I am unable to import digital photos in Ubuntu 12.04.

When I plug in my camera (Canon EOS Rebel Tii) it is immediately recognized, but I am unable to download any photos. So far I have tried:

  1. Using Shotwell: Shotwell almost immedately hangs after I hit "import", and eventually it crashes.
  2. Using DarkTable: DarkTable hangs when I hit "import".
  3. Using the Ubuntu GUI file viewer: the camera is recognized, but any attempt to open the flash drive's internal folders crashes the file viewer

I am certain the camera is working fine because I can easily download photos on a friend's Mac. Does anyone have any tips? I have a lot of wedding photos on my camera right now and people are getting quite anxious to see them.

Have you tried popping out the memory card and using an external card reader? It sounds like your camera may not be using the mass-storage-device drivers correctly.
