Moving bug to nautilus as it appears to be a problem with mounting CDs and nautilus handles (part of) that.
I downgraded Nautilus* using yum and attempted to access a bootible FAT disk and a commercial music CD. Neither was accessible although a linux install disk acted normally when inserted. Since the issue started after and upgrade, I'm skeptical that Nautilus is the problem. Here is the output from dmesg after inserting a disk: [ 433.164239] sr 1:0:0:0: [sr0] Sense Key : Not Ready [current] [ 433.164249] sr 1:0:0:0: [sr0] Add.

I just inserte a disk that is accessible, linux disk, then ejected using the "Eject" command in file manager. I then inserted a previously unaccessible disk and now file manager can read the disk. Previous ejections were done using the manual button on the CD. Is this helpful and should I expect to read a disk when the previous one was ejected manually? The FAT disks were not readable after reboot of the computer after manually ejecting a linux formatted disk.
This looks like a hardware bug. Please try mounting in console and see what happens. Also, they're not FAT disks, the standard CD/DVD data filesystem is ISO 9660.
I can now see the disks. What I did was insert a Fedora install disk in the drive and then ejected it with the "Eject" button in the file manager. Inserting a media disk then opens the file manager with the directory showing as expected. Apparently ejecting the disk with the hardware button on the DVD/CD drive does not allow the software to clean up the temporary files, or at least that is my initial thought. Does this sound reasonable? Fyi: I did find a file in the /media folder with no media inserted in the drive when I was trying to troubleshoot on my own. When checking when file manager is working normally, I find no files in the /media folder.

I have a friend with the same issue, media disks cannot be accessed, and I will be working on his computer Saturday. I will update after I look at his computer.
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
