few days ago i have same problem. i tried this its work for me :

to pass value to the server

    NSData *data = [textView.text dataUsingEncoding:NSNonLossyASCIIStringEncoding];
    NSString *goodValue = [[[NSString alloc] initWithData:data encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding] autorelease];

    goodValue = [goodValue stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"\\" withString:@"\\\\"];

when fetch value from the server

    NSString *goodValue = [StaticClass urlDecode:[dataDict objectForKey:@"comment_text"]];
    NSData *newdata=[goodValue dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding allowLossyConversion:YES];
    NSString *mystring=[[NSString alloc] initWithData:newdata encoding:NSNonLossyASCIIStringEncoding];
