Cannot get UISearchBar Scope Bar to appear in Toolbar (or anywhere) on iPad

Question

This is really causing me fits. I see a lot of info on putting a UISearchBar in the top row of a UITableView -- but I am putting the UISearchBar into the Toolbar at the top of my screen (on the iPad). I cannot find ANYTHING regarding how to handle UISearchBar and UISearchDisplayController using a UIPopoverController on the iPad. Any more info about the UISearchDisplayController using a UIPopoverController would be greatly appreciated. Please help with this as I am at my wit's end.

Using IB, I put a toolbar on the IUView on the iPad. I added the following: Search Bar (not Search Bar and Search Display) to the toolbar. I set the options to be as follows: Show Cancel Button, Show Scope Bar, Scope Button Titles are: "Title1" and "Title2" (with Title2's radio button selected). Opaque, Clear Context and Auto Resize are checked. I hooked up the delegate of Search Bar to the "File's Owner" and linked it to IBOutlet theSearchBar.

In my viewWillAppear I have the following:

    //Just in case:
    [theSearchBar setScopeButtonTitles:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"Near Me",@"Everywhere",nil]];
    //Just in case (again):
    [theSearchBar setShowsScopeBar:YES];
    //doesn't seem to do anything:
    //[theSearchBar sizeToFit]; 

    searchDisplayController = [[UISearchDisplayController alloc] initWithSearchBar:theSearchBar contentsController:self];
    [self setSearchDisplayController:searchDisplayController];
    [searchDisplayController setDelegate:self];
    [searchDisplayController setSearchResultsDataSource:self];
    //again--does not seem to do anything..but people have suggested it:
    [theSearchBar sizeToFit]; 

Okay, so far, I thought, so good. So, I made the File's Owner .m file to be a delegate for: UISearchBarDelegate, UISearchDisplayDelegate.

My issue: I have yet to implement the delegates necessary to do the search but still... shouldn't I be seeing the scopeBar next to the search field when I click into the search field? Just so you know I DO see the log of the characters I type, so the delegate is working.

Here is a routine I used to check to see if IB really put the Scope Bar (UISegementedControl) in the searchbar:

for (UIView *v in theSearchBar.subviews) 
{
    if ([v isMemberOfClass:[UISegmentedControl class]]) 
    {             
        // You've got the segmented control!                 
        UISegmentedControl *scope = (UISegmentedControl *)v;
        // Do your thing here...
        NSLog(@"Found Scope: '%@'\n",scope);
        NSLog(@"Scope Segments: '%d'\n",[v numberOfSegments]);
    }
} 

This shows:

[30013:207] Found Scope: '<UISegmentedControl: 0x68a06b0; frame = (0 0; 200 44); opaque = NO; layer = <CALayer: 0x68a0600>>'
[30013:207] Scope Segments: '2'

So, I know the 2 segments are there. I also know they are not showing up... What am i doing wrong?

Why doesn't the Scope Bar appear? A results UIPopoverController appears with the title "Results" and "No results found" (of course) when i type the first character in my search...but no scope bar. (not that i expect anything other than "No Results Found".

I am wondering where the scope bar is supposed to appear...in the titleView of the UIPopover? In the toolbar to the right of the search area? Where?

I'm having the exact same problem. Ever figure this out?
