Issues with pushing DetailViewController and UITableView

update

DetailViewController *wordDetail = [[DetailViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"DetailViewController" bundle:nil];
wordDetail.wordWordString = [[NSString alloc] initWithString:[[myArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:@"word"]];
wordDetail.wordDefinitionString = [[NSString alloc] initWithString:[[myArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:@"definition"]];
wordDetail.title = [[myArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:@"name"];

[self performSegueWithIdentifier:@"showDetail" sender:self];

here's my new prepare for segue (did you mean i dont need that anymore if i use the above method, or at all? Im actually now sure if all my identifiers are lining up... what do you think?

-(void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender
if ([[showDetail] isEqualToString:@"showDetail"]) {
NSIndexPath *indexPath = [self.tableView indexPathForSelectedRow];
NSDate *object = _objects[indexPath.row];
[[segue destinationViewController] setDetailItem:object];

Figure it might help to see my DetailViewController.m too...

-(void)setDetailItem:(id)newDetailItem
{
if (_detailItem != newDetailItem) {
    _detailItem = newDetailItem;

    // Update the view.
    [self configureView];
}

if (self.masterPopoverController != nil) {
    [self.masterPopoverController dismissPopoverAnimated:YES];
}        
}

-(void)configureView
{
//Update the user interface for the detail item.

if (self.detailItem) {
    self.detailDescriptionLabel.text = [self.detailItem description];
}
}


- (void)viewDidLoad
{
    wordWordLabel.text = wordWordString;
    wordDefinitionLabel.text = wordDefinitionString;

    [super viewDidLoad];
    // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
    [self configureView];
}

Your first section of code is fine. However it is creating a DetailViewController then pushing it along. This means there never is a Segue so your second code doesn't matter at all. You need to decide which you'd like to use.

[self.navigationController pushViewController:wordDetail animated:YES];

This line pushes a viewController on the stack. OR

[self performSegueWithIdentifier:@"showDetail sender:self];

will use the segue in Storyboards named showDetail. You can't have both, you'll need to choose.
