Hi Graham,
App data store location depends a lot on who needs it and when.
Generally, if the data is user-specific, then storing in that user's
Application Data directory would probably be the most appropriate (~/
Library/Application Support/appname/). Global persistent data can
also travel with the app by storing it within the app's bundle, which
can be obtained using [NSBundle mainBundle].

Hi,
I am new to Cocoa programming and wanted to ask where I should
start looking to learn the 'correct' method and location for
storing user data (such as a large number of images). I have
already been using the User defaults plist for simple application
preferences for the user, but I'd like to know where files should
be stored for a user. The images being stored are really just a cache.
Kind regards,
Graham
