UIAlertController not allowing click - objective-c

Question

I am generating a UIAlertController for use in iOS8 to replace a UIActionSheet function.
The controller presents correctly, but I cannot click anywhere in the controller to get a response. I put in simple NSLog into the handler, and it is absolutely not firing.
Can anyone shed some light on this problem?
BTW, in iOS8 the UIActionSheet is ALSO not generating click events, but in iOS7 this works fine with absolutely no code change.
here is the code:
NSString *alertMessage = #"How do you wish to share ?";
UIAlertController *alertController = [UIAlertController alertControllerWithTitle:#"Share Image"
message:alertMessage
preferredStyle:UIAlertControllerStyleAlert];
// You can add as many actions as you want
UIAlertAction *emailShare = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:#"Share using email"
style:UIAlertActionStyleDefault
handler:^(UIAlertAction *action) {
NSLog(#"EMAIL");
}];
UIAlertAction *smShare = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:#"Share using twitter/facebook"
style:UIAlertActionStyleDefault
handler:^(UIAlertAction *action) {
[self actionSheet:nil didDismissWithButtonIndex:1];
}];
UIAlertAction *cancelShare = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:#"cancel"
style:UIAlertActionStyleDefault
handler:^(UIAlertAction *action) {
[self actionSheet:nil didDismissWithButtonIndex:2];
}];
// Add actions to the controller so they will appear
[alertController addAction:emailShare];
[alertController addAction:smShare];
[alertController addAction:cancelShare];
// Finally present the action
[self presentViewController:alertController animated:YES completion:nil];

You have a few different issues with your code. I've commented on the changes that are necessary. Let me know if you have any questions.
// No need to create a NSString. Just set the message.
// NSString *alertMessage = #"How do you wish to share?";
// If you'd like a UIActionSheet use UIAlertControllerStyleActionSheet as the preferredStyle
// Opposed to UIAlertControllerStyleAlert, which presents a UIAlertView
UIAlertController *alertController = [UIAlertController alertControllerWithTitle:#"Share Image"
message:#"How do you wish to share?" // Message Set
preferredStyle:UIAlertControllerStyleActionSheet]; // Changed to show action sheet
UIAlertAction *emailShare = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:#"Share using email"
style:UIAlertActionStyleDefault
handler:^(UIAlertAction *action) {
[alertController dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
// Call your function here
// ie. [self emailShare];
NSLog(#"First Button");
}];
UIAlertAction *smShare = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:#"Share using twitter/facebook"
style:UIAlertActionStyleDefault
handler:^(UIAlertAction *action) {
// [self actionSheet:nil didDismissWithButtonIndex:1];
// Where did you create actionSheet?
// didDismissWithButtonIndex: is not neccessary
// Just simply dismiss the UIAlertController
[alertController dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
// And then call your function here
// ie. [self twitterShare];
NSLog(#"Second Button");
}];
UIAlertAction *cancelShare = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:#"Cancel"
style:UIAlertActionStyleCancel // Set style to cancel
handler:^(UIAlertAction *action) {
// [self actionSheet:nil didDismissWithButtonIndex:2];
// Where did you create actionSheet?
// didDismissWithButtonIndex: is not neccessary
// Just simply dismiss the UIAlertController
[alertController dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
NSLog(#"Cancel Button");
}];
[alertController addAction:emailShare];
[alertController addAction:smShare];
[alertController addAction:cancelShare];
[self presentViewController:alertController animated:YES completion:nil];
