Hi,

I've been uploading lots of photos recently and every time I connect my camera to my PowerBook via the dock and usb cable, iPhoto automatically loads. I prefer to manually copy the images to my own folders because I've had bad experiences with iPhoto. Is there a way to prevent it automatically loading up whenever I connect the camera?

go to Image Capture to turn off iPhoto launching whenever you connect your camera.

You really couldn't figure that one out for youself?! Turning off iPhoto from within Image Capture is the most intuitive thing in the world. Like setting Firefox the default web browser from within Safari. Of course! Where else?!

OS X features some of the stupidest UI solutions I've seen. Ever.
