title: Convert .NET DateTime.Ticks Property to Date in Objective-C
body: <p>I have a timestamp that represents the the number of 100-nanosecond intervals that have elapsed since 12:00:00 midnight, January 1, 0001 (according to <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.datetime.ticks.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.datetime.ticks.aspx</a>). This value is generated by a server written in C#, but I need to convert this to a date in Objective-C on iOS.</p>
  
  <p>For example, the timestamp 634794644225861250 is supposed to give a date of August 2, 2012.</p>
