BecomeFirstResponder() not working on UITextField

Question

I want to focus my UITextfield in my bottom toolbar, so on ViewWillAppear I wrote the following code:

textBarcode.BecomeFirstResponder ();

But the textBarcode doesn't become the focus. I also tried it with a little bit of a delay, but got the same result.

Does anybody have any ideas?

yes, but with the same result. There is also a tableview in my view, maybe that causes the problem?! — anguish, May 17 '13 at 13:19
Did you put the binding in from the xib/storyboard to your .h file? I forget this occasionally. — Janene Pappas, May 17 '13 at 15:13

    textBarcode.delegate = self;

    [textBarcode becomeFirstResponder];
}

Check that isUserInteraction field is set to true.

textField.isUserInteractionEnabled = true
textField.becomeFirstResponder()

You write this in viewDidAppear

[textBarcode becomeFirstResponder];
