How to Sync your Apple iDevice with iTunes using Oracle VirtualBox - Teddy - 02-07-2015 Note: This tutorial assumes that you already have a Microsoft Windows installation (XP or Above) fully functioning in Oracle VirtualBox. If you need a tutorial on how to setup a Microsoft Windows virtual machine, view the video listed in the Software Requirements section. In this tutorial, we are going to setup and install iTunes within Windows to sync your Apple iDevice with Linux. This is useful if you have trouble getting your iDevice working with GTKPod within Linux. The example device I will use to do this tutorial is a 7th Generation (Green) iPod Nano [2012 Version]. Software Requirements Microsoft Windows Virtual Machine - If you do not have Windows setup in Oracle VirtualBox, view this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1DhwS4eZExU.
