Who owns the view controller? Apparently, no-one, sine ARC is deallocating it once the last reference to it (the tab view item) is deallocated. If there is supposed to be an owner, make sure the owner’s reference is strong. If you can target 10.10+, using NSTabViewController is probably a better choice.
