Also bannerViewDidLoadAd code;

- (void)bannerViewDidLoadAd:(ADBannerView *)banner
{
    if (!bannerIsVisible)
    {
        [UIView beginAnimations:@"animateAdBannerOn" context:NULL];
        // assumes the banner view is offset -50 pixels so that it is not visible.
        banner.frame = CGRectOffset(banner.frame, 0, -50); // if the banner is on top of the screen use 50
        [UIView commitAnimations];
        bannerIsVisible = YES;
    }
}

Please help me fix the same. Thank you.

    Basically you’re calling bannerViewDidLoadAd: with the wrong object type. It appears that you’re using some sort of dispatch mechanism to do this. Either you specified the wrong object when you set up the dispatch request for that method, or you failed to retain the object and it’s been deleted and replaced with a NSType object.

    So find where bannerViewDidLoadAd: is mentioned in your code and make sure the object being used with it is correct and is appropriately retained.
