I have a UITextfield that i\'d like to dismiss the keyboard for. I can\'t seem to make the keyboard go away no matter what code i use.

In your view controller YourViewController.h file, make sure you implement UITextFieldDelegate protocol :

@interface YourViewController : 

@end

Then, in YourViewController.m file, implement the following instance method:

- (void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
    [self.yourTextField1 resignFirstResponder];
    [self.yourTextField2 resignFirstResponder];
    ...
    [self.yourTextFieldn resignFirstResponder];
}
