I need help.

I am trying to perform a manual segue, but I also need to send some data over to the destination view controller.

Use the prepareForSegue:sender: method to pass data from the source to destination view controller:

- (void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender
{
    if ([segue.identifier isEqualToString:...]) {
        MyViewController *controller = (MyViewController *)segue.destinationViewController;
        controller.myProperty1 = ...;
        controller.myProperty2 = ...;
    }
}
