Yes, but the error was too many arguments. If the source directory only has
.mp3 files then you could try the recursive copy I believe the flag is a
capital R but I would verify that in the man page.

I think you've nailed the issue. Depending on how many files *.mp3 turns
into the cp command can become really really long. I checked and getconf
ARG_MAX returns 262144 or about 262K, which is quite a lot unless your
file list is really long. The find trick is slower but breaks the work

I believe you have given up on using Finder to quickly.
In Finder, Press command-1 for icon view. Use the tab key and Voiceover will
announce the name of the file selected.
Press command-2 for list view and arrow through the list. Again, Voiceover
announces the selection.

This isn't an issue with the stack really, it's an issue with the
argument list being to long. Try this:
find -name "*.mp3" -exec cp "{}" /foo/bar

Anytime you are copying something from your server to another server, use scp
command if you are in SSH. SCP stands for, "secure copy.

Someone asked:
"huh? i think i had a blonde moment there? that might work as well but
sfpt would be more secure than just ftp right?"
Yes and it works similar to ssh in doing a login. XB

Hi Anders,
You're not specific as to whether the copy is going between two computers or
simply between mounted volumes on the same computer. If on the same computer,
your command should work fine, as long as, like Jason mentioned, you've either
quoted out or back-slashed out the spaces. So...
huh? i think i had a blonde moment there… that might work as well but
sfpt would be more secure than just ftp right?

Now i want to copy a bunch of mp3-s or move them from one disk to another
with
mv or cp."
Use sftp to transfer files, or just ftp if it is between two of your own
computers.
There is a man page for both, I prefer sftp for it
well as i just said if he just use cp, over ssh, it would not work, as
a matter of fact he can beat at it till the cow comes home.
Of course i am taking for granted that he ***wanna*** move the stuff
from one computer too another, so scp that is .
just found this .

If you use backslashes to quote the spaces in the name of the destination
directory, does it give a better result?
It's possible there are too many arguments on the command line - OS X may have
a much more restrictive limit tha
hi, it is not cp or as you call it copy that you need but "scp" note
the quotes that i made round the word.
basically as i recall it it is a long time ago i used it you gotta
write something like this. scp *.extension,
root@ipadress/place/where.you.want.thefiles/
if you want more information as you
