Is it possible if I have a NSString and I want to use NSJSONSerialization? How do I do this?

First you will need to convert your NSString to NSData by doing the following

NSData *data = [stringData dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];

then simply use the JSONObjectWithData method to convert it to JSON

id json = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data options:0 error:nil];
