It seems that, in certain situations, CFStringGetCStringPtr returns NULL even if the string is valid: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9166291/converting-a-cfstringref-to-char <https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9166291/converting-a-cfstringref-to-char> I did not see that in my testing but it could be a different strings settings you are reading as compared to mine and/or slightly different behavior between OS versions.
