did you renamed your folders?
for example from .sounds or .videos to pics or vids?

Thanks
The question is, which folder do you see in the filemanager?
I, for example have this folder with all pictures take with the camera
/home/user/MyDocs/DCIM
This is how the real folder name is, as it is seen in xterm.
N900/Kamera is the path from within the filemanager

For "images"
/home/user/MyDocs/.images (in xterm)
N900/Bilder (from the filemanager)

regards
Nicolai

hi superkoolguy

Solution 1: copy the DCIM folder to folder Video of your mobile, for this execute follow in xterminal

root
cp -R /home/user/MyDocs/DCIM /home/user/MyDocs/.videos


Now simply open file manager> videos> u can c DCIM folder there.

Solution2: copying the files from DCIM folder into folder video of your mobile may help, for this execute follow in xterminal

root
cp /home/user/MyDocs/DCIM/*.JPEG /home/user/MyDocs/.videos
cp /home/user/MyDocs/DCIM/*.MP4 /home/user/MyDocs/.videos


Now simply open file manager> videos> u can c DCIM folder there.

It may be that the fs is corrupt, probably from removing it from a PC when it wasn't ready. That causes lots of strange things, including behavior like you're seeing. Try the following:

Code:
root
umount /home/user/MyDocs
fsck -a /dev/mmcblk0p1
mount /home/user/MyDocs
exit
That should make things stable again if that was the cause.

Once you've done that, tell tracker to re-start AS USER (not as root) like this:

Code:
tracker-processes -r

Hey guys, I have a problem where my Photos app that comes with the N900 does not recognise any recently taken photos and when I go into file manager to view file really they have the "?" icon and the Details option can't recognise they "type" of file.

Thank you for the help
