Default Caused an error in which even the company's program doesn't work

I'm one chapter 5 and I finished coding for the Scrambler game yet when I ran it all I got was a black screen. This probably has something to do with my incomplete implementation of the scramble player message I get when I run it (I came to this realization after I attempted what I'm about to tell you), but this is part of the problem. In trying to find the root of my problem, I opened up the original code that I downloaded from this site. I ran that program and it worked as it should. After running it I checked the button labels in the ViewController.xib file to make sure that I had the right connections and by accident, I deleted the label text on one of the buttons, I put the text back in, but when I ran it again, I get the black screen. I redownloaded the program and saved the file over my current one yet when I run it I still get the black screen, so now my program and the correct program don't work, has anyone had a similar problem?

Ran the sample program after I got back from work and it turns out a reboot was all it needed in order to run. Ran my program and to answer your question, yes there was an error message in the console log and looking at I realized that some instances of "scrambleWord" were spelled "scrambledWords". I corrected it ran it and it works fine, Problem solved!
