I've had similar problems, once or twice, when I've switched users, and
found I couldn't read a card.  It would appear that when the thingummy
was plugged in, a device was created for it on the fly, and that device
was owned by a particular user.  If I had disconnected, and waited a bit
more before changing user, it would have worked.  As is had done, since
then.
I never switch users except perhaps in a terminal when su/root is
required. I tried unplugging the cable, waiting, etc. Initially there
was no suitable app. installed, I yummed gphoto and things went down
hill from there. Restarted F-19 and had to yum gphoto there and a few
seconds later was looking ta the pictures of interest!

Fedora-20 has been getting worse each day it seems, so I am preparing to
remove and eventually re-install it. The big problem seems to be that it
refuses to recognize the user as authorized to do many ordinary things.
I don't know what has happened but I don't want to waste any more time
with this copy [from the dvd version].

I first need to be certain I've got everything I need copied to F-19. I
am writing this from F-19 which works pretty much without a hitch ...

Thanks for the response,

Bob

What does 'ls -l /run/media/'?

I get:

ls -l /run/media/
totalt 0
drwxr-x---+ 4 root root 80 23 jan 13.42 anv

where 'anv' is my username and:

ls -l /run/media/anv/
totalt 6
drwx------. 1 anv anv 4096 22 jan 19.09 37B9EF5808A7A87B
drwx------. 3 anv anv 32768  1 jan  1970 disk
dr-x------. 4 anv anv  136  7 feb  2036 DVDVOLUME

where '37B9EF5808A7A87B' is my USB disk, 'disk' is my camera (or rather
the memory card) and 'DVDVOLUME' is DVD in my DVD player


I had to restart F-20 to test. Then back here to F-19. Both give the same result except that in F-20 it asks for my pass word, the GUI authorization window pops up before I am allowed to mount the Flash drive. The camera, not the memory card, shows only in lsusb.
