I have A laptop with Ubuntu 17.04 & installed Gthumb, I need to sync my phone and remove the photos because I'm running low on space, but the PC isn't recognizing there are pictures.
Is there a specific way to do this? I'm open to any other software suggestions as well.
I'm using Ubuntu 17.04
First please look at this issue mentioned here, then use this method to try to mount it:
Run this command, (it automates the process):
curl -O https://www.signalnine.org/downloads/iphone.sh && so sh iphone.sh && dmesg | grep ipheth && idevicepair pair && ifuse /media/iPhone
Launch nautilus and iphone should be seen the left pane.
Unmount it with:
fusermount -u /media/iPhone/
idevicepair unpair
If you have rooted your phone you can mount the root filesystem with the following command:
ifuse /media/iPhone/ --root

Don't own an iPhone, so not tested.
