Whenever I connect my iPhone to my Mac (Lion), the Image capture app starts.

How do I stop this?

Image capture doesn't have any preferences.

Found it!

In Image Capture there's a section on the bottom-left. Make sure the iPhone is selected, otherwise the bottom settings will not appear.

Use iPhoto's preferences (General tab, the "Connecting camera opens" setting).

1I don't have iPhoto, this is the exact answer I've found tens of times on google, but I don't have iPhoto :( – user13727 – 2012-01-26T13:04:32.473

1Users don't necessarily have iPhoto installed – Ovesh – 2012-11-22T02:37:31.480

2Every new Mac comes with iPhoto installed, and has done for several years, so by now there are very few users without iPhoto. – Mike Scott – 2012-11-22T06:52:39.563
