Use a Plist dictionary for App settings

I want to be able to use a plist for settings Im implementing in my app. I want a dictionary "Settings" to hold my arrays, such as "Debug", "Option 1", Option 2", etc. How would I access "Debug"array under the "Settings" dictionary?

NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES); 
NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0]; 
NSString *myPlistPath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"ProfileManager.plist"]; 
NSDictionary *plistDict = [[NSDictionary alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:myPlistPath]; 

swDebug.on = [plistDict objectForKey:@"Debug"];

.plist

In your example Debug is a string, not an array (which is what you seem to say it is in the question). In either event, the issue is that you are accessing the key in the wrong dict. You have:

swDebug.on = [plistDict objectForKey:@"Debug"];

You would need:

swDebug.on = [[plistDict objectForKey:@"Settings"] objectForKey:@"Debug"];

Since settings is a dictionary within the dictionary plist.
