Don't have the pictures from directory on CollectionView

I am showing the Pictures in all of the Directories however It does not display the pictures. I am putting NSLog in the code so that I can find out which code is working and I only get "j" in the log. I do not see the "a" in the log. What do you think is wrong?
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
allImagesArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
NSArray *locations = [[NSArray alloc]initWithObjects:#"Bottoms", #"Dress", #"Coats", #"Others", #"hats", #"Tops",nil ];
NSString *fPath = documentsDirectory;
for(NSString *component in locations)
{
fPath = [fPath stringByAppendingPathComponent:component];
}
NSArray *directoryContent = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] directoryContentsAtPath: fPath];
collectionTrash.delegate =self;
collectionTrash.dataSource=self;
for(NSString *str in directoryContent){
NSLog(#"i");
NSString *finalFilePath = [fPath stringByAppendingPathComponent:str];
NSData *data = [NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:finalFilePath];
if(data)
{
UIImage *image = [UIImage imageWithData:data];
[allImagesArray addObject:image];
NSLog(#"array:%#",[allImagesArray description]);
}}
for(NSString *folder in locations) {
// get the folder contents
for(NSString *file in directoryContent) {
// load the image
}
}}
- (NSInteger)numberOfSectionsInCollectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView
{
NSLog(#"j");
return 1;
}
- (NSInteger)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView numberOfItemsInSection:(NSInteger)section
{
return [allImagesArray count];
}
-(UICollectionViewCell *)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView cellForItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
static NSString *reuseID = #"ReuseID";
TrashCell *mycell = (TrashCell *) [collectionView dequeueReusableCellWithReuseIdentifier:reuseID forIndexPath:indexPath];
UIImageView *imageInCell = (UIImageView*)[mycell viewWithTag:1];
imageInCell.image = [allImagesArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
NSLog(#"a");
return mycell;
}
Feel free to as for more code.

If you look at the exception, it tells you very precisely what's wrong:
You are trying to calling a 'length' method on an array, which simply does not exist. You want to use count here instead. It's not in the code you posted, though - so just do a search for length and you'll probably find it rather easily if the project isn't huge.
NSString *fPath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:locations]; gives you a warning, because locations is an array. Think about it - just doesn't make sense: which of its elements do you want to add to the path?
As I think about it, both errors probably relate to each other: You simply ignored the compile time error - or warning - for the fPath, and now the stringByAppendingPathComponent: method calls length on its parameter, which is a method of the expected NSString.
Bottom line: Do not ignore compiler warnings! If you fix those, you probably reduce crashes, too.
