How programmatically move a UIScrollView to focus in a control above keyboard?

Here’s what worked for me. Having an instance variable that holds the value of the UIScrollView’s offset before the view is adjusted for the keyboard so you can restore the previous state after the UITextField returns:

//header
@interface TheViewController : UIViewController <UITextFieldDelegate> {
    CGPoint svos;
}


//implementation
- (void)textFieldDidBeginEditing:(UITextField *)textField {
    svos = scrollView.contentOffset;
    CGPoint pt;
    CGRect rc = [textField bounds];
    rc = [textField convertRect:rc toView:scrollView];
    pt = rc.origin;
    pt.x = 0;
    pt.y -= 60;
    [scrollView setContentOffset:pt animated:YES];           
}

- (BOOL)textFieldShouldReturn:(UITextField *)textField {
    [scrollView setContentOffset:svos animated:YES]; 
    [textField resignFirstResponder];
    return YES;
}
