I'd like to add that while these free resources are great, I found Aaron Hillegas' book made ObjC easier to understand as a beginner: https://www.amazon.com/Objective-C-Programming-Ranch-Guide-Guides-ebook/dp/B00GSRITM0

C How to Program by Deitel is an extremely awesome book and you can knock out two birds with one stone by learning how to program in C. After that I would suggest Programming in Objective-C by Stephen Kochan from there I would then go into the Nerd Ranch Books and even take the Stanford iOS Courses which are free through iTunes University. You need to build a solid foundation of a programming mentality. It will take a little time but, then again, rome wasn't builit in a day. Good luck!

The Stanford course is a great way to learn if you're into lectures.

If you prefer workshops and have the time and money to invest, you should go to the Big Nerd Ranch Beginning iOS Bootcamp. (Here's my extended writeup about it - in summary, it's a great way to learn since you get live instruction.)

Or if you like books, you can try Objective-C Programming, and follow that up with iOS Programming: The Big Nerd Ranch Guide.

Decide which learning style you prefer, then jump in. :)

Im taking a course and we are using this book: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/032188728X

Really easy to follow, and has exercises and an active forum where all beginners and experts come together and help one another.

Erica Saduin's The Core iOS Developer's Cookbook is a great resource as well.

AFAIK it hasn't been updated since last year but she's pretty much my go to source for Obj-C/Cocoa stuff.

She's been a Smalltalk/Obj-C hacker for over 20 years.

I was in your position about ten years ago. The book that made it all click for me was Programming in Objective-C. In it Steven Kochan walks the read through the core principles of object orientated programming. As you said you are a complete beginner this seems like an ideal place to start.

Once you have the fundamental understood I would then recommend trying to build some simple apps. Follow these video tutorials, Apple Programming (YouTube).

While this doesn't specifically cover designing complex applications, I still found it a great resource for designing the inner workings of my apps: http://www.amazon.com/Cocoa-Design-Patterns-Erik-Buck/dp/0321535022/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1382636637&sr=8-1&keywords=Cocoa+Design+Patterns

I've been learning ObjC on own for a bit now. I took a two-pron approach. I am reading this book which covers ObjC basics and I am watching the Fall 2012 Stanford iOS courses on iTunes U. It's really got me going thus far. It also breaks the monotony of just reading a book, it feels like you are really in the class room.

Not sure if it's a bug on Amazon UK, but it allows me to see the vast majority of the book without even buying it.

Mac or iOS I googled 'developer apple core midi'. Otherwise, I would get this book.
