Answer 1

NSURLConnectionDownloadDelegate only works for Newstand apps so far. Please file a bug.

Answer 2

You could try to use NSURLConnectionDataDelegate instead. It won't show up in the docs, but it's actually there (use Open Quickly to find it Cmd+Shift+O).

There you could use following methods

1. - (void)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didReceiveData:(NSData *)data
2. - (void)connectionDidFinishLoading:(NSURLConnection *)connection
