Ahh, you want to read defaults for some other app. Nope. Can't
do that. Says so right in the doc:
Sandbox Considerations
A sandboxed app cannot access or modify the preferences for any other app. (For example, if you add another app's domain using theaddSuiteNamed: method, you do not gain access to that app's preferences.)
Attempting to access or modify another app's preferences does not result in an error, but when you do, OS X actually reads and writes files located within your app's container, rather than the actual preference files for the other application.
