Hi

I try to create a music app for android and iOs devices. After a while I located the folder that should be the musicfolder of my iPod. "/private/var/mobile/Media/iTunes Control/Music"

I already get access to the "Media" folder, but it is empty.

File( File.getRootDirectories()[0]).resolvePath("/private/var/mobile/Media"); // file exists and it is a directory

I also copied music to my iPod and I can find the directoy with a desktop tool. But not with my app.

My alternative is to let the user copy all his music to the  File.documentsDirectory, but i would prefer to get direct access to the Itunes folder.

Anyone know a solution?

Thank you for help

cheers

Simon
