IPhoto opens on mac when iPhone plugged in

Everytime I plug my iPhone to my MBP with Yosemite, iPhoto opens. I have the iPhoto preference "connecting camera opens with:" set to No Application. I don't believe there is any other preference for connection of phone devices anywhere, there used to be an option in sys prefs but this was migrated to iPhoto way way back.
Anyone know a way to solve this? I may try trashing my library prefs but don't want to do this if there is another workaround.
Thanks

  • Make iPhoto open by default when I plug in a SDHC

    I have a canon camera and when I plug in the SDHC card from it the default application to open is the Canon software. Is there any way to make iPhoto open by default?
    I can't find an option for this anywhere.

    Yes, it is called "Connecting camera opens", I can't believe that I missed that. Thanks.
    It would make a lot more sense to me if this was in an appropriately renamed System preferences : CDs & DVDs. You could rename it "external media".

  • How do I Install or re-buy iPhoto for my Mac when the app can't lunch?

    How do I Install or re-buy iPhoto for my Mac when the app can't lunch?
    The App Store does not let me buy iPhoto from scratch nor update it. I used the original Applications Install DVD to re-install iPhoto, and the icon appeared but the app could not be used because iPhoto 2.1 is not compatible with the Mac operating system OS X (10.9.2)? I thried to update manually through apple support, and a notification of unauthorized licence did not let it happen.  What is this? What happened with my iPhoto? What can I do to solve this and safe my photos? I'm willing to pay for it, but even the app store say that it can't becuase it was suppousely bought through another account? Please help!

    Not launching is probablay not a software issue - it is probably a data issue
    No - iPhoto 2 version 2.1 is not compatible with Mavericks - or pretty much anything else - you need to purchase iPhoto '11 version 9.5.x from the App store

  • My iphone will not connect to my mac when i plug it in. ???

    When I plug in my iphone to my mac, it does not show up in itunes.  Why won't my mac see it?

    I'm suddenly having a similar problem: I'm running Mac OS 10.7.3, iTunes 10.5.3 and iOS 5.0.1. When I plug in my iPhone, system.log reports:
    Feb 18 16:29:51 lianaslaptop com.apple.launchd[1] (com.apple.usbmuxd[685]): posix_spawn("/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/MobileDevice.framework/Versions/ A/Resources/usbmuxd", ...): No such file or directory

    Feb 18 16:29:51 lianaslaptop com.apple.launchd[1] (com.apple.usbmuxd): Throttling respawn: Will start in 10 seconds
    When I go to that location, sure enough - there is no usbmuxd. I haven't been messing with my system, I've never poked around in places like this!

    i have ios 5 now, but it also did this with the previous os.

    Hi billm1013,

  • How can I prevent iPhoto from auto-launching when I plug in a card reader?

    When I plug in a card reader, iPhoto assumes that it is being summoned and auto-magically launches itself. I don't want this to happen. I don't want iPhoto to ever launch without my permission, which I might grant once a year or so. Yet, every day I have to cope with it launching multiple times as I attempt to transfer photos to my hard drive. It is a minor annoyance, true, but it is an annoyance.
    My question, then, is how can I make iPhoto stop doing this? I've searched its settings high-and-low, but to no avail. I've searched the System Preferences high-and-low, but to no avail. There must be something I'm missing.
    Help me, Apple Forums, you're my only hope!

    Hi John,
    the next info is on using Image Capture to download the images. In the preferences though, you can choose to have nothing open when the camera is connected.
    Using Image Capture to download images and video clips:
    Open up Image Capture which is found in the Applications folder.
    When it is opened, go to Image Capture/Preferences
    Under the General button choose
    Camera: When a camera is connected, open Image Capture.
    The next time you connect your camera Image Capture will open.
    In the window that opens you will see an Options button. Click on that button to set your options.
    To find out more about Image Capture (it can do a lot more) Click on Help in the menu bar when Image Capture is open.
    iPhoto: How to Change the "Open Automatically" Preference
    If you find you can't change any of Image Captures preferences or can't access any drop down menus or they are greyed out, check to make sure Image Capture is loose in the Applications folder and not within a sub folder.

  • Any way for iPhoto to NOT launch when iPhone connected?

    Hey gang-
    Is there any way to configure iPhoto to NOT launch every time my iPhone is connected to my iMac? I understand why it does it- because there are photos on my iPhone Camera roll- I get it. But I would love for it to NOT launch iPhoto every time. I know I can use Image Capture to tell iPhoto not to launch for ANY camera, but that's overkill. I just want iPhoto to not launch when my iPhone is connected. Is there maybe an app or a terminal command that could configure that?
    Thanks!

