### *Example Input Text:*

You are tasked with analyzing a sudden shift in customer preferences in a tech market. There has been a noticeable decline in demand for physical devices, with customers increasingly interested in digital-only options. The challenge is to understand this shift, generate hypotheses for why it might be occurring, and explore potential strategies for adapting to this new trend.

---

### *Processed Output with System 1 and System 2 Thinking:*

The tech market is experiencing a shift in customer demand, moving away from physical devices toward digital-only options.

[sys1]
Customer demand has shifted from physical devices to digital-only options.
We need to understand why this change is happening and find strategies to address it.
Key factors may include cost, convenience, and technological trends.
[end sys1]

[sys2]
**2.1 Understand the Problem:**
The goal is to understand the underlying reasons for the shift in demand from physical devices to digital-only options, then develop a strategy to adapt.

*Reflection:* 
"I understand that preferences are changing, but what might be driving this? Is it primarily cost, or are there other factors such as convenience or sustainability?"

*Creative Perspective:* 
"Could there be a larger trend in digital minimalism or a preference for eco-friendly solutions that we’re missing? What unseen motivations might explain this shift?"

**2.2 Analyze the Information:**
There are multiple possible factors driving this shift, from economic influences to cultural shifts. It’s essential to isolate each factor and understand its impact.

*Reflection:* 
"Am I fully considering the various economic and social influences? Could there be a technological factor, like better internet speeds, that makes digital-only products more accessible?"

*Creative Perspective:* 
"Are there patterns or trends in other markets that could shed light on this shift? Could this be part of a larger trend toward virtual experiences?"

**2.3 Generate Hypotheses:**
1. Customers prefer digital options due to lower costs. (Confidence: 0.8, Creative: 0.4)
2. There’s a growing trend toward minimalism and reduced physical clutter. (Confidence: 0.7, Creative: 0.7)
3. Digital products offer greater flexibility and ease of use. (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.6)
4. Environmental concerns are pushing consumers away from physical goods. (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.8)
5. Advances in tech make digital-only options more functional. (Confidence: 0.8, Creative: 0.5)
6. Pandemic-era remote work increased demand for digital solutions. (Confidence: 0.7, Creative: 0.6)
7. Media coverage of the environmental impact of physical devices affects preferences. (Confidence: 0.5, Creative: 0.7)
8. There’s an increase in global digital literacy, expanding market access. (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.6)
9. Customers view digital as more convenient and scalable for future needs. (Confidence: 0.7, Creative: 0.5)
10. Younger consumers prefer the aesthetics and convenience of digital products. (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.6)

*Reflection:* 
"Have I considered all possible influences? Are there any surprising factors that could explain this shift?"

*Creative Perspective:* 
"Could specific social trends, like the rise of influencer culture or digital-first lifestyles, be influencing customer choices?"

**2.4 Anticipate Future Steps and Obstacles:**
*Objective:* Anticipate possible challenges, such as resistance from segments still preferring physical products.

*Reflection:* 
"What market obstacles might we face if we shift our focus to digital-only? Are there sub-segments that still prioritize physical products?"

*Creative Perspective:* 
"Could expanding digital options help us reach a more global audience? Are there emerging trends that we could leverage in our strategy?"

[end sys2]

[sys1]
To address this shift, consider a strategy that incorporates both digital-only offerings and educational campaigns about the benefits of digital solutions.
Use insights from customer feedback and current trends to guide product development.
Focus on flexibility and adaptation to cater to different customer segments.
[end sys1]


Q:

Segue does not trigger in tab bar app

I'm using storyboard and XCode 4.3 to create an app that has a tab bar as root view. Even though my app has other segues that work just fine, one of them just does not trigger. It's supposed to trigger when the third item of the tab is selected. The only thing I can see is that the tab bar actually loads the new view, but no information is passed.
The connections on Storyboard are as follow : Root View controller (Tab bar) -> Navigation Controller -> CapitolDetailViewController (which has a push segue from another view controller) 
I've tried many changes in the connections, code, etc. But it just doesn't trigger this segue. I tried to change the code in my AppDelegate to add the new controllers that were missing. The code for my applicationDidFinishLaunching is the following: 
NSManagedObjectContext *context = [self managedObjectContext];

