iTunes on Linux (Ubuntu)

iTunes 9

I bought the new iPhone 3GS and in order to use the phone I needed to actually activate the phone using Apple iTunes. Nomally iTunes and Ubuntu is a no-go, however using the latest wine from the Ubuntu it is possible out of the box – I’ really impressed of the wine project.

What you need

Check that you got the at least the following wine version:

$ dpkg -l | grep wine | awk '{ print $2, " ",$3}'
wine             1.1.29~winehq0~ubuntu~9.04-0ubuntu2
wine-gecko    1.0.0-0ubuntu1

If not, then install wine:

$ sudo aptitude install wine wine-gecko

Then download iTunes 8.x (important to download version 8.x otherwise it doesn’t work out of the box)

$ wget wget http://appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite.net/content.info.apple.com/iTunes8/061-6717.20090715.XsE4R/iTunesSetup.exe

Then just run the install process
$ wine iTunesSetup.exe

And finally start iTunes.

    Oh my goodness. Please tell me you’re serious. Is this just to activate the phone, or does app-synching and importing files and syncing work, too? I’m intrigued because this has been a major show-stopper for about two of my friends who otherwise felt fine switching to Linux. (they have Touches and don’t wanna’ hack them to bits just to use OpenSSH)

    :3 I’m going to try this soon. If this is true, it means there will be much less strife over the new iPhone/touch issue that’s clouded over the compatibility scene so much as of late. Even if it’s slow/cumbersome to play music in, it would still be valuable for actually being able to use the devices for their intended purpose.

    Anyway, this is a light of encouragement to me. Means my Linux-envious friends may not have to stay with Windows and Mac OS X much longer.

    were you able to synchronize your ipod touch? itunes loads but syncing is another thing.

    I did this but I keep getting a program error. Itunes will not load. Using Ubuntu 9.04 and I didn’t have wine, I installed it as per above. Sorry :(

    You can not connect anything to Wine via USB out of the box, at least as of today, see http://wiki.winehq.org/USB

    I did not try patching as described at http://wiki.winehq.org/USB.

    Install iTunes on Ubuntu works out of the box as described, but I could not connect iPod 3G to iTunes.

    “Install iTunes on Ubuntu ” I meant installing iTunes into WIne on Ubuntu 9.04

    when itunes is installing it gets all the way to the end and says that the program has encountered some errors and not changes have been made to my system. Anyone know how to sort this problem out?

    Also i backed up my windows vista computer onto an external hard drive before installing linux mint and want to restore my back up on linux, does anyone know how to do this?

    I am getting errors as well when I try to install iTunes. Everything seems to go swimmingly until the end of the installation process, when I am told that there are errors and no changes have been made to my system.

    Any additional assistance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Me the same. Installation seems to work but then there occur errors and a notice that there was a problem installing quicktime.

    Anybody got an idea how to solve this problem?

    When he says confirm you have wine > 1.1.4 he means it. When he says ‘latest wine from Ubuntu” he actually means a wine newer than Ubuntu will give you.

    Try the latest beta release from: http://www.winehq.org/download/deb

    If your on 9.10 already just try the latest 9.04 copy till they catch up.

    Of course that doesn’t mean that it’ll sync or even see your iPhone 3GS

    Hmmmm, that long comment seems to have killed this discussion utterly!

    Has anyone been able to sync an iphone using this method in Ubuntu 9.10?

    I followed the instructions, but also got the ‘errors’ message and itunes was not available in WINE. I’ve uninstalled WINE and hopefully that will roll everything back to how it was.

    The hunt for a way to sync my iphone with ubuntu continues…. (thanks though!)

    This thread has convinced me to not even think about getting an iPad which apparently also requires a second computer with iTunes for some reason. I have no windows or wine nor the time to experience all of the pain illustrated above. Ubuntu is great but it is sometimes limiting.

    I was looking to try this with Ubuntu – but when I went to install Wine it says it is not available for my hardware archiecture.

    What does that mean?
