Cursor not displaying in UISearchBar for our app

Solution 1:

Our problem was that the tint color was set to white, so I didn't see it.

Solution 2:

Set

searchBar.tintColor = [UIColor blueColor];

Solution 3:

In the searchbox property window

open View Section>Set Tint color - default.

Hope this will help.

Solution 4:

This is how it can be done in Swift :

override func viewWillAppear(animated: Bool) {
    self.searchBar.tintColor = UIColor.whiteColor()

    let view: UIView = self.searchBar.subviews[0] as! UIView
    let subViewsArray = view.subviews

    for (subView: UIView) in subViewsArray as! [UIView] {
        println(subView)
        if subView.isKindOfClass(UITextField){
            subView.tintColor = UIColor.blueColor()
        }
    }

}
