In the Navigator area (left column), what do you see in the Breakpoint navigator (sixth tab)? What I'd expect is that at the bottom of the list of breakpoints, there would be a blue ∑ badge, named -[NSException raise]. Select it and press the delete key (or click the arrowhead to disable it).

The Xcode 4 way to break on exceptions is to click the + button at the bottom of the Breakpoint navigator and select Add Exception Breakpoint… from the ensuing popup menu.

(Caveat that I'm running through this with Xcode 4.3 on Lion. Your experience may vary.)


A mild, busybodyish remark: Xcode 4 is immature enough that every release represents a significant improvement. If you're stuck on Snow Leopard, you're stuck at 4.2.0. 4.2.1 fixed a number of crashes and corruptions. 4.3 (Lion-only, and I assume Mountain Lion as well) is a better experience than 4.2.1, not to mention its supporting current products.

You're two releases back on Xcode, and one (or nearly-two, if you're très moderne) back on the operating system. I can understand finding Lion annoying (the graphs at http://update.omnigroup.com/ show it hasn't reached 50% in what I'd expect to be an enthusiastic user base), but your professional need for current, less-buggy, and more-performant tools might outweigh the personal annoyances.

But you know your needs better than I do.
