[self.view addSubview:placeholderview];
UIActionSheet *actionSheet = [[UIActionSheet alloc] initWithTitle:@"" delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:@"Cancel" destructiveButtonTitle:nil otherButtonTitles:@"Open File",@"Save FIle",@"New File",@"Export Image",nil];
[actionSheet showFromRect:CGRectMake(0,0, 320, 10) inView:placeholderview animated:YES];
[actionSheet release];

UIActionSheet is designed to be presented from the bottom of the screen.

It provides methods for presenting from a toolbar or tab bar in cases where those UI elements may cause obstruction.

Why are you wanting to show the action sheet in the middle of the screen. I wouldn't recommend this because it looks wrong, and isn't the designed behaviour of the control.

The method you are currently using is for iPad - it shouldn't be used on iPhone, as it causes undefined behaviour (as you are experiencing).
