Answer 1

You probably need to set myImageView.userInteractionEnabled = YES;.

Answer 2

If you want to detect a touch on the UITableViewCell you don't really need to detect touch events. In your UITableViewController subclass, you need to implement the following delegate method:

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableViewdidSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath

Then you modify the image of the table cell for the selected index path.
