I worked chapter 2 "try me" for "Hello". The file I get from the book says, "cannot create directory", and fails. The files I created directly from Xcode, or from Apple's Developer "Examples" work.
I tried some of the later chapter examples, and get the same problem as in "Hello". What is wrong with my "Beginning Xcode " downloads from this site?

Ron,
You need to copy any projects you want to work with to your local hard disk. Once you copy them to your hard disk, they should work just fine.
The projects that accompany the book are distributed on a read-only disk image. Xcode places both intermediate files and the project's final products in the 'build' folder which it creates inside each project folder -- at least by default, chapter 15 goes into the details of how to change this. As long as the project is on a read-only volume, Xcode can't create the build folder or write any files there. This also affects indexing, predictive compilation, and other features for the same reason.

I Copied Chap 4 out of file image and it appears to now work. If I knew what the result for each exercise was I could be certain.
