View window not showing in Interface Builder - solution!

I was having trouble with the very first exercise "Hello World" where we had to simply make the iPhone show Hello World on the screen.  I couldn't really explain my problem since I am new to Xcode and Interface Builder but I clicked, double clicked and I STILL couldn't see the View window in Interface Builder. 

Luckily I can say "I was"... meaning I've fixed the problem!  It is strange that I seemed to be the only one in class with this problem...  even re-installing four times hadn't fixed the issue...

So anyway... here's what I did to fix it:
In IB: Window > Document Info. 
Deployment Target was set to "Default - iPhone OS 3.2" and Development Target" was set to "Interface Builder 3.1" (which was not the default).  So I changed it so both were set at Default.  I saved and closed IB and when I opened it again with the xib file the View window just popped up!!!

It's a beautiful thing!

External monitor for the hackintosh...

Hello classmates... has anyone plugged in an external monitor to their netbook successfully...?  I get an array of beautiful colours once I plug it in (on both screens) and cannot view settings or anything...  It's rather hard using the small screen for an extended period of time.  But it's sooooo cute!!!

From iPhone to iMat

Apple-iMat

I like this one.- the mind boggles with the possibility of apps that could be built!  iMat: Twister?  It would need to be heavy duty for hopscotch...

Hello World!

As I was pondering over the title of my first blog I decided that Hello World was appropriate considering this is my FIRST real blog...
You see... it was my intention to remain as anonymous as I could in this nosey world.  I only joined facebook about August last year because I HAD to.  It is a great time waster - stalking has never been easier!  I mean, I don't intentionally stalk people (well...) but I find myself looking at their pics and somehow I'm in someone elses profile... and before I know it it is midnight and my assignment still hasn't completed itself!  Have I even moved?  Did I blink?  it's lucky that breathing comes so naturally... and now I'm going to be blogging!  Oh... don't get me wrong... I quite like facebook now... and I'm proud of myself from staying away from those games! 
I digress...
So anyway... Hello World isn't about the exercise that we're supposed to do on the iPhone... I just wanted to say hello to you all.
See you in class tonight.
