Xcode Interface Builder wont start

I have a relatively confusing problem: I created several empty Xcode projects and ran the iPhone and iPad emulators just to see what happens and everything is fine, empty, but fine. However, then I decided to actually add some content but when I double click my .xib file nothing happens. The Xcode loses focus, but nothing opens. The Interface Builder simply does not open.

Do I need to start it separately somehow or do I need to download and install it separately or something else altogether?

I had the same problem when i first installed xcode.

What solved it for me was manually starting the Interface Builder once (via spotlight).

After that it worked again by double clicking on the xib file in xcode....
