Hi mates, do you know if Apple allow us to write an aiff sound file to hard drive (sfrecord) without opening the dialogue message of "open"? I’m trying to write a sound file in the same location of my app BUT when I make the bundle the recorded files are lost…, I can not find then neither inside /Contents, or MacOS… Any idea? Should I preset an absolute location? like MacintoshHD? would be possible?

I'm pretty sure that Apple will not allow you to write to your own application bundle for an App Store app - you have to consider the entire app bundle as "read only." One place you can write to however without prompting the user first for permission is ~/Library/Application Support/YOUR_APP_NAME/

Thanks Dan, ok. I'll try this. Should I specify this location at sfrecord arguments, right?

I can't remember if you specify it as an argument, or whether you must specify the path/name in the "open" command. But you'll figure that out.. :-)
