How to prevent Aperture from launching when iPhone is docked.

How can I stop Aperture from launching and trying to import the photos from my iPhone every time I put the iPhone in its dock? It is annoying !

image capture (the program) is recognizing your iPhone as a camera ... you have it set to open Aperture when a camera is connected, yes ???
well ... the only way to turn it off (to the best of my knowledge) would be to open image capture and set it to do nothing ... that is when any camera/card/iPhone is connected image capture does nothing ... you will manually have to open aperture and import from your cards/cameras ...

How to prevent iTunes from launching when iPad is connected?

I don't want iTunes 11.0.1 to launch every time I connect my iPad (3rd generation, running iOS 6.0.1) to my Mini. I want to decide if I want iTunes, and then, if I do, launch it manually. How may this be accomplished?
Notes:
1. iTunes .. Preferences .. Devices ==> "Prevent ... from syncing automatically" is UNchecked.
2. (in iTunes while connected) iPad .. Summary .. Options ==> "Open iTunes when this iPad is connected" is UNchecked.
3. When iTunes auto-launches, it does NOT sync. It "mounts" the iPad and then sits idle.
TIA for any ideas,
Mark

With the iPad connected and (at least in my case) iTunes NOT running, start the program "Image Capture" (mine is version 6.1). In the lower left will be a label "Connecting this iPad opens:" and below that label is a drop-down box which, in my case, was set to iTunes (don't ask me how), and I have since changed to "No application".
Gee, that was obvious.

How to stop iTunes from launching when iPhone is connected?

I have the "Disable automatic syncing for all iPhones and iPods" checked in my Windows version if iTunes. But when I try to charge my iPhone, it still comes up. Is there any way to disable this. Windows also detects a camera device. I do all my iPhone stuff at home on my Mac, but at work I have a PC and I want to be able to charge my phone using the USB cable. But I don't want iTunes to launch or the PC to detect the camera device. Any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks

SteveFLHTCI:
Here's what I did using Windows Vista Home Premium. First, when I connected my iPhone, an AutoPlay dialog box popped up asking me what I wanted to do. Towards the bottom, there was some blue text that stated "Set AutoPlay defaults in Control Panel" and I clicked on it. When the Control Panel AutoPlay applet opened up, I scrolled down towards the bottom and found a list of devices which included "Apple iPhone." From there, I selected "Take No Action" from the drop-down list and have lived happily ever after.
Hope that helped. Good luck.

How can I prevent iPhoto from launching when I insert an SD card

I recently upgraded to a new iMac retina and am having trouble disabling iPhoto from launching when an SD card is inserted.
I have gone to iPhoto setting and disabled iPhoto from launching when a camera is connected.
I have also gone into image capture and selected no application as the hidden option for SD card actions when inserted.
Unfortunately the issue persists... two questions: can I do a terminal level disable to prevent iPhoto from launching or can I remove iPhoto from my computer?

Have you tried this?
Open the Image Capture app
Select your SD Card
Click the little widget in the bottom right corner of the window
Select the program to launch, or "No application"
it worked for me

How to stop Aperture starting up when iPhone is plugged in?

Hi all,
silly question... but Aperture keeps opening whenever my iPhone is plugged in. Does anyone know how to stop this? Not a big deal... but its getting annoying!
Thanks in advance!
Lil

And, if you want Aperture to launch when you connect your camera, but not when you connect your iPhone, open Image Capture when your iPhone is connected, highlight your iPhone in the sidebar, and select the No Application option in the lower left-hand corner where it says "connecting this iPhone opens"
You can have different options for each device.

How do I prevent Elements from launching when I connect a flash drive?

When I connect a flash drive or SD card to my computer, Photoshop Elements automatically launches a component to save and organize my photos. I already have a system in place to organize my pictures so do not want to use the one from Elements. How do I prevent the program from launching automatically?

On Windows go to the Control Panel >> AutoPlay
And change your settings to “Always Ask” for photos and videos and save.
If your camera, phone or other devices are listed at the bottom you can also change those settings.

HT4859 how to get pictures from icloud when Iphone is stolen

how to pictures and music from Icloud when phone is stolen

Photo stream photos can only be access from another iOS device or computer signed into your iCloud account with photo stream enabled. Camera roll photos (and videos) are contained in the iPhone backup, assuming you have one. If you backed up to your computer using iTunes, you can extract the photos from the backup using 3rd party software such as iPhone Backup Extractor. If you backed up to iCloud, your these photos can only be accessed by restoring the backup to another iOS device.
Music isn't included in the backup; it should be in your iTunes library. Music purchased from iTunes can be redownloaded again for free (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519), but music from other sources, if not in your iTunes library, cannot be recovered.

Prevent iPhoto from opening when iPhone is connected?

Does anyone know if there is a way to keep iPhoto from opening when my iPhone is connect BUT do the opposite when my digital still cam is connected? I like having iPhone auto-launch for my canon cam, but not when I connect the iPhone.

