Hello, another VO user! First, I'd suggest reading the guide to Xcode I wrote, intended for VO users:
http://www.applevis.com/guides/programming-ios-programming-os-x-voiceover/voiceover-users-guide-xcode

As to tabs, I'd strongly suggest putting all your scenes in the storyboard first--the ones you'll want as tabs, that is. Don't add navigation controllers, detail views, or anything else yet. Select them all, embed in tab bar as the previous poster suggested, then you should be okay. I say this because I haven't yet managed to get a scene to show up as a tab after the fact, though 7.1 might have fixed that. My Xcode machine is down for a while, so I can't test or develop until that's fixed.

I hope that helps, at least a little. If you have Xcode questions, by all means, post them here. If something VO-specific isn't working, let us know and I can try to help. I'd also suggest email@hidden, a low-traffic list meant for Apple developers who rely on VoiceOver.

This should wrap the currently selected scene in a Tab Bar Controller where the scene itself is the first tab.

I also need to know how to delete items that I don’t need or use from my main story board please.  I am a voiceover user.
