Ahhhhhhhh..... Damn it feels good to be a Mac-man.

Cheers to the man who sat down and published this app. *thumbs up*

[m_alexandro121]

antoher question ... how do you export the music to your mac? (or pc with linux or pc{sucks}) sorry haha ... any one?

[erix920]

For me files were going in /private/var/root/Media/Downloads instead of /private/var/mobile/Media/Downloads and Finder doesn't like that location so it couldn't browse to it.

I did:

ln -s /private/var/mobile/Media/Downloads /private/var/root/Media/Downloads

and everything is good now.

Hopefully that helped someone.

To solve this issue, you will need to do some hacking.

To learn how to connect to your iPhone and or iPod touch see this post.

Log in to your iPhone or iPod touch with SSH and do the following:

1) check if you have “ioreg” binary in /usr/bin/ directory
2) If not download it from here and upload it to /usr/bin
3) chmod 755 /usr/bin/ioreg
4) run chown mobile:mobile /Applications/iSlsk.app/
5) run chown mobile:mobile /Applications/iSlsk.app/*
6) Download libncurses.5.dylib from here and upload only libncurses.5.dylib to /usr/lib

7) run chmod 777 /usr/lib/lib*

IF you still can’t get it to work i suggest waiting for the next release.

Thanks to the original creator Errrick who’s website you can consult here."

Select the song you want to play and click open with AVplayer.

WOW, this is surprisingly useful over edge with 17kb download speeds. Screw Apple and the iTunes music store, they didn't want you downloading music over edge but now we are

It isn't working for me either, but heres a workaround if you need it.

well, i installed the app and downloaded the app and had no luck finding them. then i tried the sym link mehtod above, still no luck. but then i went here and it showed up in finder and in the iSlsk downloads tab. i can play the music in AvPlayer, but u cant use the rest of the phone (go to another app) while using avplayer, so i wanted to import all my songs into the ipod app so i can play it in the background, but whenever i hit import all files, it comes up importing then after its done it pushes me back to springboard, from here i click ipod, to see my music isnt there. ive also tried respring and restarting my phone, but no luck. so can u help now that u know wat ive done?

I followed the same methods as you and am awaiting an update from errick. But for now, I believe this is the only way to do it. It seems to me that this app was developed for 1.1.1 because all of the folders are in root instead of the normal mobile now. This could cause complications for the program such as writing files to the mobile directory from the root without the proper permissions. So until he updates it to run from mobile, we will have to wait. I haven't checked, but I think the iTunes_Control folder was in root\media before and not mobile\media. This would explain why the files don't show up in the iPod. The program is telling itself to write files to a non-existent location. Just my thoughts, please correct me if I'm wrong.

oh, thats kinda of the response, in clarity, i was looking for well still avplayer is good enough since im bout to crash for the night, but maybe in the morning the update will be here, but thanx anyway

[m3thodandr3d]

Well earlier he said he was in work and thats why he didn't update it, but I'm sure he will have something for us either tomorrow or very soon after.

[jaredb03]

i don't know why this method isn't working for me? followed it word for word, and even uninstalled it and attempted it again.

[m3thodandr3d]

Make sure you replace all the right files and set permissions to folders that need them.

Did you create the Downloads folder in mobile/media/ ?
Then you have to give the folder execultable permission (755) so it can be written to from root. Your files will show up in the downloads folder, but won't import into the iPod.

[timliora]

errrick, please update this app before everyone looses their minds

[HighTymes]

There is a update out now for it. Not sure it is the fix for our problems, will find out in a sec.

Edit: Don't see what it fixed. Still have the error and problem with getting the next file to download once one finishes, have to exit and then open again to get next file to download. Trying a reboot and then maybe a uninstall and then reinstall.
