I'm trying to change the font color of the text on my back button in my UINavigationControllerBar

    [[UIBarButtonItem appearance] setTitleColor:[UIColor redColor] forState:UIControlStateNormal];

gives me this error: [_UIBarItemAppearance setTitleColor:forState:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x69aeb70'

Any help? Thanks!

NSMutableDictionary *attributes = [NSMutableDictionary dictionary];
[attributes setValue:[UIColor colorWithRed:(163.0f/255.0f) green:(0.0f) blue:(0.0f) alpha:1.0f] forKey:UITextAttributeTextColor];
[attributes setValue:[UIColor clearColor] forKey:UITextAttributeTextShadowColor];
[attributes setValue:[NSValue valueWithUIOffset:UIOffsetMake(0.0, 0.0)] forKey:UITextAttributeTextShadowOffset];
[[UIBarButtonItem appearance] setTitleTextAttributes:attributes forState:UIControlStateNormal];

seems to work!
