You're not using LogString correctly. I'm assuming it's a string, since that's the logical choice for an object with a -length method (and that's not already an NSData).

If that's the case, you should do:

data = [LogString dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
file = [NSFileHandle fileHandleForUpdatingAtPath:filePath];
[file seekToEndOfFile];
[file writeData: data];
[file closeFile];
