Answer 1

You can handle ioError event which FileReference dispatches when you don't have permissions to write into directory.

Answer 2

Hello.

You can write to a file with AIR only if the file is under "applicationStorageDirectory". This is the only folder that has write permision.

If some know more please correct me.
