TS1702 Why does my mac open with iphoto when I connect my iPhone

When I connect my iPhone to my Mac Mini the Mini opens automatically to iPhoto and just sits with the wheel spinning.  I have to force quit to exit.   My mini is set to automatically open in Itunes when conncected to an iPhone.  Not happening.  Any thoughts?

iPhoto SHOULD open if you have photos in the Camera Roll, just like it would with any digital camera.
For the problem with it not appearing in iTunes see: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591

  • Why does my Mac boot with a Grey screen and a globe?

    Why does my Mac boot with a Grey screen and a globe?

    Usually means you don't have a bootable system installed so the OS is looking for a bootable system on the network.
    Does the computer eventually start up shortly after the globe appears? If so then open Startup Disk preferences, select your boot volume and click on the Restart button. If this is not the case then you need to reinstall Snow Leopard.
    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

  • Why does my mac air always restart when I open it in our university?

    Why does my mac air always restart when I open it in our university?
    This has been always bothering me for some time already. Whenever I open my macbook air in our university it always warns me to restart my device. When I do the same thing happens over and over again until it reached 27 reports.

    I'd make a sound too if i was put into a bag haha.
    Only thing i could think of it it has a mind of its own or your putting your computer to sleep. Try shutting down your mac before placing in your bag and see if that changes things.

  • Why am I getting 2 images of each picture on iPhoto when I connect my iPhone to the iMac?

    I have been experiencing this problem for a while. However, it doesn't happen all the times.
    When I connect my iPhone (4s) to my iMac (running Yosemite), iPhoto pops up on screen, all the pictures from my iPhone displaying under "Devices" (i.e. the iPhone) are all duplicated, meaning each picture has 2 copies displaying. Therefore, I don't feel comfortable uploading them to the iMac, worrying that I may get 2 copies of everything taking up the memory.
    Appreciate if someone could help me resolve this problem. Thank you.

    Before you import unplug the iPhone and plug it back in.  That usually will remove the duplicate photos showing and import just one copy. 
    Also check out this post by AlexandraMeyn  to see if it applies to your situation:

    [DocumentBodyStart:82156be4-6d1a-4fe9-ac48-11557b932026]
    Thanks for the above input from all. I found, regardless of updates and whatnot... that if I were importing photos from my phone via the USB connection, I had to make sure that in iTunes both "Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected" and Sync this iPhone over wifi were UNCHECKED.
    Open iPhoto after those options in iTunes correspond, and finally the duplicate issue stopped.

  • Why does xls files open with textedit

    Here lately when I download files that are .xls the textedit program opens up? I can close and click on the download and it opens with microsoft excel. I download a lot of excel files and this happens all the time. Prior to 2 months ago when I downloaded a file it would open correctly with Microsoft Excel. Thanks for any assistance. /r Terry

    If it has an .xls extension and you follow Thomas' instructions, the document should open in Excel:
    Just change the "Open with..." to Microsoft Excel (I'm assuming that you have Excel?) and you should be able to open it by double-clicking on it.
    Clinton
    P.S. I just realized what an old file that is - all of my 'new' Excel docs are in .xlxs format!

  • Why can't I open my iphoto when trying to email or useing wetransfer?

    When I try to attach a photo through email (not using the app) or use WeTransfer for larger documents I cannot open iphoto like I used to. I recently updated my mac software to the newest one and then had to update iphoto to be compatable .  The regular app works just like it used to but when I try to attach like i mentioned before it's just blank. None of my photo's or albums come up.

    If you're referring to accessing the original image files via the Finder inside the library package that went out with iPhoto 7 (08).  The library is not a package and access to the photos for use outside of iPhoto is thru iPhoto.  The following User Tip by Terence Devlin is the best treatise on how to access photos (for use outside of iPhoto):  How to Access Files in iPhoto.

  • Why does my page open in Japanese when I sign on to AT&T

    Often, but not every time, when I sign on to my AT&T the page opens with Japanese, or some other Asian langauge. WHY and how can I stop this??

    Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.
    * Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
    * Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    * Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
    You can check the encoding and make sure that it is set to UTF-8 or a Western encoding and not to an UTF-16 encoding.

  • Why does Firefox repeatedly open new tabs when I open a .php file?

    Hey guys!
    I do web development and design. I've just set up my PC (Ubuntu 14.04 LTS) and installed my choice of software.
    On the .php files I set Firefox as the default software to open with but now it opens about 50 odd tabs in the space of 3 seconds. How do I fix this?
    Kind regards,
    -Trey

    You've hit a bug that happens when you set Firefox as the external "helper" application used to open a type of file (the "Warning!" paragraph [http://kb.mozillazine.org/File_types_and_download_actions#Setting_an_automatic_action here] links to the related bug reports, if you're interested).
    See [[Firefox repeatedly opens empty tabs or windows after you click on a link]] for how to fix this.

    It's just reminding you to update your Mac and you should heed its advice. According to your signature, you're due for a MASSIVE update. You're still at 10.4.1 for pete's sakes, the latest version of MacOS X is 10.4.11!
