Hi folks.
I know this have been asked for before, and there was no answers, so I'd
try again.
Because of a system-crash, lots of my music in my iTunes got lost, and
lots of songs lost their names and tags.
To make the recovery-process a bit easier, I'd copy the music from my
iPod first (since it is the most important music), and then begin
sorting things out in the folders with the iTunes Library.
I've taken a look at different applications that maybe should do the
job, but most of that ones looks like crappy stuff that one also have to
pay for... I don't trust that ones at all.
On old iPods, it was possible to just connect it to a computer, and show
hidden files. Then the music folder got revealed, but with folders
inside it with weird names with subfolders with mp3 and m4a-files also
with weird names. But it worked.
I tried it on my new-bought MacBook Pro, but impossible. It didn't show
up when using the terminal either :(
So I thought I'd try to access it by using the root-user, but to use the
root-user is mostly impossible in OS X 10.6.5.
Also Apple have guides for accessing the root-user on their pages, but
they don't work at all...
So one of my last solution that I can come up with, is to jailbreak the
iPod, coz that will most probably work.
Speaking of jailbreaking, can I kind of "unjailbreak" it after I've
copied the music to the computer?
If anyone here have better and easier solutions, please tell me.
Kind regards David