I believe I've come across an article by someone who set up a script to run when a camera is connected, and the script detects what kind of camera and then launches or not launches iPhoto as desired. Yeah, here it goes:
http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20080301133957211
Seems overkill to me---I find it easy enough to manually launch iPhoto when I connect a camera, but hey, to each their own.

Stop Photos from Launching when Iphone plugged it

I would like to stop the Photos application from launching every time I plug my iPhone into my computer. There was a way to do it with iPhoto but I cannot seem to find a way with this new Photo app. Has anyone figured it out or have I missed finding the instruction somewhere?
Thanks

With your iPhone connected, let Photos launch one more time.
Enter the key combination ⌥⌘S to reveal the sidebar.
In the sidebar select your iPhone.
Disable the checkmark "Open Photos for this device":
Then quit Photos.
Do the same in Image Capture, if necessary.
In Image Capture:
The option has to be set for each device individually. With the device connected to USB, you have to click the tiny disclosure triangle in the lower left corner of the sidebar to reveal the option.

How to prevent computer from sleeping when downloading Lion from the recovery partition?

Hello,
I just got a new MacBook Pro that came with Lion. I'm reinstalling from the recovery partition and I'm on the downloading additional components stage. It has 3 hours to go and the computer keeps going to sleep. How can I prevent this? I don't want to have to babysit the computer for 3 more hours.
Thanks.

Looking for an answer to this question now. Did you find one? I'm about an hour into a 6+ hour reinstall of Mountain Lion from the Recovery partition on my MacBook Pro. So I can't change the sleep corners or caffenate it or do much of anything but wait. I want to go to bed and let it install overnight, but I assume it will go to sleep, and that will kill the download. It there any way to prevent it from sleeping now?
Even trying to think of something I can put on the trackpad to trick it into thinking I'm touching it.
Maybe ill put it under my dog, and her movements will keep it awake? Thinking outside the box here.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

Preventing iTunes from launching when connecting iPhone?

I just want to put my iPhone in the cradle to charge it, not sync it or open any apps or anything else. Just charging. I have turned off the "automatic sync" feature in iTunes, so at least it doesn't sync every time i put my phone back, but I would really like to be able to not having to close iTunes all the time. It was easy fixing the auto-launch for iPhoto - is there a similar (or any, for that matter) that can fix the same thing for iTunes? Thx.
(BTW, I have all the software upgrades possible.)

There is a couple ways to accomplish this
1. In the Summary screen uncheck automatically sync. Keep in mind you will now how to tell it when to sync.
2. If you go to iTunes Preferences, then Syncing. You and Disable Syncing of any devices connecting to iTunes. And you will have to manually press the button to sync
Hope this helps

Database issue prevents Aperture from launching

When I launch Aperture, I get the following error message displayed over the opening screen:
"An inconsistancy in your database has been detected. The application will now quit, relaunch, and restore your database to a consistant state. This may take some time."
Aperture will then just sit there with the error message, with no quit, relaunch or restore. This behavior is exhibited also when launching from the backup. I tried to the control-option keystroke combo for library restore, with no success. The disk passes all the Disk utility tests.
Help!!

It's Command (Apple)-Option just in case you're pressing the wrong button.
Also, check under "About This Mac" "More Info" "Software" "Frameworks" for:
ProKit v3.1
If it is not in the list, you need to follow the instructions and download on the Apple website:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301838
This has a full how to (simple but there are a couple of steps). The download link is at the bottom of the page and does not require you to purchase Final Cut Studio or anything.

How to prevent applet from InterruptedException when the page is refreshed

Hi Guys,
Is there a way we can prevent an applet from being interrupted when the user navigates away or refreshes the page ?
I am getting the below error whenever the user invokes the applet and navigates away or refreshes the frame.
My requirement is the make the applet complete it action before it is destroyed or stopped.
I am not sure if this problem is due to new java life cycle. I tried setting the legacy_lifetime=true and I got the same error or java.io.IOException when legacy_lifecycle=true

An applet cannot access the client's filesystem. So there's no worry. All the .class files come from the server, unless you're using a ClassLoader to explicitly load from a certain location in clients hd with all the necessary security permissions.

How to stop iPhoto from launching when Kodak Photo CD is inserted...

Hi-
I do not what iPhoto to launch automatically when I insert a Kodak Photo CD. I looked for a preference to stop this, but could not find anything. Can anyone help?
iPhoto 6.0.6
Mac OS 10.4.9
Thanks.

Thanks for the quick reply...
In the Image Capture General Preferences, I have "No Application" chosen to open when a camera is connected. This preferences, however, does not effect Kodak Photo CD's. iPhoto still launches.

How to preventing files from downloading when I open them

Hi there,
Is there a setting somewhere on my computer that will allow me to open files (in emails, on webpages, etc.) without first having to download them? Please help....

No.
If you are using an email client such as the Mail.app to access an email account, a message attachment must be downloaded with the message in order to open it and the same when accessing the account via webmail access using a browser.
Why is this a problem?
