Just set a delegate to your UIPopoverController and implement the following method:

- (BOOL)popoverControllerShouldDismissPopover:(UIPopoverController *)popoverController {
     return NO;
}

From the docs:

This method is called in response to user-initiated attempts to dismiss the popover. It is not called when you dismiss the popover using the dismissPopoverAnimated: method of the popover controller.

If you do not implement this method in your delegate, the default return value is assumed to be YES.
