Shall I get its retainCount and then release it that many times?


For heavens' sake, NO!

Ignore retain counts. They are not reliable evidence of anything you can use. Instead, just follow the rules:

http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/MemoryMgmt/Articles/mmRules.html

I'm doing alloc and initWithDictionary to get an instance of Volume.
I have to do [selectedPTVolume retain]; when allocing to get it to work properly.

Show your code. This sounds wrong, but without seeing the code it can't really be inferred from the description.
