Answer 1

+ (NSIndexPath *)indexPathForItem:(NSInteger)item inSection:(NSInteger)section; is a method only works in UICollectionView in iOS 6. You can't use it in UITableView in iOS 5.

you are probably looking for indexPathForRow:inSection:

Answer 2

Use

[NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:indexRow inSection:indexSection];

instead of

[NSIndexPath indexPathForItem:indexRow inSection:indexSection];

Answer 3

It must be a method that is added in iOS6, because it doesn't exist in the iOS5 documentation located here :

https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/Classes/NSIndexPath_Class/Reference/Reference.html

Edit: This method is only for a collection view, not a UITableView. Collection views are not supported in iOS 5
