Error Initializing Camera 53 Could Not Claim The Usb Device
camera: -53: Could not claim the USB device" Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ] New developments: I dug up some old testing info from another problem and see that I was using $ gvfs-mount -s gphoto2 to unmount gvfs filesystems (used for all cameras supporting the PTP standard for photo transfers) But to use gvfs-mount, you have to first install gvfs-bin. But in any case that now seems unnecessary. Once in PCManFM, one can eject/unmount any of the filesystems displayed for the camera, and it will unmount all of them. One of the displayed filesystems will disappear from PCManFM at that point, and the other one or two will remain displayed (thereby reflecting some status as recognized or available, but not mounted). The camera is ready to be unplugged. But there is still a lot of buggy behavior here. Either by PCManFM, or perhaps by gvfs at the bottom of it. Some problems: - The Kodak EasyShare C182 error when plugged in: "Error initializing camera: -53: Could not claim the USB device." - Multiple filesystems are represented. Two for the Canon Powershot G1, both with matching contents. Three for the Kodak EasyShare C182; some or all of the contents are duplicated. - There is another error if you do not initially mount the camera storage in PCManFM, but say, in Shotwell, then close that and try to mount in PCManFM. I didn't record the error but it duplicates reliably. These bad behaviors are more troubling because opening PCManFM when plugging in a camera is the only option offered by default. On account of that I hope someone has time to better define the bug(s) and pursue the problem. (I've undertaken several of these mis/adventures. It is sometimes a long road, and now would be a bad time for me take a big detour.) That reference to Shotwell brings me to another point. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Looking for a less troubling and confusing user experience, I found it reported that Shotwell is the default photo manager for Ubuntu 14.04. It's available via Synaptic and only installs a few small dependencies. Total download was 12.5 MB as I recall. Now plugging in a camera results in Shotwell being offered alongside the file manager as choices to mount the storage. There is also a checkbox where one could choose to always use Shotwell instead of being offered the choice. (Though for the Kodak there is still the Error -53 popup to OK through.) The Shotwell interface reasonably shows just one fi
