During our visit to Paris/Disneyland we took more than 200 pics. However when loading them into our mac (into Iphoto) only 85 pics popped up. When I look at the SD card the majority of the pictures are saved as jpg files with a size of 2-3MB and they are named DSC_209,... There are however also things saved as jpg files but named DQC)009 with a size of 34MB. I personnaly think that a lot of pictures are saved together in one way or another under these DQC files. Would be great if you know if I could get the missing pictures still from the card???

Based on the file size, the files in question are probably RAW, not jpg files. Nikon View NX software or Photoshop will be able to open those files. You may want to convert them to jpg files, but do keep the RAW files since they contain much more picture detail then the jpg files.

SOURCE: no images

Look in Explorer at the .jpg files on your card to make sure they have information in each file. Next, make sure your software is set to view .jpg files,i.e. Faststone Image viewer (download.com) can be set for virtually any image format. If you viewed the images on the lcd monitor they were on the card at that time. Make sure you haven't somehow protected those image files or have accidentally reformatted it.

SOURCE: i took some pics on

This is because camera will show these pictures with specific file name/ number.  You need to check camera taken picture file name/ number and change uploaded file name/ numbers as camera firmware generate it.  Please change picture file name according to camera taken picture.
let me know if further help required.

SOURCE: After upgrading to MAC OS

Hi Bob.

Problem is a well known issue between Snow Leopard and several cameras. You will need to play with installed software and setting. Here different work around.

Temprarily turn Bluetooth off. See here.

Try installing the following: Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter

If that does not work, try setting the Mac with camera mass storage in USB mode, I quote a testimonial from this forum:

"I found a workaround/solution for my issue. My camera has two USB modes: "Mass Storage (USB DIRECT-PRINT)" and "PTP (PictBridge)". I've always used PTP with my mac and everything has been fine. But apparently iPhoto on OSX 10.6 no longer likes PTP (keep in mind that Image Capture handles the camera fine in PTP mode). When I switched it to Mass Storage mode, it works fine now in iPhoto."

If still no luck, change preference to image capture, I quote:

"1) ejecting the "camera name" from the desktop. I had to do this step because I had tried to connect to iPhoto and it didn't work.
2) Going to iPhoto prefs and selecting Connecting camera opens "Image Capture" - not iPhoto.
3) Connecting the camera again. Image Capture opens.
4) In image capture selecting from the bottom left hand corner Connecting camera opens "iPhoto"
5) iPhoto magically opened and I could import and delete."

If still no luck, do a new upgrade using a combo installer, see here.

If all that does not work, contact Apple, camera is supported by Snow Leopard and they must find a solution. See: Apple - How to Contact Us.

Ensure that you try all workaround, there is no "one for all Macs" solution for this problem.


If you repute my solution helpful, then please take some times to accept the solution. Providing good repair tips requires time and skills, and your feedback is important for us.

Good luck.

Ginko.

You can move the pics to your computer first, as for some camera, if you insert a SD card, you won't find the pics on the camera hard memory.

I am plugging my cord into my computer and into my camera, I have a mac. But nothing is popping up on iPhoto so I can upload the pictures, whats wrong?

Use a card reader and download to a folder you create on your desktop. From there, you can import the pics to iPhoto. typrice_97.jpg

Need replacement installation CD (Mac version) for Lumix DMC-TZ1

The easiest way to download your pics to a Mac is to use a card reader. You can transfer the pics to a folder you create on your desktop and view them from there or import them to iphoto.

When I connect the camera the pics don't load

Does the camera show up on your desktop when you connect it? If so, just launch iPhoto. Inside iPhoto preferences, check the one that causes iPhoto to launch whenever you attach a camera, and you won't run into this behavior in the future. If the camera does not show up on your desktop, or in System Profile's USB column, then you have a bad USB cable or a bad USB port either on the camera or on your Mac.

Can't get pics to my mac computer, won't transfer.

When you get the popup from iPhoto don't click on any iPhoto buttons. Instead, click on command+tab and change to your Finder application (leaving iPhoto open in the background).

1) Create a new folder on your Desktop or in your Pictures folder. This is where you will copy your photo files.

2) Click on File, then New Finder window. Size these finder windows so you can see both of them at the same time. In the second window, go to your computer, and then to the drive that represents the memory card in your camera.

3) Drag and drop to copy the files from the camera's memory card Finder window to the new folder Finder window, dropping the files into the new folder on your computer's hard drive.

4) Use command+tab to change back to iPhoto. Cancel from the import warning window. In iPhoto click on File then Import to Library

5) In the import dialog tell iPhoto to move the photos (not to import them in their current location) so that iPhoto puts the photos in the same place it put your other photos when it imported them directly from the camera.

If you can't do all of these steps, tell me how far you got, and what happened.

Camera wont connect to mac

I've had this happen before. By chance, Do you have a CD or DVD in your Mac? Eject any disk you might have in there and try the connection again.

Camedia software for Mac

Don't use Camedia, use iPhoto. Copy the pics from the camera to the Mac and import to iPhoto. Much easier and no delay or lost photo.
