I'm not sure what you meant above (typos further obfuscated your meaning) but I can confirm iOS devices do NOT completely refuse to interact with Linux -- I can plug my iPhone 4S and iPhone 6S into my Stretch box and get some limited interoperability, including pulling down photos etc. I have never tried to run iTunes. In the past I successfully pulled a song off my phone that I put there ripping from a CD using iTunes, but I can't recall if I did that on Windows outside iTunes or from Linux. I suspect the latter, but am not sure. Anyway, not the case that you can't interact with it at all (but I'm not surprised iTunes is difficult to get working). Mark
