Itunes Video Drm Removal Linux Mint Rating: 6,0/10 5313 votes

Trying to run iTunes with Wine, i faced various problems. Here is a working solution how to install iTunes on Debian-based systems (in my case Linux Mint 18.1) - with support for the iTunes Store. Warning: Syncing i-devices is still not possible.When installing it with the playonlinux-'iTunes 12'-script, log in into the Store was not possible in my case. Wine showed the follwing error when trying to log in: SecurityContext failed with error 0x800903041. Install current Wine version (2.0.1) directly from the winehq repositorywget -nc apt-key add Release.keysudo apt-add-repository 'deb xenial main'sudo apt-get updatesudo apt-get install -install-recommends winehq-stablewine -version2. Create a new 32 bit wineprefix (if you are doing this on a 64 bit system) and set windows versionWINEPREFIX=/home/user/.wine32 WINEARCH=win32 wine winebootWINEPREFIX=/home/user/.wine32 WINEARCH=win32 wine winecfgSet Windows Version to Windows 7 or newer3.

Download the newest winetrickssudo apt-get remove winetrickswget +x winetrickssudo mv -v winetricks /usr/local/bin4. Install gdiplus library using winetricksWINEPREFIX=/home/user/.wine32 winetricksStandard wineprefix install Windows DLL gdiplus OK5. Download iTunes Version 12.1.3 - 32 bit and install it (version is important!)/home/user/DownloadsWINEPREFIX=/home/user/.wine32 wine iTunesSetup.exeFollow the setup, anwer the AutoRun Question with NO.6. It may crashes the first time, just start it again. Now you should be able to use iTunes and log in to the iTunes Store and download and play your purchased music and videos!Start from command line:cd /home/user/.wine32/drivec/Program Files/iTunes/WINEPREFIX='/home/user/.wine32' wine iTunes.exe. The black screen seems to appear on some Intel GPUs. Maybe the workaround described works for you.

Please also try iTunes 32 bit as said. This should fix the black screen, but unfortunately I never got USB devices working in wine.But: iPod, iPhone, iPad are definitely working if you install Windows+iTunes in a VM (VirtualBox) as described.Nevertheless (if you only want to reset your iPad) you should be able to do that through the system settings on the iPad itself.There were also some attempts for USB passthrough in wine, but I haven't tested it yet. I’ll paste the link here so someone might try it out.

No jailbreaking required (but also works for jailbroken iPhones). All repairs are done locally and privately on your computer and there is no need to use third-party software to restore the backup as Decipher Backup Repair backups are compatible with iTunes.

3. Finally update intramfs and reboot your machine.

To check if previous changes work after reboot, run command:

It should output ‘Y’.

In addition, to get much SMOOTHER Nvidia window dragging experience, you can also do:
