Try below code with valid input string that will help you.

    NSString *dateStr = @"9/8/2011 11:10:9";
    NSDateFormatter *dtF = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
    [dtF setDateFormat:@"d/M/yyyy hh:mm:s"];
    NSDate *d = [dtF dateFromString:dateStr];
    NSDateFormatter *dateFormat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
    [dateFormat setDateFormat:@"yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:s"];
    NSString *st = [dateFormat stringFromDate:d];   
    NSLog(@"%@",st);
    [dtF release];
    [dateFormat release];
