Why is my UIButton.tintColor not working?

Question

My build target is set for IOS5 which is where I understand UIButton.tintColor was introduced...

I have this in my viewDidLoad for the View Controller

Answer 1

According to the documentation:

This property is not valid for all button types.

You need to switch your buttonType to another one of these. (Unfortunately, the documentation does not specify which specific button types support this property.)
