New Member with Camera Connection Kit Problem

[paddie]

I have had my iPad 2 since he end of Ocotber. I am new to the ipf. I bought a CCK today and it does not work.

I connected my Nikon D3000 with the USB adaptor and nothing happens. I have an 8gig SD card. I tried the card reader adapter and again nothing happens.

I did a full power off and back on and still no success. Does anyone have any ideas? Besides a possible defect with the CCK or my iPad has anyone tried anything else?

Thanks!

Hi...
Dumb question... Was the camera turned on?

 

[paddie]

Always good to ask, it was turned on...

If you have a smaller SD card, format it in the camera, take a couple pictures and give it a try. That will at least eliminate whether it's the size of the media.

If it does not work I'd give Apple a call. If nothing else they may let you return it for a refund if your camera is not supported (though I don't know why it wouldn't be). Or perhaps they will exchange it on the assumption that it is defective.

Thanks everyone for the welcome, tips and links. I am also wondering if the manufacture date on the CCK may be the issue. I don't recall the manufacture date of the iPad 2, but the CCK looks like it is January.
