Without your camera connected, open Image Capture. A window should open 
saying No Image Capture device connected.

Select the Image Capture preferences under the Image Capture menu.

Select  for When a Camera is connected, Image Capture. Or if you prefer 
use the Other option for another application. Quit Image Capture and 
connect your camera.

If that doesn't work, disconnect the camera and try another selection 
in the popup menu.

When Image capture opens, it presents a window letting you select where 
to down load the fotos, I usually download to an empty folder named New 
Pictures and then drag that only to the iView Media Pro alias.

If this still doesn't work, open Image Capture before you connect your 
camera and see what happens. It is possible your camera is just 
incompatible but let's not give up yet.

You can also check Apple support to see what they say about the problem.
