[java] How to add a new line of text to an existing file in Java?

You can use the FileWriter(String fileName, boolean append) constructor if you want to append data to file.

Change your code to this:

From FileWriter javadoc:

Constructs a FileWriter object given a file name. If the second argument is true, then bytes will be written to the end of the file rather than the beginning.
