Help finding files saved using an iphone app

Morning all,
i am really struggling to find a file which was generated using an app on my iphone.
i have been capturing my expenses using an iphone app, and then the report is extracted it saves it at the following location:
/var/mobile/Applications/.../Documents/MyExpenses.csv
i have tried to find these files on my phone and can not - support tells me to use iTunes to find them - when i open itunes the only things i can find are apps and music - no files at all.
Please would someone explain to this novice where i can find these files - stumped and frustrated
many thanks
M

Dan,
Look in the /utilities directory of the main APEX ZIP file.
Thanks,

Is there a capability to save/export the time capsule settings file when using the iphone/ipad airport utility. the "file" button does not exist on the latest airport utility app.

is there a capability to save/export the new airport 2TB time capsule settings file when using the iphone/ipad airport utility. set-up wasn't a problem but the "file" button does not exist on the latest airport utility app v6.3 to save the configuration file.

the "file" button does not exist on the latest airport utility app v6.3 to save the configuration file.
Sounds like you are a bit confused with version numbers.
Latest AirPort Utility version for the iPhone / iPad is 1.3.3. There is no option or capability to export/import settings on the iOS version(s) of AirPort Utility.....although you could take a series of screen shots and save them for future reference.
AirPort Utility 6.3.x is found on a Mac.....not on iPhone / iPad. Export and Import options are found under the File menu in 6.3.x.

If they are saved on your iPad, they are as safe as anything else.

I have a macbook white (Snow leopard), just started using mac, Is there anyway we can use the Iphone Apps( downloaded from ITune) on Mac

I have a macbook white (Snow leopard), just started using mac, Is there anyway we can use the Iphone Apps( downloaded from ITune) on Mac, they are getting saved in Mobile applications and have ipa extension

The operating systems for iOS devices and for Macs are completely different. Applications written for iOS won't run on a Mac no matter what fiddles you try with it. You can sometime extract data by opening the package, but it still won't do you any good. Look in the Mac App Store in your Applications folder to see if there are Mac versions or similar programs (iTunes login required).

Do I use the iphone apps for itouch?

I don't see a listing for the itouch in the apps store. Should I use the iphone apps? I have a 4th generation itouch. This has been VERY confusing any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Yes, go to the iPhone tab. The description of each app in the app store say what devices they work on. Therefore, you have to check since not all iPhone apps work on the iPod.

Help!!! Need to find the name of an iPhone app.

I had to replace my iPhone, and it was not backed up. I am trying to find the name of a favorite app that had magazines such as people, hotel searches, etc. The icon was red.

If you are using the Same Apple ID as vefore, look in the Purchased tab in the App Store for your previous purchases it will most likely be there.

Restore time machine fails - files in use by another app

Situation: I am trying to get my files off my broken LaCie external drive(no longer mounts, unable to be fixed in Disk Utility) .
This is what I did:
a. I select all the files in Time machine.
b. I click restore, they "come forward".
c. A window comes up saying "blank" (meaning the first file in the list) cannot be opened because it is in use by another app.
d. I tried selecting just one file vice all the files, same thing.
It is a major tease that I can see the files, but are they just ghosts?!
Additional info: I am scanning with Disk Drill for the last hour, NOTHING found on the drive. How could almost 350gb of files disappear? Now it says no recoverable data found.
Disk Utility lists the drive, but it is greyed out and therefore unable to be fixed in any way).
Also, Disk Warrior also says the disk is in use (by what?), and cannot continue to rebuild the drive. Error codes given: 2153 and 4903.
I do believe I am hosed.
Thanks

I'm staring to suspect that it might be some underlying library that firefox uses that's caused it. I just tried 3.0.12 and that's behaving bizzarley too.
With that I get some console output at least, not sure if it's much help.
(firefox-bin:2368): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_x11_xatom_to_atom_for_display: assertion `xatom != None' failed

How do I find files saved to drive

I Am relatively new to i pad and not a big user of files, but some email attachments I receive from fri ends get 'saved to drive, when i Try to open them. I seem to have iCloud on in my settings, all switched to on, but how do I actually get into the app to see my 'files'? Thanks

Are you seeing something like this:
If so, that means you are using the Gmail App, and what its doing is saving the attachments to Google Drive. In which case you would need the Google Drive App to view the saved files there.
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/google-drive-free-online-storage/id507874739?mt= 8
FYI: This is just an interaction between Google Apps and services. It has nothing to do with iCloud. or iCloud Drive.

