  Chapter 8

  Page 269, in the middle of the page: [sectionsToRemove release]; is pre-ARC. Solution: just remove this line.

  Chapter 8

  Page 266, first half of the page:

  cell = [[[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero reuseIdentifier:sectionsTableIdentifier] autorelease];

  is pre-ARC and the initWithFrame:reuseIdentifier: method is deprecated since iOS 3.0.

  My solution:

  cell = [[UITableViewCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleDefault reuseIdentifier:sectionsTableIdentifier];

  Chapter 8

  This is not an errata, it's just a suggestion:

  Pages 266 and 270, implementation of the searchBarSearchButtonClicked:

  I would add the following line to that method:

  [self.search resignFirstResponder];

  in order to make the keyboard disappear after the user taps the “Search” button.

  Chapter 9

  Page 299, first line of code after the if block:

  childController.title = @"Disclosure Button Pressed";

  This line should be deleted, since the correct title for the view controller is set later, 5 lines after this one, to be the same value as the selectedMovie.

  The Disclosure Buttons table view doesn't display any data

  About subclassing a subclass of UITableViewController: a post on my blog about a subtle error that the book drives you to make. This is why the Disclosure Buttons table view won't display any data, if you follow exactly the instructions given in the book.
