If I have a file whose path is ~/Desktop/foo.txt, and I am given a reference to it with no particular capitalization (i.e. ~/desktop/foo.txt)
, can I resolve that string to the proper capitalization? Indeed, Cocoa methods which do things with files are mostly not case sensitive, but I would like to present that path to the user in the way that it is supposed to be.

Cocoa methods which do things with files of course *ARE* case sensitive; only some very very badly designed filesystems (like MS DOS, Windoze or HFS) are not.
