Camera Launching iPhoto?
This is just a little tip about controlling what OS X does when you plug in your camera. Unfortunately OS X doesn’t make it so simple, like say place an option in the System Preferences, when you want to decide what to do when you plug your camera into your computer. I do think iPhoto is a great app, but 90% of the time when I plug my camera in, I don’t want to put the photos right into iPhoto. So if it’s not in the System Preferences, it must be in the iPhoto preferences, right? No! You need to find Image Capture!
You may not even know you have an app called Image Capture, but it is in fact there, and it is controlling what happens when you plug in a camera. So do a Quicksilver search(if you are so enlightened. If not Spotlight search) for Image Capture, go to Preferences, and there you will finally be able to control the fate of your camera!

This used to happen with my PSP as it always recognosed the memory stick as a place where a photo might be. I fixed it back then but be aware Image capture is a bit creaky if you haven’t used it before… mine wouldn’t save the new preference or open new etc, till a system update fixed it??? but its’s a useful tip.

If you are a man who loves Christian Louboutin, you must listen to this. Nowadays there is often a large quantity of Christian Louboutin kinds created just for men to select from, not just the classic sheepskin Christian Louboutin.

posted on May 1, 12:56 AMYES!! Thank you for posting this tip! This isn’t something that’s been burning my brain, yet it’s an annoyance whenever I plug in my camera. There are plenty of situations where I DON’T want to import whatever I have in my camera into iPhoto right then and there!
