I am using Three20 framework and trying to presentViewController on top of navigationController. I am not sure how its been done with Three20 framework, any guru's out there who have touched this framework might help me with this?
Thanks.
There is "limited support" for iPad & multiple view controllers on the same screen. I would avoid using the TTNavigator and the view controllers url mapping. you can just push and present your TTViewController classes using the standard self.navigationController work flow
PS, by "limited support" I mean horrible, buggy and useless support.

I have seen some tutorials about iphone development, but they're before ARC and before storyboard it seems.
The guy creates a switch that will switch between two views.
A class with a blue background, and a class with a red background.
How would you do this in IOS5 with storyboard?
I've heard about segues, but they get a 'back' button, which the guy in the tutorial didnt get - he simply changed between views my tapping the switch/button.
You better go through this tutorials to understand how to develop app in IOS 5. The tutorials, which you have already seen are for ios4 and prior to it. Also you can use those in IOS 5 too. But Storyboard is much easier than XIB.

Anyway #dew given you the correct answer.
You need to add 2 View Controllers into your storyboard and then embed in navigation controller. After you create some button in one view, you just gotta ctrl-drag it to the other view and select push, that should do it. Or simply chech out this tutorial http://maybelost.com/2011/10/tutorial-storyboard-in-xcode-4-2-with-navigation-controller-and-tabbar-controller-part1/ :)
I would highly suggest watching the first 2 or 3 lectures of Stanford's CS193P introductory iPhone programming course. It's free and will start you off on the right foot. It's also targeted for iOS5 and Xcode 4. Check it out at:

To answer your question, moving between view controllers is usually done using a container controller or pushing view controllers 'modally'. I would suggest reading the View Controller Programming Guide put out by apple for an overview of how these things work.
In iOS5 you can use storyboards to set-up segues (as you suggested). They don't always 'give you a back' button, only when you segue between view controllers within a navigation controller. You can have a button push a view controller onto a screen by setting up target-action.
Again, the iTunesU lectures will cover all this. Check it out!
I'm new to iOS development and am working on this app that has a similar interface to the official Twitter app. However, I'm not sure how to organize the view controllers and the hierarchy, especially for UITabBar and UINavigationBar (which one is the parent controller?).
Can you guys point me to the right direction? I started from a blank window-based application project. A list of view controllers in the order of the hierarchy would be really helpful. Thank you.
Make the TabBar Controller your root controller. Then, in every tab where you need navigation, use Navigation Controller. It will add Navigation Bars, which you can then modify either in IB (where it applies), or programmatically.
I am working with developing an iPad application. In that i have to display two table views and one web view in a single view. UISplitViewController allows to add two controller only. Please any one help me.
UISplitViewController cannot be configured to use more than 2 sections. If you want to have this functionality in a view controller, you have to write your own. Matt Gemmell's open-source MGSplitViewController might be a good place to start your coding.
Of course, you can also just add the three views as subviews to a plain UIViewController subclass.
I've got a UISearchBar in my view, and when the results button is pressed I'd like it to load in a new view. Is this possible without using a navigation controller?
I'm new to iPhone development so not entirely sure if moving between views is solely reliable on a navigation controller or not. From all the examples I've seen using pushViewController, it seems to look that way. Hoping I'm proven wrong.
UINavigationController provides the simplest way to manage a stack of view controllers, but it's not necessary by any means; you can move your views around, and add and remove them from the hierarchy, however you like. Can you elaborate on what you're trying to do, and why you want to avoid using a navigation controller?
I've been playing around with the iPad SDK looking for ways to improve my current iPhone app. I've got a couple place where I think the new "SplitView" would look pretty good. My question is if it's possible to navigate to a "SplitView" with my current navigation based application? Mainly I'm not sure how to push that SplitViewController onto my current stack of views. Any thoughts?
It should always be the root controller according to Apple.
The split view controller’s view
should always be installed as the root
view of your application window. You
should never present a split view
inside of a navigation or tab bar
interface.
You can use a UISplitViewController in a UITabBarController without any problems. I have not attempted to push a UISplitViewController into an UINavigationController however.
(At least) with iOS 8 (which runs on any ipad except the first one) it's possible to use a "present modally"-segue to display a splitviewcontroller.
Drawback is that an existing navigation bar isn't displayed.
Check out the Multiple Detail Views sample app on Apple's Documentation, this could give you a good idea on how to deal with navigation structure and how to display views on the "splitViewController".
