What do you mean by "after duplicated to desktop"?
You copied them to the desktop?
How did you "transfer" them to the Mini?
What makes you think they should be on the desktop?
Olympus website FAQ: I am aMac user. What software can I use to view my images and movies on my computer?
The [ib] software bundled with this camera is not compatible with Macintosh operating systems. Mac users who wish to transfer their images and movies to a Mac for viewing, editing and sharing have two options:
Connect the camera to the computer using the camera's bundled USB cable, and then manually transfer your files to the computer using standard copy/paste or drag and drop techniques. Once the files are on your computer, you can use any third-party application of your choice to view, edit and share them.After transferring data there is no efficient way to copy to a file. The folder provides a "duplicate" option and then it "copies" items to "desktop" by default.
===============
After I transfer the data the unnamed folder gives me the option to "duplicate". When I do this the data, by default, "copies" to the desktop.
I am unable to retrieve and locate the actual digital photos and videos, however. I have tried transferring data before and was able to locate it in the folder,
but this time I am not locating it.
My O.S. would not allow me to install the Olympus software needed.
I inadvertently imbedded this sentence in the answer provided by Olympus:
After transferring data there is no efficient way to copy to a file. The folder provides a "duplicate" option and then it "copies" items to "desktop" by default.
At any rate, I will keep trying to figure this out...
Re your question: "How did you "transfer" them to the Mini?"
I connect Olympus Stylus Tough to Mac Mini port with usb cable.
Did you drag and drop them?
A standard Mac right click option is duplicate. It will duplicate what you click on, a file or folder.
So just what did you do?
Copy & Paste won't work, Drag & Drop should, but with it connected have you tried opening Image Capture?
