Missing Photos, Videos and bookmarks
 

Hello all,

I have had this problem for about a week now ever since the last over the air update for the n900

I have lost the following:

bookmarks all missing within browser
Videos not showing in media player
Photos not showing in photo browser

but strangely everthing shows up in the file manager. and when selected will play the video or photo selected.

I have tried to re-flash the device but it is still having the same problem!

Has anyone else experienced this and if so is their a solution to fix it?

Re: Missing Photos, Videos and bookmarks
 

Interesting. Maybe a tracker problem for videos, although I'm sure that doesn't handle bookmarks.

I guess nobody knows a solution to this then! Am I the first to encounter this problem?

Re: Missing Photos, Videos and bookmarks
 

What happens if you try and add a bookmark - does that appear?

Re: Missing Photos, Videos and bookmarks
 

Very good question, just tried it and yes I can add new bookmarks but all my old ones have gone! So maybe thats one problem solved kind of!

Now to get my phone to recognise it has photos and videos stored on its internal storage!

Re: Missing Photos, Videos and bookmarks
 

type in xterminal

"tracker-processes -r" should reset files for media player

Re: Missing Photos, Videos and bookmarks
 

When I did my initial search I found this same xterminal command which I tried and also just tried again. It makes media player think for a minutes then shows again (no songs) (no videos) 48 Stations etc. But in my photos just says (no images), this phone is really starting to bug me know! Why will it not just work like the old Nokia used to?

I have just copied a new film to my phone and loaded up media player.

It started doing its background scan for files then came up 'Operation failed'

something is really wrong with this!

Possibly some kind of filesystem corruption?

very possible, but how do I fix such a problem?
