    The performSelector: method is equivalent to sending a selector message directly to the receiver, so it cannot be canceled. I.e., these two lines have the same effect:

    [self performSelector:@selector(vibe)];
    [self vibe];
    

    The cancelPreviousPerformRequestsWithTarget: (and similar) methods can only cancel selector messages which are not performed immediately. You can send such a message via the performSelector:withObject:afterDelay: (and similar) methods.

    See Table 3-2 of the Run Loop Management section of Apple’s Thread Programming Guide for more information.
