my contact not add in addressbook in ios 7 - iphone

Question

I am a beginner in iOS development; this code is working in iOS 6 but does not work in iOS 7 ...
My code is below, I want to add contacts into my address book. I am developing an app where I have gone through many links, and I have following code, but now I am stuck...
I have imported:
#import <AddressBook/AddressBook.h>
#import <AddressBookUI/AddressBookUI.h>
ViewController.m file
ABAddressBookRef ab = ABAddressBookCreate();
// To add a new ab entry with telephone number
ABRecordRef newPerson = ABPersonCreate();
ABRecordSetValue(newPerson, kABPersonFirstNameProperty, (__bridge CFStringRef) nameFirststr, nil);
ABRecordSetValue(newPerson, kABPersonLastNameProperty, (__bridge CFStringRef)#"Jones", nil);
//phone
ABMutableMultiValueRef phoneNumberMultiValue = ABMultiValueCreateMutable(kABMultiStringPropertyType);
ABMultiValueAddValueAndLabel(phoneNumberMultiValue ,(__bridge CFStringRef)myphone,kABPersonPhoneMobileLabel, NULL);
ABRecordSetValue(newPerson, kABPersonPhoneProperty, phoneNumberMultiValue, nil);
// Adreess
ABMutableMultiValueRef multiAddress = ABMultiValueCreateMutable(kABMultiDictionaryPropertyType);
NSMutableDictionary *addressDictionary = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] init];
if (Address)
{
if (Address)
addressDictionary[(NSString *) kABPersonAddressStreetKey] = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#\n%#", Address, Address];
else
addressDictionary[(NSString *) kABPersonAddressStreetKey] = Address;
// if (true)
// addressDictionary[(NSString *)kABPersonAddressCityKey] = #"city";
// if (true)
// addressDictionary[(NSString *)kABPersonAddressStateKey] = #"city";
// if (true)
// addressDictionary[(NSString *)kABPersonAddressZIPKey] = #"city";
// if (true)
// addressDictionary[(NSString *)kABPersonAddressCountryKey] = #"city";
}
ABMultiValueAddValueAndLabel(multiAddress, (__bridge CFDictionaryRef) addressDictionary, kABWorkLabel, NULL);
ABRecordSetValue(newPerson, kABPersonAddressProperty, multiAddress, nil);
// email
if (emailstr)
{
ABMutableMultiValueRef emailMultiValue = ABMultiValueCreateMutable(kABMultiStringPropertyType);
ABMultiValueAddValueAndLabel(emailMultiValue, (__bridge CFStringRef) emailstr, kABWorkLabel, NULL);
ABRecordSetValue(newPerson, kABPersonEmailProperty, emailMultiValue, nil);
}
if (Organization)
{
ABRecordSetValue(newPerson, kABPersonOrganizationProperty, (__bridge CFStringRef)Organization, nil);
}
if (title)
{
ABRecordSetValue(newPerson, kABPersonJobTitleProperty, (__bridge CFStringRef)title, nil);
}
if (notes)
{
ABRecordSetValue(newPerson, kABPersonNoteProperty, (__bridge CFStringRef)notes, nil);
}
if (webUrl)
{
ABMutableMultiValueRef urlMultiValue = ABMultiValueCreateMutable(kABMultiStringPropertyType);
ABMultiValueAddValueAndLabel(urlMultiValue, (__bridge CFStringRef) webUrl, kABPersonHomePageLabel, NULL);
ABRecordSetValue(newPerson, kABPersonURLProperty, urlMultiValue, nil);
}
ABAddressBookAddRecord(ab, newPerson, nil);
ABAddressBookSave(ab,NULL);
if (ABAddressBookSave(ab, nil)) {
NSLog(#"\nPerson Saved successfuly");
UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:nil message:#"Your contact sucessfully Add" delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:nil otherButtonTitles:#"Ok", nil];
[alert show];
} else {
NSLog(#"\n Error Saving person to AddressBook");
UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:nil message:#"Error...!!!" delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:nil otherButtonTitles:#"Ok", nil];
[alert show];
}

Answer 1

check if addressbook is allowed
ABAddressBookRef addressBookRef = ABAddressBookCreateWithOptions(NULL, NULL);
if (ABAddressBookGetAuthorizationStatus() == kABAuthorizationStatusNotDetermined) {
ABAddressBookRequestAccessWithCompletion(addressBookRef, ^(bool granted, CFErrorRef error) {
// First time access has been granted, add the contact
[self addContact];
});
}
else if (ABAddressBookGetAuthorizationStatus() == kABAuthorizationStatusAuthorized) {
// The user has previously given access, add the contact
[self addContact];
}
else
{
UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:#"Access Denied" message:#"Please give access to AddressBook via settings." delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:#"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil];
[alert show];
// The user has previously denied access
// Send an alert telling user to change privacy setting in settings app
}
also replace first line
CFErrorRef * error = NULL;
ABAddressBookRef addressBook = ABAddressBookCreateWithOptions(NULL, error);

try this code...
ABPeoplePickerNavigationController *peoplePicker=[[ABPeoplePickerNavigationController alloc] init];
ABAddressBookRef addressBook = [peoplePicker addressBook];

modified code:
CFErrorRef * error = NULL;
ABAddressBookRef addressBook = ABAddressBookCreateWithOptions(NULL, error);
if (ABAddressBookGetAuthorizationStatus() == kABAuthorizationStatusNotDetermined) {
ABAddressBookRequestAccessWithCompletion(addressBookRef, ^(bool granted, CFErrorRef error) {
// First time access has been granted, add the contact
[self addContact];
});
}
else if (ABAddressBookGetAuthorizationStatus() == kABAuthorizationStatusAuthorized) {
// The user has previously given access, add the contact
[self addContact];
}

ABAddressBookRef addressBookRef = ABAddressBookCreateWithOptions(NULL, NULL);

}
else if (ABAddressBookGetAuthorizationStatus() == kABAuthorizationStatusAuthorized) {
// The user has previously given access, add the contact

else
{
