Public bug reported:

I'm not sure this is reliably reproducible, but maybe there's something
helpful in the logs. I can't seem to start up Nautilus and if I click on
the folder icon next to a downloaded file in the Downloads drop-down in
Firefox then Firefox freezes. It was working fine and then after I had
closed it I couldn't start it again when I tried later.

If I run Nautilus in Terminal it hangs for a while and then the
following appears in Terminal before it gives up:

(nautilus:15487): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **:
g_dbus_interface_skeleton_unexport: assertion
'interface_->priv->connections != NULL' failed

(nautilus:15487): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: g_dbus_interface_skeleton_unexport: 
assertion 'interface_->priv->connections != NULL' failed
Could not register the application: Timeout was reached

(nautilus:15487): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_icon_theme_get_for_screen:
assertion 'GDK_IS_SCREEN (screen)' failed

(nautilus:15487): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid (NULL) pointer
instance

(nautilus:15487): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_signal_connect_object:
assertion 'G_TYPE_CHECK_INSTANCE (instance)' failed


The Nautilus process was still running (which it does normally). After I Ended 
the process in System Monitor I was able to start it up again and now it works 
fine, I'm able to open and close the app again. Something went wrong though 
and, though this is not easily reproducible, stuff like this shouldn't happen 
in the first place!
