How to keep i-Photo from starting up when downloading?

[sfcole]

When I connect my camera to my Mac to download my photos, the most annoying thing happens:

i-Photo opens up and asks if I want to download. I have to then wait and close out i-Photo because it

doesn't recognize RAW files anyway. It only happens when first connecting--I have the files set so that

when opened individually on the desktop, they open in Elements. I've looked for a preference setting so

that i-Photo doesn't open up, but can't find one. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to prevent

i-Photo from starting up each time? I suppose I could trash the program, but I do have a lots of photos

already saved in it.

thanks,

Scott

I am not sure about this because I long ago trashed iPhoto, but try going to "CD&DVD" panel

in preferences and change Picture CD to "ignore". That may help.

In Applications go to Image Capture and open it - ignore the device not connected bit,

then in preferences select 'when a camera is connected - do not open iphoto'.
