You should verify that the file actually is in the bundle.
You can do that by right-clicking the built bundle (in your project's DerivedData folder) and select "Show Package Contents". If you don't know how to locate the built product, do an Archive Build targeting a device (archive builds are unavailable for simulators). In the Organizer window that opens right-click the app and select "Show in Finder", that brings you to the xcarchive. Run "show package contents" on the xcarchive and navigate to /Products/Applications and perform another "show package contents" on the bundle.
If the file is there but in a subfolder (not in the root of the bundle) then you have created a folder reference inside Xcode, denoted by the blue folder icon. Remove that and re-add, this time uncheck the checkbox "create folder references for..." in the Add File dialog.
If the file IS there, copy its filename and paste it back into code. Case differences can sometimes be elusive and hard to notice, even if you double-check.
