`[[self tableView] reloadData]` changes the NSMutableArray count

I have an app that uses a UITablewView and in that TableView there is an NSMutableArray that holds the data to be displayed in the TabelView. The problem is in my TableView Controller I use:

[[self tableView] reloadData]

To reload the TableView data and it works fine for a couple of times but doesn't work on the 3rd time and instead it changes the array count in a weird way.

Now I read similar question here and most likely I have 2 instances of the TableView or the TableViewController but I can't figure out how to troubleshoot this? How to detect if there are 2 instances of the object and fix that?

EDIT: Here is a pic how my navigation goes enter image description here

So the 1st round of going from ScrollView to TableView things show up correctly. Then I go to UIView and back to TableView and it's working fine. So I go back all the way to ScrollView and back again to TableView and it's good.

But when I go to the UIView for this time then back to TableView this problem happens. TableView doesn't display the changes. So I put a breakpoint just before [[self tableView] reloadData] and found out that the array _displayedObjetcs gets its count changed. -1 actually. see the following screen shots b4 and after I step over the reloadData just before reloadData and then

just after reloadData

My immediate thought is that your array is not being retained properly, by your application. Your "weird" count is probably a number like 234791..., which is highly indicative of an array that has been released incorrectly. Therefore, I would check how your are retaining and releasing this array.

However, without more posted code, it is impossible to help you further.
