In the past with Ubuntu I would just plug in the camera to the USB port and an icon would come up that I could click on to get the content out. How does this happen with the KDE? I plugged the camera in and nothing happened. My desktop is in folder view, no new icons have come up. Dolphin shows a dvd in computer and my external hard drive, but no camera. Thanks in advance for any help.

Running Kubuntu 22.10 with Plasma 5.26.3, Frameworks 5.100.0, Qt 5.15.6, kernel 5.19.0-23 on Ryzen 5 4600H, AMD Renoir, X11 FWIW: it's always useful to state the exact Plasma version (+ distribution) when asking questions, makes it easier to help ...

That said, I find it easier to use the device notifier - particularly as my camera has two storage devices and the device notifier allows me to select which one I want to open.
