iOS Implementing Designs for iPhone Customizing Table View Controllers Styling the Navigation Bar

Neither "NSForegroundColorAttributeName" nor "UITextAttributeTextColor" work!

The recommended workaround for the 3rd part of coding challenge 1 in this stage does not work.

Neither "NSForegroundColorAttributeName" nor "UITextAttributeTextColor" works for me. The debugger "Preview" does not give any feedback. I copied and pasted the recommended workaround from the comments.

On iOS the Preview says that it does no find the instance method -setTitleTextAttributes. I already tried dot notation because the documentation does only mention the property titleTextAttribute (while it mentions other setters)

If you are still having this problem (and for all those who'll probably have the same problem in the future), you should read the task carefully.

It is asking you to change the text color of the buttons in the navigation bar, not the title text color. So the solution is actually really simple (it is the last line from the video):

[[UINavigationBar appearance] setTintColor:[UIColor whiteColor]];

I hope it helps as I was stuck on this seemingly easy challenge for a few minutes.
