Iv jailbroken my iPhone, down loaded Cydia and downloaded a movie with I transmission.

iTunes does not allow file access to the phone.

Use iFile, connect it to Dropbox and copy the file over to Dropbox.

Use an app in your computer that can access root.

Any recommendations of what's a good app.

Iv tried ibrowse and iexplorer but I cant locate the movies iv downloaded.

iv tried dropbox but my internet speed is too slow and upload takes an age. is there a hard wire way to transfer these movies?

You have to find out the address of the folder for transmission and then find it.

Use now your pc to search for them.
If you see the file in ifile then You can just move it to whatever folder or look the exact address on your pc as well.
 
When I download movies with moviebox, etc... I use ifile and just move the movie file to camera roll. Easy to copy and paste them to the computer then!

Illegal movies download discussions are not to be had here so this will be my last post in this thread.
If it shows in the camera roll then the movie is in mp4, not mkv, etc. You could use another universal app container and do similar I guess.

Did you get moviebox on Cydia?

I tried saving a movie to camera roll but it did show up in iTunes when I sync it.

Yeah, I got it from cydia. I've never tried to sync a downloaded movie with iTunes. If you have a pc, just open the camera roll as you would a hard drive.. You will see the movie. I just drag it to my pc and it works fine. It's not quite as easy with my Macbook though.

I'm not on Mac, windows10
 
I can only find one app with any of this software and that's Dropbox, how do I get it to recognise Ifile and the others

Not really much differences, just another file explorer.
Are you still having problems locating the particular files at the location they are saved?

ya cant seem to access app, the only one I can access is drop box. when I search using location nothing come up

From what I can find out ifunbox is blocked for viewing apps by ios 8.3. thought jailbreak would sort it but no.

what can I do to solve this problem?

You have openssh installed right?
Where is the location of the file you're trying to copy?
I used to use winscp for Windows. It's an ftp explorer and very simple to use.
open WinSCP and type your IP address in Host name, you should fill root in the user field and alpine in the password field.

Not sure what I did but it was along those lines and Iv managed to transfer all movies.

How do you delete files from I transmission. Can't seem to delete them.
