I have an iPhone 1 (3G or whatever it should be called)
I'm on Lubuntu 20.04 running in Virtualbox.
I have tried running iTunes under Windows7 (in Virtualbox), but iTunes doesn't detect a device.
I have tried running iTunes under wine (in Lubuntu 20.04), but iTunes doesn't detect a device.
Various articles (see end*) suggest libimobiledevice
, fuse
, libmuxd
, etc.
I created the mountpoint:sudo mkdir /media/iphone
I get the following:
~$ lsusbBus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hubBus 001 Device 003: ID 05ac:1292 Apple, Inc. iPhone 3GBus 001 Device 002: ID 80ee:0021 VirtualBox USB TabletBus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
$ dmesg | grep -i iphone[ 136.336274] usb 1-2: Product: iPhone[ 1260.165423] usb 1-2: Product: iPhone
$ sudo idevicepair pair[sudo] password for alan: No device found, is it plugged in?
$ sudo ifuse /media/iphoneNo device found, is it connected?If it is make sure that your user has permissions to access the raw usb device.If you're still having issues try unplugging the device and reconnecting it.
I have tried unplug/replug. I have tried rebooting the computer.
Same result.
ifuse
has an option -u, --udid UDID mount specific device by UDID
However, in the iPhone, Settings > General > About
only shows IMEI
and ICCID
.
Any suggestions much appreciated. Thank you.
