   Hi guys!
   I've recently developed a game using Cocos2d. The game ran fine on my iPhone and the simulator. Apple approved it, so I guess it ran well on their devices as well. Now the game is in the AppStore and I asked a friend to check it out.
   He uses an iPod touch (latest OS version), but the game crashes on startup (just returns to the app overview). He tried to install it again, but the problem remains.

   So here's my question:
   How is that possible? I thought all Apple devices were the same (hardware + OS). So how can it run on so many devices, but crash on my friends iPod? Do you have any GENERAL idea how to solve this problem?

   There are different OS versions, since your friend is using an iPod I bet his OS version might be older than 3.0 ?

   It sounds like your app crashes for some reason. Generally speaking, crash dumps (information on when and how an app crashed) are automatically uploaded to Apple's servers where you can look at them. Log into iTunes Connect, find your app and look for a button called "Crash Logs" (or something like that). If any have been reported, you should be able to retrieve them there to see what might be going wrong.

   most possible - his iPod is out of memory. try to restart it and see if it works

   also - contrary to what Apple might say, iPods and iPhones OSs differ. we had a case when we added twitter engine, it worked perfectly fine on all iPhones. but OS 2.2.1 for iPods didn't bundle NSXML library, so it crashed on all 2.2.1 iPods

   take a look on the dump logs, or even try to connect his iPod to your SDK, install the game and observe debug or breakpoints
