How do I change the way I get my pictures with iPhoto?

Hi everyone,
Currently i plug in my Canon Powershot SD550 camera and iPhoto opens, i can download the pictures into iPhoto directly from there. i assume it was a setting I made when i first got the new computer and I dont know how to turn it off.
However, I want to plug the camera in and move the photos from the camera to a folder on my desktop so I can name them and so on.
I will import them to iPhoto from the folder afterward.
thanks for any help you can provide

iPhoto menu ==> General ==> Connecting Camera opens ==> no application
Then you can go to the finder and copy the images to a folder and prepare them for importing into iPhoto

How do I change the way that my company name appears when googled?

How do I change the way that my company name appears when it is googled? Currently it only shows up as part of my company name followed by the website listed below and then the start of a description. I would like to make it so my entire company name show up as the title when searched. I used iWeb to create the site. Please Help! Thanks:)

Put the whole company name in the title tag...

How do I change the way the item are listed in stacks?

Hello Joel,
You have some choices available by clicking and holding on the stack for a second, and there are five sorting orders to choose from.
I picked up a tip to create an empty folder and place it in the stack, give it a fancy icon and name it 0. Then by choosing the sort order as name, that fancy icon is always at the front.

I made my apple Id a long time ago. I do not remember the answers to my security questions but when I send the questions to my email, they get sent to an old email that was deleted. How do I change the email they get sent to?

1. See my User Tip for some help: Some Solutions for Resetting Forgotten Security Questions: Apple Support Communities.
2. Here are two different but direct methods:
    a. Send Apple an email request at: Apple - Support - iTunes Store - Contact Us.
    b. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support
        and service.
3. For other queries about Apple ID see Frequently asked questions about Apple ID.

How can I change the date "taken" on individual photos in iPhoto?

How can I change the date "taken" on individual photos in iPhoto? I have some photos that were scanned and the date "taken" info displays the day the picture was scanned as opposed to the date it was actually taken. Is there some way to edit this information?

In iPhoto '11 on your Mac use the command "Photos > Adjust Date and Time" and enable the "Modify original files" option, if you want to set the date of the originals to the correct date as well.

The external hard drive must connect to your Mac using a USB or FireWire connection.
Note that the hard drive must be formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) to work correctly with the iPhoto Library and be backed up to the Time Capsule and with the backups of your Mac.
We are really talking about iPhoto uses here, so you should post in the iPhoto Support area for more details about this. The link is just below.

How do I change the way music displays podcasts on my ipad 2?

On my iPod nano, iPhone, iMac the podcasts are listed with the most recent ones at the top. On my new iPad 2 the oldest ones are listed at the top. How do I change the display settings to show the most recent ones first?
2) If I go to check my email when I'm listening to something, when I go back to the music app it shows the top of the list again, instead of showing where I was. Frustrating!!
3) Usually the menu at the bottom of the music app can be customized (for example I want "podcasts" to be one of the choices instead of "songs"). Is there any way to change this?
Thank you very much!

Goto slideshow>music your library of songs will come up choose wat song u wish to play then start slideshow.
