    [picker release];
}

but i dont know why doesnt save anything !

Answer 1

Call [self savePhoto] in -imagePickerController:didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo: after retrieving the image.

Answer 2

I suspect your image is released before you save it:

img.image = [info objectForKey:UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage];

The line above returns an autoreleased object. I suggest you retain the image as shown below and then release it when you have saved the image.

img.image = [[info objectForKey:UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage] retain];