    Sure. Go to preferences and select do nothing when a camera is attached.
    This is the way to do this. As you know, it will not open for any camera.
    These are your choices. Sorry.
    Thanks- at least I know I wasn't missing something.
    Okay- how about this? Is there an app that would enable me to move my photos off my Camera Roll and organize them separately? That might solve the problem of iPhoto seeing them.
    Thanks!

  • ITunes crashing when trying to open "apps" folder when iPhone is connected.

    When I plug in my iPhone and try to open the "apps" folder, itunes crashes. This problem occurs everytime I try to open the "apps" folder. Please help?

    There seems to be a bug in EAS when opening large outlines.  If you look in the tmp directory "C:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\tmp" on my machine you will see that every 5-6 min a copy of the otl file with a randomly generated name gets created.  Something is timing out and EAS trys again with a newly numbered random otl file name - this goes on till you cancel.  The files get left in there forever.
    The solution should be to increase a timeout setting someplace but I have not been able to find it and previous appeals here and on network54 have not yielded any results.
    There is a  work-around however.  Make your outline faster to open.  If the ESSCMDQ utility does not work, try putting the otl file on an ssd drive.  If you do not have one you can try a memory mapped IO trick:  copy the outline someplace.  Then try to open the original again - it will most likely now be sitting in memory and will open up fast enough not to generate the timeout problem.
    Of course delete the copy at some point.
    I also make it a practice to periodically clear out the abandoned junk in the tmp directory - the op system will not allow you to delete any file still in use so just del * (boy does that sound dangerous but it works).
    Now if someone has a better way I would love to know it.

  • How to transfer iPhoto album from Mac to iPhone?

    Hi all,
    I hadn't done this in a while and now that I have Mountain Lion (10.8.3) I can't find the solution as before.
    Really simple:
         I built a modest photo album in iPhoto and now I want to upload it to my iPhone.  Before, you were able to select 'sync' and it would do it, but that's not an option, or at least I don't see it.  How can I upload a completed album to my iPhone?
    Better yet, how can you upload a video from iPhoto on the Mac to the iPhone?  You can't 'share' it with PhotoStream because it won't accept video.
    Thanks much,
    SHM

    Open iTunes with the iPhone connected.  Go the Photos section for your iPhone and check the Sync Photos from checkbox and clik on Selected Albums radio button.
    Then select the album you want to sync to your iPhone.

  • USB message when IPhone plugged in to MacBook Pro

    I have a MacBook Pro running Lion. When I plug in my IPhone 5 a message appears saying one of the USBs is overloading the system and it needs to power down. I've checked all connections.
    I'm running a Cinema screen from the laptop and two printers, one wirelessly and the other by USB cable from the laptop.Ive got a keyboard and mouse running from the back of the Cinema screen. The Iphonevdcable also runs from the back of the screen.
    What to do?

    Universal Serial Bus ports have a power limit of 500 milliamps. Although USB ports are useful for transferring data and using various peripheral devices, if any USB device attempts to draw more than the allotted 500-milliamp limit, the port will register a power surge. USB power surges may disable the USB port for further use, and can cause permanent damage to your motherboard.
    http://www.ehow.com/how_6907230_fix-usb-power-surge.html#ixzz2ZMycxqTO
    You need to remove every USB connected device before you do permanant damage to your computer if you have not already. I would shut it down and have it checked out by Apple before further usage.

  • ITunes freezing when iPhone plugged into USB

    I've had my iPhone since September 08 and never had any problems syncing. Today when I plugged in my (90% charged) iPhone into my computer after adding some music to iTunes the program froze. At first it started to sync but asked if I wanted to update something. Not sure exactly what it was, some type of setting. I said yes and it downloaded whatever that was and did not sync after that. I unplugged the iPhone and replugged it to start the sync. The phone is charging so the USB port is working. I tried restarting the computer and the iPhone, repairing iTunes, different USB ports, and nothing is working. iTunes will function normally until the iPhone is plugged in. Then it freezes.
    I at least have a working phone, but I'd really really like to sync.

    SWEET RELIEF! i've been having this same problem and its nearly been the death of me (and/or my macbook and/or iphone). the second i connect my iphone to USB, itunes immediately just goes unresponsive/hangs. i've been staring at that freaking swirling rainbow for days. i've gone over every single how-to/troubleshooting/etc. topic in apple support, and gotten exactly nowhere.
    but then i found your post, deleted my podcasts, and it was like magic - iphone/itunes sync up and running like clockwork.
    my sanity thanks you... TO EVERYONE ELSE HAVING THE SAME PROB - THIS WORKS!!! JUST DELETE WHATEVER PODCASTS/APPS YOU DOWNLOADED FROM YOUR IPHONE, AND PROBLEM SOLVED.
