nsdate

This is probably a simple solution but does anyone know how to delay the NSDate change past midnight? Any insight would be really helpful, thanks! Edit: I am currently getting the date this way and displaying a locations data based on that day. But, much like the NSDate is logically supposed to work, it switches to the next day at midnight. I want the date to change at 3am instead of at 12am. NSDateFormatter *f = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init]; [f setDateFormat:@"EEEE"]; today = [f stringFromDate:[NSDate date]]; Should I just use the time instead of using NSDate? I am a bit of a noob to iOS so

I am storing an NSDate in a plist as a string, and at launch I am trying to convert the string from the plist back to an NSDate to compare it later. This is how I am storing the value in my plist: [InfoDic setValue:[NSDate date] forKey:@"LastDate"]; In the log (When I convert the [NSDate date] to a proper string) it says this: 2013-04-13 22:47:57 +0000 This is how I am trying to convert the plist value back to an NSDate : NSString *Checkdate= [InfoDic objectForKey:@"LastDate"]; NSDateFormatter *DateFormat=[[NSDateFormatter alloc]init]; [DateFormat setDateFormat:@"yyyy'-'MM'-'dd'T'HH':'mm':'ss

After updating Xcode to version 4.2 I received the following warning in my current project: warning: 'NSDate' may not respond to 'initWithString:' What must I do? :) This method is in the documentation only noted at the Mac OSX page, not the iOS. Why Apple has different versions is unclear to me, but they luckily respond the same. Because the class reference for iOS says there is no such method for iOS NSDate, you get the warning. Your code, however, will respond perfectly fine. To silence the warning, you should indeed use NSDateFormatter. Regards, Jacco You should use NSDateFormatter to get

A few threads here discuss the new iOS 6 Xcode error that pops up in the console when sending nil dates to Calendar methods: -[__NSCFCalendar components:fromDate:toDate:options:]: fromDate cannot be nil I mean really, what do you think that operation is supposed to mean with a nil fromDate? An exception has been avoided for now. A few of these errors are going to be reported with this complaint, then further violations will simply silently do whatever random thing results from the nil. The error made me chuckle a bit, but got me to thinking.... The code I've written that results in this error
