Answer 1

NSString* plistPath = nil;
NSFileManager* manager = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
 if ((plistPath = [[[NSBundle mainBundle] bundlePath] stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"PathTo.plist"])) 
   {
    if ([manager isWritableFileAtPath:plistPath]) 
     {
       NSMutableDictionary* infoDict = [NSMutableDictionary dictionaryWithContentsOfFile:plistPath];
      [infoDict setObject:@"foo object" forKey:@"fookey"];
      [infoDict writeToFile:plistPath atomically:NO];
      [manager setAttributes:[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:[NSDate date] forKey:NSFileModificationDate] ofItemAtPath:[[NSBundle mainBundle] bundlePath] error:nil];
     }
   }

How you have initialized groupPath? It should be the path of document directory, not the path of resource directory.

You should do something similar :

NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
NSString *filePath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:FILE_NAME];

You can not edit the file that is present in the workspace.
