to change the color of UITextfield placeholder text there are three approaches

1. Override the
drawPlaceholderInRect:(CGRect)rect
- (void) drawPlaceholderInRect:(CGRect)rect {
[[UIColor <your color>] setFill];
[[self placeholder] drawInRect:rect withFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:10]];
}
2.Access the private iVar(risky apple might not approve)
[self.password setValue:[UIColor colorWithRed:(160/255) green:(97/255) blue:(5/255) alpha:1]forKeyPath:@"_placeholderLabel.textColor"];
3.Its not a way but a trick put a ui label in the appropriate place and hide it in
- (void)textFieldDidBeginEditing:(UITextField *)textField{
switch (textField.tag) {
case 0:
lblUserName.hidden=YES;
break;
case 1:
lblPassword.hidden=YES;
break;
default:
break;
}
}
