Answer 1

This solution work for me - iOs7 and iOs8:

@interface ... : ...
@property (strong, nonatomic) IBOutlet UISearchBar *search; 
@end

and

- (void)searchBarTextDidBeginEditing:(UISearchBar *)searchBar {
[searchBar setShowsCancelButton:YES animated:YES];

NSArray *searchBarSubViews = [[self.search.subviews objectAtIndex:0] subviews];
UIButton *cancelButton;
for (UIView *subView in searchBarSubViews) {
    if ([subView isKindOfClass:NSClassFromString(@"UINavigationButton")]) {
        cancelButton = (UIButton*)subView;
        break;
    }
}
if (cancelButton) {

    [cancelButton setTitle:@"New cancel" forState:UIControlStateNormal];

}
 //insert this two lines below if you have a button appearance like this "Ne...cel" 

[searchBar setShowsCancelButton:NO animated:YES];
[searchBar setShowsCancelButton:YES animated:YES]; 
}
