Any help is greatly appreciated!

Please provide your DesiredCapabilities for more assistance. Try going through the questions in my answer and see if one of those things seems to be the problem. — Jess, Sep 23 '14 at 16:28
I'm getting the same JS complaint with appium/bootstrap/bootstrap-dea1a1242b3bfb9b.js on line 2965 using the iOS Simulator with iPhone 5 + 7.1. — kiminoa, Mar 06 '15 at 20:33

Debugging Real Device automation for iOS

These are the things you should check for to debug your Real Device automation problems.

Is the device "Setup for Development" in Xcode?
Is the device unlocked?
Are you giving it an .ipa to install?
- Make sure the .ipa is signed with a Development certificate
- .app or .xcarchive files will not work on real devices.
Are you giving it the bundle id of an already installed application?
- Was that app deployed to the device for Development or Distribution?
- Appium cannot automate apps installed via:
  - the App Store
  - An MDM solution (unless the TestFlight app is signed with a Development certificate)

1) YES 2) YES 3) YES (IPA file signed with developer profile) 4) NO. 4a) Development – Ramesh Sangili Sep 23 '14 at 18:47
You need to unlock the device before starting Appium. If you need to unlock it via a passcode, Instruments won't start – Jess Sep 23 '14 at 18:48
This is one of many reasons why Real Device automation for iOS is not recommended – Jess Sep 23 '14 at 18:49
The device is unlocked. Why still I see the issue? – Ramesh Sangili Sep 23 '14 at 19:48
Paste your client-side code in your question and I'll see what else might be going on – Jess Sep 23 '14 at 19:50
I am using appium.app. Please refer this case for more detailshttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/26003675/appium-not-able-to-launch-the-inspector – Ramesh Sangili Sep 23 '14 at 21:39
Uncheck "app"! If you set bundleid, it will use the bundleid to find the .ipa that is on your device. – Jess Sep 23 '14 at 22:36
Try removing platformVersion from your capabilities! I had this issue hanging for a week, the app compiled for iOS 7.1 crashed instruments on the start. After removing this cap the simulator ran fine! – Clergyman Oct 14 '14 at 13:26
