecting the menu item, and not a single line of code executes! It just freezes! I'll try putting back in my RentalsThread call in the start of my program (which was also freezing) just to see if I can tease apart the problem with the Rentals Thread (which makes the Rental Screen), and the problem with the Rentals menu item.
Okay, I think I have this figured out.
1.) My code was still behaving identically even after commenting out everything because I wasn't rebuilding the .COD files (they automatically rebuild if you try to run it in the simulator, but don't when you're generating a .ALX file, for some reason).
2.) The code I had for generating the Rental Screen was adding things to said screen. Apparently this is all well and good on the simulator, but on the real device it's required that you do all graphics manipulation (even for graphics not yet displayed) in an event thread (I used invokeAndWait).
So, now everything seems to be working just fine. There wasn't anything wrong with my networking (nor did I think there was, because my other networking screen works just fine). I still don't know why I get all those weird tunneling network things before I start, but it doesn't seem to affect anything yet.

several suggestions:
if you have some background work with resources like file IO or networking, app just may stuck there... provide error handling and try to debug app from device!
code signing, check latest code update for API which require signing. But since there are no errors this is doubtful.
To debug on device, run Blackberry Device Manager, attach phone to usb, in eclipse select project, Context Menu -> Debug As -> Blackberry Device.

I am using 5 UIWebViews in a UIScrollView to show the result of my game. Intention is to allow the user to scroll through the results screen. I had a problem where the UIWebViews won't load when scrolled to the next page. This means the first page will load successfully however when you scroll to Page 2, you will see a white blank page. Page is loaded as I can see the alert which was given in all the 5 pages, but it won't show.
I tried a workaround as mentioned here
inserting various views into UIScrollView
http://pinchzoom.com/blog/items/view/1386/one-of-the-problems-with-the-uikit-at-the-moment-is-an-issue-embedding-a-uiwebview-within-a-table
This fixed my problem, however when I submitted the app to iTunes, it got rejected with the following comment.
"3.3.1 Applications may only use Documented APIs in the manner prescribed by Apple and must not use or call any private APIs."
The non-public API that is included in your application is _documentView
I would like to fix this issue and resubmit. Can someone help please ?
Thanks

Just use one WebView for all results (which will scroll if it doesn't fit into the screen).
