Answer 1

 NSFileManager *fileManager = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
[fileManager removeItemAtPath:pngFilePath error:NULL];

Answer 2

You use removeItemAtPath method http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/cocoa/reference/foundation/Classes/NSFileManager_Class/Reference/Reference.html#//apple_ref/occ/instm/NSFileManager/removeItemAtPath:error:.

NSFileManager *fileManager = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
[fileManager removeItemAtPath:pngFilePath error:NULL];

Return Value

YES if the removal operation is successful. If the operation is not successful, but the delegate returns YES from the fileManager:shouldProceedAfterError:removingItemAtPath: message, removeItemAtPath:error: also returns YES. Otherwise this method returns NO.
