You mean to File's Owner? Is the "Custom Class" of File's Owner set to the right class? Both right-drag and ctrl-drag still work for me to connect button actions in 6.1.1 (which is the latest on the MAS).

This is for adding a new outlet/action. I was under the impression you had an existing one that you just wanted to hook up?

The IBAction return type is a special keyword indicating that this instance method can be connected to your storyboard or xib file. Xcode also sets the action selector for the control to this method. As a result, the method gets invoked whenever the control receives an action message.

Clicking the button in the View initiates the IBAction, which indicates that I’m following the instruction correctly. I do the same steps when I try it with my MyView file, which fails.

I'm not sure what you're trying to do. Can you give us a better description? Your app delegate has an act: method but you're trying to connect to it by dragging to a MyView?
