Answer 1

You don't provide much information as to what you've tried, but I assume from the tag that this is on the iPhone. In addition to Pat's suggestion, make sure that the plist you are trying to edit is not within your app bundle, but located within an editable location like Documents or Library within your sandbox.

Answer 2

I would look at the NSDictionary method:
- (BOOL)writeToFile:(NSString *)path atomically:(BOOL)flag

I'm sure there's a similar method for NSArray.
