Answer 1

Convert your UILabel text in to date format using NSDateFormatter and put that value replacing "Date" in following example:

UIDatepicker *datePicker;

NSDate *Date=[NSDate date];

datePicker.minimumDate=Date;

Answer 2

You can use NSDateFormatter and use setDateFormat method for setting Date format.

[formatter setDateFormat:@"MMM dd,yyyy"];

NSDate *date = [formatter dateFromString:lblDate.text];

datePicker.minimumDate=date;
