My Nikon DSLR never shows on the desktop. If is available when I install Nikon's ViewNX 2 software that includes a transfer program, and it shows if I launch Image Capture. It also shows if I remove the SD card from the camera and plug it into either a USB card reader or the built-in card reader on the side of my iMac or my MBP notebook.


I think Nikon does not want people messing with the file structure at the root level of the card and somehow forces the use of software to view and move files
