How to Stop iPhoto launch when iPod Touch is docked?
Each and every time I dock the iPod Touch (2nd Gen), iPhoto opens and asks if I want to import new photos. Every time!
But I already imported them and I want to keep them (screenshots made with iPod Touch image capture). So why does it keep asking?
How can I stop the automatic launch of iPhoto to ask this same question?
There are no settings in iTunes for the connected iPod Touch. There are no settings in iPhoto.
And I have reviewed past messages suggesting there is a setting in the Mac OSX app called "Image Capture" - "Down load to: Picture, Movies and Music folder" Automatic Task: set to None - but that does not work either.
What else can I do? It is VERY annoying!
Thanks & Aloha, AW
For some reason it does not work that way. You could always try turning off the ability to open iPhoto when a camera-like device is attached, using Grab.
Mind you, if they are imported into iPhoto and you sync images with the iPod touch, then you might as well delete from that folder otherwise they are duplicated on the touch.

How to stop iPhoto launch when saving pictures in Safari?
How do I stop iPhoto from automatically launching or coming to the front of the screen every time I want to save a picture I find using Safari? It's incredibly annoying that each time I click to save one, iPhoto just jumps right into my face.
Thanks!Hi Neil -
Thanks for getting back so quickly. Unfortunately this didn't do the trick.
Perhaps I should have been more specific: I'm "adding the photos" to my library. Each time I do this iPhoto launches.
Thanks!

How to stop iPhoto opening when I connect iPad
Calibre enabled me to stop iTunes from opening every time I connected my iPad, but since Yosemite, it's now iPhoto that opens every time we're joined. I don't understand iPhoto, which never wants to do anything I want it to, so I almost never use it. Not only that, it takes an age to fully open while it tries to read photos from my iPad, the Cloud and probably from the Other Side.
I am guessing this might be connected with iCloud, but I want to stop it. I've looked at iPhoto's Preferernces, I've looked at a number of things in System Preferences, but so far I can't stop this automatic opening.OK, I found it, but I can't see how I can control it. I have tried to insert a screen shot. Despite it being only 211KB and 911 x 542 in size, this program will not let me insert it. Right, so I select iPad in the sidebar, and it shows me a load of photos premsumably on the pad that it wants to copy to Pictures and which I don't want it to since they are already there, but there does not seem to be a way of stopping it. Oh, yes I could possibly send them somewhere else, but there doesn't seem to be a way of not sending anything anywhere. I think this may be an iCloud issue. With "advanced editor", I have finally manage to insert the screen shot - hope that explains what I couldn't.

How do I delete photos from iPod Touch? Some photos do not have the trash basket option!
How do I delete photos from iPod Touch? Some photos do not have the trash basket option!
When I first synced my iPod Touch with my laptop, it uploaded a lot of photos onto the iPod. I now wish to delete those but it does not seem as a straight forward option!For photos synced to the iPod you have to unsync them:
To delete photos from your device
In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left. Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
Choose "Sync photos from."
On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
Click Apply.
