I'm trying to get photos off a Nexus 5 and into OSX. When I plug it in, it says "connected as a media device" on the device screen, but no USB drive shows up in Finder, no new folder shows up in /Volumes
, and neither Image Capture nor Picasa see it as a camera.
How can I connect the Nexus 5 as a USB device?

You can use Mac's Image Capture after setting your Nexus 5 USB connection to Camera Mode. To do it do the following:
Now if you open Image Capture with your Nexus 5 plugged you will be able to preview and import your pictures and videos.
