I am not a Windows user either, but I know you get a choice of actions when you connect an external drive. As I do under Linux. How does the Mac see an external drive or a USB card reader? I seem to remember some choice of action on the rare occasions where I had access to one.

Yes, I've transferred over 1,000 pictures directly from my D500 into Lightroom Creative Cloud on my Mac. Lightroom CC recognizes the D500 as a 'Device' under 'Source' in the Import dialog as soon as the D500 is plugged in and powered on (make sure you have charge in the battery). Interestingly, unlike the way my Mac handled my D300s, Finder does not seem to see the D500 has a connected device, nor do I get a message about failing to eject it properly when I disconnect. I also checked Photoshop CC and Bridge CC, and neither of these seem to recognize the D500 as a connected device. Since Lightroom is the beginning of my workflow, I'm OK with the D500 not showing up anywhere else.

That will change, of course, if Lightroom stops seeing the camera. I have no explanation for why the Mac's OS would treat one camera differently from another or why the other two Adobe programs don't.

Some did say that updated LR does? Finder(File manager) doesn't see it either. When I connect to my Linux machine, the D500 is shown as a camera, with three options to open it: two of them are image programs, but the third one is to open in the file system. I have always been reluctant to let some software handle the transfer, so I always choose to open in the file system. When I do that, the folder is described as 'USB PTP Class Camera'.

I found the following in the Nikon Knowledge Base. It is dated, and does not mention the D500, but: 'PTP (Picture Transfer Protocol) is a newer protocol for image transfer that can be used with Windows XP (Home/Professional) and Mac OS X. Most recent COOLPIX cameras and the D100 / D200 / D300/ D300S / D700 / D3/ D3S and D3X offer PTP compatibility, the PTP system will become the future standard protocol and will offer camera control capability from a PC. No drive letter is created.' Can be found. Maybe you need to update some software JC Some cameras, some lenses, some computers.

I have a new toy: a Nikon D5100 DSLR, and am eager to share a tiny tip. I’ll save the rationalizing and editorializing for a later post 🙂 My previous camera (an Olympus C-8080) supported the USB mass storage protocol, which means that, as soon as you connected it to a Mac or PC and turned it on, it would show up as a new drive on the desktop. From there, you could simply drag and drop files into your favorite location on your HD. Of course, on the Mac, you could also set iPhoto or Image Capture to launch upon connection and take care of transferring files, but this was strictly optional. My Macbook Pro is configured to not open any application when a camera is connected, and I want it to stay that way!

Well, the D5100 does not support the USB mass storage protocol. However, this does not seem to be explicitly documented. The manual simply states that, in order to transfer pictures, you “need to” install the software that comes with the camera. Once you do that, as soon as you plug in the D5100 and turn it on, something called “Nikon Transfer 2” is launched, and you can use its ominously gray and most unMaclike UI to transfer photos and movies. Besides offending my aesthetic sensibility, this is inconvenient: what if you need to transfer photos from your camera to a friend’s computer, but do not have the install disk with you?

Well, not to worry. The D5100 supports the so-called protocol. Nikon Transfer 2 merely talks to the D5100 using PTP. However, you can use any PTP-speaking software instead! In particular, iPhoto and Image Capture on the Mac work just fine!

Bottom line: you do not need to install any Nikon software, unless of course you require it for other reasons. Connect the camera and turn it on.

If you have iPhoto configured to launch whenever a camera is plugged in, iPhoto will in fact launch and will transfer your files as usual. If your Mac is configured so nothing launches when you plug in a camera, then manually launch either iPhoto or Image Capture, and again they will work just fine.

Incidentally, to choose which app to launch when a camera is plugged in (or, to ensure that no app is launched at all), you can use either iPhoto (look in Preferences) or Image Capture (look at the drop-down menu in the bottom left corner of the main window). This may be handy if, for instance, you installed the Nikon Transfer 2 software as I did, but no longer want to see it when you plug in your camera. As far as I can tell, there is no “centralized” way to change this setting (e.g., in System Preferences). Hi — and thanks for the useful post! My question relates to transferring video files from the D5100: I have removed the SD card from the camera and put it into the slot on my 15″ MacBook Pro running OS 10.6.8.

I navigate to the card in the finder where I see a DCIM folder with all the still photo files, and a file called NIKON001.DSC — but no sign anywhere of video files. I can transfer the video files using Nikon Transfer 2, but I want to be able to drag and drop them into a folder without having to use the Nikon software. It seems that the video files are somehow hidden from the finder — is there a way of making them visible?

So my Macbook will not recognize my d5100. It worked before, but today I moved all my iphoto library to an EHD, and whether that is plugged in or not, my computer won’t recognize my device. Not with image capture, the nikon software, iphoto or Lightroom. I’ve tried changing to all of the other ones in the preferences option in image capture, I’ve tried several different cables to see if it was that, used different USBs, plugged different things into the USBs and they’ve all worked.

I’m starting to think it must be a setting on my camera, but I can’t find anything online, this page is the closest to an answer I’ve come. Oh and yes, my camera IS on 😉 Thank you so much I really hope you can help me!
