Mac does not detect the camera at all

Hello,
I just bought a Nikon Coolpix, brand new, and I've already taken some photos that I want to transfer to my Mac. I installed the CD that Nikon provides, and now the Mac can’t detect the camera at all. That is to say, once it’s connected (USB), I can't even turn on the camera. So I’m doing what I can: I turn it on first, then plug it in, but no, the camera turns off right away. I haven't found anything on the forums that could solve the problem...
Does anyone have any ideas or solutions?
Thanks everyone!

Configuration: Mac OS X / Firefox 3.5.4

    Good evening,

    It is not necessary to go through Iphoto..
    You have a small utility called "Image Capture" which is very handy.
    Otherwise, if you enable the display of connected volume icons in your desktop preferences, you can go directly through that :)

    That's all

    Best regards
