UISearchBar placeholder crash in iOS 8

I have a UISearchBar programatically and works but if I try to set a placeholder and user tap to search something my app crash. This is my code:

Property

@property (strong, nonatomic) UISearchBar *mySearchBar;

Implementation

self.mySearchBar = [[UISearchBar alloc] init];
self.mySearchBar.delegate               = self;
self.mySearchBar.autoresizingMask       = UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth;
self.mySearchBar.autocorrectionType     = UITextAutocorrectionTypeNo;
self.mySearchBar.translucent            = NO;
self.mySearchBar.returnKeyType          = UIReturnKeySearch;
self.mySearchBar.autocorrectionType    = UITextAutocorrectionTypeNo;
self.mySearchBar.inputAccessoryView     = toolBarKeyboard;
self.mySearchBar.placeholder            = @"Artist, Team or City";

This line makes crash when user tap in uisearchbar to find some data

 self.mySearchBar.placeholder            = @"Artist, Team or City";

Someone else with this error?

I know this is an old question, but if someone else is facing this issue, this can solve the problem:

UITextField* tfSearchBar = [self.mySearchBar valueForKey:@"_searchField"];
tfSearchBar.attributedPlaceholder = [[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithString:@"Artist, Team or City"];

Hope it helps
