Try mounting it manually. With it plugged in, open a terminal and do:

Code: [Select]

mkdir ~/kidscamera
mount /dev/sdb ~/kidscamera
This will create a folder in your home folder called 'kidscamera'
When you have finished, unmount the camera with:

Code: [Select]

umount ~/kidscamera

that did not work or I don't know enough to fill in the blanks to make it work


lsblk
sda      8:0    0  93.2G  0 disk
├─sda1   8:1    0  91.2G  0 part /
├─sda2   8:2    0     1K  0 part
└─sda5   8:5    0     2G  0 part [SWAP]
sdb      8:16   1  13.2M  0 disk
sr0     11:0    1  1024M  0 rom 
 

The camera is sdb
When I try to mount ( it makes me mount as root)

sudo mount /dev/sdb ~/kidscamera
mount: /dev/sdb: can't read superblock
