Re: Dictionary won't write to disk

OK, that's good to know.  However, when I do:

NSURL *temp = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:[@"~/Desktop/Songs.xml" stringByExpandingTildeInPath]];
if ([myDictionary writeToURL:temp atomically:YES] == YES) {
NSLog(@"worked");
} else {
NSLog(@"failed");
}

it always outputs "failed".

Any other ideas?

Only brute force to narrow down the problem. Make sure it works with an empty dictionary. Try writing to a dictionary. Try removing half the dictionary entries. Try removing all but one of the dictionary entries. Try to find a dictionary that works and a slightly different dictionary that doesn't work, and study the difference between the two.

Is it possible the dictionary or one of its subobjects contains something that the -writeTo methods don't like, i.e., something that is not an NSData, NSDate, NSNumber, NSString, NSArray, or NSDictionary?
