NSUrl is not stored as absolutestring in NSUserDefault

I am referring Previous Post for storing NSURL of iPod Library in NSUserDefault. But it is not stored in NSUserDefault after application is closed.

I am using other NSStrings to store in NSUserDefaults which is perfectly done, But when i store NSUrl as absolute string.. it does not stores the value.

What could be the reason??

EDIT

Following code i am using to save NSUserDefault Value:

currentItem = [collection.items objectAtIndex:songCount];
songURL = [currentItem valueForProperty:MPMediaItemPropertyAssetURL];
[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] setObject:[currentItem valueForProperty:MPMediaItemPropertyTitle] forKey:@"songTitle"];
[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] setObject:[songURL absoluteString] forKey:@"songURL"];
avPlayer = [[AVPlayer alloc] initWithURL:songURL];
NSLog(@"songTitle: %@  songURL : %@",[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults]objectForKey:@"songTitle"], songURL);

Following error comes when i try to save the NSURL:

If you want to store NSURL then why are you converting it into string and saving it as string. It will increase your work effort.

You can try this:

NSUserDefaults *defaults=[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];     
[defaults setURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.google.com"] forKey:@"urlValue"];
[defaults synchronize];

NSURL *url=[defaults URLForKey:@"urlValue"];
NSLog(@"%@",url);

The only thing I can think of that would explain it is that the URL is at least partially randomly generated and thus fails to load after you app removes reference to it. What do you mean, "closed"? Backgrounded? Or really terminated?

It could also be that you should be saving it as a string:yourURLString forKey:@"URL" instead of an object. It could be confusing the app. Try NSLog to output the URL string and see what you get. Let me know what it is. That will clarify things.

your string should have property declared...then try to store it in NSUserDefaults
