Next time you're in that situation, download this: http://code.google.com/p/iphonebrowser/wiki/Usage
That's a nifty little Windows app called iPhoneBrowser. It allows you to mount any iOS device, not just iPhone, and access it directly with a file browser. Over USB cable, no internet required. Your device does not have to be jailbroken for this. If it's not jailbroken, you'll only have access to a sandboxed "Home Folder", which is actually the /private/var/mobile/Library/Documents folder. That's the same folder that Goodreader has access to. You'll have full read/write control to access any type of file you want to put there. If your device is jailbroken, you'll have access to the entire filesystem. Which is another nice reason to jailbreak.
If the device is jailbroken, there are lots of other methods to directly access the filesystem as well. |
I can't jailbreak it since it's technically not mine. But this is nice to know. Thanks!
Is there any way to prevent driver installation from automatically installing iTunes when I plug in the device?
