Stop launching iPhoto with iPhone

anyone know how to stop iPhoto from launching automatically, every time i hook my iPhone up to my computer?
thanks so much.

I have had this same problem and changed the settings in iPhoto so that it did not automatically open when I attach the iPhone. But wouldn't it be nice if iTunes and iPhoto could coordinate and sync simultaneously or in tandem? iPhoto always opens first - and I can see the point in this, since one might want to first download photos and then place them in albums to then resync back onto iPhone. But it would be better if I had a choice. How nice it would be if a dialog box popped up asking which program I would like to open first?
I am so frustrated because iTunes inevitably crashes after I plug and unplug the iPhone a few times to get it to sync with iTunes rather than iPhoto.

Stop Launching Iphoto?

Any way to get the iphone to stop launching iphoto everytime you sync?

Delete any photos stored in the 'Camera Roll' section of your iPhone and iPhoto won't launch. Otherwise you'll have to disable iPhoto launching for all cameras. I agree this should be adjustable but for now OS X sees an iPhone as just another camera. As long as it has pictures that haven't been uploaded, iPhoto will helpfully offer to get them for you.
Of course, this doesn't apply to sync'd photos -- just the ones you take with the iPhone camera. So the way to deal with it (on a mac at least) is to let iPhoto upload your pictures when you dock. Edit them in iPhoto and move the ones you want to keep on the iPhone into an "iPhone pics" folder and sync that. Seems a bit circular but then we're only at iPhone 1.0 so far!

Syncing iphoto with iPhone 4s - photos suddenly rearranged!!!!

My iPhoto ALBUMS key pictures are being rearranged when I sync with my iphone 4s... This only began occurring after I updated to IOS 6 last week...
In iPhoto ALBUMS, the key photo is the first photo in each album... When I sync my iphone 4s with my Mac Air, the ALBUM key photo becomes the last photo in the ALBUMS... Is there any way to fix this???

In iPhoto try manually selecting each photo and Import.

Remove the iPod Photo Cache folder and try to sync with iPhoto again: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314
If the issue persists try rebuilding your iPhoto Library following this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2638. Use the bottom 3 rebuild options.

How do I stop MacBook syncing with iPhone and iPad mini

My MacBook automatically starts to sync iPhone and iPad when I open iTunes. I only want to sync with my iMac, but MacBook seems to override what I want as default for syncing. I have under preferences device ticked box to prevent syncing but it makes no difference.
Any help would be appreciated

On the PC from the Windows Start menu, choose Control Panel > Network and Internet > iCloud.
Make sure Mail is selected.
On the iPhone and iPad tap Settings > iCloud
Make sure Mail is switched ON.

Iphoto 11 crashes with iphone 6 plus

When I connect my iPhone 6+ to iphoto11, the application will my iphone under Devices. However when it tries to import photos it will crash. I have tried relaunching the application, restarting my MacBook Pro....still crashes.

As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?
If the new library doesn't crash then your current library is damaged and needs to be fixed. Do the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
2 - run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

Error with iPhone app download, now can't find or open app

I recently tried to download an app on my iPhone 4S. There was an error with my phone mid-download. After a restart, the app is nowhere to be found on my phone, but I cannot re-download the app, as the app store thinks it is already on my phone. When I go to the store to re-download, the "Open" button is present (instead of the "Download" button), but when clicked, nothing happens. Syncing iPhone to a computer with iTunes also does not solve the problem, as the app doesn't appear in iTunes either.
I've tried restarting, hard resets, etc. to no avail. Suggestions?

When you launch iPhoto with the option key depressed you'll get this window:
Click to view full size
All libraries on your hard drive (and on external drives) will be listed and the currently used library will be listed as (default).

Why are my photos with Iphone 5 totally off from what I am shooting at.

I'm a photographer so not a bad shot, frequently my picture when aimed at a full body or group of people will only capture the very lower half (feet and large floor area). The next shot might be fine, Please help it's driving me nuts! Thanks!

When I plugged in the new backup (external drive) and clicked on iPhoto library, it opened iPhoto in the exact place I was working and that one photo was gone.
When you clicked on the library iPhoto on the EHD iPhoto is op;ending the last library that was previously opened. To change libraries launch iPhoto with the Option key held down to get this window:
Then select the library that is on the EHD if it's in the window. If it isn't, click on the Other Library button, navigate to the EHD and select the library there.

IPhoto with exclimention sign

I have problem with iPhoto software. When double click on the pictures all I get is exclimention mark. I tried almost every possible method to retrieve my picture from iPhoto with no success. It is a shame for apple to be pride of their iPhoto software!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's an indication that the file path to the original file has been broken. Make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Sharing an i book created in iphoto with another .mac user

I need to have another .mac user look at an i book that I have created in i photo. Does this person have to have a .mac website for this to work? If not, how would he view this?

Thanks so much for your answer, I saved it as a PDF and stored in
on iDisc in the public folder as you suggested. Now he can access that
by going to his iDisc, and 'Other User's Public Folder. Thanks for your
help. Are you with Apple, or just an individual?
Laurie:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Do you want your
friend to be able to work with the book in iPhoto or
just look at it?
If it's just look at it then do a Print to PDF and
send them the pdf file. If it's too large to email
then you an post it to your Public folder on your
iDisk for them to download.
If you want them to work on it in iPhoto then there's
no easy way to accomplish that. One method would be
the following:
1 - duplicate you iPhoto Library folder and name it
Book Library.
2 - open the Book library (launch iPhoto with the
Option key depressed and, when asked, opt to locate
the Book library and open it.
3 - delete all of the photos except those in the
book, all albums, slideshows and any non book items.
4 - now you can either burn the Book library folder
to a CD and get it to your friend or make an archive
of it (Control-click on the Book library folder and
select Create archive in the contextual menu) and
upload that to your iDisk Public folder where your
friend can download it.
You friend can then unzip the library folder and open
it as noted above.
Do you

TIP:
For insurance against the
iPhoto database corruption that many users have
experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the
Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If
problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any
photos or thinks there are no photos in the library,
replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the
backup will often get the library back. By keeping
it current I mean backup after each import and/or any
serious editing or work on books, slideshows,
calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem
pops up and you do need to replace the database file,
you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long
to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application
(requires Tiger), iPhoto dB file backup, that
will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your
iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder,
replacing any previous version of it. You can
download it at Toad's
Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf
file.

