I've just started learning about how to code iPhone & iPad applications. I was going to go down the MonoTouch route but decided I'd like to learn another programming language so I'm going down the Objective-C path.

 

I bought The Big Nerd Ranch Guide from Amazon a few weeks back and only in the last few days have I had enough time to begin going through it. My MacBook has the latest version of Xcode(4.2) on it which seems to have a few issues & differences from the older version of Xcode (4.1) which the book is based on.

 

The big issue is that now the Empty Window Template that Xcode generates no longer includes the MainWindow.xib file, this makes it impossible to start working through the book, there are a few ways to fix this:

 

1. Download the modified template file from The Big Nerd Ranch forum
   
   
2. Follow this tutorials and create your own MainWindow.xib file
