yes, i found a similar problem when i was trying to get pictures off my camera as the device was being grabbed by something else instead of what i wanted. i developed a script to make sure the camera was unmounted and then remounted where i wanted it. i don't have time to break it all out here but the script is freely available at: https://github.com/flowerbug/camera_file it uses fusermount, gio and gphoto. another script for moving and backing up files that is for me a second step is at: https://github.com/flowerbug/mcol_pictures i hope this helps. songbird
