Turning off iPhoto when Camera device is connected to computer??

An ardent user of Adobe Lightroom, each time when a camera device is connected to my computer, iPhoto will be the first application speeding ahead to import the pictures, which is no longer my preference. How can I prevent iPhoto in recognizing any camera device so that it does not run the application as I no longer wish to import photos thru iPhoto other than uninstalling this wonder piece of iLife?

Launch iPhoto (or image capture) and in the preferences set the preference for "when camera is connected" to do nothing - or image capture set it to launch an application of your choice

  • How can I turn off sleep when an iPod is connected?

    Is there a way to make a PowerMac running MacOS X 10.4.2 NOT go to sleep when an iPod is connected? I can only charge my iPod by connecting it to the USB bus of the computer. The first time I was charging it, my Mac put the display to sleep and I couldn't get it to wake up. I eventually had to shut down my Mac and then reboot it.
    I'd like to be able to set my Mac to sleep normally when nothing is connected but to stay awake with the iPod connected. Is this possible?

    I don't know about sleeping specifically when the iPod is connected, but I do know that you can set the sleep timing to never in Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Energy Saver. Manually setting up sleep can be done via the Apple menu. There may be a way to check with the terminal if the iPod is a mounted volume, though that would be a Unix command that I'm not familiar with. You may be able to find it via the man pages here:

  • Turn off iPhoto automatically opening when iPod syncs

    When I plug in my iPod Touch, iTunes automatically opens, as does iPhoto if I have saved photos on my iPod.  I don't want iPhoto to open up as sometimes I'm in the middle of other work.  Is there a way to turn off iPhoto from automatically opening whenever I plug my iPod Touch in to sync?

  • HT1320 my ipod nano is stuck in the lock position, my  hold switch will not turn off even when I move it, I have restored it and it came back on in the hold position

    My ipod naaIno is stuck in the lock position, my hold switch will not turn off even when I move it.  I have tried restoring it and resetting it and it still comes back on in the hold/locked postion.  It will only play when placed on a docking station and then I cant scroll to pick songs, I can only go to next song using buttons on docking station.

    You will need to have the hold switch replaced.

    hi me kashif Hello people,
    I lost all my contacts on my iPhone. Facebook contacts integration is turned off. When I got to know that I have no contacts on my iPhone. I checked my settings and iCloud backup and contacts on iCloud (in settings) were off.
    Is there a solution to get all my contacts back? Please help me. I want my contacts back, as soon as possible.
    Thank you in advance.

    Unless as part of a backup, or stored somewhere else, they are gone.
    Your son needs his own Apple ID for iCloud, FaceTime & iMessage. He can continue to use yours for iTunes content, but for everything else, he needs his own.
    When you did what you did, as far as iCloud knows, this is the same person with multiple devices, and that's they way things are supposed to work: keep everything in sync.

  • TS1717 While downloading the latest iTunes version, my computer turned off. When I opened iTunes, it says that "The file "iTunes Library.itl"  cannot be read  because it was created by a newer version of iTunes" Help please :(

    While downloading the latest iTunes version, my computer turned off. When I opened iTunes, it says that "The file "iTunes Library.itl"  cannot be read  because it was created by a newer version of iTunes" Help please

    That message is usually a sign that you tried to roll back to an earlier build of iTunes, but occasionally I've seen it connected to a new upgrade. This technique should fix things.
    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

  • Grandkids set up ipad2 for grandma. Passcode forgotten and never used again.  The ipad was never turned off, and was never synced or connected to main PC.  No iTunes installed on PC.  Yesterday while visiting with owner, I downloaded an app for her.

    Grandkids set up ipad2 for grandma. Passcode forgotten and never used again.  The ipad was never turned off, and was never synced or connected to main PC.  No iTunes installed on PC.  Yesterday while visiting with owner, I downloaded an app for her.  It installed and restarted the ipad. Passcode is now needed. What to do?

    If Find my iPad was never set up then scroll down & follow the directions under Recovery Mode:
    Forgot passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, or your device is disabled - Apple Support
    If it was and the activation lock is triggered, then you will need to know the original Apple ID & password that her grandkids used to set it up or have them sign into iCloud & remove the device from Find My iPad before you can Restore it.

    Hey ktillis88,
    Thanks for the question. Based on the information you have provided, the following resource may be helpful:
    iCloud: Understanding Backup alert messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4576
    "Backups for appname cannot be turned off at this time."
    This message occurs if disabling Backup for an app on your iOS device does not complete successfully. Wait a few minutes and then attempt to disable Backup for the app again. If you continue to receive this alert, contact iCloud Support for assistance.
    Thanks,

    If it continues to show the connect to iTunes graphic, then you do have to restore the phone. If you have not created a backup of your phone, then I hope you use icould because this will erase all of the info on the phone.

  • How do i turn off the web cam? I shot camera?

    I have a MacBook and the  camera/web cam is on. How do I shut it off?

    Hi
    The camera should turn off automatically when no software is using it. As it's on all the time, it's possible that you have a login item which is automatically starting up and turning on the camera.  Removing this login item should make the camera turn off until you need it.
    To check login items, run System Preferences > Accounts
    Select your personal account
    Go to the Login Items tab
    Deselect every option
    Save/exit then log out and log back in again
    With any luck, this should fix it
