When I try to access my phone’s files, it gives me this error (Unhandled lockdownd code ‘-5’)
and I don’t know how to fix it. How can I fix it?

I’m a fellow Fedora user too - take a look at this Fedora Bugzilla ticket: 2321958 – Fedora 41 beta breaks iPhone USB file transfer
In short, the upstream project for enabling connections to iOS devices has maintained use of SHA1 for signatures when performing the “Trust this computer” process with those devices, because that’s necessary for the oldest possible iOS devices. SHA1 is disallowed by default in Fedora 41, so libimobiledevice can’t use it and errors out.
There’s a workaround for now by reverting your entire system back to Fedora 40’s cryptographic security policies, which then allows libimobiledevice to use SHA1 again: sudo update-crypto-policies --set FEDORA40
Ultimately it’ll need figured out upstream how to manage operating systems that don’t support SHA1.
Hope this helps,
