Calling connect and import vs. your method which in no way solves Ant' 
issue as being more complicated is absurd. For starters your method 
involves requires installing Linux first.

Again your reading comprehension fails you. I never said it uses iTunes. 
I specifically said to dismiss iTunes related pop-ups. You keep letting 
your anti-Apple bias affect your thought. Or, you are misrepresenting 
what I am saying deliberately.

Well, only Ant can tell if that was tried. Don't ask me, that is absurd.

MacOS is not Linux and asking me questions that only Ant or nospam may 
answer is absurd on your part.

Only in your distorted world. You did not provide a usable solution for Ant.

You strike at anyone that disagrees with you.