IPod cannot be updated/restored/ejected--files in use by another app

Since I downloaded iTunes7, I cannot update, restore, or eject my iPod from iTunes. I get the error "<iPod name> cannot be updated(restored, ejected) because it contains files in use by another application." I'm still able to sync music and tv shows with the old iPod software, but not movies. I eject it using the Safely Remove Hardware icon in my system tray, or from My Computer. I've tried disabling security programs and peripherals, and even sifting through the processes in Task Manager. I had no trouble ejecting prior to iTunes 7/7.0.1.
And yes, I've done the R's I'm able to do (Restore is not an option due to the nature of the error).

Hi again, Corey!
In regard to "recovery mode" message, you'll most likely just need to restore your iPod. For more details, read here -> Restoring your iPod
If this message persists after restoring your iPod, try assigning your iPod a different drive letter; see these steps below:
Log off of any other users on your computer.
1 - Don’t plug in your iPod yet.
2 - Go to "START -> Control Panel -> Admin Tools (if you don't see this, click on "classic view" button on the left panel) -> Computer Management."
3 - Click on the "Disk Management" button in the left panel area.
4 - Now, with "Computer Management" and Control Panel windows opened, reset your iPod, and connect it.
5 - Right-click on your iPod's listing there (after a few moments when it gets recognized in this drive window), and click on "Change Drive letter and Paths". Then the "Change..." button.
Here's what it should look like:
Assign your iPod the letter "M" "N", "O" or the like (further along in the alphabet).
For more details, see this article:
Windows confuses iPod with network device / Changing drive letter
I hope this helps you!

HT3231 how to find file after using migration

how to find files after migration has finished

If you don't have any file you need in your old account, open System Preferences > Users and Groups and delete the old user. If not, I recommend you to migrate your files of your old account to the new one using Shared folder or an USB drive

wifi is wifi, and business hub means very little.. this is area for time capsule discussion.. but the standard measures apply.
1. Set wireless name (SSID) to a name that is short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric. Eg your Business Hub call wireless BH. There is no need for names longer than that.
2. Set wireless channel for 2.4ghz to 11 or 6 or 1. Please test in that order. In Eurozone you can add 13 or use it instead of 11. They are the only 3 non-overlapping channels.
3. Use no security to test.. of course this is unsafe long term.. so this is to test for a few minutes only.
The only security that should be used with N wireless is WPA2 TKIP-AES .. it can be named several different things ie in Apple routers it is WPA2 personal. Use a passkey of 10-20 characters.. more if you are paranoid, mix of upper and lower case + numerics.. so pure alphanumeric.
4. If it fails set the mode to G wireless. It is more consistent standard.
If it still fails buy an Apple router and use that as WAP.

Hello jimmy ii
The only option is to contact that person to have them remove Activation Lock from the iPhone. They can do it online and do not have to come to you. Check out the article below for more information.

