iPhoto starts when camera connected - how to switch off?

Hi,
possibly a quick and easy one, but I could not find an option in iPhoto nor in this forum. I am on OSX 10.4.6.

When I connect my camera to my iBook G4 (or the card reader) iPhoto starts automatically. I prefer to import the pictures in the Finder directly. I could not find an option to switch the iPhoto autostart off. Any hints are welcome ... Thanks a lot in advance.

Bernd

Open (launch, run) 'Image Capture' (in the '/Applications/' folder), and then select 'Image Capture's 'Image Capture, Preferences...' menu item.

When the 'Image Capture Preferences' window appears, click on the 'General' tab, and then from the 'Camera: 'When a camera is connected, open:' popup menu - select 'No application'. Finally, click the 'OK' button, and then quit 'Image Capture'.

Open Image Capture's Preferences and you will find what you are looking for.

Hi BarHar,
thanks for the speedy reply - I already found a similar solution here, just after I posted this one, but it didn't seem to work for me.
I am using a German version of OSX so had to search a little. Under MAXOSXHD/Applications there is nothing, had to look at another place. Just found it and thanks - solved. Have a nice day.

Offen Sie 'Digitale Bilder'. Wählen Sie 'Digitale Bilder, EinStellungen' Menüeinzelteil aus. Klicken Sie an den 'Allgemein' Tabulator, dann auserwähltes 'Kein Programm' vom ' Kamera: ' popup Menü. Klicken Sie an die 'OK' Taste, und beenden Sie dann 'Digitale Bilder'.
