Chances are that you are either not properly retaining the object you assign as the delegate of your UITextField (e.g. you don't assign it to an outlet property declared retain in IB), or you are calling release or autorelease on an object that you do not own or that you saved into an ivar.

The object eventually gets disposed of, and later a different object happens to be created at the same memory location. But that object, of course, doesn't implement the UITextFieldDelegate protocol, so when the text field tries to send the delegate messages to it it gives you that error instead. Were an object not to be created at that same memory location, you'd get a crash with EXC_BAD_ACCESS instead.

In Interface Builder (or possibly in code, but more likely IB) you have the "Editing Did Begin" Sent Event linked to a method that doesn't exist in your code; perhaps it was renamed, or maybe you neglected to delete that link after deleting the action.

When editing begins in your textField the app tries to call the method indicated in IB and fails; "unrecognized selector" is saying that it doesn't recognize a method by that name.

Either just delete the link or delete it and replace it with an appropriate link.
