Without seeing more of the surrounding code I can't give a definite answer, but I have two theories.

You're not using UIViewController's designated initializer initWithNibName:bundle:. Try using it instead of just init.
Also, self may be one of the tab bar controller's view controllers. Always present view controllers from the topmost view controller, which means in this case ask the tab bar controller to present the overlay view controller on behalf of the view controller. You can still keep any callback delegates to the real view controller, but you must have the tab bar controller present and dismiss.

Actually you need to wait till the push animation ends  So you can delegate UINavigationController and prevent pushing till the animation ends   -  void navigationController  UINavigationController   navigationController didShowViewController  UIViewController   viewController animated  BOOL animated      waitNavigation   NO      - void showGScreen  id gvc       if   waitNavigation            waitNavigation   YES            nav popToRootViewControllerAnimated NO             nav pushViewController gvc animated YES

I had the same problem  I called a method inside viewDidLoad inside my first UIViewController  -  void viewDidLoad       super viewDidLoad         self performSelector  selector loadingView                 withObject nil afterDelay 0 5      -  void loadingView        self performSegueWithIdentifier   loadedData  sender self       Inside the second UIViewController I did the same also with 0 5 seconds delay  After changing the delay to a higher value  it worked fine  It s like the segue can t be performed too fast after another segue

I had lot of problem with the same issue  I solved this one by   Initiating the ViewController using the storyboad instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier method  i e Intro  vc    self storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier   introVC     self tabBarController presentModalViewController   vc animated YES     I have the viewcontroller in my storyboard  for some reason using only   introvc alloc  init   did not work for me

I solved it by writing   self navigationController presentViewController viewController                                          animated TRUE                                        completion NULL

Another solution for many cases is to make sure that the transition between UIViewControllers happens after the not-suitable  like during initialization  procedure finishes  by doing     weak MyViewController  weakSelf   self  dispatch async dispatch get main queue            weakSelf presentViewController vc animated YES         This is general for also pushViewController animated   etc

I had the same problem when I need to Present My Login View Controller from another View Controller If the the User is t authorized  I did it in ViewDidLoad Method of my Another View Controller   if not authorized -  presentModalViewController    When I start to make it in ViewDidAppear method  I solved this problem  I Think that ViewDidLoad only initialize properties and after that the actual showing view algorithm begins  Thats why you must use viewDidAppear method to make modal transitions

I had the same problem and thought I would post in case someone else runs into something similar   In my case  I had attached a long press gesture recognizer to my UITableViewController   UILongPressGestureRecognizer  longPressGesture      UILongPressGestureRecognizer alloc                                                     initWithTarget self                                                    action  selector onLongPress                                                      autorelease    longPressGesture setMinimumPressDuration 1    self tableView addGestureRecognizer longPressGesture     In my onLongPress selector  I launched my next view controller   -  IBAction onLongPress  id sender        SomeViewController  page     SomeViewController alloc  initWithNibName   SomeViewController  bundle nil         self navigationController pushViewController page animated YES         page release        In my case  I received the error message because the long press recognizer fired more than one time and as a result  my  SomeViewController  was pushed onto the stack multiple times    The solution was to add a boolean to indicate when the SomeViewController had been pushed onto the stack   When my UITableViewController s viewWillAppear method was called  I set the boolean back to NO

As posted by danh  You can generate this warning by presenting the modal vc before the app is done initializing  i e  Start a tabbed application template app and present a modal vc on top of self tabBarController as the last line in application didFinishLaunching  Warning appears  Solution  let the stack unwind first  present the modal vc in another method  invoked with a performSelector withDelay 0 0  Try to move the method into the viewWillAppear and guard it so it does get executed just once  would recommend setting up a property

I had the same error  I have a tab bar with 3 items and I was unconsciously trying to call the root view controller of item 1 in the item 2 of my tab bar using performSegueWithIdentifier   What happens is that it calls the view controller and goes back to the root view controller of item 2 after a few seconds and logs that error   Apparently  you cannot call the root view controller of an item to another item    So instead of performSegueWithIdentifier   I used  self parentViewController tabBarController setSelectedIndex 0    Hope this helps someone

I had the same issue  When developing I wanted to bypass screens  I was navigating from one view controller to another in viewDidLoad by calling a selector method    The issue is that we should let the ViewController finish transitioning before transitioning to another ViewController      This solved my problem  The delay is necessary to allow ViewControllers finish transitioning before transitioning to another    self perform  selector YOUR SELECTOR METHOD   with  self  afterDelay  0 5

I found that  if you are using a storyboard  you will want to put the code that is presenting the new view controller in viewDidAppear  It will also get rid of the  Presenting view controllers on detached view controllers is discouraged  warning

For me this error occurred because i didn t have UIWindow declared in the upper level of my class when setting a root view controller             rootViewController  showTimeoutAlert   showTimeOut             let navigationController   SwipeNavigationController rootViewController  rootViewController               self window   UIWindow frame  UIScreen main bounds              self window  rootViewController   navigationController             self window  makeKeyAndVisible    Ex if I tried declaring window in that block of code instead of referencing self then I would receive the error

As  danh suggested  my issue was that I was presenting the modal vc before the UITabBarController was ready  However  I felt uncomfortable relying on a fixed delay before presenting the view controller  from my testing  I needed to use a 0 05-0 1s delay in performSelector withDelay    My solution is to add a block that gets called on UITabBarController s viewDidAppear  method   PRTabBarController h    interface PRTabBarController   UITabBarController   property  nonatomic  copy  void   viewDidAppearBlock  BOOL animated     end   PRTabBarController m    import  PRTabBarController h    implementation PRTabBarController  -  void viewDidAppear  BOOL animated        super viewDidAppear animated       if  self viewDidAppearBlock            self viewDidAppearBlock animated             end   Now in application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions   PRTabBarController  tabBarController     PRTabBarController alloc  init       UIWindow initialization  etc     weak typeof tabBarController  weakTabBarController   tabBarController  tabBarController viewDidAppearBlock     BOOL animated        MyViewController  viewController    MyViewController new       viewController modalPresentationStyle   UIModalPresentationOverFullScreen      UINavigationController  navigationController     UINavigationController alloc  initWithRootViewController viewController        weakTabBarController tabBarController presentViewController navigationController animated NO completion nil       weakTabBarController viewDidAppearBlock   nil

I encountered this error when I hooked a UIButton to a storyboard segue action  in IB  but later decided to have the button programatically call performSegueWithIdentifier forgetting to remove the first one from IB   In essence it performed the segue call twice  gave this error and actually pushed my view twice   The fix was to remove one of the segue calls   Hope this helps someone as tired as me
