title: Access iOS filesystem without jailbreak?
body: <p>I would like to write/use an open source script that can access iOS filesystem (non-jailbroken). On a Jailbroken device, i use <code>ssh</code>/<code>scp</code> to access, <strong>transfer data from</strong> the device. Intent is to copy some part of the <strong>iOS filesystem</strong> (say <code>/var/mobile/Applications/xxx-xxxx/Documents</code>) to a Mac, from a <strong>non-Jailbroken device</strong>, <strong>using</strong> some <strong>script</strong>. I see that tools like iFunBox is able to do it. Would like to know it manages to do so.</p>
  
  <p>I came across <a href="http://theiphonewiki.com/wiki/MobileDevice_Library" rel="nofollow">mobiledevice.h</a> but could not really understand how to use it.</p>
  
  <p>Also, would prefer getting this done over USB.. for a jailbroken device, i use <a href="http://code.google.com/p/iphone-dataprotection/source/browse/usbmuxd-python-client/tcprelay.py?r=1eae3bba5cd2713a372f6eff64e2778ba9d864e4" rel="nofollow">tcprelay.py</a> for doing the <strong>usb tunneling</strong>. Is there something i can use for a non jailbroken device?</p>
