Step 2Lets peruse the iPod
(Picture 1)
Open Terminal again and type "cd ~"
this command just changes the current directory to your home directory.
(Picture 2)
now we'll go a little deeper into the hard drive using the "cd .." command a couple times while listing the files using the "ls" command each time to keep looking for that iPod.
(Picture 3)
All external and internal hard disks are in the "Volumes" directory so lets get in there by typing "cd Volumes" and then listing the contents of the directory again. Your iPod's name should show up as one of the directories. Mine is called JACK'S IPOD. In order to get in all we have to do is... you guessed it type "cd "ipodname"" and we're in!!!
NOTE:
If your iPod's name has spaces or apostrophes like mine, it may be easier just to type the first couple letters and then hit tab. In Terminal, tab is an "auto-complete" button and guesses the correct answer. Very useful when you don't know Unix syntax.
