How do I get it to not launch iPhoto when camera connects?

Is there a way to set my Mac up to not launch iPhoto when I plug a camera or card reader into it? I need to just copy the pics off to work with them in Photoshop, it it want to launch iPhoto every time. My iPhoto is really full and that takes a good 2 minutes to do, completely killing my Mac in the process. Any help would be great.
iPhoto 5.0, Mac OS 10.4.2
Thanks -Gregory

Thank Peter.
I have never even opened that program before. Why isn't this option in iPhoto? What a crazy place to put that.
Again, THANK YOU!!!
My life is going to be sooo much easier.

Thanks Bill for your reply.
I am using Acrobat XI, just downloaded it and Word 2003. There are no punctuations on my form, I just hit return to go to the next lines.
I put in a little square check box and that is also causing issues. I checked to make sure the field codes are off on the original word doc.
I did try from the printer to save and adobe and I get the same codes. Other people that I work with are able to get my document to save correctly in acrobat with the same versions of word and XI.
It has to be some small setting on my computer.

How can I get ExportPDF to not add hyphens when converting to Word?

I am using the online service ExportPDF, at https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf .It automatically adds hyphens in the resulting Word document for all words that were auto-hyphenated at line ends in the original PDF. How can I get it to convert these as whole words?
I know that for example in InDesign there is a setting in the Preferences menu and changing it from Retain Flowing Text to Retain Page Layout should remove such extra hyphens upon exporting. But I don't find any such settings for the ExportPDF service online.
It matters because I frequently need to cut and paste converted text from the Word documents into other documents with different formatting, and the hyphens, which are now hard characters, come out all wrong.
Can anyone help with this?

Hi liquidandrew,
There is no setting in ExportPDF to change the output, other than choosing a language for OCR. ExportPDF does it's best to keep the converted document true to the original, so it sounds like it's maintaining the hyphens where they appear in the PDF. Could you do a quick find/replace in Word to remove the hyphens? However, you would run the risk of removing hyphens where you want them, such as in compound words.
Best,
Sara

How do you get OS X to use iPhoto on camera import instead of Photos?

Okay, have iPhoto 9.6.1 and can open iPhoto and all... but whenever I connect my camera to the computer to import photos, it always defaults to Photos. I want it to default to iPhoto. Is there a way to get it to stop using Photos by default? Can't rename or delete the Photos app. Have no Photos Library so I don't want to have to exit out of Photos and launch iPhoto every time I want to import new photos. I just want Photos to stay out of the picture entirely. Let iPhoto do what it used to do and stop trying to hijack everything.

PMiles:
Hard links are used in Photos to prevent duplication of media. You can verify that yourself by exporting some of your library to a small USB drive, enough to more than half fill the drive, then using Option Open to create a Photos library from the exported one. You'll note everything fits on the small drive. The use of hard links (multiple names for the same file) is what allows Time Machine to keep many many dates worth of backups without duplicating files that have not changed between dates.
Also, here's a quote from David Pogues's review: https://www.yahoo.com/tech/everything-worth-knowing-about-switching-to-os-x-1101 29491789.html
"What’s wild is that Photos accesses your existing photo library. It doesn’t convert the original photos into some new format. You’ll be able to switch back and forth among the three programs — iPhoto, Aperture, Photos — without having to duplicate any files or use up any more disk space.
There is one big catch, however: Your library splits at the moment you install Photos.
After you first run Photos, when you edit, add, or delete any pictures, those changes show up only in the one program you’re using at the time. New pictures you add to Photos appear only in Photos; new pictures you add to iPhoto appear only in iPhoto, and so on. (You can easily export/import them if necessary.) Same thing with edits you make: They’re saved only in the program where you make those changes."

How do I turn off preference to open iPhoto when camera is connected

How do I turn off the preference to open iPhoto when a camera is connected? Especially when an iPad or iPhone is connected. I've tried trashing the iPhoto.plist and lockfile but it still turns on.

That's in the iphoto Preferences. Connecting Camera open... And just select 'No Application'

How do I get CS6 to not distort color when using Lion and printing from Epson R2880?

