OK Nevermind, something weird with the size of the simulator window. I scrolled up and the textbox and button showed up . No throwing the mac out the window for now…
Yaaay! I suppose that’s a good tip for anyone who encounters the same issue later: With Apple’s war on scrollbars, it’s not always obvious if the simulator is running in a scaled mode and may be hiding some content.
I’m working my way through Objective-C Programming 2nd Edition and after banging in the code on page 247 I have this same problem;i.e., the window appears with a white background color, but there’s nothing on that window. I’m a newbie with obj-c, if this problem has already been solved please direct me to the solution post - I can’t find it. My XCode is: Version 5.1 (5B130a). The simulator is: Version 7.1 (463.9.41). Thanks.
Look’s like I’m good now. I had the scrolling issue mentioned earlier and I also had to comment out one of the auto-generated lines:
// self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
Once I removed that line the items appeared in the window.
I have the same problem as the OP. When I press insert nothing happens, console empty as well. Keyboard is still there. This is my code:
BNRAppDelegate.h:

found my mistake:
You have to use TouchUpInside not Outside.
I succeeded in first time, but this appeared in second time, so it must not be version problem.
Add the highlighted lines of code in your AppDelegate.m. It worked for me, hopefully it works out for you as well.
CGRect winFrame = [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds];
UIWindow *theWindow = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame];
self.window = theWindow;
[b][i]self.window.rootViewController = [[UIViewController alloc] init];[/i][/b]This solved the problem for me, thank you!
Using Xcode 8.3.2, Simulator 10.0
This worked for me also, thank you!
worked to display but my UI is still unresponsive.
