Pin-code? In this sense did you enter a password? Right now, creating encrypted backups is not supported. Only unencrypted backups can be made.

[redromnon]

Also, have you provided the path to a previous backup or creating a new backup for the first time?

Version 2.0.2

Downloaded binary and change permissions with chmod u+x ibackep

If Run without super user privileges, get this error:

(flet:6953): dbind-WARNING **: 08:28:24.839: Couldn't connect to accessibility bus: Failed to connect to socket /root/.cache/at-spi/bus_0: Permission denied

Run as super user and backup fails each time. This is an unencrypted backup attempt.

$ sudo ./ibackep

Try backing up to a new folder and check if it works.

[trenchcoatjedi]

I tried multiple folders with no luck. I was able to backup using idevicebackup2 cmd line however.

[redromnon]

Were you getting the same error for new empty folders too?

[trenchcoatjedi]

Yes, same error no matter what folder I chose.

[redromnon]

Does it display New backup folder?: True for a new folder?

pymobiledevice3.exceptions.PyMobileDevice3Exception: Device link error: {'ErrorCode': 205, 'ErrorDescription': 'Error reading backup properties (MBErrorDomain/205). Underlying error: Error deserializing properties: Cannot parse a NULL or zero-length data (MBErrorDomain/11).', 'MessageName': 'Response'}

The above error occurs if the app assumes a completely new folder as an existing backup.

Same issue here, ubuntu 24

I also have the same error and chose to encrypt the backups in iTunes at an earlier time. It's probably because of this encryption that seems to be stored inside the device that it's not working.
