After some searching I know how to set the UIPickerView and its Content. The only problem is that i can't connect the UIPickerViews datasource and delegate Outlet to the File`s Owner because since 4.2 i can't find the File's Owner. Because of that, the Content isn't displayed on the UIPickerView.
Can anyone help me?

Came here looking for an answer to this but managed to find it on my own. Obvious once you know what to look for.
Ctrl-click the UIPickerView component and drag from data source to the view controller icon in the bar below the view in storyboard (be sure that you set your custom controller for the view). Do the same for delegate and you're all set.

I have an existing .xib that needs to be displayed as the main page in a Xamarin.Mac application. If I set the "Main Interface" as this existing .xib, it does display but it's not done by the time my DidFinishLaunching override gets called. This is where I expect to do some initialization, but the outlets I specified are all null.
I am new to Xamarin and I'm trying to figure out if I need to override a different call that lets me know that the main page is done loading or if the issue lies elsewhere.
I did see that an NSWindowController has a WindowDidLoad override, but if I set the Main Interface in the info.plist, how does it know what the ViewController is for that view so that my override WindowDidLoad gets called?
I'm thinking I probably need to create the main window manually in DidFinishLaunching, but I can't find any documentation on how to create the main window through an .xib. There is documentation on how to get a storyboard from a nib, but I am not seeing anything on loading a .xib. If someone can find a good reference on how the main window gets initialize (with all the plumbing included) in a Xamarin.Mac application, that may be enough.
Thank you in advance for your time.
The chain of events is roughly:
Main invokes NSApplication.Main
Reads Info.plist to determine what xib/storyboard to load.
Storyboard is loaded and inflated. The view controller has a custom class that points to "ViewController"
Your ViewController is spun up, and WindowDidLoad get called.
DidFinishLaunching is not exactly what you are looking for.
May I suggest take a look at the documentation in question to get a better understand of the full process:

I'm trying to change my initial view in my storyboard, but, when I change it I get this strange view:
Anyone can tell me why?
Ps: In my project I don't have any tab controllers, so I don't know why there is a tab over there...
Is it possible you are doing a universal app and are looking at the wrong View?
What you have there is a navigation bar in a blank view and probably a message in your messages telling you that you have not got a root view controller.
In the past I have solved this by
a) Restarting XCode.
b) Making a new view, copying and pasting the essential View Controller from my old View and deleting the old View.
c) Checking in my summary that the view I think is being talked to actually is the one specified.
d) Looking at my storyboard and checking that the viewcontroller is specified in the object inspector as "Is initial View Controller" by checking the box.
I am new to MATE framework and I have been digging around some sample codes so that i can do the following:
On clicking a button (on a canvas)
Display a Panel.
The issue is that i am not trying to pass any value hence not sure of how/ what should be defined as sourcekey and targetkey. If this is the case, then how should one define the propertyinjector details.
most examples that are floating around contains details of reading data from a source and populating the same on a UI/ Display component.
Thanks

for this one you shouldn't use propertyInjection you should dispatch an event (you can make it custom), then you need to catch the event in the appropriate place and simply do whatever you want with it.
This is my first question here.
I hope I can contribute with answers too..
My need is to build an Extjs TriggerField implementation which open on trigger click a Panel with a custom loaded page inside...
example: When I click the trigger button I what to open a panel specifying an url as /Views/Test/Blabla.aspx and then storing the selection in the trigger field value.
I hope someone could help me
Thanks in advance
There is an example which pops up a Panel in your examples directory under examples/form/forum-search.html
It's based on a ComboBox (But it configures it to hide the trigger button)
BTW, probably a better idea to ask for help at http://extjs.com/forum/
I understand that we need to create MXML file to define a view. Suppose on user click of a button I want to show another view defined in another MXML file. How can I do this?
You could use a viewstack. each item in the viewstack would be a different MXML file so when the user clicks a button you change the selected index of the viewstack which makes the view change.
You could probably do with checking out the examples in http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/tourdeflex/ this will help explain so much more than a simple answer will.
From your question it sounds like you need to get the basics of flex first and the tour de flex app contains loads of examples with source code.
HTH.
