Scrolling Tab Bar with Navigation Tab in each view - iphone-sdk-3.0

Project need to show 7 tab bars in the application. So as per TabBar controller I am able to show the 4 tabs at a time along with "More" button which after clicking shows remaining tabs.
Also I need to show Navigation Tab for each View.
I am able to achieve this till now. But we need to make the Tab Bar in scrolling manner so that user can scroll the remaining tabs and after clicking particular tab that view is loaded along with Navigation Controller.
So can any body tell me how to achieve Scrolling TabBar along with Navigation bar in each view.
Any sample code will be more great full......
Thanks in advance.

You already mentioned the "more"-button... This should be the way to manage too many tabs, in order not to break the common iPhone l&f and keep users on track.

Is there a special name for a toolbar like thing at the bottom of Instagram?

The attached Instagram snapshot has a collection of buttons like Home, Search, Add etc. at the very bottom. What is this component called? Is it called tab navigator? Any special name for it?
iOS calls this a Tab Bar, which appears at the bottom of an app screen and is used for navigation between an app's various functions.
It's not the same as a Toolbar, which appears at the bottom of an app screen and contains actions relevant to the current view.

Navigation bar doesn't show back button

I have a navigation controller with a table full of buttons that cause various settings pages to push in. I needed to add a new one, so I copied one of my existing ones, changed the VC, and off I go.
But there's no nav bar on the screen. I can see the navigation object in the storyboard and the editor simulates it's display. I compared it to the other pages that are displaying the bar, and they look the same.
I tried changing some settings, like "Hide Bottom Bar On Push" and that had an effect, but my attempts to get the bar to show up fail.
I looked at other questions that suggested it had something to do with naming, but I've tried various name fields - on the Navigation Item, the VC's Title, etc. - with no effect.
I am not sure, but the problem may be that in case the segue to the new View Controller Scene is set to modal, it would not have a Nav Bar, To be able to see one, you need to embed that in another Navigation Controller.

Can we put tab bar on top>?

Say I like tab bar style button and I want to put it somewhere on the screen.
Can I do that?
This the the documentation for tabbar
Provides a mechanism for displaying a tab bar at the bottom of the screen and supports the display and selection of tab bar items (instances of UITabBarItem). You can use UITabBarDelegate to specify custom views for tab bar items.
Yes, you can put it at the top, but it's probably against the HIG. However, I don't understand the intent of your question -- you obviously tried putting it at the top, so why ask a question to which you already know the answer?
No. By definition, tab bars go on the bottom of the screen -- the top is reserved for navigation bars.

Tab Bar application with a Navigation Controller but different tab bar on detail page

I've seen lots of tutorials on how to build a simple app with 2 tabs and a navigation controller - especially when there is a table view where you click a row to see details (and have built this myself). But most apps I've seen have the detail view such that either the tab bar disappears or there is another type of nav bar at the bottom. Does anybody know how to extend the basic navigation controller and tab bar to get it to work to get it to work like this?
