Custom Tab Bar with StoryBoard and Xcode 4.2 - iphone

I've designed my iPhone app in Photoshop and now I have all the PNG files of my project.
I have Xcode 4.2 and iOS 5. What I would like to do is to customize the tab bar of my app. I've done the things on storyboard, but I do not know how to implement the PNG tab bar in the storyboard. I've written the source code of the customized tab bar, but when I run it in the simulator it doesn't display the ViewController which IS already done on the StoryBord.
So, the question is: how to attach the new tab bar design with Xcode Storyboard?

If you've subclassed the UITabBar and written code to customize it, you'll need to set the tab bar's class to your subclass in the identity inspector. Click the tab bar in your storyboard and set it's class:
Then it should begin using your custom code.

How do I add a tab bar to the storyboard of an existing project?

I have used storyboard for the very fist time. The app is 80% complete by now and became slightly more complex than I thought originally. I think the user experience could be improved by using a tab view for the application and separate certain parts into tabs so that the user can easily switch between them. I am familiar with building tab bar apps programmatically and using IB classic (w/o storyboard) but I am currently a bit lost. How do I add a tab bar controller to the storyboard of an existing project?

create UITabbarController with UITableViewController xib in xcode 4.3

I'm new in iPhone, I want to create UItabbarController with 4 tabs, each tab contains UItableViewControllers in xib for both iPhone and iPad and want (h & m) files for each table.
Consider that I'm using Xcode 4.3 with iPhone 5.1 and I'm not want to use storyboard.
is there are any good tutorial to do this?
Thanks in advance.
First of all you do not need to create a new UItabbarController.You can use default tabbar controller and what you need is adding 4 tab bar items as UItableViewControllers to uitabbar controller.
You can refer to this tutorial about tabbabcontrollers

How to set the image for UINavigation bar which is supported from 3.2 version

I am new to iphone.I have a small doubt that is How can we set the background image of navigation bar.If in the later versions there is an api for setbackgroundimage but my application wants to support it from version 3.2 so this api is not useful for me .So, how can i place an image to the navigation bar.If any body know this please help me...
If you want to show custom view as Navigation bar you can do following steps:
1) Hide Navigation bar
2) Put ur custom view on top
Or
Instead of putting custom views in xib (If you have lots of xibs) then create custom VC and use it as super view for each VC in your project so that it will inherit automatically.

Hide a Tab bar Item in Xcode 4

I have a tab bar controller with a logginViewController, and I want to hide the tab bar item related to logginViewController and show a different tab bar item with a different ViewController
I'm working using Storyboard in a tab bar based app for iPhone
I've tried this solution but it doesn't work (Xcode don't allow me to use the "hide" option)
Please, any help on how I can do it in Xcode 4 will be great!
Thank you all
I like to suppose, that you subclass your TabBarController.
Via Protocol/Delegate you're able to work with data from your loggingViewController (maybe, a button get's clicked to hide the TabBarItem).
Implement that protocol to your TabBarController and so you're able to receive those protocol-methods to add/hide/delete the Items easily.
Try it out! Or further questions?
