How do I prevent iPhoto from opening when I don't want my iPod synched?

Whenever I connect my iPod Touch to my computer, iPhoto automatically opens - even though I have specified that I do not want my photos synced. In the dock, I do not have iPhoto set to open automatically either. What SHOULD be happening, is that iTunes should open - not iPhoto.


Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

If you don't want iPhoto to start go to the iPhoto menu item and select Preferences. In the General Tab change the "Connecting camera opens:" setting.


iPhoto is starting because to it your iPod looks like a camera with pictures on it. This has nothing to do with iTunes Syncing.
