I'm totally new to IOS development and I am trying to create a custom listView cell on Xcode 3.2.
When I create a new file as described here I can open the .xib file and IB comes up, but there is no place to put the objects, no drawing area, how can I get it to show up?

    why are you using such an old xcode? – vikingosegundo Dec 07 '13 at 15:25

    Xcode 5.0.2 is the latest version of Xcode. You should upgrade as it has changed a lot since 3. You will be learning old skills that will not help you at all. – Jasarien Dec 07 '13 at 15:35

    This question appears to be off-topic because it is about an ancient version of XCode that no one should be developing on. A question/answer on the topic of such an old version of XCode is unlikely to be useful to anyone in the future. – nhgrif Dec 07 '13 at 15:38
  • Sorry but this question is not off-topic since i'm using 3.2 because my macbook cannot be upgraded to mavericks so i can't use 5.0 – MineConsulting SRL Dec 07 '13 at 19:32

    Xcode 4 requirements are Intel-based Mac running Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard. Can you at least switch to 4??? You're doing yourself a disservice by learning with 3. – Chris Wagner Dec 07 '13 at 19:34

    Yes i know but Xcode 4 is not available for download if you aren't registered as developer – MineConsulting SRL Dec 07 '13 at 19:50

This is a pretty common thing that happens to me a lot - All you have to do is go to the left-most side right next to the IB, as shown here:

enter image description here

Right below your File's owner, where you see either the litle white box (as shown at the bottom of the picture) or a yellow circle with that little white box inside of it, just click it, and you should see the view inside of your .xib file - Happy programming!
