Did you simply copy the whole directory over or was the problem something else?Finally got it working. using the 6ft cable from Nikon and a USB 15 ft extension . Although I got a 1 ft cable to work also with extension. All USB 3 though.

I think you will find the HDMI cable will only send an uncompressed video signal to a recording device, TV screen or TV monitor.
I don't think it will send a still picture when the camera is in Live View which I guess is what you are thinking.

Sorry to confuse you Ben. As I see it there are two things here.Bit confused Nigel, when tethered will the external screen show the live view feed or not? i.e. will I be able to focus on an external screen and adjust polarisation, etc when shooting tethered?
I don't mind running LV in the nikon software and just using C1 to watch a folder if that helps. I need to be able to use LV for focusing, composition and polarisation when tethered as the camera will be on a copy stand and the viewfinder inaccessible.
Ok - another weird one - I got Camera Control installed and used it in trial mode. The camera connects fine and it works as expected but when I try to go to the directory - /Library/Application Support/Nikon/Camera Control Module - there is no Camera Control Module directory - only ViewNX and CaptureNX directories?1. Install Nikon Camera Control Pro 2
2. Find the file Type0006 Module.bundle, Type0007 Module.bundle, AND fileLibNkPTPDriver.dylib from:
/Library/Application Support/Nikon/Camera Control Module
Thank you Steen - I had a lot of fun writing that one, it is such a joy getting back to proper tethering and to Capture Pilot on the iPad.
So far it's apparently too much to ask for when using a D800/E, Ben.
When you ask Capture One to show Live View it says: "The Selected Camera Does Not Support Live View", see Tim's excellent blog post about it here: Tim Ashley Photography | Capture One tethering with D800
I just tried it out on my Windows 7 based pc and I get the same message as Tim gets on his Mac.
