I have the third party app called file viewer (which is all i could find in cydia or installer), i put the file in /private/var/mobile/media/pdf through winscp and i see it through icommander, yet nothing shows up with the file viewer when I put in the path, any thoughts?
Firstly, you need to download and install the acrobat pdf application to your iphone from the 3rd party sharing community. Just click it on the acrobat icon on the iphone main board directory like opening the weather or calculator. You may also install other 3rd party file explorer app for the iphone to locate the file.
Try downloading the whole winSCP again. The username: root and password: dottie or you can try username: root and password: alpine. The first one always works for me.
/private/var/root/media/ does not exist? i only have
var/mobile/media
or
var/root/library
any suggestions?

every time i connect to winscp after about 30 secs it disconnects me and changes my ip address, do you know why this is happening?
also i cant find pdf viewer in installer only Books is it because i'm running installer 3.0?
any advise much appreciated thanks.
