When I connect my iPhone, iPhoto opens automatically instead of iTunes
When I connect my Iphone to my MBPro running Snow Leopard, Iphoto opens automatically instead of Itunes. When I manually open Itunes, my Iphone appears in the sidebar as normal, nut how can I change the settings so that Itunes is the default open program for syncing?
thanks
Doug
If you don't want iphoto to launch, open the image capture app, & under preferences select what you want to happen when a camera is connected. iPhoto will only launch if you have pics in your camera roll.
When your phone is connected, on the summary page there will be an option to check to open iTunes automatically when iPhone connects.

when I connect my iPhone, iPhoto opens and the phone begins charging but iTunes does not recognize it and I cannot sync. Any advice?
Howdy AndieKanaras,
It sounds like your iPhone is being recognized everywhere but in iTunes. I would use the troubleshooting for that issue in the following article, named:
If you don't see your connected device in iTunes for Mac
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

When I connect my iPhone 5 to my laptop and iTunes, I can't play movies from the iPhone on my computer.Why is that? Can I do this or it's not possible with iPhone5? With my iPod it's no problem.
Reinstall iTunes. Make sure you follow the instructions in this support document to the letter. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923.
You may have some problems because Apple has not certified that everything works with Windows 8 yet. -

PS: i have got iOs 4 on my iphone.You should have been syncing your iphone with your computer from day one.

You should be importing all pics/vids taken with your iphone to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera. -
When I connect my iPhone or iPad to synch with iTunes it keeps getting kicked out and iTunes fails
When I connect my iphone or ipad to itunes, and i click on the connection in itunes where my name is, itunes fails? any ideas
Any one or a combo may help.
Give your devices a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot. Then try again.
Try a different USB port
Try a different cable
Is your iTUnes up to date? If not, update it.
If that doesn't work, (if you're on a PC) go into the control panel, add/remove programs and uninstall iTunes, Apple mobile device service, apple application support. THen redownload and reinstall iTunes and give it another try. -
IPhone: iPhoto opens automatically when I connect my iPhone
I am using new 3G iphone and MacBook Pro. Whenever I plug in cable to sync, iPhone opens. This happens even though I am not syncing or using photos in master settings on iTunes. Can anyone explain? Thanks, Gary
Your computer is supposed to recognize your iphone as a digital camera. This is how you get photos off of you iphone and onto your computer.
As noted before you can set your computer to do nothing when a camera (iphone) is connected. -
How do i stop iPhoto from automatically opening when I connect my iPhone?
Hi, well as the title states:
How do i stop iPhoto from automatically opening when I connect my iPhone?
It's getting on my nerves...
Thanks.This might also be helpful:
I wrote an AppleScript that asks me each time I connect the iPhone/camera/etc whether or not I want to open iPhoto. Usually I just hit return and it doesn't open, but once in a while I'll click Yes to open iPhoto and import videos from my phone. I just did it because it's nice to have a little reminder so I don't go for too too long without importing, but not have it slow things down each time I plug in.
Below is the script. Paste it into AppleScript Editor, then export it as an application. Then set Image Capture to open this app when you plug in your phone. Would love to hear if it's helpful for you or if you modify it to use other criteria to automatically import only at certain times or conditions.
Nathan
set question to display dialog "Open iPhoto to import photos?" buttons {"Yes", "No"} default button 2
set answer to button returned of question
if answer is equal to "Yes" then
tell application "iPhoto" to activate

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 -
Since installing 10.5, Itunes will no longer open automatically when I connect my Iphone or insert a CD. Nor will it, when I insert a CD, recognize the CD unless I close Itunes and open it again. Any ideas?
Purchase the Snow Leopard install DVD from Apple to install 10.6
After that uodate to 10.6.8 using Software Update -
When I connect my iPhone to my PC iTunes no longer automatically opens. And when I open it myself, my phone does not even appear under devices. Help please!!
Things to try:
Try resetting your phone (press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds until the Apple logo appears. When you see the Apple logo let go of both buttons and your iPhone will reboot.
Try a new sync cable (often the problem)
Make sure you phone is adequately charged
Make sure you are using latest version of iTunes -
