  1. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pmcenery/ppa
  2. sudo apt-get update
  3. sudo apt-get install libimobiledevice

If it sais Package not found:

  1. sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
  2. Replace
    deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/pmcenery/ppa/ubuntu oneiric main
    and
    deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/pmcenery/ppa/ubuntu oneiric main
    by
    deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/pmcenery/ppa/ubuntu maverick main
    and
    deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/pmcenery/ppa/ubuntu maverick main.
  3. Save the file.
  4. sudo apt-get update
  5. sudo apt-get install libimobiledevice

On 12.04 I got this response, even editing back to maverick as you suggested. W: Failed to fetch ppa.launchpad.net/pmcenery/ppa/ubuntu/dists/precise/main/source/… 404 Not Found W: Failed to fetch ppa.launchpad.net/pmcenery/ppa/ubuntu/dists/precise/main/… 404 Not Found E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. – Glenton Apr 12 at 9:26
That's why you need to replace oneiric or precise by maverick. – RobinJ Apr 12 at 15:24
