How to find crash logs for iPhone applications on Mac, Vista and XP
In three major operations systems: Mac OS X, Windows Vista / Windows 7 and for Windows XP.
iTunes sync
Application crash logs are transfered to your computer each time you do a sync with the device, in the iTunes. Thus, first step is to sync with iTunes:
There’s the .crash file and .plist file - archive them both and send to a developer. Actually, pick all the files you find there that have the name of the problematic application.
AppData folder is hidden by default, so here’s how to access it. Get into your personal folder:
Now click on the folder (address) bar which will change the display into Windows folder path and add \AppData to it, then click Enter.
This will then show the folder contents. From here, you can follow the path above until you get to the crash logs.
For Windows 7, follow the same procedure.
Windows XP
Location is here:
1
C:\Documents and Settings\<USERNAME>\Application Data\Apple computer\Logs\CrashReporter/<DEVICE_NAME>
is your login username. Application Data folder is usually hidden by default, so you need to reveal it in the same way as in Vista – by typing in and pressing Enter.
