NAvigation bar doesn't appear - xcode

I'm developing a storyboard app with UITabBarController.
I want a UINavigationBar on one of the tab ViewControllers. I set the property Black NavigatonBar in ViewController property, and also drag navigationItem to this view.
NavigationBar is not visible in the viewVontroller when I run the app

It sounds like you're changing the pop up in the simulated metrics inspector. That inspector allows you to tell Xcode about things that will exist in your app that don't exist in the storyboard.
It sounds like you want to add a navigation controller into the storyboard to wrap one of the view controllers in your tab controller. You can do that in the editor menu by choosing the "Embed in" menu, and then choosing "Navigation Controller".
Choosing that item will insert a new navigation controller, make the selected view controller the root of the navigation controller, and re-route any segues that used to point at the selected to controller to point at the navigation controller instead.

Why doesn't "Navigation Item" show up in one of my ViewControllers in Interface Builder?

I have some working navigation between ViewControllers, using a UINavigationController.
But if you look in the image, you'll see my ViewControllers in InterfaceBuilder have an item called "Navigation Item" which showed up when connecting it to the UINavigationController.
However, the TutorialViewController doesn't have this. How do I get it to show up? I tried copying the Navigation Item from one controller and pasting it into another, but that didn't work.
The really weird thing is that if I use the button on the front page to go to the Tutorial page, the navigation works, shows a back button and everything.
Just drag & drop a Navigation Item from the object library onto your ViewController in InterfaceBuilder

Navigation Bar, Title and Buttons are hidden in View Controller

I have a problem with navigation bar not getting displayed in iOS 8 (Xcode beta 3). The View Controller is connected to a TableView Controller (embedded in a navigation controller) via Segue (Show/Push). As a result of this connection the View Controller shows a navigation bar.
Now when I to place a custom navigation bar with controls over the inferred navigation bar, it gets hidden. What could be the problem? I do not want to hide the navigation bar via code.Is there any way I can specify Send to Front option for my custom navigation bar?
I have resolved this issue by adding navigation item instead of custom navigation bar. Then added the button bar items to the navigation item. Now the title and the controls are getting displayed.

How do I add a tab on a viewcontroller that doesnt have an icon on its own in xcode?

How do I add a tab on a viewcontroller that doesnt have a tab icon on its own ?
I created a tab controller which is linked to major view controllers that has their own icon. but what about minor controllers? i want minor controllers to have a tab controller on their lower screen, which has icons linked on the major view controllers.

How do I add an "add" button to a tab in a uitableviewcontroller within a uitabbarcontroller?

xcode 4.6
using Storyboards
When I drag a Bar Button Item to the navigation bar at the top of one of the UITableViewControllers that are children of the UITabBarController xcode creates a new navigation bar at the bottom of the page instead of adding the button where I dropped it. I would be ok with this, but when I run the app the bottom navigation bar never shows up, so my button is never displayed.
If you need to visualize the app, picture the following: Root controller displays a list of accounts. When an account is clicked a tab controller lists tabs for opportunities and contacts. I need the ability to add opportunities and contacts from the relevant tab
Any help is greatly appreciated.
EDIT
I am not sure if this is the correct solution or not. I have embedded the uitableviewcontrollers in navigation controllers, which appears to have fixed the problem.
Follow-up question - Is this the correct way to handle this situation?
Yes, that is the correct way to handle this situation.
You should embed the view controller inside a navigation controller by clicking the view controller in your storyboard and using the Xcode menu "Editor" > "Embed In" > "Navigation Controller".

XCode, Storyboard, View Controller items are not being displayed

When opening up a project today, there is some weird behavior in XCode. Things have disappeared in the storyboard view like the NavigationBar in viewController, the buttons associated with it, etc. I can see in the Scene list that they still exist. Is there any way to have these show up again?
You probably need to add a navigation controller to your storyboard and make your view controller the root. You cannot simply set the top bar in simulated metrics in storyboard to navigation bar.
