if UNITY_IPHONE

    if (Directory.Exists(Application.persistentDataPath + "/" + filenameToDelete))
         System.IO.File.Delete("/private" + Application.persistentDataPath + "/" + filenameToDelete);

...

Xcode says this....

UnauthorizedAccessException: /private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/E5035393-08CD-486E-82D5-3A4CB2A06462/Documents/BoogityBoogity is a directory at System.IO.File.Delete (System.String path) [0x00000] in :0 at Pause.deleteGhostFiles () [0x00000] in :0 at Pause.Retry () [0x00000] in :0 at UnityEngine.Events.UnityAction.Invoke () [0x00000] in :0 at UnityEngine.Events.UnityEvent.Invoke () [0x00000] in :0 at UnityEngine.EventSystems.ExecuteEvents+EventFunction`1[T1].Invoke (T1 handler, UnityEngine.EventSystems.BaseEventData eventData) [0x00000] in :0

One of the issues is on iOS you can't delete directories if they have files in them. Also there are separate commands for deleting directories and files. Once I understood this, I was able to rewrite and get it to work. Although I wish it were like other systems that allowed you do delete a parent directory and all dirs and files underneath. Really a pain this way.
