Answer 1

I've solved this problem simple, just by adding rightBarButtonItem :)

self.navigationItem.titleView = self.searchBar;
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = [[[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:NSLocalizedString(@"Cancel", nil) style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain target:self action:@selector(didClickCancelButton:)] autorelease];

But sure you have to check if current iOS version is >= 7.0, otherwise you will get two "cancel" buttons..

BTW This method allows you to have "cancel" button which always enabled
