To add to Jim's answer above using a category @implementation UIButton (NSCopying) - (id)copyWithZone:(NSZone *)zone { NSData *archivedData = [NSKeyedArchiver archivedDataWithRootObject:self]; UIButton *buttonCopy = [NSKeyedUnarchiver unarchiveObjectWithData: archivedData]; return buttonCopy; } @end if you wanted to copy all of the actions from one button to another, add something like this: for (id target in button.allTargets) { NSArray *actions = [button actionsForTarget:target forControlEvent:UIControlEventTouchUpInside]; for (NSString *action in actions) { [newButton addTarget:target action:NSSelectorFromString(action) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside]; }
