I'm using Linux Mint and get this bug on Mint 16 (based on Ubuntu 13.10), but not on Mint 15 (based on Ubuntu 13.04). Whereas Ubuntu itself shows the bug in both versions. So that may relates to either different kernel versions (Mint does not make the same kernel updates as Ubuntu), or to different versions of libimobiledevice in Mint 15, and Ubuntu 13.04 (if they are different at all).
In Mint 16 I installed the libimobiledevice version compiled by Iuri Diniz (see comment #58 in this thread). That package works great, solves the bug. Thanks, Iuri. There is only one remaining issue with the iPhone. I use to mount it not only in Linux, but also through a VirtualBox running Windows XP and iTunes inside a window in Linux Mint. It Mint 15 that is absolutely no problem thanks to USB filter configured in VirtualBox. The same configuration does not work with Mint 16, unfortunately. The filter is there, but the iPhone simply does not show up in the virtual machine. Has anyone an idea how to fix that? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libimobiledevice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1215098 Title: iPhone with iOS 7 does not work on Ubuntu Status in “libimobiledevice” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: ->*Please read this first before making a comment*<- If you think you are affected by this bug, and in order to ensure all the the different devices are indeed fix, please file a new report with your USB device plugged in via a terminal: ubuntu-bug linux Please do not make a "Me too!" comment as this is not helpful, and just spamming everyone subscribed to this report. Thank you. Devices running iOS 7 now have a USB Pair Trust prompt that appears when the device is plugged into a machine. This prompt reads "Trust This Computer? Your settings and data will be accessible from this computer when connected via USB or Wi-Fi. [Trust] [Don't Trust]" Repro: 1) Plug powered-on Apple device with iOS 7 into Ubuntu USB port Expected results: The device should pair with the Ubuntu machine when "Trust" is tapped. Actual results: When plugged into an Ubuntu machine, when the Trust button on the prompt is clicked, the iPhone buzzes twice, then repeats the prompt. This will repeat endlessly. On the Ubuntu machine, a dialog reading "The device "[name of device]" is locked. Enter the passcode on the device and click "Try again". [Cancel] [Try again]" is displayed. However, no opportunity to enter the passcode on the device is ever displayed. Clicking "Try again" only re-displays this dialog, endlessly.
