SSH into iPad IOs System without Jailbreak

[Galilea]

Hi,

I am new to this and initially bought the R-Pi to act as a stepping stone where the iPad would send through SFTP some files recorded to the iPad. However, the SFTP Apps installed cannot gain access to the files. Does anyone know whether it is possible to use a Raspberry pi to SSH into an iPad's IOS system which has not been jailbroken?

Thank you very much for your help.

Pretty simple. If the iPad is running an SSH server, or you can install one, sure. If not, you can't SSH into it.

The standard way of doing it is with a jailbroken iPad, I suspect with the way Apple think, you aren't going to be able to do it without. Surely if you're wanting to get into the IO system, then its effectively jail breaking anyway ?

What pluggy said. When you are able to access files outside
your App , the next logical step would be to gain access to
settings/passwords of other apps or of the whole system.
Therefore it's disallowed it by default. A Jailbreak , of course ,
removes this restriction.

Do you have seen a file browser for plain iOS ? I haven't.

Well,there is DiskAid isn't there?

DiskAid doesn't need an special server App installed and
running , it seems ?

If you want to connect your iPhone via cable to the Pi ,
iFuse should be able to mount it.

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ifuse
