Thumbnail images in 'icon' view on my Mac

Hi everybody,
I've been shooting with a Nikon D7100 and recently bought a D7200 as a second camera. When I shoot RAW with the D7100 and put the SD card into my iMac and open it up in 'icon' view, I see thumbnails of the images, which makes quick editing easy. On the D7200 however, I just get the same blank 'page' icons for each image. I can open up ViewNX 2 to see and select, but I prefer to just open it up on my desktop... just one less step. I've poked around my camera menu but can't find anything on this. I know that I can shoot RAW and jpeg, the latter which does give me a thumbnail with the same file number, but to save space on my card I prefer RAW only. Does anybody out there have any ideas?

Thanks!

It looks like updating to Yosemite will solve the problem.

Check your version of Apple Digital Camera raw - on a Mac, raw conversion is done by the OS, so a raw image is viewable in preview and as a thumbnail in Finder. Dedicated raw converters, like Lightroom, Bridge and Photoshop, View NX2, View NX-I and Capture NX-D make use of their own internal or plugin raw converters.

You may need to update your Apple Digital camera raw version, or update your OS to a more current version in order for the OS to convert the raw data from a D7200 camera.
