I have a Nikon D1X and in attempting to connect the firewire connection my camera will not power on. I have view others with the same problem but have been unable to determine a solution

Fire wire is old and never competed with USB. They may be able to transfer data, but you probably fried your camera. Possibly due to older USB format.

I assume you're asking for a manual, as in your other two questions.

You may download a free copy of the manual from here. If you must have a printed copy, you may order one from here.

Hi Lynn,
I'm also facing the same problem with my D1x and I wanted to know if you were able to find a solution. I'd be grateful for any help.

Consider NOT connecting your camera to your computer.

The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.

Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use Nikon Transfer or any other photo cataloging program.

If you insist on using the USB connection, does Nikon Transfer recognize the camera?

Hi, great mystake you connect usb in a firewire conector.Contact Nikon Service.

The D1x has a 2GB limit. It will not "see" and 8GB card.

Yes. Make sure you specify Nikon when you order/purchase the unit.

either bad lcd or software corruption.

more likely a loose connection on the back side (internal) connections on the battery contacts
