How to Connect a Nikon Coolpix to a Mac
By K.C. Winslow
Nikon Coolpix cameras include photo-transfer software compatible with Mac computers. Additionally, Coolpix cameras are compatible with iPhoto, the photo management application that is a part of the Mac OS X operating system. Regardless of which option you use to transfer photos from the camera to the computer, the method of connecting the Coolpix camera to a Mac is the same.
Step 1
Turn on the Mac computer.
Step 2
Turn off the Nikon Coolpix camera.
Step 3
Connect the USB cable included with the camera to the camera and the USB port on the Mac. The camera powers up once connected, but the camera display remains off.
