After switching to OS X, there was one big annoyance that kept happening over and over — every time I plug anything into my MacBook and it happens to have a DCIM folder on the file system, iPhoto will immediately launch and start scanning.

切换到OS X后，一遍又一遍又一遍又一遍地困扰着我—每当我将任何东西插入MacBook时，碰巧文件系统上都有DCIM文件夹，iPhoto就会立即启动并开始扫描。

The problem is that I don’t want to use iPhoto all the time — I mean sure, I can use it to import my photos, but what if I’m trying to do something else like hack my Minecraft Pocket save files, or I’ve got other content on a removable drive? Or what if I just want to charge my iPhone or iPad?

问题是我不想一直使用iPhoto-我的意思是，我可以用它导入我的照片，但是如果我想做其他事情(例如入侵我的Minecraft Pocket保存文件)怎么办？可移动驱动器上还有其他内容？ 或者，如果我只是想为iPhone或iPad充电怎么办？

Luckily it’s really easy to stop iPhoto from launching automatically.

幸运的是，阻止iPhoto自动启动真的很容易。

禁用自动启动iPhoto (Disabling iPhoto from Launching Automatically)

Just open up iPhoto and go to Preferences from the menu bar, and take a look at the “Connecting camera opens” drop-down.

只需打开iPhoto并从菜单栏中转到“首选项”，然后查看“打开相机连接”下拉列表。

Change it from iPhoto to “no application” and iPhoto will stay quiet from now on.

将其从iPhoto更改为“无应用程序”，iPhoto从现在开始将保持安静。

It’s so annoying that iPhoto doesn’t pull your videos off your phone too. But, of course, that’s another article.

太烦人了，iPhoto也不会将视频从手机上拉下来。 但是，当然，那是另一篇文章。

如何仅针对一台设备禁用iPhoto自动启动 (How to Disable iPhoto Auto Launch for Just One Device)

If you want to have iPhoto start automatically for your camera’s memory card but not when you plug in your iPhone, you can actually tweak the settings per device. Just open up the Image Capture application:

如果要让相机的存储卡自动启动iPhoto，而不是在插入iPhone时启动，则实际上可以调整每个设备的设置。 只需打开Image Capture应用程序：

Down in the lower left-hand corner you’ll see a little arrow, which you might have to click to expand. You can change the setting here between No application, iPhoto, Preview, or whatever you’d like.

在左下角，您会看到一个小箭头，可能需要单击以展开它。 您可以在此处在“无应用程序”，“ iPhoto”，“预览”或您想要的任何内容之间更改设置。

So set your iPhone to “no application” and leave the memory card set to default, or the other way around if you prefer it. Personally, I just turned off the automatic start entirely across the board, which seemed simpler.

因此，将您的iPhone设置为“无应用程序”，并将存储卡设置为默认设置，如果您愿意，也可以选择其他方法。 就我个人而言，我只是完全关闭了自动启动功能，这似乎更简单。
