macbookpro doesn't see ipod touch 5
I want to get the photos and videos off my ipod onto my computer. My computer doesn't "see" the ipod. iTunes sees it but doesn't give me options for the camera.
I've searched but can only find ways to move pics and videos via wireless connection (not finding the app on/for my 10.6.8) or the cloud. I want to just plug it into my computer and drag them over. Seems like the easier things get, the harder they get.
Advice?
