How to get idevicepair to see my iPhone?
I'm trying find some way of sending files to the phone from laptop without using Internet.
Following the instructions at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/IOS for installing libimobiledevice:
- systemctl status usbmuxd.service Yes it shows running since my last boot days ago
- idevicepair pair: no device found
tail syslog shows a lot of errors on plugging in the phone but lsusb lists the phone
Following instructions at https://opensource.com/article/21/8/libimobiledevice-iphone-linux:
- ifuse --help to confirm libimobiledevice is installed: help displayed successfully
- mkdir ~/iPhone ok
- ifuse ~/iPhone: "No device found"
- ifuse ~/iPhone --root "No device found"
No relevant topics here in stackoverflow and indeed this lib does not get much attention elsewhere. Another person on reddit same issue but no replies to his question.
Ubuntu 18.04 with extended service (Pro) iPhone 16.5.1
Any suggestions?