How do I stop my wife's iPhone from importing her photos to my iPhoto account on my laptop?

How do I stop my wife's iPhone from importing her photos to my iPhoto account on my laptop?
I set it up to do this a couple years ago but I forgot exactly how I did it. Now I need to know how to stop it.
What version of iPhoto? v9.6
Of the OS? 10.10.1
How are you importing photos? The photos (camera roll) from my wife's iPhone 5 syncs via wifi to my iPhoto account on the the laptop. This happens when she logs on to the laptop. We do not use the same Apple ID.
Like I said, I did this a couple years ago. I totally forgot how I did it and what method (iTunes settings?, Mac settings?, iPhone setting?) I utilized.
I was over at the forum which deals with iPhoto but they feel it is an iCloud issue.

Understood.
What version of iPhoto? v9.6
Of the OS? 10.10.1
How are you importing photos - PhotoSream? - iTunes sync? finder? image capture?exactly what are you doing and how are you doing it?

Launch image for iPhone 5 with Flash CS6

How do I add the required iPhone 5, 4 inch screen launch images to my build using Flash CS6. I have targeted Air 3.8 beta and there is no support for bundling the necessary images. Do I need to edit the plist or app descriptor xml file or something? Do Adobe plan to accommodate these new Apple requirments in a future version of CS6 or AIR SDK?
Up until now I have had no problems submitting binaries to the Appstore, but as of May 1st Apple reject any binaries that are not optimized for the 4 inch screen of the iPhone 5.
Thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for your effort!!!Did exactly the same, but no result.I changed the version number in Flash in the airsettings to 2.1, and also tried (1.1, 2.1. 1.0.1)After that, put another version ready to upload. Select this version in the apploader.And than it tells me: This bundle is invalid. The value for key cfkbunleversion in the info.plist file must contain a higher version than that of the previously uploaded version.
I do not want to update my app, but only the screens you see when buying the app in de store.And also the name of the developer. I changed my apple id from [email protected] into [email protected] thought if I run an update, the apple-id of the app will change.
(I am not sure).
Hope to hear from you.
Newspaper want a interview because it's a creative app from the city, now I hope it will work in time...App name is: jabenjibbe
Kind regards,Christa.

Hey Christa,
I'm not entirely sure what process you've gone through, but as far as uploading an update goes, it's much like uploading your original app. You need to go to iTunes Connect first and log in, go to "Manage Your Apps" and then click on the app you want to upload an update for. There'll be an option on the next page that says "Add a version". You then enter the information that you need to for the updated app and click on "Save". You'll then have the button you need to click on that says something like "Ready to Upload Binary" or something similar.
Once you click on that, you need to open up Application Loader and then upload your updated app through that. If you've entered the correct information in the steps above, you should be able to choose the new version number for your app from a list. You then just submit it like you did originally.
After that, you simply have to wait. It's not instantaneous. Submitting an update is much the same as when you submit an app for the first time. It has to go through the whole review and approval process all over again. So when you go back to iTunes Connect, you'll see for the app you've updated, there'll be a green light for the older version that's approved and currently on the App Store and an orange light for the update that's waiting approval. Once the update has been successful, it will automatically replace the older version (if you chose that option earlier) and then you will only have the one green light, for the most recent version, on iTunes Connect and then people who have downloaded the app previously will get the Update alert in the App Store on their phone/device letting them know that there are updates available.
For me, the update process was reasonably quick. It took anywhere between 3 and 5 days before the update became active on the App Store. Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Hally

Iphoto launch problem with photoshop CS4

Sorry if Im in the wrong section, If so can some one point me in the right direction. I would be very grateful if I could seek assistance on the following problem. I have downloaded Photoshop CS4 and when I opened it my Iphoto folder would not open, an error message "iphoto is being used by another application or is unreadable. This still appears after I have closed down Photoshop, After restoring from time machine and deistalling Photoshop the Iphoto comes back but the sane happens when I launch CS4 again. Can anyone advise me.
Regards Keith

To use Photoshop with iPhoto:
You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
If this error message stops you opening iPhoto:
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the apple and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to repair library permissions.

Why cannot iTunes sync movies from iPhoto taken with iPhone

I take little movies with iPhone. (5Mb)
iPhoto copies then to the Mac with the Photos.
Movie plays in iPhoto.
In iTunes I say Sync event and tick include videos on. The movies are not copied back to the iPhone.
Checked in iPhoto, event says 18 items (17 are photos one is the movie MOV04391.MPG)
In iTunes > Photos tab. the event only shows 17 items.
Thanks in anticipation...

Try launching iPhoto while holding Option, to create an alternate iPhoto library that you can test with. You can always switch back to the original iPhoto library launching iPhoto while holding Option again.
If it works in the new test library, you'll probably want to switch back to the main library and then rebuild it by holding down the Command and Option keys when launching iPhoto.
Also, when you email photos from the iPhone you should see an option to email as actual size, along with the compressed options.
WTH.
