Dr.Cartinian People here does not talk about importing pictures from the iPhone to ubuntu or windows via vmware. That Works im sure no one here expirienced problem with that part. The issue is syncing data through itunes via windows xp/vista/shmista running under VMware.

And Milli I can totaly understand your frustration. allthough other Virtual solution softwares having the same issues unsolved i saw no other to claim that they already have a fix for that. as claimed in one of the postes here by vmware staff member. Now thats ANNOYING! You have a fix? Let it go!! Let us beta test it.. Alpha test it.. pre-alpha test it!! or whatever.!

ARG! :<

Hello !

I have an ipod touch.

what fix should I use ti make it work with my workstation 6 ?

Thanks!

In the meanwhile i think its better for us all to use the gtkpod solution. Not perfect but atleast it works!!!! just look what some "kids" with programming skill can achieve in a short time while vmware programmers cannot and they are getting paid!

cmon guys (refering to vmware employees) be serious. dont be evil!

Related question: if this isn't fixed by the time "my friend's" 30-day eval license expires, will "he" be able to get another one once it is?

Thanks!

Another few weeks.... any more news?

Yeah, I'm sitting with a Windows partition I still have to keep around just to sync my phone.

And I don't just sync music, I sync EVERYTHING (Outlook for my appointments and contacts, TV shows, movies, the whole 9 yards).

I use Evolution which talkes to OWA so I don't have to even use Outlook, but since iPhone is so married to Windows I have to keep it around. It's the only thing I have left that if I get rid of, I can jettison Windows for good (short of using seamlessRDP to run Visual Studio, but that's how I earn $$$).

With VMware, I use SeamlessRDP so I have my XP start bar on the top of my screen and KDE start bar on bottom of the screen. Can run Linux apps and XP apps simultaneously. Most of the time cut & paste works between apps as well. Just gotta get that f___in' iTunes to work!

VMware Fusion supports iPhone (look at their new release notes), and OSX is BSD-based! Something must be up with Linux not being able to talk to multichannel USB devices. Could the problem actually be in the kernel and VMware doesn't have a way to get around it without going through Purgatory (re: kernel developers)?

What's up with the fix for this, guys?

On a support call with VMWare on this topic, a MONTH ago, I was told they had an internal fix and were still testing it, and not ready to release it to the public yet. But its been a month now. Whats going on? Good lord how hard could this be? VMWare's credibility is steadily slipping here...
