How to access a connected iPhone device from within Terminal?
How can I access the connected iPhone or iPad from within Terminal on OS X? I want to get all the photos (only photos) from the connected iDevice and save it to any directory in my OS X filesystem. I don't want to use the iTunes and instead just want to do it all within Terminal.
I want to get the file path like /Volumes/my_iphone_name
, but for some reasons I didn't find anything such in /Volumes
subdirectory. Also, diskutil list
didn't get me anything that seems related to the connected device.
So where is there my iPhone detected on the entire filesystem?
