Summary: Can't import photos from iphone

Initial Comment:
I'm a shotwell user. And I've been told on the shotwell launchpad that the error I encounter comes from the gPhoto library.
I get the following error message : 


*** Erreur ***
PTP erreur d'entrée sortie

*** Erreur ***
Une erreur est intervenue dans la bibliothèque d'entrée-sortie ('Erreur indéfinie'): Pas de description d'erreur disponible
*** Erreur (-1 : "Erreur indéfinie") ***

Which I would translate by :

An error occured in the input-output library ('Undefined error') : No error description available.

here is the history of my exchange with the shotwell team:

Message:
i suspect GNOME gvfs has grabbed the device before and connected to it. Is
there any camera or iphone icon 
for opening in Nautilus appearing on plugin?

the logfile shows the device being detected, but without any successful
communication.
