Seems an unrecognized device for libmtp.
Forwarding.

If you would help upstream in providing support for your device, please follow the instructions described here:
http://libmtp.sourceforge.net/newdevice.php

[Ajay (ajayrockrock)]

I was able to get mine working by disabling the "Portable Players - MTP" plugin in rhythmbox. MTP is not compatible with iPhones so I tried disabling it and it's working fine for me now. This bug is still valid because if MTP doesn't work then rhythmbox should try the other plugin ("Portable Players - iPod") to try to connect to the device.

[Alessio Treglia (quadrispro)]

Ajay, so this bug affects Rhythmbox and not libmtp.

However, is this reproducible on Natty?
