For IOS 6 you should use NSTextAlignmentCenter instead of UITextAlignmentCenter:

button.titleLabel.textAlignment = NSTextAlignmentCenter;

Source

And if you want backward compatibiliy to IOS 5 also you can do this,

#ifdef __IPHONE_6_0
# define ALIGN_CENTER NSTextAlignmentCenter
#else
# define ALIGN_CENTER UITextAlignmentCenter
#endif

You should use NSTextAlignmentCenter instead according to Apple's documentation.

You should also use NSTextAlignmentLeft and NSTextAlignmentRight instead of UITextAlignmentLeft and UITextAlignmentRight, respectively.

You can do 

newLabel.textAlignment = NSTextAlignmentCenter;

instead of 

newLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;

hope it helps.

#ifdef __IPHONE_6_0
# define ALIGN_CENTER NSTextAlignmentCenter
#else
# define ALIGN_CENTER UITextAlignmentCenter
#endif

UILabel* label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 50, 30)];
label.text = @"There is no spoon";
label.textAlignment = ALIGN_CENTER;
[self addSubview:label];
