Can anyone suggest something that explains simply what actions and outlets are, when to use each? I've looked at a number of videos, but they don't seem to explain these basic concepts. TIA,

An outlet is a property you use to refer to some object in a .xib. So you might declare a property myButton and connect it to a button in Xcode; you can then use myButton to refer to to the button.

An action is the message a control sends to a target, such as you script object. So for example when you click on a button, it sends an action to its target, triggering its action handler.
