iPhone Fails to Connect to Win11 VM
I can no longer connect my iPhone to iTunes running in a Win11 VM on my Linux system. I did try re-emergeing all four VirtualBox packages. I am currently running:
| Code: | $ equery list virtualbox*
* Searching for virtualbox* ...
[IP-] [ ] app-emulation/virtualbox-7.0.20:0/7.0
[IP-] [ ] app-emulation/virtualbox-additions-7.0.20:0/7.0
[IP-] [ ] app-emulation/virtualbox-extpack-oracle-7.0.20:0/7.0
[IP-] [ ] app-emulation/virtualbox-modules-7.0.20:0/7.0 |
and kernel: 6.10.5-gentoo
This did work two months ago when I last backed up my iPhone. (I have been backing up my IPhone for years doing this and have "restored" to a new IPhone also.)
Here is what happens:
1. Launch iTunes in my Win11 Virtualbox VM on my Gentoo system.
2. Plugn my iPhone to the host Gentoo box.
3. I receive error messages both on the Linux host and Win11 VM
Here are the messages that I get in the Gentoo host syslog:
| Code: | kernel: usb 1-10.1: new high-speed USB device number 71 using xhci_hcd

4. Here is a link to a screen shot from the Win11 VM with the Windows errors on the right.

I receive a new error message every second or so untill I disconnect the iPhone from the Gentoo host.
Any ideas on getting this iPhone connection working again? |

Do you have app-pda/libimobiledevice installed ? Do you use it to connect your device ? (I do not know Iphone stuff)
A new version was stabilized some weeks ago, and this bug suggests that there may be a problem with the newest version ?
I would try to downgrade it. |

No. All functions to backup and restore the iPhone are via the Windows iTunes application running in my Windows 11 VM. |

As far as I remember, there is some specific thing related to the type of usb.
The bare VirtualBox supports USB1 (or USB2 too – I do not remember),
but bare VirtualBox 100% does not support USB3. If VB was updated then it can be the case.
In logs we see xhci – this is USB3.
Try to use USB2 ports (if present on board), it may be needed to reconfigure usb ports in VB again.
Try to find what is needed to be installed on both VB and Guest (Win) systems to make USB3 passed succesfully. |

I had to use VirtualBox for a project somewhat recently (after last having used it several years ago), and I, too, thought this was the case in a corporate setting, where it would require licenses due to requiring the Extension Pack. Outside of business limitations and all that, however, I suppose the support has been there at least for some time, via said pack?
During that project however, I noticed that since VirtualBox 7.0.0 (released 2022-10-10), "The EHCI and XHCI USB controller devices are now part of the open source base package" [1], so it should be there by default.
As for the issue at hand, I had a weird issue with 'gphoto2' not finding a driver for an android device suddenly, though I don't think I changed anything related. After a while, it just started working again, but I have no clue why... and could have been caused by something completely different especially considering I did manage to get some of the other MTP solutions working at least to some extent.

In the VM's configuration I have usb set to USB3. I did try shutting down the VM and switching the configuration to use USB2 (and then USB1.1) I still receive the same error. Thanks for the suggestion. |
