Answer 1

for XOS use NSWorkspace instead:

- (IBAction)btnPressed:(id)sender {
   NSURL *url = [[NSURL alloc] initWithString: @"https://www.google.com"];
   [[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] openURL:url];
}

Answer 2

The easiest way is to make the UILabel into a UIButton, style it (use Custom type to get rid of button look). Then connect to an Action that opens safari.

The action should do this:

NSURL *url = [[[ NSURL alloc ] initWithString: @"http://www.example.com" ] autorelease];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:url];
