NSNotificationCenter notifications not sent/received - objective-c

Question

// Question was answered, basicly I should sleep more / code less :)
When my app starts i first load a splash screen, this splashscreen will start a dataDownload when the screen itself is done loading:
Splash.m
#implementation Splash
- (id) init
{
self = [super init];
_lblFunds = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(350, 330, 324,28)];
_lblFunds.numberOfLines = 1;
[_lblFunds setFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:24.0]];
[_lblFunds setTextAlignment: UITextAlignmentCenter];
[_lblFunds setText:#".. Fondsen .."];
[self.view addSubview:_lblFunds];
_lblObjects = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(350, 360, 324,28)];
_lblObjects.numberOfLines = 1;
[_lblObjects setFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:24.0]];
[_lblObjects setTextAlignment: UITextAlignmentCenter];
[_lblObjects setText:#".. Vastgoed Objecten .."];
[self.view addSubview:_lblObjects];
_lblCustomers = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(350, 390, 324,28)];
_lblCustomers.numberOfLines = 1;
[_lblCustomers setFont:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:24.0]];
[_lblCustomers setTextAlignment: UITextAlignmentCenter];
[_lblCustomers setText:#".. Clienten .."];
[self.view addSubview:_lblCustomers];
return self;
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:#selector(fundsLoaded) name:#"FundsDone" object:nil];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:#selector(customersLoaded) name:#"CustomersDone" object:nil];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:#selector(objectsLoaded) name:#"ObjectsDone" object:nil];
}
- (void) fundsLoaded
{
[_lblFunds setText:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"Fondsen geladen: %d",[[DataManager sharedInstance] fundsCount]]];
}
- (void) objectsLoaded
{
[_lblObjects setText:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"Vastgoed Objecten geladen: %d",[[DataManager sharedInstance] objectsCount]]];
}
- (void) customersLoaded
{
[_lblCustomers setText:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"Clienten geladen: %d",[[DataManager sharedInstance] customersCount]]];
}
- (void) viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
[[DataManager sharedInstance] getData];
}
- (void)viewDidUnload
{
[super viewDidUnload];
// Release any retained subviews of the main view.
// e.g. self.myOutlet = nil;
}
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation
{
// Return YES for supported orientations
return YES;
}
#end
The DataManager will then proceed to use its instance of DataLoader to load and parse the data in a seperate thread, whenever data is parsed and stored away a Notification is sent from the DataLoader. If worked with the Notifications a lot before but this time it just will not work and I cannot seem to figure out why not. There is no error or anything, but the functions as set in the observers are never called. Any ideas on what is wrong are very much welcome, I have read quite a few threads on here, and other sites but haven't found my answer yet.

In init, you should put your registration code BEFORE the return statement. Otherwise it will never run.
Cheers!
