Here’s how to connect GoPro Hero 5 to Mac, Step 1: Use the USB C cable to connect the GoPro to the Mac. Step 2: Then turn on the GoPro.

I have a 2019 MacBook Pro: And am plugging my GoPro Hero 8 Black into a USB 3 hub: My GoPro has firmware v02.00: And I have v1.0.220: With my camera plugged into my computer via USB-3 cord (without battery or SD card in the camera), my camera's front and rear displays indicate 'USB CONNECTED'.

We do not recommend using a USB Hub or Media Reader.

#1 - Use Quik for desktop

HEADS UP: This feature is currently supported only on the HERO7 Black or earlier cameras. Newer cameras may or may not work as expected when connected via USB cable.

If your camera is not being recognized in Quik for desktop, please refer to this article

#2 - Use an SD Adapter

If you have an SD adapter for your MicroSD card, you can insert the Micro SD card into the adapter and insert the adapter into your computer.

Open a new Finder window. Your SD card will be on the left sidebar under the 'devices' section.
Double-click on your SD card, and you should see two folders: DCIM and MISC.

Now double-click on the DCIM folder. In that, you'll see a folder named 100GOPRO. (Note - if you took more than 9999 pictures or videos, you'll see 101GOPRO, 102GOPRO, 103GOPRO, etc. folders).

From there you can drag & drop the files from your SD card to your computer.

Method #3 - Automatically with Image Capture

Image Capture allows you to:

Import files to a location of your choice
Delete files
View files before importing

Select the file(s) you want to Import and select Import, or Import All if you want to import everything.

Method #4 - Manually with Image Capture

If you do not have Image Capture set up to automatically launch when you connect your camera, you can easily do it manually.

Select the magnifying glass in the top-right of your desktop.
In the Spotlight section type either: Image Capture or iPhoto

Once the selected application opens, you can import your files just like in Method #2.

How to setup Image Capture to launch automatically

To set up Image Capture to launch automatically when you connect your camera you must first either launch Image Capture. From there it's just a matter of selecting the desired program.

In Image Capture there is a setting in the lower left called: 'Connecting this camera opens:'. It gives you the option to select No Application, iPhoto, or Image Capture. Select Image Capture.
