Mac can't 'see' trail camera.

Hi,

I've purchased a Toguard H70 trail camera which does the job well until it comes to downloading images. When connecting to my Mac via supplied USB cable the camera doesn't come up on the 'Locations' area of finder. Nor can it be found in iPhoto.

The camera displays MSDC on its built in screen which is apparently what it's supposed to do to show it has connected. There doesn't seem to be any software downloads available to enable the connection. Any help gratefully received.

Open Image Capture in your Applications folder and see if it can recognize the images on the cameras card.

If not, try removing the camera card (which looks like a micro SD card) from the camera, put the card in a micro SD to SD adapter, then put that into your iMac's SD card slot, or optionally get and connect an external USB card reader and put the micro SD card into it.
