Is there any solution ? . thanks.

UIAlertView *alertView = [[UIAlertView alloc]initWithTitle:nil message:@"\n\n\n\nloading.." delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:@"ok" otherButtonTitles:nil];
[alertView show];

UIActivityIndicatorView *activityIndicator = [[UIActivityIndicatorView alloc] initWithActivityIndicatorStyle:UIActivityIndicatorViewStyleGray];
activityIndicator.frame= CGRectMake(50, 10, 37, 37);
activityIndicator.autoresizingMask = UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleTopMargin | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleRightMargin | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleBottomMargin | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleLeftMargin;

[alertView addSubview:activityIndicator];

[activityIndicator startAnimating];

Apple deprecated addSubview method in case of UIAlertView. So you can't add any subviews any more to AlertView, for example : activity indicator or some progress bar.

Here you can look at my question where people share custom Alerts which will support adding controls
