cameras not loading in leopard

[excalibur313]

I just upgraded an ibook to leopard and now when I try to use iphoto, the camera never shows up either on the desktop or in iphoto. I have tried both cameras I have: a nikon and a sony. Does anyone have any suggestions of where to go next? Where exactly are the drivers for cameras located? Thanks for your help!

So what do you all think? I did delete unnecessary print drivers after installing leopard. (Folders in printer of companies I didn't have printers to.) Do you think that could have screwed it up?

Sorry I can't help but I don't think you deleting printer drivers would be the cause.

Try deleting preferences for iPhoto. That should take you to main screen after hooking up cameras ("Do you want to...")

If they don't show up in Finder, I don't think fiddling with iPhoto would help at all. If you connect a USB drive, does it show up in Finder? If it does, at least you can use a card reader to access your photos.

Oooh good call! So it doesn't even show up in disk utility and neither does a flash drive. Is there a good way to fix this or do I have to format?
