I'm following a tutorial online for creating a photo sharing app using Parse as a backend. I've run through the tutorial twice, creating the app from scratch both times, and still the same error occurs at the same spot. I've looked high and low for a solution and still no luck.
I'm using a PFQueryTableViewController, and my content is being loaded in multiple sections instead of rows. Each section displays PFUser details in the section header, and each section has only one row, which displays the image loaded by that user. At the end of each page (I have pagination enabled, loading 3 objects at a time) there is a "Load more" button to load the next 3 objects into the table view when clicked. However, when I click this button, my app crashes and presents this error:
Assertion failure in -[UITableView _endCellAnimationsWithContext:], /SourceCache/UIKit_Sim/UIKit-2935.137/UITableView.m:1114 2014-07-28 01:50:37.368 SampleCamApp[25686:60b] Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: 'attempt to delete row 3 from section 0 which only contains 1 rows before the update'
Here's my code:

When I run my app, all content gets loaded correctly, including images, text, etc... Its only when I click the button that the trouble starts. I'm pretty cozy with iOS development at this point, however, I'm fairly new to Parse, and this is the first time I've used a PFQueryTableViewController. Please let me know if I'm implementing something incorrectly, otherwise I'll just have to work around a regular UITableViewController to make this happen.
