for direct trouble shooting it might be helpful to post up the Hardware and iOS versions you are dealing with.

In relation to tools that can image the iPhone the obvious first question relates to your employment. Are you working in Law Enforcement?

If you are LE then you can apply for free access to the Zdziarski toolset:
www.iosresearch.org/
They work on both Linux and Mac

Otherwise if you have access to a Mac then Sean at Katana offers a good solution:
katanaforensics.com/

My personal preference at the moment (due to its Windows and Mac support) would be the offerings from Elcomsoft:
www.elcomsoft.com/eift.html

There are other solutions that offer iPhone imaging as part of their arsenal such as the Cellebrite Ultimate unit:

Hi Herve


Because you are looking for possible free solution, a few posts I read that I wasn't sure whether you have read them?

Doug, the Elcomsoft version is also LE only so 2 of those choices the majority can't use.

Everyday I am more amazed at the companies that go this route and only supply to LE.
