I have found that I should use Security.framework. Then I wrote

What do I do wrong? Could you advise me how to fix code?
You can't elevate an existing task's privileges, so you'll have to
do whatever you need to do in a helper app invoked with
AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges(). See the
BetterAuthorizationSample sample code on ADC for details.
Nick is correct about BetterAuthorizationSample.
While scratching my head over BetterAuthorizationSample during a week
or so last year, I wrote a wrapper for it which you might find useful
or at least enlightening....

Read the readme.rtf in the project. One of the "application cases"
included in the demo is writing to kCFPreferencesAnyUser, since I
needed to do that too.
