I don’t actually plug my iPhone into my computer that often, but when I do iPhoto always pops up. I like using iPhoto to import photos from it, but don’t want it to auto load. But I do like it when iPhoto autostarts when I plug in my proper digital camera.
37 signals has a solution that involves AppleScript, but I’m wondering if there is a simpler solution? Some setting that I’m missing in my haste and annoyance?

Have laptop. Will travel. This site is for the solo and small firm mobile legal professional on both sides of the Atlantic -- including barristers, advocates, lawyers, attorneys, and solicitors of all stripes.
Laptop legal covers legal practice management for people who are in charge of it all -- marketing and rainmaking, web presence, client development, and of course, advising on the law. I like to use a mac and write about their use for legal professionals, but this site isn't limited by OS and if I see a useful tool, I'll write about it. Solutions for solo and small firms up to 25 people.
I'm an American lawyer living in the United Kingdom working as a legal consultant and IP strategist for universities, the public sector, and private clients. I've been to 36 US states and 12 countries, and am already on track to add a whole lot more. I still haven't been to Canada, but make me an offer and I'll be there.
I've worked on my laptop in planes, trains, and automobiles, in coffee shops, pubs, bars, and restaurants, in libraries and in parks. You'll probably find me looking for a power outlet and an open wireless network.

in iphoto go to preferences>general> “when connecting camera” –> select No application
done and done…
Thanks Erik – the trick I’m aiming for is to actually have iPhoto automatically connect when I plug in my actual camera, but not when I plug in the iPhone. Setting it to “No application” means that iPhoto doesn’t connect when any camera / device is connected.
