Tranferring music files to a free music download app without iTunes and in Linux

[blueblur121]

That's because you are running it as root. Not as you. Go to "/home/<your username here>/Desktop" to access your files.

If you're not sure how to get to "/home/" then click that hard drive icon. That will take you too your filesystem's base. From there you should see your home folder. Within it, is your user's folder.

Those file manager names...

GNU is actually pronounced "ganoo"

The more you know.

EDIT: Setro, did you find your files?

usually the ipod documents thing pops up
but it's not in nautilus running on root
basically nautlius running on root is not showing device names

would doing it through terminal help at all?

[blueblur121]

If running it as root doesn't help then that means it's not a permission problem. Try plugging your ipod into a different USB port? Idk really what the probelm is, but I'd ask around in the LM community. I never used Linux Mint so I really don't know where to get support there either. Sorry.

Alright, thanks for trying to help anyways :)
