Since you have neglected to tell us the make and model of the tripod, this can only be a generalisation - broken down into easy steps for you.
1) unclip the Q/R plate from the tripod head.
2) screw the Q/R plate to the base of the camera, using the tripod threaded socket.
3)re-attach the Q/R plate to the tripod head.
BTW, when using the camera on a tripod, use a remote control to prevent camera movement.

I just purchased a new battery door for $15 with shipping from nikon. They sent a simple assembly diagram and I was able to replace the door in 30 minutes. I used a dremel to cut the old door off, but you dont have to do that. I got a little impatient.
Just buy the plastic piece and u can reuse the metal parts for your old battery door.

Solution
To prevent such errors from occurring, you should continue using the camera in 'Disk Drive' mode. You can then successfully access it through iPhoto or Image Capture. However, to solve the existing problem of the SD/MMC card, follow these steps:
Note: A digital camera using SD/MMC card uses different protocols in different modes so that to communicate with the Macintosh system. But it can only be accessed through Desktop, when connected in 'Disk Drive' mode.

In such situations, you are suggested to use Digital Photo Recovery products to recover them.
