Amit is using an older version of Xcode. In version 5.1.1, I don't see an "Identifier" field in the Attributes Inspector.

...my screenshot is from the Diary app, since I haven't done the Blog Reader course yet, but the same concepts still apply.

1,773 PointsThanks Ben,
Okay yes before I only had the Screen View highlighted, not the individual cell. Thanks for the tip. I have to say, I find Amit's videos unclear and frustrating to follow.

3,167 PointsSorry to hear you are having trouble. I like Amit's videos way better than Ash Furrow's videos (iOS Diary app), because Amit generally is slow and the videos generally highlight where you are supposed to click. Ash's videos seem a bit rushed, and I'm constantly having to pause and rewind to catch everything. I'm sure it gets easier with practice though, and an understanding of Xcode and common actions.
