This is, until you jailbreak them. While I personally have no troubles with this, the fact stays that Apple has, for some cause, now not placed out an iTunes consumer for Linux distros. This could be a massive headache for iPhone users who need to apply a Linux desktop, as it\u2019s not viable to sync iPhones with Linux distros like Ubuntu. So,\u00a0<strong>if you\u2019re wondering how you can use an iPhone with Linux, here is a complete guide that might help you<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"understanding-the-problem\"><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong>Understanding the Problem<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The main problem, with using an iPhone with a Linux gadget, is the reality that you simply can\u2019t sync it. iTunes is the best software that a non-jailbroken iPhone will sync with, and it is not to be had for any Linux systems, but. There are a number of libraries which includes \u201clibimobiledevice\u201d that attempted to let users sync iPhones with Linux, but now not only is it a hassle to get it running, it doesn\u2019t paintings for iOS 10. So if you have an iPhone, and you\u2019re using a Linux machine as your each day driver, you\u2019re kind of out of success.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"how-about-some-wine\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>How about some Wine<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Wine (which is a recursive\u00a0acronym for Wine Is Not an Emulator) is\u00a0a compatibility layer application that can permit a user to\u00a0<strong>run Windows apps on a Linux system<\/strong>\u00a0(most of the time). So\u00a0my first\u00a0attempt at using an iPhone with Linux was to\u00a0run iTunes with Wine. I used Play On Linux as the front-end for the software, and then I found out, that Wine will not permit for USB\u00a0pass through, so there\u2019s no way that an iPhone will sync with it.\u00a0You could still use iTunes for\u00a0everything else, including managing your iCloud Music Library, but if it doesn\u2019t sync with an\u00a0iPhone, there\u2019s really no use for it. Which brings us to a workaround of sorts.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"owncloud-and-xampp-for-transferring-files-between-linux-and-iphone\"><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong>OwnCloud and XAMPP for Transferring\u00a0Files Between Linux and iPhone<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The first problem that we will tackle, is\u00a0somehow enabling the transfer of files, and documents between an iPhone and a Linux desktop.\u00a0To do this, you can use something like OwnCloud, along with XAMPP on your Linux system.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>OwnCloud is a\u00a0<strong>self-hosted cloud server that you can access on your iPhone<\/strong>. It comes with a free plan, and is pretty much the best way to\u00a0be able to transfer files between your iPhone and a Linux desktop. However, OwnCloud requires a server to run on, in the first place, which is where XAMPP steps in.<\/li>\n<li>XAMPP is an<strong>easy way to get a LAMP server running on your Linux<\/strong>, Mac, or Windows system. Just be careful that you install a version of XAMPP running at least PHP 5.4, because OwnCloud will not work on anything below that.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Now that we\u2019ve cleared all that out, let\u2019s get started with installing OwnCloud, and XAMPP on our system. I\u2019m using a machine running Ubuntu 16.10 Yakkety Yak to do this, and the process should be same for most other systems.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"installing-xampp-on-ubuntu-16-10\"><span style=\"color: #99cc00;\"><strong>Installing XAMPP on Ubuntu 16.10<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>We\u2019ll install XAMPP first, and set up a\u00a0folder where we can keep the Own Cloud files. To do this, just follow the steps below:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.apachefriends.org\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Download<\/a>the XAMPP installer from the official website.
