Unable to mount ipod - Unhandled Lockdown error (-5)

[Meelad]

My ipod touch with iOS 4.3.3 doesn't mount on Ubuntu 11.10..

It gives me the following error:

Unable to mount ipod
Unhandled Lockdown error (-5)



Any ideas??

I found the solution.. Install iFuse and then do this:

sudo apt-get install libimobiledevice-utils
idevicepair unpair && idevicepair pair

I had the same error and idevicepair worked for me running Ubuntu 11.10 x64 (I installed ifuse & libimobiledevice-utils together)

sudo apt-get install ifuse libimobiledevice-utils
idevicepair unpair && idevicepair pair

sudo apt-get install ifuse libimobiledevice-utils
idevicepair unpair && idevicepair pair

Which confirms that this solution indeed fixes it.

Thanks for sharing... Moving on to the next problem (the default application).

I am having the same problem. When I try to repair, I get the following error:

QueryType failed, error code -256

Any ideas?

Thanks!

That solution worked for me with an iOS 5 iphone 4 and Oneiric.

Sweet. Thanks.

I used the ifuse solution, first time around worked.
Just wanted to say THANK YOU.

Hi

I am having the same problem. When I try to repair, I get the following error:

QueryType failed, error code -256

Any ideas?

Thanks!

From http://libimobiledevice.sourcearchiv...8h_source.html

#define LOCKDOWN_E_UNKNOWN_ERROR -256

Maybe you could use strace and see where it fails. That will tell you the problematic function.

Kind regards
