OS X 10.11 El Capitan has a great new
Photos app to replace
iPhoto, but it has one very annoying feature. Every time an
iPhone/iPod/iPad is connected to the
Mac,
Photos opens and asks to import photos from the connected device. There is a way to switch this off however.
To stop
Photos opening every time you connect a device, follow these steps:
- Connect your device to your Mac
- Wait for Photos to open and click on your device
- Untick the 'Open Photos for this device' check box
After this is done
Photos will no longer open when that device is connected. If you want to do this for more than one device, repeat the steps above for each of the devices.
