| 1309485 | 2012-10-31 03:32:00 | Agent_24, thanks. The troublefixers solution doesn't apply because the solution only addresses pictures on the iphone and I can access those via explorer even now. Basically it looks as though that solution is about how to get the iphone to re-display itself as a camera icon. Good thought though. The applei solution has a bit more promise. My first attempt failed as it's not compatible with 7-64bit though it let me install it before it told me. Ok, so I crank the 32bitXP laptop up and installed the program. Immediately the error: Can't subscribe to AMDevice appeared. A bit more reading and it says use itunes to get functionality. My solution was to start the service Apple Mobile Device to which explorer complied by showing the iphone file contents. Ok. so it needs the batch file to start the service though has the convenience of explorer as the viewing mechanism and it doesn't need itunes. So far, I think this is the best solution. Thanks for posting these options. |

| 1309486 | 2012-10-31 04:43:00 | I think the solution is to stay away from Apple in the first place... I make exception with my iPod since it was free! | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 1309487 | 2012-10-31 05:01:00 | Itunes is compatible with 64 bit, since there's a 64 bit version of it. If youre trying to install 32 bit Itunes on 64 bit, install 64 bit | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1309488 | 2012-10-31 08:13:00 | Itunes is compatible with 64 bit, since there's a 64 bit version of it. If youre trying to install 32 bit Itunes on 64 bit, install 64 bit Sorry Speedy, I think you've misunderstood me. Perhaps I didn't explain it very well. The program I installed is from http://iphonefolders.com/ it was iphonefolders that gave the incompatible 64bit notice. On the 32bit lappy it installed fine. Iphonefolders works because it shows the raw file system. |

| 1309489 | 2012-11-02 11:03:00 | It's been a couple of days and I've had time to play with iphonefolders and ifunbox along with the batch files I created to start/stop the "Applemobile device" service. iphonefolders is proving to be a bit buggy. I can start the service, then view the files but if I stop the service, then restart it... iphonefolders won't play as it should. ifunbox on the other hand doesn't need the service manually starting. It will activate the service automatically. So I'm going to keep ifunbox and dump iphonefolders. I'm posting this for the benefit of those interested and those who find this post at a later stage. Hope it helps keep your PC up to speed. |

| 1309491 | 2012-11-02 12:15:00 | One last thing as a pointer to those wanting to streamline iphone access on a PC using ifunbox but without itunes. I was able to uninstall these: Itunes Bonjour Apple software updater I needed to keep: Apple application support Apple mobile device support I could switch this service to manual: Apple mobile device (as this program would start with the launch of ifunbox). |
