i have a D60 with a sandisc mc and I just went to upload the pictures to my computer and for some reason it wont. Normally I plug the camera via usb, then clip "open folder to view it's files" then drag and drop to my external hd, this time I couldn't. Since I couldn't use my normal route, I tried utilizing my Nikon transfer software. It would transfer them over, but when I went to view them it had like a safe with a key icon and I couldn't do anything with them. Never asked for a pw, never gave me a preview........nada! I have alternatively tried taking my MC out and use it in a card reader and that wont work . Also, when I click on the file(s) to view them it opens my Nero. No effing clue wtf that is doing. Has anyone experienced this before, if so what was the fix?

I attached a SS so you can see wtf I am talking about

Thanks!

 

why are your files in NEF? usually images are jpg.... I would to uninstall the Nikon software....


if that dose not work give this a try...

Nikon Imaging | Global Site | NEF Codec Download

 

Looks like you're in raw format. Only certain programs can open those like the Nikon program or Adobe Photoshop. Normal windows viewer or a few other programs will not recognize that type of file. Try opening your Nikon program and loading those pics from there. Or right click the folder and open with your Nikon program. (right click< open with< choose program)

 

You sure the card isn't locked? lol

 

yes vinn, I am sure lol!

and I haven't changed any settings on my camera.....ever, that's why my pictures suck most of the time I use this thing like a point n shoot hahahaha
and i checked real quick on .NEF...Nero Encrypted File. I guess all the photos on my camera are stuck in the .NEF format...lost

 

.NEF is the default RAW format.

 

bah, i can convert them in my camera one by one...gonna take a while =/

 

this is in Tile view. I can see them as pictures in thumbnails using Adobe Photoshop. I'd just say reinstall the Nikon program that came with it, unless that has already failed.

 

I will re-install it. Thanks again for all of your help!
