If I put an object into a NSDictionary will there be a strong pointer to it? I just want to make sure that it won’t get deleted (using ARC) while I still need it.

No they wont get deleted. Dictionaries and arrays retain your objects and release them as soon as they are themselves released or the objects are removed from them.