Ever since I up-graded to CS5 , the color has been distorted. It is not an Epson Lion problem because printing from preview or iPhoto the color is perfect.
Adobe has known about this problem since January 23, 2012. Their help people have taken over my computer for hours at a time and not been able to discover the source of the problem
I thought they might have fixed it with CS6 but no luck I chose use CS4 settings because CS4 had worked.
I printed using Printer Manages Color and color matching, epson color. I selected the correct media. The prints came out dark. The yellows turned green and the greens turned blue/green, reds became dull and blues a bit dark.
This is most upsetting because I cannot afford to buy a new printer and ink. Also I should not have to buy new equipment because Adobe cannot make their product work correctly.

If the printer prints colors accurately from Lion apps,which it does, then the problem is in Adobe.
Uh...ok...then the REST of the FREE world is going down the tubes because obviously, Adobe has screwed up?
Some of us are using LR4 and CS6 to print and getting accurate and excellent results with Lion (10.7.3) so the question begging for an answer is why can't you?
Read very carefully what Chris wrote...the odds are REAL GOOD you are NOT using the correct settings...but since you don't bother to show or explain the EXACT settings you are using when printing, we'll never know. Will we?
If the vast magority of the user base is NOT having an issue, to what do you attribute the disconnect? User Error is the single most likely result...
You want help? Or do you want to argue?
I know a little bit about printing and I seem to be able to print with zero issues on a wide variety of Epson printers...you wanna place blame or do you wanna learn how to fix the problem? (clue, the odds are it isn't Adobe nor Epson leading to the problems, it's you bud).

Macbook not opening iphoto when I connect my digital camera

For some reason, my Macbook Pro has stopped recognising my camera when I connect it via USB. Mine's a Sony Cybershot and I also tried with my husband's Canon DSLR just to check it wasn't the camera.
I recently did an SMC reset because my USB port wasn't working, but that's now remedied and all working fine. Could that have knocked out a setting for iphoto opening automatically when I connect the camera? It used to open automatically and ask to start downloading, but now, nothing.
Thanks
Vicki

How can i get music to not show up on my phone that i dont want there

how can i get music to not show up on my phone that i dont want there

If the app is G-Toolkit and you have a Gmail app on your iPhone, delete the Gmail app. Apparently the G-Tool kit is tied to a Gmail app. From searching the web my impression is that G-Toolkit is not spyware and is from a legitimate company that produces app for several platforms.

How can I get missing contacts, notes, calendar dates and reminders that are just on my old iphone onto the iCloud for transfer to my new iPhone upgrade?

Dear wise & wondeful people:
How can I get missing contacts, notes, calendar dates and reminders that are just on my old iphone onto the iCloud for transfer to my new iPhone upgrade? Half of my contacts, notes, ect. were on my iCloud so have happily moved to my new iPhone but the rest are completely resistant. For example, on my iCloud I have 14 missing contacts starting with the letter A alone, however they are happily viewable on my old iPhone 4S and won't budge over into the iCloud.
There are also 3 notes missing yet still acessible on my onld iPhone 4S, the list goes on.
Your help would be most appreciated. Thank you so much.

Will someone please help me?

My email did transfer over.
Thank you.

First click on the Apple > Logout and Log back in or restart the unit see if that solves it. If it doesn't do you have a backup of your system prior to upgrade? Check Disk Utility and see how much space is being used to make sure the drive wasn't somehow erased.

How can I get the link not to override my style sheet formatting?

I have an html page with text that has a style sheet applied
to it. When I insert a link into parts of the formatted text, the
style sheet formatting is lost in the linked text (the text for
mylars, shapes and number shapes becomes smaller: see code below).

Show us this rule --> bodyheader20pt?
Also, having this in your three anchor tags -
style="text-decoration:none" -
will prevent your anchors from displaying any stylesheet
style for
text-decoration.

How can I get the galaxy note 4 to ring longer?

how can I get the galaxy note 4 to ring longer?

kick143
Making sure you answer your calls on times is important. All phones have a standard amount set per rings before a call goes to voice. We are unable to change settings to make the phone ring longer. Sometimes purchased or recorded ringtones can cause the ringing on your end to seem shorter. Do you currently have a customized ringtone on your phone?
