I'm exporting my photos to my computer by connecting my iPhone 5S (iOS 7.1.1) to my Ubuntu 14.04 setup and cutting the photos from the DCIM
folder and pasting them on my computer.
The photos go through alright, but the camera roll still shows the thumbnails. When I click on the thumbnail I get a white blank screen.
How come?
How can I move photos out of the phone without keeping its thumbnail in the camera roll?
