What do you mean it didn't help?
There is a more or less simple way to do this, half the work has been done for you. Just fiddle the above till it works.Code:find . -name "*.jpg" -print0 | xargs -0 -I {} cp {} /media/mmc1
Read up about find, xargs, cp, what all the flags do etc.
Must try harder FFS!

Seems from what vi_ and jedi have said, you've posted about this already. That is _not_ good behaviour. If you don't get the help you want from the question you ask, re-phrase it. If you've been waiting a while, by all means bump the thread. The nature of the problem will determine the urgency e.g. device still in reboot loop after taking the battery out and putting back in, as well as expecting a call about a new job - ok, repost in an hour. But don't start a new thread just because you didn't get a reply. The only caviat might be that there are occasions where you will post at the end of an old/dead thread and get a lacklustre response, in these cases starting a new thread might be more appropriate because you can ask the question more precisely to your needs. Whatever you do: Use TMO with care: it's fragile.
Not sure it's wise to reward this sort of thing but publishing your findings will probably help others ... lets see what can be done:
What version of busy box are you running?
What are you trying to execute with 'exec'?
Yeah about busy box you'll find out in my earlier thread

Busybox doesn't work with -exec when you type in x-term so what I must do to get -exec working.. please help guys.. Can't get command done
Either
a) install findutils-gnu or
b) install busybox-power
Both of those packages will provide you with a find binary that supports -exec. If you go with findutils-gnu: make sure to use /usr/bin/gnu/find instead of /bin/find.

Code:
find /home/user/ -name "*.jpg" -print | while read this; do cp $this /media/mmc1/; done

You've run of 'disk' space - it could well be because you've messed up with the various commands you've been given and have ended up duplicating files instead of moving them to your SD card. If you stick with one of the other threads, we might be able to work out what you're doing wrong.
Since you're having so many issues with xterm, why not stick to the first response you got on the first thread you created: Use the built-in file manager?

If you're trying to put them in the root folder of the MicroSD, you'll only be able to store something like 100 files due to limitations of the VFAT/FAT32 filesystem.
As a workaround, create a folder called Pictures on your microsd, and put everything inside that folder.
You might have to temporarily move something away from MicroSD before you can create the folder.

You mean the find command provided by busybox does not support the -exec parameter. This has already been explained and more than one work-around already provided.
