You can't. You can only access files associated with your own application.

You can't. You can only access files associated with your own application.

Point of technicality here - The images in the Photo Library are technically accessible while within the sandbox. This probably is because UIImagePickerController has to access them from your own app, and there wouldn't be a way to turn on access for only that class and not the rest of your code. That said, its unclear whether Apple likes you getting or even allows access to the files directly. It would likely depend on what you do with it.
