deleted Music folder from desktop Created Music Folder via terminal command then cd /Volumes/IPODNAME/iPod_Control/Music ( I copy and paste name from iTunes and have also renamed the iPhone in iTunes earlier. then cp -Rp * ~/Desktop/Music/ then I get shell prompt immediately (I think the first time I had done this i could see files being moved or created...now shell prompt comes up immediately and the filer is empty. |

You have spaces and apostrophes in the device name-- those need to be escaped on the command line. See my PM. |

By escaped, I mean the slashes in the command. Mark's Phone - Not escaped. Mark\'s\ Phone - Escaped. Or you can just change the device name to one without spaces and other special characters. |
Marks-MacBook-Air:~ m270$ Marks-MacBook-Air:~ m270$ mkdir ~/Desktop/Music Marks-MacBook-Air:~ m270$ cd /Volumes/markphone/iPod_Control/Music -bash: cd: /Volumes/markphone/iPod_Control/Music: No such file or directory Marks-MacBook-Air:~ m270$ ====== I changed the iPhone name in iTunes to "markphone" |
Mark, I feel your frustration..hope you get it worked out. What a pita.

I don't get why you would need to do this on a regular basis. Don't you sync your phone with your computer? You can also "Transfer Purchases" in iTunes if you manually manage.

Are you sure you want to continue?" No, I'm not sure. I don't want to risk deleting anything which I know has happened before because there are songs I know I had and they're gone now. So I sidestepped all that and bought the iRip program. It works. |
I have my library backed up on my daughter's computer, I guess I'll sync it when I see her and copy the library to a hard drive or something. then copy it to two other macs...I think I am allowed to copy MY OWN FING MUSIC... ripped from CD's ...what a pain in the ass. |
