iOS How to change Rootview in TableView Controller

Probably a really newbie question but I can't seem to get it to work.
I want to change the startpage when the app opens. Currently it opens at Table View, but I would like to have it started at "Edit info View Controller".

I tried several things, but in all variations I got errors.
Screenshot of current setup attached.
Any help really appreciated.

I would delete the navigation controller and then embed the "Edit View Controller" in a new navigation controller. Then create a new segue to the table view

Hello AxoNeuron, thx for answering, as per your suggestion I've deleted the navigation controller, and embedded the "Edit info View Controller in a new navigation controller using "Editor" menu, "embed in Navigation Controller". I then created a modal segue from View controller to edit view controller and vice versa. But both didn't work. One crashed and the other one still starts at the View controller.

Also change relationship "Root view controller to Detail didn't work.

On the far left on the table view, that little arrow indicates which view controller the application starts on. Try moving that to the other controller.

Ok, I've managed to make a small step forward; the arrow points to the VC that should be activated on startup. Unfortunately I now have the error: unsupported configuration scene is unreachable due to lack of entry points and does not have an identifier for runtime access via -instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier.

Try using a modal segue perhaps from the table view controller to the secondary view controller? Is anything in your "Edit Info" view controller dependent on information coming from the table view controller?

As it stands, does the actual segue itself work?

A modal segue didn't work for changing the startup page.
Everything else works as it should.

The initial goal was to make a startpage that contains a text input field, and when clicking save the name (text input) was stored in the SQLite database, ready to be exported as a text file when finished adding data. Basically I only need 1 page. I couldn't make this work, so a lot of research brought me to the following alternative. Maybe I started completely wrong and making this too complicated.

I am not sure if I understood correctly but:

1. - Delete all your segues, including the one from the UINavigationController to your UITableViewController

If I delete all segues, I also delete the Navigation item of the Edit View controller (that contains Title and Save).
I've uploaded the files if you want to look at the code http://www.saeys.org/SQLite.zip

Follow the rest of the instructions

The title appeared again

Unfortunately I have two errors now:
Unsupported configuration: Segues initiated directly from view controllers must have an identifier for use with -[UIViewController performSegueWithIdentifier:sender]

I gave the controllers both a StoryBoardID but that didn't seem to help.
Any suggestions?

JohnsonK said:

The segue from your EditViewController to your UITableViewController needs an identifier. Select it and give it one.

Also note that you are going to have to update your code with the new identifier and perhaps update your app's logic as well since you have changed the way it works.

Forget the storyboard id, there is no need for it

The errors are gone, but the application crashes: libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type NSException.

We need more than simply "it crashes"

Crashes when doing what? Also please copy and paste the entire log

Sorry, the iOS simulator crashes when going to "Product" and select "Run".
Simulator start op normally, as soon as te app loads it crashes immediately (only black screen is visible after launch of the app)

Oh, as I said earlier, you have to change your app's logic.

Not sure how to do this; information that I found related to xcode 4. Is it remove Bundle Loader and Test Host or does it refer to Choose File > New > New Target and selecting Cocoa Touch Unit testing bundle from the menu?
