Hmm, Apple iDevices have never appeared as a usb device.
I have only tried it on Windows though.
Last time I connected a iPhone to my computer I could only get access to
the picture stream but not the rest of the filesystem.
I don't have any iDevices now since I've moved over to Android-land.
My Android appears as a usb device on Windows but I've yet to try it on
Linux.

Hi,
I do not have one of these devices, but am working on a product where
people might want to mount their iWhatevers using command line tools.
i now have an IPod for testing.
It gets mounted as a normal uSB storage device and seem to work, but
there are a number of packages for using the Apple stuff under command
line linux.
e.g. libimobiledevice-utils.
There also is a script mount-iphone.sh which uses gvfs-mount to mount
the iphone.
It tells me that the device, refered to by its serial number, is already
mounted if I boot the machine with the iPod plugged in.
If I plug it in while the machine is running, I can use the script to
mount as root. It then says the device is mounted, but not where.
According to the instructions that goes with the script, one should find
the name of the device under a directory in $HOME called .gvfs. I do
not have such a directory after the mount.
Is any of you doing what I am trying to do?
Should I bother, or will all Apple devices be seen as a USB storage
device and be mounted without these other scripts?
TIA, Willem
