Hi Chris, Reading the developer documentation on Apple's site for MKAnnotation, this is what it says for setCoordinate:
setCoordinate: Sets the new center point of the annotation. - (void)setCoordinate:(CLLocationCoordinate2D)newCoordinate Parameters newCoordinate The new center point for the annotation. Discussion Annotations that support dragging should implement this method to update the position of the annotation. Availability Available in iOS 4.0 and later. Declared In MKAnnotation.h Calling setCoordinate() in Objective-C will not magically make your annotation update its location on the screen. You'll have to use a similar trick as to what I suggested to make it work in Objective-C as well. To the best of my understanding, this method doesn't move the MKAnnotation on the map like you seem to believe, it gets set by the MKMapView when the user drags the annotation to another location. If I'm wrong, please provide me with some documentation explaining why I'm wrong (preferably Apple documentation) or at least an Objective-C program demonstrating it.
