I just updated to OS10.15.2, and now Image Capture won't work when I transfer photos from my Nikon camera to my iMac. Image Capture "sees" the camera, but photos won't download. Everything worked fine before I updated the OS. Help!
Hi again Keith. Well, this is very interesting. I tried again this morning to download using Image Capture -- no luck. Then, on your recommendation I tried Photos, and it did work. Well, that was good news, but I still want to continue to download raw files directly to my own personal filing system using Image Capture. So ... just for the heck of it I went to Image Capture again, and Voila! it worked. The app opened normally with the two small icons on the lower left, which had been missing previously.
Fantastic! Thank you very much, Cheers from Walter
The system depends on additional drivers to support RAW formats. It could be that one of the recent updates loaded the driver to your system. See https://www.nikonimgsupport.com/eu/BV_article?articleNo=000004911&configured=1&lang=en_GB
In some cases, I had to use a third party software package to convert RAW formats for some cameras into TIFF files that GIMP and the Mac software could use. If you go into System Report in About This Mac, you will see an entry marked Raw Support. This will show the software drivers that you have loaded on your system.
Well, Photos uses Image Capture under the hood, so if that works, it must be a setup issue.
What happens when you insert the SD card into the SD card slot?
Does Photos open and show you any images?
Thanks for your suggestion, however my Nikon D850 uses XQD card.
Yes, Photos will work, but I prefer to download photos raw direct to hard drive
Except that even without raw support the camera can still *download* the images, it just can't *view* them.
