MapKit help. Can't get my location to show up first - ios

Question

I want to develop a map that shows my location and has pins of other locations on the map.
I've gotten the map to show up and the pins to show up too, it also locates me but it doesn't zoom into my location first. How can I get it to show my location first? When I open up the mapview it just shows the last pin I put into the code.
Here is my code.
mapview.h
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import <MapKit/MapKit.h>
#interface mapview : UIViewController {
MKMapView *mapview1;
}
#property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutletMKMapView *mapview1;
-(IBAction)setMap:(id)sender;
-(IBAction)getlocation;
#end
mapview.m
#import "mapview.h"
#import "NewClass.h"
#implementation mapview
#synthesize mapview1;
-(IBAction)getlocation {
mapview1.showsUserLocation = YES;
}
-(IBAction)setMap:(id)sender {
switch (((UISegmentedControl *) sender).selectedSegmentIndex) {
case 0:
mapview1.mapType = MKMapTypeStandard;
break;
case 1:
mapview1.mapType = MKMapTypeSatellite;
break;
case 2:
mapview1.mapType = MKMapTypeHybrid;
break;
default:
break;
}
}

You've set showsUserLocation but if you read the Apple docs you'll see that that function only turns on the blue dot, it doesn't zoom or pan the view. "http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/MapKit/Reference/MKMapView_Class/MKMapView/MKMapView.html#//apple_ref/occ/instp/MKMapView/showsUserLocation
What you want to do is set the user tracking mode to userfollows.
Other code tips:
Put all those places in an array and loop over them, don't create them one at a time like that
Don't setRegion on the map for every region you make. You're trying to get the map to zoom in on the user and each setRegion changes where the map is looking. Only the last one will have any effect anyway.
You don't need to create a region just to get the coordinates for an annotation
