BROWSING the IPHONE Directory

24Aug09

looking into the directory files inside the iphone? yes you can do this and you can even put applications and copy, cut paste files to and from the computer/iphone using WINSCP.

here’s how.

LOOKING INTO DIRECTORY GUIDELINES:

1. download “winscp” then hit the exe file after downloading to your computer.

2. it will ask for username password and host.

3.connect your iphone in the computer.

4.go to your iphone setttings – wi-fi – then click the wifi connectivity (should have wireless connection) then search for the info IP ADDRESS.

5. type the ip address of your iphone to the host in winscp

6. type username “root” and alpine as “password”. (or the other way around?! just check if it connects then you’re in)

7. inside winscp you can see on the right side pane the directory files of your iphone and on the left side pane for your computer.

8. if you like to copy the videos from the iphone to your computer just browse in the iphone directory until you find a video folder.

9. you can also view and input applications inside winscp. that i havent tried it out yet but based from my reading it is under the folder var/mobile/

10. enjoy!

note: you can also use “iphonebrowser” but thats a different tutorial.
