Part of the art of asking questions is to ask the question to which you really want to know the answer, not some other question. In this case, it would seem that the question is how to delay the launch of the application until some other stuff has happened. How about a "splash screen"? For an example, take a look at my Diary app; it's very crude, but I use it every day so it must be good for something. :) It puts up a splash screen with an animated indication suggesting that "stuff is going on, just wait" until the CoreData back end has finished loading up the data. m.
