Ubuntu and ios devices with 4.3: sync is working again..

[DrHouse]

Great news, I was testing my latest Ubuntu 11.04 this morning and gave it a try to sync some music using Banshee. Guess what, it is working. I was able to transfer music to my iPhone as i was before. Still no luck for video, but that seem a banshee issue.

As currently writing this, I am trying to sync a video using gtkPod, cross my fingers!

GtkPod was able to sync a video to my iPhone 3GS. Trying now to sync music with my iPad 1, to validate if banshee is able to manage the music and probably GTKPod for the video portion.

Saddly, it takes a while to GTKPod to do the transfer, I leave it alone working, it will evenutally succeed.

Ok back to my iPad, still synching that music...

No luck with the iPad, maybe in a next version it it will work. But at least we have the iPhone sync back using banshee and gtkPod...

I Can't Sync Music files with Banshee

Hello,
When I try to sync my iphone 4 with Banshee on Ubuntu 11.04 I get the following error- "The mp3 format is not supported by the device, and no converter was found to cover it."

Have you installed anything else, or changed settings, to get around this error?

I have an iPhone 3GS, maybe that's why it is working. Still no luck with the iPad, so maybe it is the same for the iPhone 4... Have you tried gtkPod?

gtkPod is not working for me either. Most of my music library will not import into the program. I'm getting a message "The following track could not be processed. Filetype is known but analysis failed" for each track it can't process. And I tried to sync one of the few tracks that were processed but it's doing nothing.

It's really a shame. We might have to continue waiting...
