This lecture together with the following one addresses the iCloud and how to use it for sharing documents among user’s devices. Using the iCloud is like using an URL of a shared directory with restrictions deriving from latency and shared access. It is setup in Xcode by enabling Entitlements.

URLs for the iCloud are derived via the file manager:

[[NSFileManager defaultManager] URLForUbiquityContainerIdentifier:nil];

Lecture fourteen is named “14. Core Data Demo (November 10, 2011)” and can be found at iTunes. Its slides are available at Stanford.

The theoretical part of this lecture is quite short providing an overview about Core Data thread safety and its usability for table views.

NSManagedObjectContext is not thread safe, thus it can only be accessed in the thread that created it. Because access is usually very fast, using the main thread is mostly file. Another approach is to use
