Transfer Files between iPhone, iPod and Computer

It is only natural that some users use their Apple iPhone or iPod Touch as a portable device that stores files. The disk space of the Apple devices are definitely large enough to provide room for some additional files. Not necessarily pictures, music or other multimedia files but maybe documents or executable files that are essential to the user.

Disk Aid can transfer files between a computer running Windows or Mac OSX and an iPhone or iPod Touch. My older iPod Nano was not recognized by the software which means that it is most likely only working with the two devices mentioned above. A supported device is recognized automatically by the application. It reminds the user to install iTunes if that software is not installed on the local computer.

The application supported the usual file operations like copying files from and to the iPhone or iPod Touch, creating folders, deleting files, renaming and even copying folders with their contents.

No jailbreak is needed to use Disk Aid and the supported firmwares are 1.1.1 to 1.1.4. Great software if you have an iPhone or iPod Touch.

    Thank you for the post. Disk Aid seems like a very useful app. I am considering getting an iPhone, but I need to be able to transfer files from my macbook to the iPhone (disk aid) and then use the iPhone and a web based email account to email the file elsewhere. Can the iPhone browse the file system created on the iPhone and attach files to web based email?

    Why not you can easily transfer your word or excel files from your computer to your iPhone as well as you can also transfer your music and videos into your iPhone. You can use iPhone data transfer application to send data into iPhone.
