Android: adb pull command not working/not able to perform

Question

I am trying to copy a complete directory on my device(not rooted) to a directory in my mac say /Users/myUserName/Documents/Copied using the android Pull commands but every time I run the command, it gives me a message saying remote object does not exist.

I used

File file = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()+"/PB/").getAbsolutePath();

to get the absolute path of the directory in my device which comes out to be /storage/emulated/0/PB . Now I run the below command

./adb pull /storage/emulated/0/PB /Users/myUserName/Documents/Copied/

and I get following response

remote object '/storage/emulated/0/PB' does not exist

I don't know whats wrong with my approach and why is this not working even if the directory is there in my device.

Please guide.

Solution

You should use adb pull /sdcard/PB.
