I am running Yosemite 10.10.4 on a Macbook Air. I have a number of Xcode projects that worked successfully under Xcode 6.4. However, I downloaded Xcode 5.02 from Apple in order to use the Big Nerd Ranch book "IOS Programming" which is written for Xcode 5. Any time I open a xib file, Xcode crashes. As suggested, I opened the console app,found the crash log, and copied it.
