This document provides steps to fix an app that is stuck after an update by modifying an XML file, replacing its contents, copying the file back to the device, restarting the app, and restoring the original XML file.
1. If you just updated and are stuck on this screen here is how to fix it.
1) Plug your device into your computer and open iTunes.
2) In the Apps section, locate the Multi-Year app under file sharing.
3) Browse through the files and locate the MCDay1.xml file.
4) Save that to your desktop.
5) Rename the file you saved to your desktop as MCDay1_bkup.xml
6) Make a copy of that file and rename the copy as MCDay1.xml
7) Open the MCDay1.xml file with a text editor.
8) Replace the contents of the MCDay1.xml file with the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<array>
<key>FiberType</key>
<integer>3</integer>
</array>
</plist>
9) Save the MCDay1.xml file
10) In iTunes file sharing, copy the MCDay1.xml from your desktop over to your device, replacing the existing file on your device
11) Kill the Multi-Year app on your device, making sure it's not running in the background. Then relaunch the app.
