Oh, I didn't consider that. initWithContentsOfURL: apparently uses the cache. You should go back to using your old method of first loading an NSData and then initing the image with that.

You are doing the right thing, releasing the image after setting the image view image. The image view will retain the image, so it is safe for you to release it. Since you alloced it, you need to release it.

Hmm. Spoke too soon. The below code works - the first time. When I click the button to reload the image, it doesn't load the updated image (which I know has changed by looking at the original website). The old code does refresh the image. It must be caching it somewhere and not reloading it.

Nope, it is perfectly ok to do:

NSString *str = @"whatever";

I'm not sure what the original poster's problem might be. The code looks ok. Are you sure the image you are downloading isn't corrupt?

You could also try;

NSImage *image = [[NSImage alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString@"http://www.rccl.com/rc/image/vywebcam.jpg";]];

The image will then be downloaded from the URL automatically.
