My iOS track seems to be broken... can anybody help?

When I go to the "Tracks" tab, I see all available tracks as usual, but the iOS track, which I am working on, shows "0 hours" in the completion time (I have not finished the course).

Additionally, when I click for the details of the track, the courses that I have completed are mostly missing.

The last thing that I did was a code challenge within the "Swift Closures" section, and I experienced some kind of server error when trying to move on to the next video. Now, I don't see the Swift Closures anywhere in the course, and "Resume Track" takes me to a video on delegates much further on in the track.

Any ideas? Help is much appreciated. Thanks!

Most of the material in the Swift track was outdated. The Swift language has moved forwards since then, and is still evolving. Because of this, another track for Swift 2 was created. The Swift 2 track contains the most up-to-date information on the Swift language that Team Treehouse currently has. It covers the same material as the Swift track, but with the more up-to-date syntax and features of the language. To my knowledge, the existence of both the Swift track and the Swift 2 track has caused a lot of confusion. I believe it was kept for so long because the Swift 2 courses had not yet caught up to the material taught in the Swift track. However, the Team Treehouse staff has made a huge effort to amend that, and has made the Swift track mostly obsolete. I believe that's why they deleted most of the Swift track.

I would recommend switching to the Swift 2 track (link here), and then perusing the Library under iOS (link here) for more Swift 2 courses. The courses are listed in the order in which they were released, with the newest courses first.

I hope this helps!
