@Henry

Thanks for the direction. Sadly, it hasn't wor)kded for me. I did as you directed - "...modifying the software source line and change 'saucy' to 'precise'..." and so was able to get the package installed. Unfortunately it appears not to have made a difference for me. :-(

I have
libimobiledevice-utils 1.1.5-0ubuntu2
libimobiledevice4 1.1.5-0ubuntu2
as Pablo notes in his post #155

I have also done the mkdir and chgmod steps indicated above in post #148

I've done some more experimenting (after I've applied the package as described above). Here's what I've found.

When I plug the phone in I get the "Trust this computer" message on the phone right away and the dialog on my computer indicating "The device "Michael's iPhone is locked...". If I click cancel I get a dialog which says "Unable to mount Michael's iPone". If, instead, I click the "trust" button on the phone and quickly click the "try again" button on the computer I get a dialog box which says "Unhandled Lockdown error (-12)". I have also seen "Unhandled Lockdown Error (-256)". I don't know if this information provides any clues or not. I hope so.

One more bit of information, perhaps helpful, perhaps not - I've tried this both with, and without a (simple) passcode on my phone.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.
