Answer 1

Try this method:

NSError *error;
NSDictionary* attributes = [[NSFileManager defaultManager] 
                             attributesOfItemAtPath: filePath 
                                              error: &error];

You can then query [attributes fileCreationDate] or [attributes fileSize]. See NSFileManager.h for the NSFileAttributes category of NSDictionary.
