Xubuntu 17.04 and iphone 6 transfer file methods--use Libimobiledevice to manipulate files like a U-disk

I need to preface the saying I ' M also new to Linux, but I ' ve got it working I think. The instructions you and I tried to follow aren ' t brilliantly written and is a bit out of date. I took all of the security settings off my device before trying this so you may want to do the same, e.g/no password or P Asscode.

Start by getting all of the required applications and packages.

Connect your device and test that it ' s being recognised using idevice.

ideviceinfo

Pair your device using Idevicepair.

idevicepair pair

Validate the pairing using Idevicepair

idevicepair validate

Create The mount point for your device, my device is an iPod Touch.

sudo mkdir /media/iPod-touch

Give All users access to the mount point.

sudo chmod 777 /media/iPod-touch

Mount the device using the newly created mount point.

ifuse /media/iPod-touch/

Now you should is able to access your device from your file manager!
