Heh heh heh... is this the same Jolly Roger who vehemently (and viciously!)
repeatedly admonished the Windows, Android and Linux newsgroups that he
personally and easily copies files bidirectionally all day with iTunes?
And, specifically, that he backs up his IPAs all the time with iTunes.
Yes. iTunes.
Hmmm...
Since we are "ignorant" about "all things Apple", let's ask JR a question.
Q: How does Jolly Roger back up his iOS IPAs using Windows iTunes?
A: Answer: He doesn't. He lied.
Sure, iTunes of yesteryear used to download a *current* IPA from the App
Store onto the desktop PC, but even then, that IPA is not likely to be the
version of the app that was on Jolly Roger's iOS device. That app might not
even exist anymore on hte Apple App Store. Yet, Jolly Roger says he backs
it up nonetheless. How could that be? Hmmm... maybe Jolly Roger is a liar?
Big deal.
A well-known Apple troll turns out to be... of all things... a liar.
But worse...
Much worse...
Much much worse... in fact...
That iTunes of yesteryear is known to be chock full of zero-day exploits.
Fancy that.
Yet, we don't know anything about "all things apple" Jolly Roger claims.
--
Don't even get me started on Jolly Roger's claims he uses Files:SMB to copy
files bidirectionally between Linux & Android (which are in the real
world).

Look Jolly Roger, you can get away with your Apple trolling crap only on Apple newsgroups where people don't know how Apple devices work, but not here. We know exactly how Apple does things, Jolly Roger. You do not. The fact is... you lied. It's easy to prove you lied. David Empson, many years ago told you that the old (now deprecated) Windows iTunes version 12.6.3 (the last iTunes before iTunes version 12.7) *restored* IPA files through the synchronization process with iOS devices but it could NEVER *obtain* that IPA off the iOS device. Not for the factory apps. And not for the user-installed apps. The reason is the same reason it would be for Windows if you deleted your installer. The installer is no longer on the device. It's in the App Store. When you download an app off the App Store, the app's IPA is deleted after the installation process completes. There's no reason for iOS to save it. Hence, it's obvious you lied, Jolly Roger. There's no IPA on the iOS device to back up. Even that old deprecated iTunes got the IPA off the App Store, Jolly Roger. Not off the iOS device.

At this point, the superficial nature of your investigations is a given 1. The transfer is BOTH ways if you have a Windows folder shared with read/write permissions. 2. You never even SEE the iPhone drive in Windows Explorer (if you use capital letters, that indicates a proper name, and the file manager for Windows is called "Explorer") It works. Perfectly. <https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-xDHFCEJvL9LMM42wWxJGx89nmyH4cFL/view?usp=share_link>

While the Files app eventually added an SMB client, the real problem to solve if we ever want Apple devices to work in the real world is to be able to transfer files bidirectionally between iOS & Android/Linux. While setting up an SMB server on Linux isn't all that difficult, since most Linux desktop owners will also have root access, it won't be that simple to set up an SMB server on Android (since most are not rooted). Hence, the real problem with Files:SMB is that it doesn't work in the real world, whereas, the suggestion of using LocalSend does work in the real world. That, in a nutshell, is the fundamental difference between the subterranean caverns of the underground Apple "ecosystem" and the real world above it.

How much do you want to be that Files in iOS will accept the standard URL scheme of appending a port number to an IP address with a colon? :-)

Since phones don't typically have a built-in SMB SERVER, there is nothing for an SMB CLIENT to connect to. So iOS <> Android using SMB is not going to work (either direction) until one or the other has an SMB SERVER installed. Both are CLIENTS. Thus, connecting the Files app (SMB CLIENT) to a Windows SMB SERVER or a MacOS SMB SERVER or a Linux SMB SERVER works fine. But you can't connect Windows or MacOS or Linux to a phone. The Client contacts the Server. The Server authenticates the Client. The Client then has whatever access permissions the Server grants. Client/Server. Networking 101, folks. Think of extension power cords and male/female connectors. If you have 2 male (or 2 female) connectors, no connection can be made. 2 clients can't connect and neither can 2 servers. But Windows and Unix and Linux are both Clients AND Servers. You can connect to other servers with Windows/Linux/Unix AND you can receive Client connections. I assume that no one ever considered a phone needing to be a server. As long as it can connect TO servers, there is no need for an SMB server on a phone. Thus, the bottom line is simple. The Files app on iOS works fine. It is VERY EASY to "Copy a photo from Windows to iOS without needing Internet servers". And 2 phone users are not going worry about any of this. One will simply text the photo to the other. Without needing to be on the same wifi network. Without needing to be in the same country. That's Networking 201.

Frank Slootweg and I discussed this years ago and the problem with Android running an SMB server is the ports are 139 (SMB over NetBIOS) and 445 (SMB directly over TCP/IP) both of which are below 1024 and hence impossible on a non-rooted Android. Since 139 is deprecated, let's just talk about 445. It's my understanding non jailbroken iOS has the exact same restrictions. Windows expects SMB to be on port 445. Yet, you are correct that "SMB Server" apps are advertised on both the Android & iOS App Stores... so it behooves us to understand how they work. Android: "File Manager +": This app, among its many file management features, advertises the ability to create an SMB server. "Cx File Explorer": Similar to "File Manager +", this app also offers SMB server functionality. "FileBrowser Professional": This app is often mentioned for its file sharing capabilities, including SMB. It's a paid app, and its developers claim it offers robust SMB support. "FE File Explorer": This app also advertises SMB server capabilities. Hence the paradox: A. Neither iOS nor Android can run a server on port 445. B. Yet, these apps "advertise" SMB-server functionality. Hmmm... what port do they run on?

That's not an iOS limitation, though. 😉 iOS SMB transfers are indeed bi-directional by nature.

And with such an app, iOS does indeed have a SMB service to which clients can connect. One such app, LAN drive SAMBA Server Client, has already been mentioned here. It was originally released seven years ago. And there are others. > So iOS <> Android using SMB is not going to work (either direction) until one > or the other has an SMB SERVER installed.

The Apple trolls are using this method as a way to try to claim Apple devices can't do simple file sharing. And they've been proven wrong once again by those of us who know better. -- E-mail sent to this address may be devoured by my ravenous SPAM filter. I often ignore posts from Google.

Yup. Turn on file sharing on your Windows PC on the same LAN as your iOS device (Control Panel: Network & Sharing Center) and turn on Sharing for some folder. Make sure you have a password on your user account (local or Microsoft cloud-based). Get the IP address of your Windows PC. Launch the Files app on your iOS device and from the ellipsis in the top right, choose "Connect to Server" and enter the IP address of your PC. When prompted, enter your PC user ID and password. You're now connected to the server, and you can go straight into the sharing interface in the Photos app to "Export Unmodified Original" and navigate to that connected server. Done.
