Hi, Wayne--

I’m not sure I understand. Sorry, but what’s a high-bit quote? In any case,
it’s now working much better, so thank you :)

But I’m now getting a lot of these:

localhost:volumes jeffrey$ /usr/local/bin/rsync -avv --protect-args 'Jeffrey
Ellis’s iPhone (Root)'/ 'Macintosh HD'/Users/jeffrey/Downloads/iphone_backup
sending incremental file list
rsync: readdir("/Volumes/Jeffrey Ellis?\#200\#231s iPhone
(Root)/Applications/AdSheet.app/CodeResources"): No such file or directory
(2)
rsync: readdir("/Volumes/Jeffrey Ellis?\#200\#231s iPhone
(Root)/Applications/AppStore.app/CodeResources"): No such file or directory
(2)
rsync: readdir("/Volumes/Jeffrey Ellis?\#200\#231s iPhone
(Root)/Applications/Calculator.app/CodeResources"): No such file or
directory (2)
rsync: readdir("/Volumes/Jeffrey Ellis?\#200\#231s iPhone
(Root)/Applications/Compass.app/CodeResources"): No such file or directory

rsync: readdir("/Volumes/Jeffrey Ellis?\#200\#231s iPhone
(Root)/Applications/Contacts.app/CodeResources"): No such file or directory

rsync: readdir("/Volumes/Jeffrey Ellis?\#200\#231s iPhone
(Root)/Applications/Cydia.app/Modes/NEW_INSTALL.png"): No such file or
directory (2)
rsync: readdir("/Volumes/Jeffrey Ellis?\#200\#231s iPhone
(Root)/Applications/DemoApp.app/CodeResources"): No such file or directory
(2)
rsync: readdir("/Volumes/Jeffrey Ellis?\#200\#231s iPhone
(Root)/Applications/FieldTest.app/CodeResources"): No such file or directory
(2)
delta-transmission disabled for local transfer or --whole-file

But mostly, the files are copying normally. Maybe the above is about 10%,
but they still seem weird.

Also, doesn’t the  second ‘ (in Ellis’s) disrupt the whole thing, or need to
be escaped somehow?

Best,
J.
