This tutorial will guide you through the steps required to access your jailbroken iPhone or iPod Touch through the Finder, via Wi-Fi.
- OK first things first - you’ll need to have the iClarified source added to Installer.app. If you need help adding sources, see this tutorial, and add: http://installer.iclarified.com as a repository.
- Select iClarified from the Install list. Now select AFP from the list of packages.
- Tap the Install button in the upper-right corner.
- And then tap the large red Install button.
- After AFP is installed you’ll be prompted to restart your iPhone or iPod Touch. Do so now.
- When your iPhone/iPod Touch has rebooted, select Settings from the dashboard. Tap the Wi-Fi button.
- Now tap the small > button next to the Network that you’re currently connected to.
- Make note of the IP Address - you’ll need it in a second.
- Now back in OS X open a Finder window. Select Go from the menu bar, then Connect to Server… from the drop-down list.
- Enter in afp://ip-address-of-your-iphone (where ip-address-of-your-iphone is the number you noted back in step #8) and then click Connect.
- After a couple of seconds you’ll be prompted to enter a user name and password. Enter root as the user name, and unless you’ve changed the default root password, alpine as the password. Click Connect.
- Now you’ll be asked which volumes you want to mount. Select iPhone Root FileSystem and click OK.
- You’ll now have a Shared entry titled localhost in your Finder menu. From here you can navigate through all the folders on your iPhone or iPod Touch. As you’d expect, you can open/view files, copy files to and from your device etc. Be careful though, esp. when it comes to deleting or modifying files.
