Could you post the stack trace? Just for debugging purposed: What happens if 
you define another method (not an CoreData-Property)
like:

- (NSString*) categoryPlain
{
     NSString* categoryEncryptedOrNot = self.category;
     if ([self.isEncrypted boolValue]) {
          // decrypt
          return decryptedCategory;
     } 
     return categoryEncryptedOrNot;
}       

and leave "category" as a @dynamic-property. Maybe CoreDate gets confused if 
you retrieve the value, but change 
it after your didAccessValueForKey:-message send

Cheers, 

Felix
