One member had given an explanation and suggested temporary workaround.

"When a desktop launcher uses ‘DBusActivatable=true’, it will skip exec line and send a signal to to dbus to launch an application. On Unity for some reason dbus-activation is failing and causing time out."

1. sudo apt-get install gksu
2. gksudo gedit /usr/share/applications/org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop

And then comment out DBusActivatable=true like this
#DBusActivatable=true

3. save and exit. Kill nautilus. nautilus -q
4. Now it will work.
