How to transfer files

I have installed archlinux 2010.05 on VMware.
I will be using this system as a FTP server.
I don't know how to connect to this system from windows so that I can transfer the packages and install them.
SCP does'nt work might be because it is not installed / configured.
tried to mount windows share on the archlinux but failed
how can I transfer files from my windows system to the newly installed archlinux. ?

sftp clients are great if you are moving a couple files every once in a while.  but in my opinion, if this is going to be something that you are doing every day you should probably look into setting up a Samba share or maybe an sshfs file system. Avahi may also be relevant to your interests

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • How to transfer files from ipad to new computer

    I am trying to find out how to transfer files, (Music, Videos, Ect.) from my iPad to a another computer. I lost all my files on my computer and it won't let me recover my files from my iPad and save them on my new install.

    Honestly there is no real way unless these are items you have purchased from iTunes.  There is an option to Transfer Purchases from iPad but these are only going to be Apps, Music, Videos, etc. that you purchased and downloaded from the App Store/iTunes (you can also do the same by just opening up iTunes on your computer, going to iTunes Store, then going to Purchases, and downloading your purchases).
    If they are files that you haven't purchased through the App Store/iTunes then you won't be able to transfer those back to your computer.

  • How to transfer files from iBook to reader?

    How to transfer files from iBook to reader

    The first step is to export the PDF from iBooks to your computer (this cannot be one on your iPad or iPhone). Connect your iPad or iPhone to your syncing computer. Open iTunes. Select your device (how to do this depends on which version of iTunes you are running). Click on the Books tab at the top. In the current version of iTunes 11, I had to choose to view by PDFs. Then I could drag a PDF from the iTunes window to my Desktop.
    Then follow the instructions in this document to import the PDF(s) into Adobe Reader:

    Not so easy, I'm afraid. Easier if you just keep copies of your PDFs on your computer.

  • How to transfer files from 1 ipad to another

    how to transfer files from 1 ipad to another

    Depends what you are trying to transfer.
    Are you just trying to add content such as apps, music and photos?
    Or are these files that were created by such apps as pages and numbers?
    You can download content that was purchased in the itunes or app store by signing into same account.
    You can dowload any documents saved to icloud by signing into the same account.
    You can create a backup of the first ipad and restore the second from that backup.
    You can import or sync the content from the first ipad into itunes and then manually sync to the second.
    But this all depends on what you are actually trying to do.

  • How to transfer files from mac to ipad without using itunes

    how to transfer files from mac to ipad without using itunes ???
    as i want to use my ipad for official use as well...please suggest..

    well to be 100% technical, no you didn't but that aside, it good to know there are ways for people to transfer music into the default apps without iTunes, if they have a need.
    I tend to use 3rd party apps for documents, like your mentioned iExplorer etc, which are handy.
    I see from a search the two "apps" you mentioned are not iOS apps, which I had assumed, SyncPod and FreeSync are apps for your computer, that would explain their access to the default Music/Video apps.
    I had wondered how Apple had allowed iOS apps in the store that could get around the sandboxing in iOS of apps.

    The music sync is one way -computer to ipod.  The exception is itunes purchases.  File>Transfer Purchases.
    As everything came from your computer in the first place, it should still be there.

    You can use your external hard drive that is used to backup your important data to transfer the data from your PC to your Mac.
    If your Windows 7 PC is a laptop and you live near an Apple store, make an appointment at the Genius bar where they will help you transfer the data you want transferred from your PC to your MBP.

  • How to transfer files from a window PC to iPad3?

    How to transfer files (mainly PDF files) from a window PC to iPad3? I am a new user of iPad, please tell me the basic method.

    You will first need an app on the iPad that supports PDF files - unlike a 'normal' computer the iPad doesn't have a file system, and everything on it has to be associated with an app. Apps that support PDFs include free apps such as Apple's iBooks and the Adobe Reader app.
    For iBooks, you can add the PDFs to your computer's iTunes via File > Add To Library, and they should then go into the Books part of your iTunes library. You can then sync them to the iBooks app on your iPad (which you will need to download from the store and install on the iPad first) by connecting the iPad to your computer and selecting it on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, and then using the Books tab on the right-hand side to select and sync those PDFs to it.
    Other PDF apps quite often use the file sharing at the bottom of the device's Apps tab
    If you don't have a copy then you can download the iPad manual from here : http://support.apple.com/manuals/ipad/

  • How to transfer files like music from mac to ipad? tried it using mac but what happen was opposite!

    how to transfer files like music from mac to ipad? tried it few times but what happen was the opposite.

    If you want to sync your iTunes library on your Mac to your iPad ....
    Connect your iPad to the Mac and launch iTunes. Click on your iPad's name on the left side under the devices heading. Then click on the Music tab - and select the music that you want to transfer. Does your iTunes window look like this - with Sync Music checked and the playlists or albums checked as well like in the photo below?
    When you click on the apps tab do you have Sync Apps checked and all of the apps in the window below checked to sync as well?
    If you select all of the items under the different tabs in iTunes - music, apps, photos. etc. - when you sync - all of the selected content should sync over to the iPad.
