Thank you Jamie and Jason. Jamie's email has just panicked me as I've
been using CFPreferences rather than NSUserDefaults. It's a system
preference pane and I understood that CFPreferences was the way to do
this. The documents for CFPreferences kept on saying not to
synchronize regularly, so I thought that when synching when the window
closed would be a good option.
That said, if I'm on the wrong track I can always change my strategy
if there's a better way I missed?

Hi there,
I want to save preferences when the user either closes the
preference pane window, clicks the show all button or quits system
preferences. Can I just put the method call in the -(void)dealloc
or is this a bad idea?
This is a bad idea. -(void)dealloc may never be called. You should
do this in your pref pane subclass in the -(void)didUnselect or -
(void)willUnselect functions.
