NAME

       jmptfs - FUSE based filesystem for accessing MTP devices

SYNOPSIS

       jmtpfs [options] MOUNTPOINT

DESCRIPTION

       jmtpfs  is a FUSE and libmtp based filesystem for accessing MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) devices. It was
       specifically designed for exchaning files between Linux (and Mac OS X) systems and newer Android  devices
       that support MTP but not USB Mass Storage.

       The  goal  is  to  create  a well-behaved filesystem, allowing tools like find(1) and rsync(1) to work as
       expected. MTP file types are set automatically based on file type detection using  libmagic(3).   Setting
       the  file  type  is necessary for some Android applications, like Gallery, to be able to find and use the
       files uploaded to the device.

USAGE

       For regular use, simply specifying a MOUNTPOINT will have the first available MTP  device  mounted  under
       it. Mounted devices should be unmounted using

              fusermount -u MOUNTPOINT

       (see fusermount(1) for more details).

       Note:  most  (if  not all) Android phones have to be unlocked when first accessed over MTP; if you get an
       input/output error on the mountpoint, unlock the phone and retry.

OPTIONS

       jmtpfs accepts the following options:

       -h     Show summary of options.

       -V, --version
              Show the program version.

       -l, --listDevices
              List all available MTP devices.

       -device=<busnum>,<devnum>
              Specify the device to mount. If unspecified, the first device found is used.

       In addition to these options, all options supported by fuse(8) are available.  See  jmtpfs  -h  for  more
       information.
