Public bug reported:
I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy) and am now unable to copy
files from my iPhone (with iOS 6) using Nautilus.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open a Nautilus window.
2. Attach an iPhone. Two new entries appear under Devices in the left side
panel: "<iPhone name>" and "Documents on <iPhone name>"
3. Middle-click on the <iPhone name> entry (or right-click and select "Open in
New Tab") to mount the iPhone file system and open a new tab.
4. Copy a file from the iPhone tab, and paste into the original tab.
At this point Nautilus shows an alert box:
Error while copying "<filename>".
There was an error copying the into <directory>.
Show more details (when expanded:)
Operation not supported by backend
I don't remember if Apport prompts me to report this crash immediately
or after a certain amount of time, but I have a crash report in
/var/crash for gvfsd-afc. I'd be happy to attach it here if necessary,
though I've already reported this crash a few times; I'm sure the
developers can also find it on errors.ubuntu.com under the title "gvfsd-
afc crashed with SIGABRT in g_assertion_message()".
In Nautilus, I can still copy files to the iPhone and delete files from
the iPhone; only copying files from the iPhone is not working. I can
also view pictures from my iPhone directly, and copy files from it using
Terminal (by going to the mount point in /run/user directly), so it
appears only Nautilus is affected.
Thanks!
