Hi Alex-
When enumerating the array, you've defined the objects in the collection as
NSDictionary (which doesn't have that method)...
for (NSDictionary * myAnnotation in self.mapView.annotations)
Change the above to:
for (MyLocation * myAnnotation in self.mapView.annotations)
And the compiler should be happier...
Hope this helps!
