[Bug 1400470] Re: cannot download photos using shotwell via usb

 

I see the following  message from Shotwell 0.22.0 in Ubuntu 16.04 every
time a iPhone4s is plugged in to my computer usb:

Shotwell
Unable to fetch previews from the camera:
Could not claim the USB device (-53)


I have to click "Ok" to remove this message before I can access Shotwell. This warning has always appeared for a few years. Annoying. It will be great that this warning be removed.
