  • I would have preferred to see this answer on the other question, as it provides details when you're looking for the option in Image Capture rather than in iPhoto.

  • Well @Joost. This solves the problem of iPhoto opening. The answer did not lie in iPhoto. The settings in iPhoto are ignored. The question is answered. iPhoto no longer opens.

    @Rob no it's not! The iPhoto settings are ignored! Changing in Image Capture is not exactly the same as changing in iPhoto. It's similar. But it doesn't work in Yosemite. Why do people without this problem bother to say it does not work when it does? Or say it's the same, when it's not.

    The image used by Yosemite looks like an "eject" image, which threw me. This is in fact the same /kind/ of thing we had to do in previous OSs, but then, merely selecting the device offered the same sub menu. Now you have to click a button that looks like it will unmount the device.
