PathforResource issue with a .ics file, objective C

I´m just learning programming in Objective C and I got stuck with getting the information from a .ics file to appear on my tableview.

The tableview works fine. I´ve tried it with information stored directly to the NSArray. I get a detailed information view when clicking on the headers.

When i try to get the information from the .ics file I don´t even get the headers to appear. I just get a empty window.

I'd guess your problem is this:

NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"timeedit" ofType:@"ics"];
NSDictionary *dict = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject: path forKey:@"Calendar app"];

An iCal file (.ics) is not an xml file in property list format, which means this should return nil. You should find a different way to read iCal files.
