I am trying to modify a newly placed UITabBarItem item from a UIViewController to a UINavigationController in XCode 4.

Here is a screenshot of a new view controller called “Near Me” and existing view controllers.

enter image description here

Notice how the new one is a UIViewController, I need this changed to a UINavigationController.

Something as simple as this was easily done in Xcode 3.2 and now that Apple has introduced Xcode 4 – it is just horribly difficult to re-learn this new IDE.

    You shouldn’t modify a UIViewController to be a UINavigationController. Even though a UINavigationController is a subclass of UIViewController, its job is to manage other View Controllers, not Views.

    In IB you should create a UINavigationController and then set the existing UIViewController as the root controller of the new UINavigationController.
