If I open BlueTooth Settings, then select the device from the list on the left, then click on the "Browse Files" button, then IT WORKS.
It's definitely the notification-area widget that it's broken. I'm going to change this to "confirmed" because if we wait for someone else to test it (let alone confirm it) we're going to wait forever. There's enough information in this report to start fixing it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1254106 Title: "browse files" on device does nothing Status in “indicator-bluetooth” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I click on the Bluetooth icon on the top-right corner of the screen next to the battery icon My mobile phone is listed in the drop down. I select it and I click on "Browse files" Expected: a Nautilus window should appear showing the browsable contents of the device. Maybe the device should prompt me whether to allow browsing before Observed: ABSOLUTELY NOTHING happens. The computer doesn't even try to connect to the phone. Nothing happens on the phone, nothing happens on the computer; no error message is shown anywhere, it's just as if I had done nothing. I've done an hcidump while trying this, and it's empty. This HAD WORKED BEFORE on the same machine and with the same device.
