You are absolutely right: it turned out to be wrong settings:
1. Target → Info → Application requires iPhone environment was YES
2. Bild Settings → Deployment → Targeted Device Family was just iPhone
The first one I found early, the second one many hours after asking the list.
I think this is a general Xcode problem: starting with the right template everything is very smooth.
But changing directions later (like iPhone only to universal, or non-document-based to document-based) is kind of difficult - there are so many settings which may or may not be relevant.
It would be rather nice if Xcode allowed me formulate a wish (like "This project should be universal") and it answered with a list of things which must be (or probably should be) done:
Like: "Targeted Device Family must be changed to iPhone/iPad" and some buttons: "Show me" and: "Please do it for me".
Followed by: "Read more about this in the xxx-Guide" with a helpful button: "Open in Browser".
Such a list probably cannot be exhaustive (even if following all suggestions, some problems might remain) but it would very helpful indeed.
Kind regards,
Gerriet.
