Description Fergus Incoronato 2017-05-19 22:45:08 UTC
I installed `kdeconnect` and `indicator-kdeconnect` as explained at [OMG! Ubuntu!](http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2017/02/easy-way-connect-android-to-ubuntu-pc) and [github](https://github.com/vikoadi/indicator-kdeconnect/issues/43):

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:varlesh-l/indicator-kdeconnect
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt install kdeconnect indicator-kdeconnect

Everything seems to work properly except the ***Browse device*** functionality. If I click on the indicator and then on *Browse device*, `nautilus` pops-up however the directory (`$HOME/.config/kdeconnect/[DEVICEID]/kdeconnect_sftp/[DEVICEID]`) is empty.

Do you have any suggestion on how to proceed from here?

Thanks in advance.