NSError *error;
if (![context save:&error]) {
    NSLog(@"Whoops, couldn't save: %@", [error localizedDescription]);
}

    tabBarController = (UITabBarController *)self.window.rootViewController;

    UINavigationController *view1 = [[tabBarController viewControllers]    objectAtIndex:0];
    UINavigationController *view2 = [[tabBarController viewControllers] objectAtIndex:1];
    UINavigationController *view3 = [[tabBarController viewControllers] objectAtIndex:2];

    SCDMasterViewController *view11 = [[view1 viewControllers] objectAtIndex:0];
    view11.managedObjectContext = self.managedObjectContext;    

    SerieDetailViewController *view22 = [[view2 viewControllers] objectAtIndex:0];

    CapitolDetailViewController *view33 = [[view3 viewControllers] objectAtIndex:0];

    return YES;

Where "SerieDetailViewController" is the one that should pass the information when the 3rd item is selected, and "CapitolDetailViewController" is the one that should receive it.
Code for my segue: (it doesn't even enter the segue, de NSLOG never shows up)
    - (void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender {

    NSLog(@"Entra segue");

    if ([segue.identifier isEqualToString:@"mostraCapitol"]) {

        NSString *nom = @"";

        nom= serieName;

        CapitolDetailViewController *destViewController = segue.destinationViewController;

        destViewController.serieName2 = nom; 

    }
}

Anyone knows what is wrong? 
UPDATE: even though I received an answer that helped me to correct some compilation errors, the problem is still there. If I click the tab bar item, it loads an empty view. It never calls the segue. It looks like the tab bar items and the view controllers are not attached.

A:

Try checking the segue method that does not work. Make sure your identifier for the segue in the storyboard mach the one in your class. From the look of your code and all the comments it seems that your code is fine and should work. The only place that might give you an issue would be different identifiers for the segue in storyboard. I hope this resolves your issue my friend.
Edit:
well i don't know if this works for you but i have a different approach in setting up the core data in tab bar app. in .h file of the delegate almost everything is generic, in .m particularly applicationdidfinishwithoption i use index number in order to sort the views in view controller that i add to tab bar. i hope this helps, here is the code i use.
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions
{
[self setupFetchedResultsController];

if (![[self.fetchedResultsController fetchedObjects] count] > 0 ) {
NSLog(@"!!!!! ~~> There's nothing in the database so defaults will be inserted");
[self importCoreDataDefaultRoles];
}
else {
NSLog(@"There's stuff in the database so skipping the import of default data");    
}

// The Tab Bar
UITabBarController *tabBarController = (UITabBarController *)self.window.rootViewController;

// The Two Navigation Controllers attached to the Tab Bar (At Tab Bar Indexes 0 and 1)
 UINavigationController *view1 = [[tabBarController viewControllers] objectAtIndex:0];
UINavigationController *view2 = [[tabBarController viewControllers] objectAtIndex:1];

View1 *view1 = [[view1nav viewControllers] objectAtIndex:0];
personsTVC.managedObjectContext = self.managedObjectContext;    

View2 *view2 = [[view2nav viewControllers] objectAtIndex:0];
rolesTVC.managedObjectContext = self.managedObjectContext;

return YES;
}

by using index numbers i was able to achieve the same scenario without any error and for the start up view i used a child that i plugged in as initial modal view. hope this helps you. in my case core data was to be added to multiple tabs, i do not know if you have the same need.

now bare in mind that i use both classes for for data entities and declared the managed objects in both classes. one thing is for sure when using core data your initial view has to have the managed objects. if this does not help you then i sugest you can take a look at tim roadley's core data tutorial or paul hagurty's stanford core data class. if you need a whole project to look at let me know and ill try to get something together and place a link so you can download it, but i believe if you have created a proper model and are using the right methods in app delegate similar to what i did, it should work. hope this helps you my friend.
