IPhone automatically launches Photoshop and Microsoft Photo

My iPhone automatically launches Photoshop and Microsoft Photo since the computer sees it as a camera. How do I prevent these automated launches.

I recommend turning off the auto launch all together. Every time I used to dock Windows xp wanted to to open the phone with Microsoft Scanning and so on.

Since upgraded to ios 8 my iPhone has become slow and deleted photos appeared automatically in camera roll. How do I overcome these problems?Please help

Kindly help me to solve these problems.

Hi abhi_lara,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature and scope of the issues you are describing. If you are having issues with generalized slowness and photo behavior after upgrading your iPhone to iOS 8, you may want to first try resetting your device:
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
If you are still having issues after the reset, you may want to make sure you have a current backup of your data in iTunes, then try restoring your iPhone to factory settings and testing it in that default condition to see if the issues persist before restoring the apps or your data. You may find the following article helpful:

Automatic launch while downloading camera photos

I recently upgraded to the 3.0 Starter Edition, but I don't like the way it automatically launches when I connect my camera to the computer. I prefer using the software that came with my camera for uploading the images from the camera to the PC, but I don't see an option to to deselect the auto-launch of the Adobe program.
Does anyone know how to do that?
Thanks,
Lisa

I am having the same problem, and Edit > Preferences > Files, the setting "Use Photoshop Album Starter Edition to view JPEG image files" was not set for default use. I tried setting it, saving the setting, and then unsetting it again, and it still automatically launches when I connect my camera to the computer.
Do you have to hack the registry or something equally tedious to fix this annoyance?

IPhoto automatically imported EVENT and its photos?

I imported some photos into iPhoto on my MacBook Air this weekend while away. This morning (I'm back home), I started the MacBook Air with the intent of copying the imported photos to my iMac and eventually into the iPhoto library. So the Air is running, but iPhoto is not running on the Air.
I open iPhoto on my iMac. While navigating back to the All Events display, I notice a new event that I created on my MacBook Air ("Easter 2014") pops up on my iMac. I open that event and there are two photos in it. Puzzled, I scratch my head and another photo is added to the event. "Am I looking at the photostream?" I ask myself. No. This is a new event. After a minute or two, all the photos from the same event on my MacBook Air show up on my iMac in the same event.
So this event from the Air is automatically duplicated into my iMac's iPhoto Library, except for the video files. So just like photostream, except this is not in the typical photostream created event name, such as Apr 2014 Photostream.
I can see this being a huge feature, but I'm not sure how it happened. Anyone else experience this?

Easter 2014
Here were the exact steps:
So before I left, there were 20 departure photos that were in both libaries, referenced by iPhoto.
While out of town, on the MacBook Air, I created the event "Easter 2014." I moved the 20 relevant photos out of Apr 2014 photostream event into this new event. So now these 20 photos exist in both libraries, but on the Air, they are in a new event call "Easter 2014"
I then imported, while out of town, about 14 more photos and 3 videos from an SD card into the Air iPhoto library and merged the imported event into "Easter 2014"
This morning, while back at home, I started the MacBook Air but did not start iPhoto. I then started iPhoto on the iMac. In Finder, I navigated to the photos on the Air and copied them. I went to the folder on the iMac that already had 20 photos in it and pasted the additional photos and videos. I then realized that my camera had started over sequentially with the use of a new SD card, so there were duplicate names in the destination. I skipped overwriting and then pressed cmd-z to undo the copy. While contemplating how to handle this, I brought iPhoto to the front and viewed all of the events, that were sorted by date descending (newest on top.) I noticed an event on the iMac, "Easter 2014" and opened it. There were two photos that were only on the Air and in the Photostream. As I contemplated this, another photo was added, then another until all the photos (but no videos).
Just now, I thought maybe the paste action in Finder while iPhoto was open might have triggered iPhoto to believe those photos were "moved" from the Photostream (since they had the same file name and were already there.)
That's my only guess. Since the original event photos were referenced, and the photos that magically appeared are NOT referenced, I can only assume this is what happened. The photos did not become "unlinked" (If that's the right word) when I "undid" the paste of the photos, they are still present inside the library package.
But I think it is bad guess -- because I've always assumed iPhoto has no association of the name of a folder with an event (in Finder, not in the library package.)

