Can't select object to form circular array

Anonymous
Not applicable

I am new to fusion and trying to migrate from Sketchup. I am working through some tutorials and having some difficulty. In this example I am trying to create a circular array of the arc between the pins. I believe I am following step by step but when activating the array function I am unable to select the arc ( I can select the center point but not the arc), I click on it and nothing happens, I have started over several times but always with the same problem. I have not been able to find what I must be doing wrong.

Here is the tutorial:

This is where I am having an issue:

The tutorial is using a much older version of Fusion and it is different now. The sketch pattern has to stay in the sketch so go back and edit sketch 4 and select circular pattern there.

Thanks, that worked. This is one of many issues I have had trying to follow along with tutorials/videos. I will get to a point or operation  when the software I am using does not function as described, sometimes I can work it out,  I have suspected the problem is different versions, but in some cases I am simply dead ended, like this one. 

Thanks again for taking the time to help and if you know of an up to date tutorial I would be grateful. As a woodworker my needs are fairly simple.

There is more than issue with different versions - Steps 8 and 9 are poorly written.