Help! File in use problem when using Swing app

Hi. I got a program that is pretty much a JFileChooser that prints to standard output the path of the file that I've chosen. If I invoke the DOS command:
java JFileChooserDemo, I will get the following as expected from the program:
"You chose a file named: C:\MyJava\Book.xls".
But if I invoke the following DOS command:
java JFileChooserDemo > output.txt, the file "output.txt" contains the following:
"GetModuleHandleA succeed
LoadLibrary returns baaa0000
You chose a file named: C:\MyJava\Book.xls"
So, if I try to open the file or try to modify "output.txt", I get an error message stating that the file is in use.
What's weird is that, I THINK if I have a program that DOES'NT use Swing or anything GUI-related and prints to standard output with the DOS "> outfile" command, I won't get this problem. So in other words, I can duplicate this problem with a sample Swing application that prints to standard output. Try it yourself.
In my original program, it does have an event handler that closes the JFileChooser and its container and exits the system via "System.exit(0);", but for some reason, something still has "locked" the output.txt file. I even did the ctr+alt+del and can't find anything that would lock the output.txt file. What's even weirder is that if I run the application again, but output to a different file like "output2.txt", this file is not locked, but the "output.txt" file still is. output2.txt also don't have contain the
"GetModuleHandleA succeed
LoadLibrary returns baaa0000" message.
The only way I know of that would "unlock" output.txt is to re-boot my computer.
So it seems I have to modify my program somehow because it appears the OS still thinks output.txt file is still in use.
Someone may think why would I invoke the java interpreter with the DOS "> outfile" command. Well, the reason being, I got a different version of the program that executes a query and I want it to create a delimited text file that contains the resultset of the query, so that I can then import it to Access, Excel, or whatever. But, because of this problem, I can't modify the query result without having to either run the application again and created another file name with the same result or re-boot. Of course, this would be silly.
Any help in how I can modify my program or any GUI-program so that if I invoke the DOS "> outfile" command, the outfile won't be "locked" would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. If you want my program, you can e-mail me or run any sample program from the Swing Tutorial that prints to standard output and just add the " > outfile" to the java interpreter command.

Getting xml file from web for iPhone App

Im having an app get an xml file from the web and process it. Ive got the processing part down, ive even got the downloading part done. Problem is so far ive only downloaded a generic xml file hardcoded into the app. I need the user to input a value of the file to get. As a matter of fact, ive been thinking that i may even use the UniqueIdentifier for the iphone to make the file unique enough without the hassle of having to search thru user/pass combinations. So i have the webform to have users enter the values and then their iphones unique ID. But i need to have the user get the unique ID from their phone. Unfortunately ive been able to find this:
UIDevice *device = [UIDevice currentDevice];
NSString *uniqueIdentifier = [device uniqueIdentifier];
[device release];
NSLog(@"Device GUID:%@", uniqueIdentifier);
but this number does not show up on the iPhone UserInterface, so my user would have no way of knowing what his/her uniqueIdentifier is
So my question is 2-fold:
1. If UniqueIdentifier is the best way to go, how do i have my users visualize their UniqueIdentifier in order to give their xml file that name?
2. If the user/pass is the best way to go, id have to store user, pass and file name in a database online and have the user create an account which would generate a unique idFilename for him/her and that way fetch the file.

Hi Marcio -
I suspect I don't understand your requirements, so if my reply is irrelevant, please tell us a little more about what you're trying to do.

I'm not sure what you mean by visualize. If you want the user to see the device id, why not populate a label or text field with it? Otherwise, why not just insert the id into the request yourself? E.g.:
UIDevice *device = [UIDevice currentDevice];
NSString *uniqueIdentifier = [device uniqueIdentifier];
// [device release]; <-- do not release object you don't own
NSLog(@"Device GUID:%@", uniqueIdentifier);
textField1.text = uniqueIdentifier; // if we think the user wants to see this
[self addIdToRequest:uniqueIdentifier]; // implementation is an exercise for the student
2. If the user/pass is the best way to go, id have to store user, pass and file name in a database online and have the user create an account which would generate a unique idFilename for him/her and that way fetch the file.
This is up to you. If the download isn't confidential info, it might be ok to rely on the device id. Otherwise you clearly put the owner's info at risk in case someone else operates the device.
Im having an app get an xml file from the web and process it.
I'm not sure why you included this info about the downloaded data format, and that's one reason I'm not sure I understand the problem. But I hope the above will help you see what needs to be clarified.
