Title: Lightroom 1.1 start up
Post by: Calder on August 12, 2007, 05:36:32 pm

I have LIGHTROOM 1.1 installed on my PC.
Everything seems to work fine and I'm learning how to use it.

One thing I would like to change is to stop it starting up
everytime I insert a CF card in my reader.  I dont always
wish to start my files in LR.

Is there a way I could stop this happening so enabling me to choose
the program I wish to open my files please?

Its not only my CF card but also my all in one printer which triggers LR to start up.

??????????

Hi Henk,

Weird goings on a la LR.  Sorry to hear both you Cf card and your
printer trigger LR.

I find this a nuisance and there must be a way to stop it taking control?
Beats me, wish I knew?

Hello there

Have you tried unticking the box "show import dialog when a memory card is detected" On the Import tab in preferences?

Best wishes

Hello Sid,

That did the trick!  Unticked the 'show import dialog etc...'
then inserted a CF card and LR behaved itself and did not 'take over'
at start up.

You're a true star Sid, and many thanks for your kind assitance.

Regards,

Rob
