Answer 1

Simulator simulates iphone or ipad devices. An ipod does not have phone support. Check to see if the Telephony frameworks (or anything not supported on ipod devices) are marked as "Optional" not "Required" in the link binary with libraries section of Build Phases. If you require something not supported it may not run on an ipod device. I would expect to see an error to that effect though I don't know what it would look like.
