You mentioned ApplePi-Baker, so I assume a Mac.
When you burn the image to your SD, I think it will (software) eject it when done. If you pop it back in your Mac, it will mount the device (kinda).
The SD card will have 2 partitions: boot and root.
The boot partition is pretty small (like maybe 60megs, IIRC). This is a FAT partition, and the Mac can mount it. That's what you'll see if you plug it in to your Mac. The main thing people might do with that is to edit the config.txt file (which sets some boot options for the Raspberry Pi). See https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentatio...fig-txt.md
The root partition won't be viewable (without special tools) on the Mac. If you're expecting to see emulators etc., they'd be in the root partition, but you wouldn't see that.
If you can see the boot partition on your Mac, that's a pretty good sign that the image worked. I have heard of SD cards that don't work on the Pi, but I think that's unlikely.
What size SD are you using? If you have a different SD, that'd be a good thing to try. Again, if you can try it with a HDMI adapter, it's definitely worth it. Then you can unplug the Pi from the GPA and boot up using microUSB power and HDMI (which eliminates any GPA issues for the moment).
