It's not only Android devices having a problem mounting MTP devices in Ubuntu 14.04. I have a Sansa View player that will not mount. The Icon comes up on the vertical side panel (whatever the heck it's called I can't remember) - the one with all the icons. If I try to open the device, it won't open.
I have installed "mtp-tools", "mtpfs" via the command line and, in Synaptic, "libmtpserver1", "libmtp-runtime", "libmtp9", "libmtp-common", "jmtpfs" and "pythonpymtp" were either already installed or installed by me. I tried running the command "sudo mtpfs -o allow_other /media/SansaView" and the following was the result: Unable to open ~/.mtpz-data for reading, MTPZ disabled.Listing raw device(s) Device 0 (VID=0781 and PID=74b0) is a SanDisk Sansa View. Found 1 device(s): SanDisk: Sansa View (0781:74b0) @ bus 1, dev 8 Attempting to connect device libusb_get_active_config_descriptor(1) failed: No data available no active configuration, trying to set configuration libusb_get_active_config_descriptor(2) failed: No data available LIBMTP PANIC: Unable to initialize device Unable to open raw device 0 And, for the record, my Galaxy S4 mounts just fine. Go figure. Should I submit a new bug regarding the SansaView since my phone's working okay? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1314556 Title: Unable to mount Android MTP device To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/1314556/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
