Are you sure in the using of 'library/application support'? There is
of the matter is that one is designed for the app data not for the
user data.
Maybe you should save such files in a directory relative to the bundle
or in the bundle itself (not good idea). In this case you can launch
your app from your drive.
If your app is in /Users/user/yourapp, your files in
/Users/user/yourapp/Application Support, it looks:
NSString *appSupport = [[[[NSBundle mainBundle] bundlePath]
stringByDeletingLastPathComponent] stringByAppendingPathComponent:
@"Appication Support"];

I don't really fancy managaing some kind of sync, and thought the best solution would be to store the app and all the data/images on a thumb drive. There's only me using the app, and having to walk and get the drive from the office isn't a huge headache, and I can easily take it with me if I want to work elsewhere (not on my home network).
