I dunno, but I suspect that this isn’t good enough. You’re merely guessing that “on the next iteration of the run loop” is *after* the text field finished becoming first responder, but it may take time to get the text field into a state where its selection can be set.

I’d suggest you try selecting the text in a delegate method (textDidBeginEditing or controlTextDidBeginEditing) instead.
