In the interface declaration, the '<' and '> characters are faultily represented with & lt; and & gt; (I've put spaces in the text here to prevent any HTML renderer to replace them) |

Mobi | Page 78 Kindle Location 1549, Code sample at top of of page - starts with "- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tv didSelectRowAtIndexPath" |
MOBI format in Kindle app on both iPad and Mac loses the space between "tv" and "didSelectRowAtIndexPath" causing an error in the line. |

Page 89 and 162 First paragraph |
Pages 89 and 162 (printed page number in the PDF) both refer to RootController.m, but there are no other references to that file. I assume this is a reference to GCViewController.m that got missed in a global search/replace. |

Page 90 & 269 Last few paragraphs |
References are made to "CGAppDelegate.m" which does not exist in these apps. |

These paragraphs mention that there is a subtle bug in the CityGuide3 application relating to the city textfield losing its text after using the image picker. Yet deploying and testing on an iPhone 5 with 6.1.4 and following the steps that supposedly show the bug the bug does not represent itself. The text still remains in the city textfield even after returning from the picker. Is this perhaps an issue that has been fixed within iOS since the writing of the book? |

Is there a reason that newCity.cityPicture is set to nil and then to cityPicture? |

The example using the TwitterTrends class no longer works because Twitter has deprecated the 1.0 API. This means you will get a 410 error code back when running the example. The example needs to be updated to the 1.1 version of the Twitter API. |
