I need help with user location.

I keep getting 0.0000 returned back from my Location manager. I integrated the protocol and imported the class for CoreLocation. When I log out my newLocation object (CLLocation) I get 0.0000 for both my Lat and Long. Can someone please help me.

I just want my coordinates, nothing complicated. (Mapkit).

I have use both a device and the simulator for this. The same thing happens.

Please Help.

I suggest you to use parse.com's PFGeo Point for these kind of stuff. It makes it very much easy to get the coordinates with few lines of code.