After upgrading my mac to OS X Yosemite iPhoto doesn't automatically launch to import new photos. It seems iPhoto is not recognizing my iPhone 6

immediately after upgrading to Yosemite it worked but only imported one photo out of 536 photos, there was an error message that said there was a problem reading a photo or a photo was missing. i have tried rebooting my computer and my phone and checked all the settings and i turned off photos on iCloud settings to be sure.

Hi Rob954,
In order to make sure that iPhoto launches when you connect an iPhone to your computer, you will want to check one setting in iPhoto. See this article -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Upgrade from iPhone 4 to 4S and all photos in Camera Roll went missing

I upgraded from iPhone 4 to iPhone4S. I did a restored from my last backup before the upgrade and all my photos in my camera roll has disappeared!
What I discover is that it is still stored in the iPhone 4S as it took up 25GB of storage. However, it is not accessible inside the iPhone 4S. The photos are stuck in the iPhone 4S and taken up a lot of storage in the iPhone. Please help!

What I meant was I bought a new iPhone 4S and restored my backup of my old iPhone 4 into iPhone 4S and the camera roll photos that were in the old iPhone 4 did not show up in my iPhone 4S despite occupying space in the iPhone 4S ...

IPhone resets playing music and viewing Photo Album

My iPhone has started reseting to the main menu and the applications (photo album and iPod) at random when both are active. I hava also had several resets, I call them that because I don't know what the system is doing but the application simply quits and the phone goes back to the top menu. I have heard there is a problem with the latest version of the system so is there anything I can do to stablize the situation? The phone is working as it should be but the applications are not predictable.
Thanks for your responses in advanced.

The behavior you're describing where the application quits and you are taken back to the home screen is called "crashing".
The first thing you can try is resetting your iPhone. Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down until the Apple logo shows on the screen (about 6-8 seconds), then release the buttons.
If that does not help, you should restore your iPhone. Connect your phone to iTunes, let it sync, and then click restore. After your iPhone software is reloaded, you will be able to restore all your data from your last sync. You will have to re-enter some passwords, such as your voicemail password, wi-fi network passwords, and email account passwords.
If you continue to get crashes despite these measures, I recommend getting your iPhone serviced either by taking it to the Apple store or by calling 1-800-MY-iPHONE.

All of a sudden Safari is automatically launching loud and annoying ads. How can I stop this

Annoying and loud ads are popping up and playing automatically in Safari. How can I stop this? I have 8.0.5 and OS 10.10.3

There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
Back up all data before making any changes.
One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
or
Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
if it's not already checked.

How do i restore my iphone 6 before icloud and recover photos and texts

how do I restore my iphone 6 before icloud? when I backed up my icloud to my phone I lost current pictures and texts

Instructions here.
iCloud: Restore or set up your iOS device from iCloud

I turned iPhone automatic backup off and it won't turn back on.

Ok. So I previously turned off automated backups on iphone. I didn't know there was a gui option to do this so I typed in the terminal command.
defaults write com.apple.iTunes AutomaticDeviceBackupsDisabled -bool true
This worked. Yet, for some reason, I can't get the opposite command to work (replacing "true" with "false") and I no longer have the right click contextual menu in itunes to manually backup.
Frankly, a little scary to not be able to backup because I mess with the phone a lot.
PS Any solutions? I haven't recieved any errors through itunes, it is just a lack of options.

You have to get rid of the key AutomaticDeviceBackupsDisabled.
Paste this in the Terminal:
defaults delete com.apple.iTunes AutomaticDeviceBackupsDisabled

Launching PhotoShop every-time iPhone is connected to Windows

Every-time I connect an iPhone to a Windows XP Professional machine Photoshop is launched (as well as iTunes). How can I stop Photoshop, or any image application, being launched when the iPhone is connected?
I've tried turning off automatically sync when iPhone is connected in iTunes, but all this does is stop iTunes from automatically launching - Photoshop continues to launch.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Andrew

When an iPhone contains photos captured by the iPhone, it is also detected as a digital camera when connected to your computer.
Or does PhotoShop also launch automatically when your iPhone doesn't contain any photos captured by the iPhone?
If not, one answer is importing these photos to your computer as you would with photos captured by any digital camera and then remove/delete the photos from the camera or in this case, the iPhone's camera storage. Any of these photos you want available on your iPhone, add these photos to other photos transferred from your computer to the iPhone via the iTunes sync process.
Apple computers include such a setting with the Image Capture application included with OS X which can be used to import photos from a digital camera without needing to install the camera's software or using Apple's iPhoto application or a 3rd party application such as PhotoShop. Apple's iPhoto application also includes the same setting as does iTunes.
If PhotoShop does not include such a setting, it should be included with Windows somewhere.

