See contents of SD card in terminal window on Mac OS X
Solution 1:
To list the contents of the card, first cd /Volumes/<card name>
- in this case cd /Volumes/phone\ card
(the \
escapes the space). Then you can do ls -al
to list the files (hidden and visible) on the card.
If you want to copy files to somewhere else on the drive, you can use cp
. For example, to copy files to your home directory, cp <some file> ~
(or to copy everything, cp -R ./* ~
, where * means "match any character(s)" and ~ is short for your home directory (I don't remember the OS X default directory hierarchy). -R
means copy directories recursively (if cp encounters a directory, it should copy the contents of the directory as well).
man cp
will tell you more about cp (or any other command).
