Problem:

iPhoto on my PowerBook G4 suddenly does not recognize photos from my Nikon S700 awaiting import. The import screen does not appear.

<HOWEVER>

All is fine/dandy with my other Macs - import screen appears and importation begins flawlessly, so the problem is not with the camera
but rather the PowerBook's iPhoto.

Any ideas?

Have you previously imported images from this particular camera to this particular mac?

Is iPhoto up -to-date?

If not, it might not recognize your camera, as the profile for it is missing in iPhoto.

Also: have you tried open iPhoto, and instruct it manually to import?

(I need to say I never used iPhoto but I use experience from other photo software)

Check the iPhoto preferences. What does it say what iPhoto does when you connect a camera?

Maybe confirm that your USB port is actually working.

What does Image Capture have to say about your camera?
