Okay. Using established terminology is always nice. :-) The device therefore is "unlocked", i. e. I have the password and I can interact with the apps. One important thing I have to verify is if the device is _registered_ so installing apps via App Store is possible. I _think_ it is, but I don't know yet. > When gphoto tries to connect, the iOS device (at least the newer > ones) will ask you if you want to “trust this computer”. I have seen that dialog before (when pairing the device), and I didn't get into the "trust loop" where the dialog appears again and again, even if you tap "trust" (as described as a problem in some web discussion forum I took my first suggestions from). > If you say “don’t trust”, then the iOS device will report no > photos on the device.
