The original bug was that it was repeatedly popping up the error dialog saying it could not mount it. In this case it is mounting it successfully but for some reason is remounting it, as if you lost connection.
If you watch the syslog you may see if it actually sees the connection dropping and reconnecting. Dumb question but have you tried a different cable. -- 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/1160847 Title: gvfs should not attempt to mount MTP devices in an endless loop (cluttering your desktop with messages) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/1160847/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
