You need to make sure that this .xyz file is in the Copy Resources phase of your application's target.

simple drag n drop to your resources folder and check copy items to resources folder option. That's it.

If we only do that, the file would not appear in application. I add new file in XCode. I choose empty file and give extension .xyz. That appears in XCode but no in application. Thanks for your response. :)

what do you mean with "the file wasn't in resource folder" ? do you want to move it into Documents directory ? if yes, you just can move your file from resource into Documents, i was do something like that with this code :

[[NSFileManager defaultManager] moveItemAtPath:resourcePath toPath:documentsPath error:NULL];
