using iPhoneInterface to get a file

**tehmacuser** · 07-15-2007, 02:12 PM

I can't figure out how to copy a system file on the iPhone to my Mac. How can you do this? Think the opposite of putfile. I tried getfile but it doesn't do anything

Thanks,

I can't get this to work for some reason. If I try to getfile anything, the file appears as one would expect but just keeps getting larger and larger and never stops. 16GBs seems a little big for the Calculator app. Anyone else having this problem?

Hmm... haven't seen that yet. I don't have a Windows box on hand here.. anyone can confirm or deny this on their Windows box?

the getfile command works for me on xp, however all the png files I attempt to open in PS are invalid? I will try to open an app file when I get home.

I tried to getfile DisplayOrder.plist and iphone interface crashed, Im running xp-sp2. I havent tried png's. Does anyone have a copy of each file in a zip or something incase we need to restore just one png or .plist?

Did you jailbreak your phone first?

**arthursdomain** · 07-18-2007, 07:15 PM

Have you tried following LoringStudios' tutorial in the skinning section?
