Answer 1

If you are using your UISearchBar with an UISearchDisplayController, you can simply set the cancel button to show, in the "searchDisplayControllerWillBeginSearch" delegate method, like so: (iOS 7 tested)

-(void)searchDisplayControllerWillBeginSearch:(UISearchDisplayController *)controller{
    controller.searchBar.showsCancelButton = YES;
}
