[EmployeeDirectory.iOS (iOS 6)] Freezes if you double tap on search, switch search categeory, then search after a clean install

[ChrisBlackman]

Hi guys,

On iOS 6, if you deploy this app as a clean install, the app will freeze if you take the following steps:

• Log into the app
• Double tap on the search bar near the middle so that a search category other than 'Name' will be selected before the categories actually appear from under the search bar (I've only tested with selecting 'Dept')
• Select another category, such as as 'Name'
• Start typing into the keyboard

If you follow these steps exactly, the app will freeze when typing the first letter. If the steps aren't followed exactly, then searching will probably work fine and continue working fine, and in order to get the bug back happening again you will have to uninstall the app and start again from a clean install.

This only happens on iOS 6 devices.

I've tried debugging it, but no exceptions are thrown. Also, if you use break points in the searching methods then the search will work correctly, making it incredibly difficult to debug.
