Why is the D90 Nikon Camera not able to download pictures to a computer?
Data Transfer
The D90 has one design flaw: when plugged into a computer, it does not always appear directly as a hard drive, as other Nikon cameras do.
There is no USB menu option for PTP or mass storage. It s stuck in PTP, meaning if you want to plug the D90 to your computer, that you’ll need certain software or operating systems to recognize it.
it works fine on some computers, but doesn’t work on mine unless I futz with software, which I won’t do.
You may need to buy a separate SD card reader, or gamble installing Nikon’s always buggy software on your computer to download directly from the D90 if Apple’s Image Capture or other software doesn’t do it for you.
I just use a built in USB2 card reader, saves wear and tear on your precious camera and are so cheap, mine cost less than £10.00, why would you use anything else?
The new ones can use SDHC cards too.
I’ve seen SDHC USB2 card readers for a £1.00 at computer fairs.
