★ Stop Apple Photos from Auto Launching in OS X with One Command

Op PetaPixel een handige tip om te voorkomen dat de Foto’s app op de Mac automatisch wordt gelanceerd zodra een iPhone of iPad wordt aangesloten.

If you’re a Mac user and are annoyed that OS X automatically launches Apple Photos every time you connect a device or insert a memory card, there’s good news for you: you can disable the program from launching for all devices with a single command.
Melbourne-based photographer Ben Fon tells PetaPixel that all you need to do is Open up Terminal, and enter the following line:
defaults -currentHost write com.apple.ImageCapture disableHotPlug -bool YES
Then press Enter.

Voila! Apple Photos should stay closed now when you need to transfer photos onto your computer.

If you would like to re-enable the auto launching function in the future, simply open up Terminal again and switch the YES to a NO with this line:
defaults -currentHost write com.apple.ImageCapture disableHotPlug -bool NO
