Bug Description

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

My iPhone 3GS was showing up and working just fine in Rhythmbox just a month or two ago. I only use Rhythmbox to copy music to the iPhone, which I have done previously and repeatedly without incident. For some reason, I suspect due to an update somewhere along the line, the iPhone stopped showing up within Rhythmbox.

Note that the iPhone DOES automount, show up on the desktop, and I can browse it with Nautilus. I have tried go get Rhythmbox to recognize it with (a) automount enabled and disabled, (b) automatically at Rhythmbox startup and with Rhythmbox -> Music -> Scan Removable Media, and (c) all logical combinations of (a) and (b). Nothing works.

In a nutshell, then, my iPhone functions as always with Gnome, Nautilus, and any other way that I wish to work with it, but for some reason Rhythmbox has, within the last few months, stopped recognizing the iPhone.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
