To do this, you will need to perform the following steps: Quit the program using the camera. Open Terminal and run the following command (supply your password when prompted, but remember it will not show). This is unfortunately a common issue with MacOs, it should be fixable by restarting your Mac. If that doesn't work then it's a hardware issue. If it happens again there is a quick fix using the terminal, just close everything, open terminal and ty. My camera does not work when I connect to Adobe's rooms but camera works fine with other software. Even though I suspected my old camera was working fine, yesterday I went ahead and bought a new camera. I thought perhaps my webcam software may have been a problem, so I bought a different type camera with different software. If you see the dreaded ‘No camera connected' or ‘No camera available' message appear as you're using your Mac - whether it's Photobooth or Facetime - don't w.

Why won't my MacBook Pro recognize my Nikon camera? - 1

I tried multiple USB cords and on both ports, it works with my Canon Powershot fine, but won't show up when I plug in my Nikon D40.

Also I was taking pictures and when I went to upload them into my computer magically everything was lost? I had hundreds of pictures in there and I know for a fact I did not do any deleting. Now when I turn it on it tells me I need to format the card. What's going on?

What are you attempting to do?

If you are attempting to copy image files from your camera to your computer, you need to remove the memory card from the camera and insert it into your Apple computer. Use Finder to copy all the images from the card to a new file folder you name for the subject/location and date so you can find the images years later

If when you have your card in the card reader, the card shows empty or is said it needs to be formatted (do NOT format any of your cards using your Apple computer)

Download a free image recovery program like the Transcend RecoveRx and using it, recover the images that have become corrupted on your memory card

If all you need to do is copy photos from the camera to the computer, you don't need to fix that issue. Get a cheap USB card reader and use that to connect the camera's memory card directly to the computer's USB slot then use Finder to do the copying to know exactly where you put the photos and to be sure the quality does not change during the process.

I suspect, unfortunately, that you have not been following the explicit instructions (page 55 of the manual), which says the order of connection is computer ON, switch camera OFF, attach USB cord to both devices, switch camera ON. The software on the MBP (iPhoto or Photos, depending on the age of the MBP) will detect the connection and allow you to import photos.
The alternative is to take the SD card out of the camera (switch the camera OFF first!) and put it straight into the slot on the MBP. Again, iPhoto/Photos will detect the pictures directly. Before you remove the card, it is vital to use the software Eject in Finder. I suspect that you have not done that, which is why the card is now scrambled. Don't try and write anything to the card. Use a file recovery program to retrieve the missing pictures first, and then reformat the card in the camera, NOT in the computer.
