If this was a windows computer I would know what to do, but in MAC I am kind of lost.
As a workaround, as long as your camera has an SD type card, you can simply insert the card into a USB reader and plug that into your Mac. That is easier than tethering the camera to the Mac. FWIW, check your Finder Preferences to make sure you have it set to show external hard drives, etc. on the desktop.
If Image Capture is seeing your pics then your issue is solved? That's how I get the pics off my Nikon too.
one update
Image Capture does see the camera and images in it and I can import them into the laptop this way.
The question now is, why the rest of the apps like Lightroom or Nikon's ViewNX-i, Nikon Transfer 2 etc. do not see those pictures?
I am not looking for a workaround, looking for a fix
Well, I find it so much easier to insert a small USB card reader rather than a big camera, so I don't use that as a workaround - it is my preferred method.
No worries. Explain the steps you took so far?
Erasing my post. Member's issue is resolved. SMH
LMAO I give up. Another post edit. Congrats. Glad it's working.
Did all the standard things.
I am fairly technical, so if there is anything I could try in terminal I am happy to do so.
thank you for the tip
checked the finder preferences and they are ok
just fyi. I am not looking for a workaround, looking for a fix as I can transfer those pictures in my windows machine
Actually yes.
I have no started the Lightroom and after importing all pictures previously with Image Capture, now the rest of the apps see the Nikon Camera as well.
Strange...
Macbook doesn't see / recognize my DSLR Nikon D7100
