Description T 2013-10-25 07:28:46 UTC
My FujiFinepix S2000HD camera mount reported in attached devices (KDE) but not visible in Dolphin After Kubuntu 13.10 upgrade
 
Have reinstalled the driver, and a few other suggestions, for other cameras mounts failing on previous Ubuntu / Kubuntu upgrades.

I have already spent a couple of hours trying to get my photo's off the camera, very annoying.

Worked perfectly in Kubuntu 11.04, 11.10, 12.04, 12.10 and 13.04.
Digested from the terminal command .......
dmesg | tail; lsusb; lsb_release -a

Distributor ID: Ubuntu
vissibleDescription:    Ubuntu 13.10

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Attach the camera
2. View in Dolphin
3.
Actual Results:  
No Folder for Camera

Expected Results:  
Folder for camera appears

Something went wrong due to the update, I have tried changing permissions, and a few other sugestions.

Does that mean that the camera does not appear in the "Places Panel"? Or that the camera is in the Places Panel, but you can't see the contents in the view? Can you access the files on the camera with the "File Open" dialog of other KDE applications?
Comment 2 T 2013-10-25 09:23:15 UTC
Cheers for the question.

The camera does not appear at all, anywhere. I tried Kate and it does not appear in open files. I tried opening with kdesudo dolphin. Nothing is visible.

Hey!!! I tried open files in Gimp, and the camera is there (I did install, sudo apt-get install gvfs-bin, previously). Cheers Dolphin doesn't work but I can access the camera through a gnome menu.

However, I still can't copy them off the camera.

the view?
Can you access the files on the camera with the "File Open" dialog of 
other KDE

Thanks for the quick reply!

In that case, it's most likely not a Dolphin issue. I'll reassign to Solid (the library that notifies KDE applications about devices attached to the computer) and hope that the Solid people have an idea what the problem might be.
Comment 5 T 2013-10-25 09:45:24 UTC
Cheers for that - how come it appears in Gimp, does that have a 
differnt method of mounting? The file menu in Kate looked Dolphinesque 
to me....

+ can you forward me the link to the "solid library" bug report so I 
can follow that.

Is there anything else I can do to help find the cause of the problem?

Tony

KDE applications use the Solid library from kdelibs for retrieving information about the devices which are available at the moment, and non-KDE applications like Gimp most likely use something else. This does not necessarily have anything to do with the actual mounting.

It's still the same bug report, it's just been reassigned to a different product.

> Is there anything else I can do to help find the cause of the problem?

I don't know, sorry.

If its not confirmed, which it is because cause others suffer, what do I do to fix it?
Comment 9 spam_2008 2013-12-19 16:14:59 UTC
Same with PTP camera Canon PowerShot A495 and Kubuntu 13.10.

Everything worked fine with Kubuntu 12.04.

The camera can be accessed in dolphin (Kubuntu 13.10) using root permissions.

No idea, sorry. I've never seen such a problem myself, and I have no idea what the cause could be.

Judging by the description on launchpad, this is a different bug. Note that this report is about the camera not appearing anywhere (see comment 3). On the other hand, the launchpad description says that the camera appears in the device notifier, but cannot be accessed without root permissions. This sounds like bug 264020 (which I could never reproduce, by the way, and which is most likely due to some misconfiguration, rather than a Dolphin bug - see bug 264020 comment 14 for solutions that worked for some users).
Comment 11 T 2013-12-19 16:30:18 UTC
I requested any one to show me why my settimgs were wrong?. Nobody replied, to ask for any information , or idea why (the upgrade stopped it working)...

That is bug that was introduced to Ubuntu/Kubuntu.  

In order to get my photo's of I installed a 12.04 partition. I have done more than 2 fresh installs tests, to prove I am correct, before posting.
Comment 12 launchpad 2014-01-12 13:42:27 UTC
Same here Ubuntu 13.10

lsusb  | grep Fuji
Bus 003 Device 085: ID 04cb:01bf Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd FinePix F6000fd/S6500fd Zoom (PTP)

Camera is recognized when USB cable is plugged in.
However, dolphin shows empty panel under "camera:/ " 
And root can indeed access the images.
Has the problem to do with rights?

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years so I am closing this bug. Please try again with the latest version and submit a new bug to frameworks-solid if your issue persists. Thank you!
