IPhoto automatically launches when I restart

IPhoto 5.0.4 seems to automatically launch everytime I restart. There isn't anything in /Library/StartupItems/ for this to occur, nor is there anything in the iPhoto preferences. Has this happened to anyone else? I don't know how to make it quit doing that.

Thanks Peter!
That was the problem. Is that a new "feature" in Tiger? Also, I wonder why iPhoto got put in there in the first place.

  • I don't want Microsoft Word to automatically launch when I restart/reboot

    Hi All,
    Microsoft Word application automatically launches when I restart/reboot the iMac. How can I fix this?
    Smells like a virus...

    Hi ctconnor;
    Since there are no virus for OS X, I seriously doubt that is what is causing your problem here.
    My suggestion open System Preferences then Accounts followed by Login Items. Once there deselect Microsnot Word.

  • Is there a way to NOT have iPhoto automatically launch when iPhone is...

    connected to my PowerBook?

    After importing photos from the iPhone or from any digital camera with iPhoto, iPhoto includes the option to delete photos from the camera when the import process is complete.
    Are you not provided with this option?
    Photo storage on the iPhone is similar to that of iPhoto, iTunes and the Address Book application.
    A photo cannot be in an iPhoto album without being available in the main iPhoto library also. Delete the original from the main iPhoto library that is available in an album or albums and the photo will no longer be available in the album or albums.
    The same with iTunes and music Playlists and the Address Book application and Address Book Groups.
    When selecting an iPhoto album to be transferred to the iPhone that contains 20 photos, all photos are available in the iPhone's Photo Library - this is like the main photo library with iPhoto on your Mac and all photos are available in the photo album transferred to your iPhone but this does not mean the photos are duplicated.
    This is beneficial with transferring multiple iPhoto albums to the iPhone.
    On the iPhone you have the following:
    Camera Roll - stores photos captured by the iPhone only.
    Photo Library - stores photos transferred from your computer to the iPhone only and stores all transferred photos available in all albums.
    Photo Albums.
    I have the following with names of my iPhoto albums changed to protect the innocent.
    Photo Library (118)
    Album #1 (8)
    Album #2 (6)
    Album #3 (39)
    Album #4 (15)
    Album #5 (6)
    Album #6 (6)
    Album #7 (4)
    Album #8 (16)
    Album #9 (6)
    Album #10 (12)
    All photos available in all albums totals 118 photos. This way I can select an album and view photos available in the selected album only or I can select Photo Library and view all photos available in all albums.
    Does this make sense?

  • How can I disable iPhoto automatic launch?

    Hi,
    I do not use iPhoto to import my digital images. How can I disable the automatic launch when I plug my camera or card reader?
    Thanks!

    Hi Paul,
    To do this just open Image Capture, open its preferences and then under the general tab you can select the option of "When a camera is connected, open:"
    Just select no application and that should do it.

  • 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

  • Image Capture and iPhoto automatically launch...

    Hi:
    I am using OS X Yosemite. Whenever I connect a camera to my computer, iPhoto automatically launches. Since I don't use iPhoto, I have to close it before I can download my photos to Adobe Lightroom. in iPhoto—> Preferences—> General I have it set to "Connecting Camera opens: No application"  But iPhoto launches anyway. How can I make it stop?
    Whenever I connect an iOS device to my computer, the app Image Capture launches. I don't need this to happen either. How can I make it stop?
    Thanks!
    Janet

    Open image caputre. Plug in the device. Select the device in the list. Open the icon at the bottom of the window and set the device to open no application or choose the application you want it to open.
    Repeat for all devices you plug in to that computer.

  • My iPhoto keeps opening when I restart my computer

    My iphoto keeps opening up when I restart my computer.  Is there anyway for me to turn this off?

    Sure
    Do you have any FAT strorage devices attached to it? Is so unmount them or in the iPhoto preferences set actipon when a camera is connected to do nothing
    Do you have iPhpoto set to launch on start up? Is so right click on the iPhoto icon in the Dock and under options uncheck that option
    Do you have iPhoto in your list of programs to launch at login  in the users and groups  system preferences? If so then remove it
    Was iPhoto running when you shut down and do you have the option checked to restart all programs ? If so quit iPhoto before shutting down or uncheck that option

  • 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.

  • ITunes automatic launch when iPhone connected

    I suddenly have a new problem, and am uncertain as to what I did. When I plug my iPhone into my MacBook, in the past, iTune automatically launched and recognized my phone. Does not do that anymore.
    I upgraded to Leopard. Any thoughts?
    Thanks,

    Howdy-
    Make sure, on your iPhone's screen in iTunes, that "Open iTunes when this iPhone is connected" is checked.
    I am seeing the same thing. I have to manually launch iTunes on my Mac Pro.
    i like , are you referring to the checkbox in iTunes on the Mac/PC that actually reads, "Automatically sync when iPhone is connected" or a screen on the iPhone?
    I have the above box checked yet iTunes still fails to open when I plug in my iPhone.
    Any ideas?

  • How can I stop iPhoto from automatically launching when iPads are connected to my MacBook Pro?

    never mind - all fixed!

  • Why my iPhoto STOP launching when I plug in my Canon IXUS 800IS

    Hello all.
    This *used to be fine* until recently when I finished shooting some photos and when I plug in my Canon IXUS 800 (same camera), *iPhoto did not launch automatically*. And when I launch it, inside, *the camera does not appear*, instead, there is an 'Apple iPod' and says nothing to import.
    Turning on/off the camera, launching/quitting iPhoto in which ever order, doesn't seem to help, *seem only a restart can help*.
    *What's going on here?*
    Thanks

    Hi Terence, thanks for replying, your pointers are worth "further investigating and experimenting"
    1. Have not tired whether plugging in the camera would launch iTunes; 'Cause I have my iPods already in their docks, so they will launch iTunes (anyway)
    2. Card Reader - Now this is interesting. Prior to my first "failed" attempt at this whole thing, my dad actually asked me to import photos from his digital camera, but we used a card reader instead, and when plug in, it launched iPhoto, and the card reader was read as the model of my dad's camera
    Now could this have somehow "confused" my iPhoto?
    3. There is still an 'Apple iPod' mounted in iPhoto whenever I launch it, regardless whether I plug in any camera. Could this be the iPod touch that I have?
    Thanks and cheers
