Apparently it broke with iOS 10 and you need to make sure that the iPhone "trusts" your computer so it exposes its filesystem.
That looks like you still have the KDE4 based dolphin installed. Remove the dolphin4 package and try it again.
Thanks for that link plus your suggestion below re dolphin4. That got me part way to a solution . . . Re the dolphin4 issue, the problem was a remaining dolphin .desktop file under ~./local/share/applications. Once removed, dolphin5 now opens from Notifier invoking the camera:/ kio slave. The kio also works now if dolphin is launched independently. The workaround to see files on the phone is to open a first instance of dolphin using the kio but not open the parent folder; then open a second instance of dolphin and then go down to the DCIM folder. This works most of the time, but not always. I also had to reset the phone's network settings to force it to display the "Trust Computer" screen, which it had stopped doing. Now that works, too. As you indicated, apparently getting the "Trust" to work properly with various iphones/OS's is a known issue. So now at least I can get at the photo files using the kio slave. However, all the apps which rely upon libgphoto2 still cannot see the DCIM folder/ files. So there is something the kio is doing to access the phone which is different than gphoto2. Also, web posts indicate that different distros use different methods to make the connection, and this does not work on even many current releases. So obviously there is more to this. Along the way with this I did discover ifuse. Installed it and it seems to work well enough. It does require the "Trust" function to be working too, though.
Good luck, Fabian
Thanks Fabian, I got far enough to retrieve photos, although I've lost my Digikam functionality. But I can live with that. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