IPhone 3GS Camera App and Photo App Not Opening

Hi, my iPhone 3GS Camera Application and the Photo Application (Base Apple Photo-related apps "Photos", "Camera") will not open. When I tap either of them, it takes me back to the Home Screen and for a brief moment says "Library Updating", I have been waiting over a day for this to work and it still wont open.
If more information is required please specify what areas are needed below.
Thanks,
Datzy.

(windows) and browse for the photos and keep it some place else...

DOWNLOADING FROM iPHONE 3GS TO PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS 8 (PC)

HI, Please Please Please can anybody help me? I am ABSOLUTELY desperate for an answer!!! I have an iPhone 3Gs and Photoshop Elements 8 and work on a PC running Windows Vista (32). I used to run all the same but with Photoshop Elements Version 5. Everything used to work PERFECTLY till suddenly just out of the blue one day, I plugged my iPhone into my computer and my photos did not automatically download into Photoshop and I cannot / did not have a clue why? I do NOT recall changing ANY settings anywhere on my phone or my computer? Anyway, I messed around for hours trying to fix it but to NO avail? So, I went to the Apple store and they could NOT figure out why, but told me that I needed to reinstall ITunes and MAYBE update Photoshop Elements 5 to 8, which I have done, but it STILL does not download ANY photos from my iPhone to my computer and I am now TOTALLY desperate as my iPhone is nearly FULL with photos and if I cant figure it out soon, I'm gonna have to delete all my photos from my phone! PLEASE HELP ME URGENTLY! Thanks Donna

Hi,
Thanks SO MUCH for your response! In reply to your questions,
1.     Can you please tell what error are you getting?     -
        Absolutely None! Its as though my phone is not plugged in at all! I only know that its plugged in because I see it in ITunes as "Donna's iPhone"                 other than that it is not recognized anywhere in/on my computer, so I am not even able to go into Photoshop Elements because when I manually try
        to download the photos through Elements, it does not recognize my iPhone as plugged in!
2.     Have you ever modified/corrected any image from the iPhone itself?
        No! All I've ever done is taken my photo's and then tried to download them directly from my iPhone onto my computer!
3.     Have you ever saved any image from en email attachment configured on the iPhone?
        No, there are only photos saved in a folder that was made as a default folder directly by "Apple" on the iPhone to store my photos on when I take
        the photo's and they then go directly into "that" folder that "Apple" created before I got the phone. And then they used to automatically download
        from"that" folder directly into my "pictures" folder onto my computer! Other than that I have not saved any other pictures onto my iPhone EXCEPT
        when Elements was working, and it did download my pictures from my phone, I chose about 250 pictures from my computer and sent those to my
        iPhone. My iPhone then created a seperate folder and put those pictures that I transferred from my computer into that folder. But Elements still
        worked fine after that and I had no problems for about a year after that? But no, I've never saved any received email pics at all!
Hope that that helps you be able to sort out this excessive mystery for / with me!
Kindest regards
Donna

OpenGL issue when launching Photoshop CS5 Extended from Lightroom?

I noticed about 2 weeks ago that the scrubby zoom and rotate commands stopped working. Obviously OpenGL was not
enabled and was greyed out, not letting me enable it. I have a 295GTX video card with dual GPU's and I have updated all drivers NVidia 280.26. When I went through the Adobe troubleshoot doc I reset my preferences/defaults by holding <CTRL><ALT><SHIFT> when launching Photoshop and it allows me to enable it. I can even open a bunch of images and everything works but only if I open them FROM within Photoshop. If I pick an image from Lightroom (Latest Version) and launch it to photoshop it will not allow me to run OpenGL features any longer and the only way I can get it to work again is to reset it doing the <CTRL><ALT><SHIFT> move.
Any suggestions or knowlege of issues / bugs?

As a temporary workaround, you can uninstall the driver and try using an earlier release. Sometimes they break new things with new releases.
