I had the same problem here with a UIAlertView, in my case, I had another class implementing the alert, and, from another one I was calling a static method. Like the following:

ClassA

...

doSomething {
 ... some stuff ...

 [MyAlertView showAlert];

 ... some other stuff...

}

What I suspect is that, as the alertview is shown asynchronously when I clicked the button the object was already released.

To verify that, I changed the code to instantiate the alert and not release it. And everythong worked.

My final solution was to declare a variable in the parent view, and deallocate it with the other variables when the view is deallocated.
