Don't want iPhoto to Open and other questions
Whenever I connect my camera to the usb cable iPhoto opens up and I don't want it to... it takes forever as I have over 5000 pictures and I get the spinning rainbow wheel..
So, any suggestions as to how to have iPhoto ONLY open when I want to open it?
any suggestions as to how to speed it up short of deleting pictures?
Can iPhoto 5.0.4 be upgraded to a newer version by a quick download or do I have to purchase all the upgrades?

1. Go to Image Capture in your Applications Folder. Use the Preferences to that app to decide what happens when you connect a camera.
2. Some possibilities: More RAM, you don't say how much you have.
Try Rebuild the library: Hold down the Command and Option keys, and open iPhoto
Also, how big is your HD, and how much free space on it?
iPhoto 6 saw a big improvement in speed over v5. Though, again, this will depend on your Hardware.
3. Updates (i.e. bug fixes etc) such as from 5.0 to 5.0.1 are free but Upgrades (new features) such as from v5 to v6 require that your purchase the iLife Package. They cannot be downloaded.

Don't want iPhoto to open automatically when camera is attached
How can I get iPhoto to quit opening when I have a camera attached to the computer. I don't use this program for editing photos, not do I download photos to it and so don't want it to take five minutes to open every time I connect my camera or iPhone.
Open iPhoto.
Go to iPhoto > Preferences > General > "Connecting camera opens:" and choose "No application".
If you don't see that option then perhaps you are not using iPhoto '09. Go the the iPhoto menu > About iPhoto and check the version. Should be 8.1.2. -
Don't want IPhoto to open when I plug in camera
Where can I set Iphoto to NOT auto launch when I plug in USB camera? I would rather just preview first and then import the few I want to save. Yes, I can just quit Iphoto but that's dumb.
Open the Image Capture application in the Applications folder and turn off the option to have iPhoto open when a camera is connected in Image Capture's preferences.

Sorry, I don't understand this - you don't want Adobe [Reader] not to open when doing what? On what operating system? -
Somehow I received a free movie which I didn't want. It started to download automatically when I opened iTunes. I don't want it to download and can't stop it. I have other cds that I would like to download but this movie is in the way. Help
it's best to just let it download, then delete once it is on your computer.

I rarely use the camera on the iPhone and would prefer that iPhoto did not open and ask to download pictures every time I sync. Is there someway to turn off this automatic feature?

As has been correctly pointed out by others you can keep iPhoto from launching whenever any camera is attached, including the iPhone. However, that's a pain if you actually use a camera with your Mac and use iPhoto to manage it. Since you don't use the camera on the iPhone very often you may not realize that if you just delete any pictures currently in the iPhone's Camera Roll then iPhoto will not launch.
If you still want those pictures but don't want iPhoto launching every time, just let iPhoto import them to your computer (choose the option to delete them when you're done!) and make an "iPhone photos" folder within iPhoto. Put any pictures you want to appear on your iPhone (including ones you have taken using the iPhone camera) into this folder. Setup iTunes to sync that folder to your iPhone. The process can even be automated using smart folders.
Now you will only be asked to sync when you have new photos on the iPhone. And you'll always have a permanent record of the photos in iPhoto. -

My ipod screen is cracked and i can't sync my ipod to itunes because it is locked with a password and i can't enter the password because the heat sensor is messed up on the ipod becasue of the screen and i don't want to restore it and lose everything. What can i do?!
All you can do is to restore and thus erase the iPod unless you can get a data recovery company to preserve the data.
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

This is a stupid question but I needed to ask because I don't want to go there and not being able to buy it, but can I get the iPhone 5 brought straight there when I go to an apple store?
And I meant go to the apple store physically without preordering it online, and I meant the Southampton one. So could I just stroll in apple store and buy a iPhone 5 in Southampton apple store and buy the iPhone 5 straight away? Because I didn't want to have to wait? I just want to go in and buy it and go out with it, if you guys get what I mean? And felipeV if it is in stock could I just buy it and leave with my iPhone 5?

Can I insert a memory card into my Macbook Pro? I tried, and it does not go in on its own, I don't want to force it and get it stuck!! Help!
Maybe the wrong port or the wrong kind of memory card? You didn't say what version/year of Macbook Pro you have. Below is a photo of the newest one.
Red oval = USB port. It is to the left of the headphone jack.
Blue oval = SDXC card port. Is your card an SDXC card?

I was using IPhoto looking at creating a Book when I uploaded the book for purchasing the site froze. I stopped the upload turned off computer and when I restarted the computer IPhoto dissappeared. I called Apple and the lady talked me through restoring IPhoto. She found it in the trash.It worked fine for a day or two, I uploaded more photos from Nikon camera closed IPhoto and now it won't open. The App Store trys to open it but it times out and won't connect.
When I double click on IPhoto to open and look at my photos the APP store trys to open it. I never had this issue before. What do I do?Try dragging a photo to the desk top, highlight it and press COMMAND I this will open the info window, in the drop down menu "open with" select either preview, or other, then select iPhoto. Preview is the default.
Then click "Change All"
Hope this helps -
I have completed migration, is it possible to merge the two account now? or a short cut to share information? I don't want to log in and out each time I want to see my old data.
No, the camera connection kit only supports the copying of photos and videos to the Photos app, it doesn't support copying content off the iPad. For your second camera instead of the SD reader part of the kit, does the iPad to camera cable not work with it for direct transfer to the iPad ?
For Lightroom and Nikon software again no - you can only install apps that are available in the iTunes app store on your computer and the App Store app on the iPad, 'normal' PC and Mac (OS X) software are not compatible with the iPad (iOS). There are some apps that perform fairly basic editing functions that are available in the store, but nothing as sophisticated as, for example, Lightroom.
