UIImagePickerController crash only on iOS 7 - iPad

Question

I'm getting hundreds of crashes from one of my live apps ever since people started upgrading to iOS 7. Has anyone else seen this problem? Nothing reproduces on my iPad 3 with iOS 7...

Collectively we've come to the conclusion that this is a bug in iOS 7 on iPad. It occurs when you attempt to show a UIImagePickerController in a UIPopoverControl from a UIBarButtonItem for the first time. After the user grants permission to their photo album the crash happens. It appears the solution for now is to request permission to photos before opening the UIPopoverControl. Here is how I implemented my solution:

// Photo Library
if ([UIImagePickerController isSourceTypeAvailable:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary])
{
    void(^blk)() =  ^() {
        UIImagePickerController* picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
        picker.delegate = self;
        picker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary;
        if (NIIsPad()) {
            UIPopoverController* popover = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:picker];
            [popover presentPopoverFromBarButtonItem:self.popoverAnchor permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny animated:YES];
        } else {
            [self.navigationController presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];
        }
    };

    // Make sure we have permission, otherwise request it first
    ALAssetsLibrary* assetsLibrary = [[ALAssetsLibrary alloc] init];
    ALAuthorizationStatus authStatus;
    if (IOS_VERSION_GREATER_THAN_OR_EQUAL_TO(@"6.0"))
        authStatus = [ALAssetsLibrary authorizationStatus];
    else
        authStatus = ALAuthorizationStatusAuthorized;

    if (authStatus == ALAuthorizationStatusAuthorized) {
        blk();
    } else if (authStatus == ALAuthorizationStatusDenied || authStatus == ALAuthorizationStatusRestricted) {
        [[UIAlertView alertViewWithTitle:@"Grant photos permission" message:@"Grant permission to your photos. Go to Settings App > Privacy > Photos."] show];
    } else if (authStatus == ALAuthorizationStatusNotDetermined) {
        [assetsLibrary enumerateGroupsWithTypes:ALAssetsGroupAll usingBlock:^(ALAssetsGroup *group, BOOL *stop) {
            // Catch the final iteration, ignore the rest
            if (group == nil)
                dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
                    blk();
                });
            *stop = YES;
        } failureBlock:^(NSError *error) {
            // failure :(
            dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
                [[UIAlertView alertViewWithTitle:@"Grant photos permission" message:@"Grant permission to your photos. Go to Settings App > Privacy > Photos."] show];
            });
        }];
    }
}

Don't forget to add AssetsLibrary.framework to your project.

I was having the same issue.

I had a UIImagePickerController displayed inside a UIPopoverController with the size defined by UIImagePickerController's contentSizeForViewInPopover function.
To fix this issue I changed UIPopoverController size to UIImagePickerController's preferredContentSize function.

您可以使用自定义框架并加载弹出窗口，如下所示

[popOver presentPopoverFromRect:CGRectMake(self.view.frame.size.width-50, 50, 10, 10) inView:self.view permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny animated:YES];
