Hi David,
Sorry to hear you’re having trouble with the walkthrough. I’m not sure where to direct you more specifically without details about what you’re missing. The video tutorials start with http://wordpress.org/plugins/styles-twentytwelve/ as a base.
At a minimum, you could try copying that plugin’s customize.json file into your theme directory and editing it there. Styles will detect settings in a theme’s customize.json before any plugins, and that should simplify the directory structure for you a bit.

Hi Paul, i am having trouble myself, i am looking at the video, are you sure that nothing had changed in the plugin since it was recorded?
i see a
styles-twentyfourteen.php file in the styles-twentyfourteen folder, do we need to rename that as well?
@neuro
you just need to install the styles plugin and then the styles plugin for twentyfourteen
so you have two plugins in the wp-content/plugins folder
the first you leave as it is and the second you rename it to match your custom’s theme name
like styles-custom from styles-twentyfourteen
then you change also the styles-twentyfourteen.php file add there the name of your custom template.
thats it, check that you have both of those plugins enabled from the back end.
