Iphone to Ipad programming and submitting

I recently finished an app that I worked on. Only for iphone. But i've had problems lately submitting this app to itunes. According to them the app crashes immediately during launch. I've tested and tested on many iphones and could no get it to crash.

Then finally I tried ipad. I must've missed this one and never went in my head. When I made my app I chose only for iPhone. But I guess iTunes/apple wants it for both Ipad and Iphone. Now I have my app set on universal which works for both devices.

My problem is that when i launch my app onto the ipad, my app only shows in small resolution and it's in on the top left corner of the ipad's screen. My app works except when the user has to pick a picture from his library. Normally on the iphone this works with no problem. But the ipad crashes...

My question is that, is there any easy way to make my app work on the ipad just the way it works on the iphone? I really don't know how else I can ask this question.

Your app doesn't have to be universal, but it does have to run on the iPad in compatibility mode. From the App Review Guidelines:

iPhone apps must also run on iPad without modification, at iPhone resolution, and at 2X iPhone 3GS resolution

If you're going to make your app universal, you'll need to do some extra work to make it adjust to the available screen size and function properly as an iPad app. No matter what you do, you should definitely test on an iPad (as you've discovered). I'd skip the universal app, at least for now, and go back to making a iPhone app. Find and fix whatever problems occur on the iPad in compatibility mode, and you'll soon have an app that you can submit successfully. Once you've got your app in the App Store, you can spend some time reworking it to make it universal.
