If you wonder why I go through the trouble of browsing files on the phone from the computer and fetching them, instead of sending them from the phone to the computer,
that's because if I send them, they get systematically rejected, a regression that appeared back in 13.04 or 12.10 (it used to work before). Browsing files from the computer and copying them used to work, until I upgraded to 13.10
