Bug 1051447 is about this same problem, it seems. That one's assigned to
glib. It probably is that general, 'cause it's happening in totem and
other apps, too. (Like bug 1051371; I duped that one, too.) So I'm going
to mark this a dupe of bug 1051447. I think you'll agree; change things
if you don't. I'm going to edit 1051447 to note that the whole path is
a problem, not just the filename.
Thanks.

Title:
[regression] Cannot open files whose paths contain apostrophes
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When the containing directory name contains an apostrophe, launching a
file in either the default or a specific viewer fails.
For example, I have photos in a directory whose full path is
"/media/abentley/ED1T/Pictures/2012/Trisha's 40th birthday".
Attempting to launch the file by double-clicking launches Gnome Image
Viewer, which errors with "The given locations contain no images."
Launching the file in Firefox attempts to load the URL
"file:///media/abentley/ED1T/Pictures/2012/Trisha%27s".
Launching the file in Chromium attempts to load the URL
"file:///media/abentley/ED1T/Pictures/2012/Trisha's"
The same problem happens if the filename, itself, contains an
apostrophe. Launching "/home/abentley/Music/lossy-copies/Core/Graydon
James and the Young Novelists/In the Year You Were Born/01-I Was a
Young Man's Son.ogg" starts up Totem, which says "An error occurred:
Location not found."
