Umm, read the error message. It tells you that the object you're passing isn't an image...

I have looked at the information on NSImageView's "setImage"
setImage:
- (void)setImage:(NSImage *)image
Lets you specify the image the receiver displays. [...]
and it doesn't say much about it, any ideas what the problem is and a
solution?

It tells you as much as you need -- the object you set must be an NSImage.

NSString *myImage;
myImage = @"onstate.png";
[statusImage setImage:(NSImage *)myImage];

Why do you think that casting something that you originally defined and created as an NSString might transform it into an NSImage? I suggest reviewing the basic documentation for Objective-C <http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/ CocoaObjects/index.html>, and looking elsewhere in the documentation for NSImage for other ways of creating an image object.
