If it's crashing in the simulator but not on the device it may be a
problem with the simulator configuration. If it crashes on both it may
be a bug in LiveCode.
But I think John's main point was that there is no "Preferences" folder
on iOS.
See the Dictionary entry for "specialFolderPath" for a list of supported
constants available for each OS.
