turn off iPhoto "autostart"

doxx · 07-16-2003, 06:30 PM

I'm doing serious digital photography, sometimes lots of shots at the same time... iPhoto is just not the right tool to preview all these images.
Whenever I connect my camera to my Mac, or stick in a CF card, iPhoto starts up automatically... How do I turn this feature off??

You can set this within the preferences of the Image Capture app that's located in your Applications folder.

Thank you doxx for asking this VERY relevant question, and djn1 for answering it! I looked far and wide for this solution!

Thanks again!
