I have about 25 buttons and I want to connect the "Touch Down" event to the same action for all buttons. I can do this manually for each button but is there a quick way to do this for all the buttons?

Are you asking about a way to do this in Interface Builder or in code?

in IB, if you have action, drag from the action to a button to link it up. Then just do it again with another button. The little circle by the action change to a + letting you know you can add more items to it.

Easy as pie.

In Interface Builder. Yes, but I was wondering if it was possible to do it all at once so I could connect 30 buttons to a single action with one drag versus doing it 30 times.

No shortcut I know of unless you want to set them up in code. Luckily you only have to do it once.
