Ubuntu :: IPod Touch 4G?

Nov 12, 2010

I've been trying desperately to try to sync my iPod to play songs from it and to add songs to it. I've tried Rhythmbox, Amarok, and iTunes through Wine, but none of them will even acknowledge that a device has been connected. When I connect my iPod while in Rhythmbox, a device called "Unknown Device" pops up for just a second, then disappears. This computer is running only Ubuntu now so I'm pretty desperate to find a way to be able to sync my iPod.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Get Ipod Touch Working With The Gtkpod Ipod Manager?

Jan 13, 2010

Its a dell e510 with about a gig of ram. I'm struggling to get my ipod touch working with the gtkpod ipod manager. At this point my ipod shows on my desktop when i connect it via usb. I cannot set up the repository for it in gtkpod because i dont know the location its mounting to. if its mounting at all. so my question is. how can i tell where my ipod is being mounted? I dont have a clue what to look for in the terminal results for "df -a"

But this is what i get:

Code:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1 152357444 65577992 79040140 46% /
proc 0 0 0 - /proc
none 0 0 0 - /sys

[Code]...

Edit : Itouch = first generation 8gb Edit 2: I would like to create a sticky thread that helps new users answer questions about ipods. Will a moderator please let me know what i should include in their opinion? ex. using wine to run itunes, gtkpod and how to set it up, using mm players like banshee and songbird... what version of ubuntu works best with the ipods.

Ubuntu :: 9.10 Does Not Recognize IPod Touch?

Jul 24, 2010

I recently installed Ubuntu after xp went off its last leg and couldn't start up (I deleted all previous files in the installation). It's a very good program and I have no problem installing new programs

The problem is that it will not recognize any iPod connected to it. ( not only mine but family as well)

Now when I say it doesn't recognize, I mean that programs like Banshee, Rhythmbox, and Hipo fail to recognize that an iPod is connected but my iPod can charge perfectly fine so I know that it isn't an issue with the cord.

Ubuntu :: Ipod Touch 3rd Gen Won't Mount In 10.04?

Jan 28, 2011

I have a 3rd gen 32g ipod touch with the latest firmware and restored to factory default settings. When I plug in the device via USB it will not mount. after plugging in the ipod my dmesg is as follows:

Code:
[ 399.300032] usb 2-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 5
[ 399.455746] usb 2-1: configuration #1 chosen from 3 choices

And lsusb shows the device as:

Code:
Bus 002 Device 005: ID 05ac:1299 Apple, Inc.

The OS is obviously recognizing the device as an Apple product, but beyond that I don't know.

The device will connect fine with windows machines. I have not tried using it with Wine + itunes as I know that itunes under wine is buggy at best.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: IPod Touch 4th Gen With OS 4.1

Feb 22, 2011

I know there are a few threads on this already, but I don't think they apply to this type model specifically. This link says that the libgpod is not yet current with the hardware.

It also says that it works with iPod Touch 4G's with a lower OS (ex. 4.0.1). Mine came with 4.1, but even after jailbreaking, I cannot get it to sync music.

If I were to downgrade the OS (is this even advisable for this model), would I then be able to sync music in Ubuntu?

Ubuntu :: Does New 64Gb IPod Touch Work With On 10.04

Apr 14, 2010

I just acquired a shiny new 64Gb iPod Touch and for the life of me I can't get it working in either Amarok or Banshee at all and it doesn't automatically mount as it is supposed to on 10.04 Beta 1 or 2

lsusb shows it's there and after following this thread I could get it mounted and see the directory structure.

[URL]

But it doesn't show up in Banshee or Amarok at all.

Is it just because it's new and might have a quirk? Or could it be something simple I have missed? I'm not a total noob but still learning

Ubuntu Multimedia :: 1st Gen IPod Touch Won't Mount

Aug 11, 2010

I'm running (K)ubuntu 10.04 side-by-side with Windows 7 (Wubi install) and have been having trouble from the word go trying to get my ipod working with it. I've already managed to jailbreak it with Spirit in Windows in hopes that it would get the iPod libs to work but to no avail. I've downloaded just about every result I could find by searching for "ipod" in Synaptic as well as a few other libraries that I've found while searching the forums for a solution to my problem. I have both Banshee and RhythmBox on my machine and Bash can detect the device but it won't mount and to the best of my knowledge not a single program can see anything other than a folder labeled "iPod" in my "media" drive and even this only recently occurred. For what it's worth, I've downloaded the ipod-convenience package and this is the code that resulted when I tried to mount via Konsole:

[code]...

this is after I've added myself to the 'fuse' group and rebooted the computer.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: 10.04 Does Not Sync IPod Touch?

Oct 9, 2010

I just got a 4th generation iPod Touch today. I plug it in to my laptop (Ubuntu 10.04), it recognizes it as a photo storage but it will not recognize it in Rhythmbox or Banshee. Therefore I cannot get any files on to it. Although when I plug it in and open Rhythmbox it makes a little noise.

I have tried installing libimobiledevice, ifuse and tried with gtkpod (basically I've read a lot of stuff about getting it to work) all to no avail. I also plugged it into Windows Vista to get it started as well as transferred a song from iTunes 10 to it, and it still doesn't do much when on my laptop.

It seems to not be mounted in the proper place for gtkpod and no fixes seemed to work. For using ifuse it does not seem to recognize that it is plugged in. I have updated all the libimobiledevice packages and still nothing.

Just got a new iPod Touch, but unfortunately Rhythmbox isn't reading it. The iPod shows up on the desktop, so I know it's reading it, but it shows up as a camera, which I assume is the problem. Is there a way I can force rhythmbox to read it?I'm using ubuntu 10.04, by the way.

Ubuntu :: Unable To Automout (two) IPod Touch

Jan 19, 2011

My two sons got an iPod Touch (gen 3) each for Christmas. Tired of messing with iTunes in XP, I looked at my Ubuntu 10.04 installation, including Rhythmbox, for manual move of music to and from library. It's only 8GB on the iPods, but the OS is upgraded to 4.2.1.

Updating with latest versien 1.04 of libimobiledevice etc, I still troubled a long time trying to get Ubuntu automount one of them. I tried switching between two original cables, tried all usb ports, with no .At last I tried the other iPod (I had just tried one of them at this time), and Whow!, automount on first try!! Rhythmbox shows the IPod as well.The other iPod will still not mount, even with same cable, on same usb-port, and as far as I can find out, the same settings inside the iPod. lsusb command shows both items when plugged in, and charging is working.

I have recently purchased an ipod touch 4g and i am trying to sync it with my laptop running on slackware 13.1. So i looked around these links [URL]... and downloaded

libimobiledevice-1.0.4.tar.bz2

No 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 am using root account while doing this. when i do a lsusb | grep Apple it shows

Ubuntu :: Ipod Touch (4.2.1) Won't Mount / Last Resort

Apr 9, 2011

First, I know this topic has been killed to death but I have been reading other posts from other people that have had similar problems and nothing seems to be working.I am using Ubuntu 10.04 and I have installed the libimobile libraries and ifuse ect. I have turned off my screen lock pw and have tried multiple ports. lsusb lists it so I know that it knows it's there. Any other suggestions? I thought it was supposed to work "out of the box"
