yum install simple-mtpfs

This won't work, of course, if your USB device is really a USB storage device that Gnome has decided, for some dumb reason, is really an MTP only device.

This is what F21's Gnome decided my MP3 player was. After updating to F21, I could not mount my MP3 player any more. What was, for several years, a USB storage device, was now allegedly an MTP device. Which works as well as you can probably expect.

After I received no response to my bug report, I simply bit the bullet and switched my last workstation to XFCE. Unlike Gnome, F21's XFCE desktop can mount my MP3 player just fine, with no issues.
