You can use the following snippet to convert the date to the format you desire. Note that month use uppercase 'MM' in the format:

[dateFormatter setDateFormat:@"MM/dd/yy"];
dateString = [dateFormatter stringFromDate:theDate];

For a full list of the formats available, have a look at the Unicode Standard . With a few minor exceptions, these formats are all supported on the iPhone.
