I could not replicate for my latest photos this evening what I reported in #8. Yet by fiddling in various ways, after a reboot I was able to coax shotwell to import the photos on the iPhone. I then had command line access to those photos in the location where shotwell dropped them. As for

It appears to me that upon my move this date to iPhone's iOS 11.3 Apple may have finally given us transparent usb file system access to our photos. See Bug # 1718554, no. 8. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to

EUREKA (maybe) ! This evening I took the iPhone update to iOS 11.3, and just out of curiosity I decided to check out the iphone as an attached device in the file manager. And I'm in. I don't know why. I did not use idevicepair nor ifuse. If I run ideviceinfo, I still get "ERROR: Could not

Following up to my #49: I'm working with Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS. The Martin Salbaba ppa had been working for me with an iphone 5 and iOS 10.3 Recently I went to a new phone running iOS 11, and I fail to get to photos with ifuse after an apparently successful "idevicepair pair". Ifuse complains

I wish to second the request of #5 that working access to photos on iphones be kept up to date in xenial. For the credibility of xenial's LTS status this should be done. Up to the recent time of a new device with iOS 11, I had things working with iOS 10.3 using Martin Salbaba's ppa for the
