Having an issue using a table view downloading data from a JSON file. The JSON has 4 entries and I want my code to ignore the first entry and just put the ones after the first one into the table view. With my code below it is getting the full 4 entries from the JSON and placing them all into the table view. I have tried everything but cannot seem to work my head around this.
Thanks,

If I understand your question correctly you just wanted to skip the first element/entry from the array. why not just use Tutortrackinbud
sample:
-(void)downloadreviews{
//<fetch data>...
NSError *error = nil;
TutordizDict = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:jsonData options:0 error:&error];
NSMutableArray *temp = [[TutordizDict objectForKey:@"tutific"]mutableCopy];
if([temp count] > 0){ // if there is an entry should we remove it, if we should just perform this; otherwise if we only remove if there are more than 1 change condition to 1
[temp removeObjectAtIndex:0];
}
Tutortrackinbud = [temp copy];
NSUInteger *elements = [Tutortrackinbud count];
NSLog(@"Number of Shows : %d", elements);
if (elements == 0)
{
//[udropofftrack removeAllObjects];
Tutortrackinbud=nil;
[_tableViewObject reloadData];
// self.noorder.hidden=FALSE;
}
else{
NSString *success = [Tutortrackinbud[0] valueForKey:@"success"];
if ([success isEqual: @"0"])
{
UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Connection Error" message:@"Your application failed to connect to uDropOff servers. Please update your application in the App Store." delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil];
[alert show];
return;
}
else
{
{
for (int i = 1 ; i < [Tutortrackinbud count]; i++){
{
TutordaObj = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
}
}
}
}
}
}
[_tableViewObject reloadData];
}`
